Red meat production accounts for 30% of global food-related emissions but generates only 5% of dietary calories or 2% of the global protein supply. That's why Project Drawdown researcher @enviroem.bsky.social calls it the coal of the food system: https://bit.ly/4x2yGnz

I am relatively sure that this data is not published due to (cyber) safety concerns in Germany.

The AI build-out is economically impossible, inherently wrong when we should be plunging our emissions, and culturally unpopular, yet made to be inevitable. eraldkolasi.substack.com/p/the-global...

Compared with life before ~ 1945, most older people in the Global North today, me included, (apart people from conflict areas) have never before been asked to make significant life style changes. That is what we are seeing, but it does not mean that they cannot bring about change /adapt.

Funny story – a friend brought me a 250-litre 'air' tank as scrap because I needed some rear ballast for the tractor. He said, ‘You can weld along the seams.’ It’s a good thing I had a second look – it turned out to be a liquid gas tank that was still half full. Fossil fuels kill.

It's such a sacrifice to live in a straw house, having to harvest energy for transport and heating and we have no meat on the table!

Some people like to see things burn, even if they get hurt, the idea here is that the other suffer as well. It is important to rule this out, that is why we need an #AfDVerbot in Germany.

Here are a few examples of extremely easy lifestyle changes: - vegetarian diet - heating/cooling with a cheap AC in a detached house - driving electric without a 1:1 replacement of everything - be nicer to people around you, solve problems - no more flights

Mainstream political parties thrive on telling people that they don’t need to change. Whilst this is a clever way to get elected, it’s very bad for societies in times of change. Incidentally, people are extremely adaptable – that’s our superpower.

What makes changing lifestyles hard is the narrative that it's hard to change a lifestyle.

Amazing how the earth + seeds make building materials including soundproof insulation with a little sun and rain. #farmland #ontario #greenbuilding #strawbale #stickbuild

Worth a watch: Full in situ build video of an all around #strawbale insulated modern cabin with screw piles, shou sugi ban, suspended floor. Not prefabricated. Straw density is somewhat on the low end, hence ease of installation. #strawhouse #strawbuilding youtu.be/9LjVkvX0W9A?...

Explainer: this is an extreme renovation because they can. You can also see this as an opportunity for massive CARBON STORAGE. These are huge and very tight bales , 70cm. The typical #strawbale is 36cm over here and this is usually plenty good enough to meet #passivehouse insulation for retrofits.

Typcial rounded window detail on many #strawbale buildings in Germany. 1. 4 storey multifamily #strawhouse almost finished. 2. Learn it in our workshops biwena.de 3. Exxample after 13 years in use, untreated wood. 4. How it's done, shown in our exhibition. #strawbuilding #regenerativeconstrcution

I asked AI: What is the best argument for #strawbale construction when you consider all the global problems? It made🧵6 points 📸 @ecococon.bsky.social highest #strawbuilding #strawhouse in the making at the moment.

"Feels like Heimat" Erbseners harvested their own building materials and DIY'd a load-bearing jumbo #strawbale community house, together. That's the regeneration spirit: Take people with you, local, rural - urban empowerment. #strawhouse #strawbuilding #bauwende www.ndr.de/fernsehen/se...

It's not extra, it's here. It's good enough for the best housing.
