164,282 notes February 20, 2022 dr-otter:guerrillatech:Draining and paving wetlands is just about one of the worst ideas ever. When water can disperse along a winding waterway into soft soil it slows it’s movement way down. Slow water deposits sediment instead of eroding it. Plants can grow in it that clean the water and trap more sediment. That increased soil absorbs and slows extra water when there’s a larger rain than usual and buffers the effects of even torrential storms.Fast, straight waterways remove soil, and don’t give water a chance to soak in. Often insult is added to injury by paving and armoring the banks (ostensibly to reduce erosion) removing any possibility of absorbing and slowing extra water. Any increase in precipitation upstream means a higher water level. A storm means catastrophic flooding. Draining wetlands doesn’t make more “usable” land, it sets the stage for tragedies.(via glumshoe)

121 notes January 30, 2022 twloha:“In the history of the world, in all the people in it now, just one of them is you. You will share pieces of yourself with many people, enough strings to tie the world together that you cannot be alone, but you are still the only person in the whole world who is you. The odds of that are so significant, so important, they read like a love letter from the Creator to you. And that’s your power, your lifeline, your reason. I know it hurts—but it is worth living through so that you can change this place with the fingerprint of your life.” — Jo Reeves, “You Absolutely Are Special”
