A rain garden captures stormwater runoff pollution at the Knollwood Life Plan Community in Northwest Washington, D.C., on July 17, 2024. The retirement community installed the example of green infrastructure in partnership with District Stormwater. The rain garden, bordering the Knollwood parking lot, is estimated to capture 2.2 million gallons of runoff annually, filtering it using nature-based processes before it reaches Rock Creek, the Potomac River, and ultimately the Chesapeake Bay. The new rain garden is approximately 4,700 square feet and captures runoff from 1.6 acres of impervious surface. It includes a variety of native and flowering plants that will provide habitat and food for pollinators. (Photo by Rhiannon Johnston/Chesapeake Bay Program)

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!

Lake Mackay is a dry lakebed in Western Australia. Lake Mackay measures approximately 100 kilometers in diameter.
Darker areas indicate algae, some moisture within the soils of the dry lake, and the lowest elevations where water pools.
Due to the arid environment, salts and other minerals are carried to the surface via capillary action caused by evaporation producing the white reflective surface.
This photograph documents the red appearance of the dry parts of Western Australia’s Great Sandy Desert next to brilliant white salt and meager blue moisture.
Co-ordinates off GPS- but my battery was running low so unlikely to be accurate.
