They are in millions but fast disappearing. The plateau of Kaas is loosing it's glory. With the number of people visiting this place each year rising exponentially there are hardly any measures been taken to control the mass who have actually got nothing to do with the ecosystem part of this sensitive valley. I have seen people playing ball games and walking at will over these delicate plants.

Fishing production dramatically increase through the century peaking in late 1980s. At this time there were major declines in several fish populations in different areas of the world. The catch reported by governments is in some cases adjusted to correct for likely errors in data.

Spotted during a surveillance flight Monday, manatees are taking refuge from the cold weather in a mitigation feature built by SFWMD just south of Port of the Islands in Collier County.
Completed in April 2016, the three deep pools ensure the local manatee population continues to have a warm water refuge in the Port of the Islands area that’s compatible with restoration efforts at Picayune Strand. When complete, the CERP project will re-establish a more natural flow of water to 55,000 acres of wetlands and uplands in the Western Everglades.

Spent all day on a marathon photo shoot. 15 hours Sunrise to Sunset. 15 photo locations. Shot 170 images. Hauled 25 pounds of photo gear in the car, then never switched from the 18-135 Canon zoom I use 90 percent of the time.
Drove 320 miles in the Colorado mountains with Debbie (who painted) and Poppyseed (who slept).
Light overcast, great for driving. Stay tuned for the rest of the trip over the next week or so.

The Fogponic Grow Box is an automated, self contained, plant ecosystem. The Grow Box is a fogponic plant box within a humidity and temperature monitored box. The underside of the top lid has strips of LEDs in both blue and red to promote root growth and some flowering effects. The box should require low amounts of additional sun light and minimally impact the surrounding environment.
The grow system suspends mesh plastic pots so roots can reach mist generated by an ultrasonic mister sitting a few inches above water mixed with hydroponic grow solution. Timers turn everything on and off. Initial tests average around a $1.00 a month to run the system 24 hours a day.
I'm testing sprouting four pots of kale.

This artistic provocation seeks to estimate the orders of magnitude of critical ecosystem services that are fundamental to all planetary life processes.
It is common to describe our relationships with society, the world, and the biosphere with metaphors from economics, which has specific understandings of value. Today’s prevailing economic conventions are unable to recognise the inherent value of the ecosystems on which all life depends. In cultures overdetermined by concepts from economics, we are left without adequate discursive instruments to address the importance of ecosystem contributions to life on Earth socially or politically.
This experiment consists of 1 square meter of wheat, cultivated in a closed environment. Critical inputs such as water, light, heat, and nutrients are measured, monitored and displayed for the public. This procedure makes the immense scale of ecosystem contributions palpable and provides a speculative reference for a reckoning of the undervalued and over-exploited “work of the biosphere.”

SAVANNAH, Ga. – Members of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Savannah District gave presentations to 120 third graders at Marshpoint Elementary about the Corps' Regulatory Program. Regulatory Specialist Brian Moore used an interactive floodplain model to demonstrate how wetlands absorb storm water and filter drinking water. He also explained the Corps of Engineers' role in issuing permits for developers or citizens who want to build projects on or near streams and wetlands. Regulatory Specialist Donald Hendrix showed the students a variety of animal items—snake skins, furs, deer antlers, and sharks teeth—to demonstrate the various animals and habitat within Georgia. The visit was part of a unit of study about Georgia's ecosystems, natural resources, and conservation efforts. USACE photo by George Jumara.
