Melbourne, Environment Victoria and friends
Over the coming few weeks, as the price on pollution is debated in Parliament, Victorian communities will come together to take part in the Earth Relay - a series of actions to symbolise support for action on climate change.
Like the passage of the Olympic flame to the site of the Olympic Games, communities across Victoria will be passing a human sized earth globe from suburb to suburb and town to town. And after travelling across the state, the dome will be taken to Parliament House, Canberra to send the Victorian community’s message of hope for the future.
So get involved in this important moment in history. Hop here to find out when the when the Earth Relay is coming to a suburb or town near you > www.environmentvictoria.org.au/earth-relay

This is another environment study. I have been busy with another projetct that I can't show here. So I imported one of the characters into this environment just for fun.
The trail is some 15 km from Platres and between the villages of Milikouri, Kaminaria and Ayios Nicolaos. A fantastic valley with great hiking and mountain biking (and photo safaris) possibilities. The easiest way to enter the valley is from the south side, coming from Kelephos venetian bridge or from Kaminaria village. Hiking is on the dirt road in the valley. The valley begins where the river Diarizos (which means 2 roots) is born. Unfortunately in summer you may meet, while you hike, a few cars driving in the valley. One can divide the route into 2 parts, the one from the junction with the road that comes from the village of Milikouri, and all the way to the root of the river (north) and the other part from the junction to the south. The south part is the most interesting and it is about 7 km long, and very easy for walking or mountain biking. From the junction and about 1.5 km to the north you can find the Komitidji picnic area, while from the junction and about 2 km on the south part of the trail you can find a spring. In the valley you will see many plane trees, ferns, pine trees and fig trees, while it is likely to see the elusive moufflon early in the morning or late in the afternoon.

Many people confuse the anole with the chameleon because both can change color. The same anole can be brown or green, depending on its surroundings and mood. When two anoles meet, they usually turn green and puff up their throats; if one doesn’t back down, a fight will sometimes follow. Photo courtesy National Park Service.

August. Having enough air in your tires, helps to go more miles with less gas, the same applies to the empty trunk, the lighter the car the more miles you go.

Philadelphia
Development in Philly is out of control, worsening conditions for working class people & the environment. Hundreds of community activists took to the streets to set the tone for Philly's 2023 election: anyone running for mayor or city council better have policy solutions for ensuring long-term, working class residents have a place in this city and that Philly is truly tackling and prepared for the climate crisis.
The march was organized by community groups fighting for land justice across our city, including Philly Thrive, Sunrise Movement, VietLead, Save UCTownhomes, Save the Meadows, Cobbs Creek EJ, and more!
