JB - Its all in your head · Aren’t Humans The Wildest Of Them All? - JBIn a world where foxes strut like they own the streets and pigeons are chaos connoisseurs, we humans seem a bit wild ourselves—arguing over parking while our cockapoo steals socks. Who's truly wild?
If we don't adapt to a simple #lifestyle, very soon all our #mountains will be covered with #concrete. Though these colorful buildings look beautiful from far, it's pathetic to live in those areas. So, next time try #camping and support #ecotourism. Don't encourage builders to build hotels everywhere.

Are plants intelligent? It's not so simple! 
Cornell researchers explore how goldenrod adapts to neighbors & threats, challenging our definition of intelligence. Plants might be smarter than we think!

Cornell ChronicleAre plants intelligent? It depends on the definition | Cornell ChronicleChemical ecologist Andre Kessler makes an argument for plant intelligence, citing goldenrod's flexible, real-time, adaptive responses when eaten.
Shrub or bush? The difference isn't clear-cut! Generally, bushes are a type of shrub, but not all shrubs are bushes. Size, shape, and growth habits can help distinguish them. Learn more about these versatile woody plants that add structure and beauty to your garden! #GardeningTips #PlantFacts

From 2023: #OneidaNation's #environmental restoration project to receive funding in proposed [#Wisconsin] state budget
#Wildrice, or manoomin in #Ojibwe, is central to Ojibwe identity and is part of the culture’s migration story.

ONEIDA – "Part of Gov. #TonyEvers’ proposed budget includes $875,000 to help fund the Oneida Nation’s environmental restoration project on the reservation.
"Over the past year, the tribe has restored about 3,000 acres of #wetlands, #grasslands, #prairies and #forests on the reservation.
"The governor’s budget includes an annual investment of $175,000 for five years for continuing the Oneida Nation’s #HabitatRestoration work and bird monitoring project just west of #GreenBay.
"'We know that #nature can provide for itself if allowed to. A years-long restoration of Oneida’s lands in Northeastern Wisconsin has led to improvements in water quality and the return of #wildlife,' said Oneida Chairman Tehassi Hill in a statement. 'We appreciate Governor Evers for supporting our work to restore and protect Wisconsin’s natural spaces.'
"The Oneida Nation also started a bird monitoring project on its restoration sites in coordination with the Northeastern Wisconsin #Audubon Society and UW-Green Bay’s Cofrin Center for Biodiversity to research how birds are responding to the tribe’s conservation efforts.
"'We’ve witnessed firsthand as state-threatened bird species, like the #HenslowsSparrow, have returned to restored Oneida Nation lands, an incredible testament to the importance of this restoration work,' said Erin Giese, president of the Northeastern Wisconsin Audubon Society, in a statement.
[...]
"Evers’ budget proposal also includes a $200,000 investment in restoring and protecting natural wild rice areas in Wisconsin.
"Experts say wild rice is an essential food source for many of the #MigratorBirds in the area, including many species of #ducks, #pheasants, #owls, #cranes, #geese and #songbirds.
"The plants also help to improve the #environment.
"'Emergent plants, including wild rice, help promote #water quality through the filtering and storage of nutrients and slow down wave action in the #CoastalWetlands of Green Bay,' said Dr. Amy Carrozzino-Lyon, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay restoration project manager in the natural and applied sciences department. 'A diversity of native wetland plants helps the community function at its best.'"

States Are Eyeing Bird-Friendly #Wetlands to Help Rid the #GreatLakes of #ToxicAlgae
"The #OneidaNation has restored wetlands that help to improve water quality in Wisconsin’s Green Bay while creating valuable habitat that attracts many birds."
Words by Andy McGlashen

"In the ongoing effort to bring the problem under control, the region’s leaders are increasingly reaching for a primitive but proven tool for capturing and cleaning water before it enters the lake: wetlands. No one believes that #swamps and marshes alone can starve the algae blooms, but experts say they are an important part of the solution. 'Wetlands are wonderful filtration systems,' says Richard Stumpf, an oceanographer with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric administration who monitors #algae outbreaks. And because wetlands around the Great Lakes offer vital habitat where birds can rest during migration or raise their young, restoring them not only improves water quality but also brightens the outlook for vulnerable avian species.
“'There’s momentum building behind #NatureBasedSolutions,' says Kyle Rorah, regional director of public policy for Ducks Unlimited. 'There’s a huge opportunity to get serious about taking a chunk out of the problem.'"

Thousands of people marched on London streets for nature, but none of the mainstream media covered it in the UK.
No wonder why some fractions of protesters choose to spray cornflower-based colours on famous paintings and monuments. It helps them to get noticed.
The #nature cure: how time #outdoors transforms our #memory, #imagination and #logic
Without engaging with #NaturalEnvironments, our #brains cease to work well. As the new field of environmental neuroscience proves, exposure to nature isn’t a luxury – it’s a necessity

"You are probably aware of studies showing that green (#vegetated) and blue (moving #water) environments are associated with a reduction in stress, improved mood, more positive emotions and decreases in anxiety and rumination. But there is growing evidence that nature exposure also benefits cognitive function – all the processes involved in gaining knowledge and understanding, including perception, memory, reasoning, judgment, imagination and problem-solving. One study found that after just 40 seconds of looking out at a green roof, subjects made fewer mistakes in a test than when they looked at a concrete one."
