The charred remains of a Joshua tree forest under a purple twilight. In 2020 over 43,000 acres of Joshua trees were incinerated during a devastating wildfire, one of the largest to ever hit the area. The aftermath was this stark scene in an already sparse desert. Unlike most plants and trees, Joshua trees are limited in their future distribution. Over 10,000 years ago when giant sloths roamed the Earth, these animals would eat the fruit of J-Trees- as they would migrate around and leave droppings behind, Joshua tree seeds were distributed. Today, without human intervention, it is near impossible for these trees to expand into new territory, making situations like this one here all the more impactful.

New anti-hurricane technology
PCT/SK2006/000003 (WO/2006/085830) A METHOD OF AND A DEVICE FOR THE REDUCTION OF TROPICAL CYCLONES DESTRUCTIVE FORCE
documents - www.wipo.int/pctdb/en/wo.jsp?wo=2006085830
THE INVENTION relates to a method of suppressing the tropical cyclones’ destructive force characterised in that the ascendant speed of wind in a tropical cyclone’s eyewall is reduced by sea water pumped on-site from under the sea surface above the sea surface and diffused in the wind at the bottom of such tropical cyclone in/near its eyewall. The invention also describes a facility for the application of said method.

Heidelberg Project - Detroit, MI
The Heidelberg Project is an outdoor art project in the McDougall-Hunt neighborhood on Detroit's east side, just north of the city's historically African-American Black Bottom area. It was created in 1986 by the artist Tyree Guyton, who was assisted by his wife, Karen, and grandfather Sam Mackey. The Heidelberg Project is in part a political protest, as Tyree Guyton's childhood neighborhood began to deteriorate after the 1967 riots. Guyton described coming back to Heidelberg Street after serving in the Army; he was astonished to see that the surrounding neighborhood looked as if "a bomb went off".
At first, the project consisted of his painting a series of houses on Detroit's Heidelberg Street with bright dots of many colors and attaching salvaged items to the houses. It was a constantly evolving work that transformed a hard-core inner city neighborhood where people were afraid to walk, even in daytime, into one in which neighbors took pride and where visitors were many and welcomed.[citation needed] Despite the area being characterized by high levels of blight and poverty, the evolving art work grew Tyree Guyton worked on the Heidelberg Project daily with the children on the block. He and director Jenenne Whitfield gave lectures and workshops on the project around the country. Their main goal was to develop the Heidelberg Project into the city's first indoor and outdoor museum, complete with an artists' colony, creative art center, community garden, amphitheater, and more. In 2005 the Heidelberg Project was awarded the Rudy Bruner Award for Urban Excellence silver medal.
