I created some new photo art this morning. 2 new pieces; 1 b/w piece here.
They're visual contrasts between devastating logging #clearcuts & world famous #OldGrowth tree, Big Lonely Doug. These creations are sparked by my lifelong love of ancient #forests & the need to keep protecting them, against government lies & #ecocide industry greed.
The #UNESCO site is one of Vietnam's most popular #TouristDestinations, with more than seven million people visiting its blue-green waters & rainforest-topped limestone islands last year.
The annual wildfire season in Canada is coming to an end. Or, anyway, it should be by now.
But 2023 is unlike any other year. As of yesterday, there were more than 900 fires still burning, over half of them out of control.
Look at the area burned in the second graph below. The damage to wildlife is literally incalculable. Greenhouse gas emissions from all of these fires is off the charts.
Sure, some reply guy will tell you that forest fires are normal and natural and necessary. But not like this. What we’re seeing this year is an unnatural catastrophe caused by human industry — by the oil companies, their financiers, and the governments that support and subsidize them.

As #GretaThunberg courageously takes the lead on travelling to #Kyiv to meet President #Zelenskyy and speaking out about the #ecocide caused by #RussianTerrorists, it is a good time to remind ourselves that letting rashists get away with it will make it much, much worse, and we will ALL suffer as a consequence of accelerating natural disasters.
*Never forget this CEO wanker worked for #Exxon prior & has a long history of promoting rampant #ecocide & is OK continuing to carry out more #CrimesAgainstHumanity 🤑
A #MontgomeryCounty#CircuitCourt judge signed an order on Nov. 2 imposing #injunctions against six defendants & #pipeline#protesters in a #lawsuit brought by Mountain Valley Pipeline (MVP), LLC, a joint venture between five fossil fuel companies: Equitrans Midstream Partners, LP, NextEra Energy Capital, Inc., Con Edison Transmission, Inc., WGL Midstream, and RGC Midstream, LLC
The former federal leader of the Greens & six supporters spent Sunday night at a #logging site in the Styx Valley after harvesting machines moved in about a week ago.
