This lovely but very invasive wetland plant was blooming everywhere in the Horicon Marsh. Not native to Wisconsin, its rapid spread and growth is endangering the native plant species not only in this marsh, but all across the whole U.S. except for Florida.
In fact, the day I was visiting and photographing, Horicon Marsh Volunteers were hand digging out these plants wherever they saw one that was accessible. While many gardeners would love to have this beautiful plant in their garden and landscape, it is against the law to own and grow it due to its destructive effect on the native vegetation and ecosystem balance.

ours is a school bus, a veggie oil schoolbus, thinking of what pat said earlier about the way of life being destructive unsustainable, feeling that deeply in most of north america, europe, people in our awareness of humanity western civilization, is not humanity don't believe that we can ever go back, we need new ways to sustain ourselves, k-cote being that opportunity to do it and show others it can be done. in the school bus tradition, running on gas but eventually that will run out, so veggie oil and elbow grease and fat of the land, trash the world throws away that powers our education mobile! the resources are there, community is there, just takes a focused push in the right direction, the steering wheel we dodge bureaucrats, or run them down! some of the labeling elaborates on the frame of the bus, symbolizing the way a community shelters and supports each other, support for complete support, cant live unless help everyone. only been to a couple of weekends and met few staff and board, still very new, so don't know how big or influential it is in peoples lives individually, but see as possibilities could be SO STRONG that way, made of steel, the door a retreat centre, inviting newcomers to come and be on board, look around, and think geez? didn't think you could run on veggie oil, and go home and think about it some more. the windows, can't be blackened, the windows we see the new ideas, new initiatives, weed out the ones that don't work, "oh that idea can make us more efficient", bring it on board. that's it for labeling, except for the point of who it carries... it carries each other, supporting each other, people are there because they want to be there. you can't come in and be held by hand, we can show you the door, show you the possibilities, but can't support people, it's a two way street, everyone has to participate or it doesn't work, it ties in with the engine, only way it works is if people see the opportunity for it and say DO IT community initiative, like this what do we want, how are we going to get there, who going to do it? ok let's do it. that's the Kimbercote Express.
A Port Captain in Indonesia's North Maluku province discusses destructive fishing practices with the SEA Impact Evaluation team.
The Sustainable Ecosystems Advanced Project (SEA) project's overall objective is improved conservation and management of Indonesia’s marine biodiversity through improved capacity and practical application of marine conservation and sustainable fisheries management. To evaluate the impact of SEA, USAID/Indonesia is supporting a rigorous impact evaluation (IE) that will focus primarily on measuring the impact of project activities implemented at the community or village level, including programming approaches designed to create demand for biodiversity conservation and sustainable fisheries, improve ecosystem management, and increase incentives for marine stewardship.

This mural is in downtown Cincinnati - on the Mainstay Rock Bar building at 5th and Plum. It was created by Portuguese street artist, Alexandre Farto, better known as Vhils.
He did an artist in residency at the BLDG gallery in Covington. It took him around 12 hours to complete this mural. Vhils takes street art to a whole new level with his deconstructed street portraits. He creates striking multi-textural faces in decaying brick walls by meticulously chipping away at the wall’s weathered layers.

Other than my other cat, Amelia. She is also the MOST destructive cat in the world. I know it doesn't look like he's doing anything destructive, but wait. Just knowing that he can get up here is going to make me lose hours upon hours of sleep. I just KNOW he's planning something evil.

And with this, I end my destructive reign. Thanks for putting up with me, followers, and thanks for letting me be a one day #instaceleb @rdubaton. Tomorrow I surrender the baton to @paigederouin. You may be asking “why coffee so late?” Well, I’m trying to grind hard and get this PhD (also the only beer we have is warm keg PBR). One of the bagillion things I’m working on right now is curriculum development for @girls.talk.math, a two week free summer camp for high school girls, aimed at getting girls to considers careers in mathematics and combat the barriers that has herstorically stymied such efforts. Two amazing students in my PhD program started the camp last summer with a grant from the MAA, and the success of the camp had been awesome. ✌️ out, 🎸 on.

It isn't often that a destructive wildfire comes so close to threatening your home and livelihood, but today, was one of those days.
Earlier this afternoon, I awoke from a mid-afternoon nap to the sound of a loud helicopter flying unusually low over the house. It woke me to the point where I couldn't go back to sleep, so I checked Facebook, only to see a post from my next door neighbor alerting us to the smell of smoke and a very large cloud behind the house.
Right away, I soon discovered that a large fire erupted less than two miles away, and placed all of Lake Limerick under an evacuation advisory. Thankfully, we were not evacuated, but almost a thousand Sheltonians have been.
I began taking these about an hour after the fire began, with the last photo taken approximately seven hours later. It is presently estimated at nearly 300 acres, with 0% containment.
Let's keep all those affected in our thoughts tonight.
Worthy to note:
This fire burned in an area which previously burned in October, 2012. Those photos can be seen here:

Japanese beetles are invasive and highly destructive in the US. This one was eating a yellow eveningprimrose flower and pooping yellow poop!
The destructive cold has stayed away long enough for the aloes to develop beautifully; an unexpected 44mm of rain last night intensified colours. But as soon as the skies clear I expect to find the aloe n the right badly frosted. Only 3 times in 20 years have the aloes gone full cycle without damage - but they are worth the risk!
an unused cover because I couldn't get it to look right with the text, buuuuuut......still looks pretty neat. So it's up here.

About my pictures:
Since 2014 I've been documenting the daily, destructive, poisonous chemtrail activity in the Dayton, Ohio area -- home of the notorious Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (visited by every important person on Earth, and even a few Aliens ;-) -- and apparently from my photo and video documentation, Chemtrail Central. This area has been getting chemtrailed on a massive, daily basis and is being conducted, as they say, “in plain sight”. I've got over 10,000 high-resolution pictures already uploaded and available for free on Flickr, with thousands more on the way:

Indiana is less destructive most days but I still have to be very careful with the blinds, shut all doors and make sure nothing we don't mind destroying is on the floor as he may decide to chew it, rip it or do some damage. He has chew toys and stuffed toys and balls. Jordi is there ot play with but nope he stills gets into everything.

This guy I can do without. It is a Sri Lankan Weevil. An invasive and destructive species that devours the leaves of fruit and ornamental trees. They have no natural predators here in So. Florida and they are immune to most pesticides except powerful systemic poisons that I refuse to use on my fruit trees. The only way I have found to control them is to crush them one-by-one, but since they breed like rabbits it is a never ending chore. I keep telling myself that they are on my trees for positive reasons (maybe to thin the dense foliage so that more air will circulate). For now they will thrive. lee.ifas.ufl.edu/Hort/UsefulLawnandGardenResources/SriLan...

This area has been getting chemtrailed on a massive, daily basis and is being conducted, as they say, “in plain sight”.
However, this area isn’t special in that regard. The massive chemtrailing is going on across the USA (and other countries), as evidenced in abundance on FlickR and many other sites. This incredible not-so-secret Government program, which itself is expensive and dangerous, spoils not only blue skies, but poisons our air, water and soil to unknown levels. Regardless of the purpose, weather control/weather as a weapon/mind control, it really amounts to a crime against humanity in my opinion.
In response, I have posted thousands of full-resolution images (15,000+!), documenting the overwhelming evidence of this crime on Flickr:
www.flickr.com/photos/133042043@N04/albums
I have additional Chemtrail videos posted on:

And to help generate interest, further study and assist in research, I am designating all my chemtrail pictures uploaded to Flickr (under “Chem Trailchaser”) as CC0 — Creative Commons Zero.
This removes my copyright and releases them into the Public Domain, which means that any of my photos designated CC0, can be used, without restriction or attribution, for any use. Isn’t that awesome?

I have, [rather destructively], maximized contrast and fiddled the brightness to get this effect. Is it still an acceptable photo although it now looks like a drawing? Wonder what you think? I like the look myself.
The world is full of amazing things - we would need an eternity to begin to fully experience it.
