The whole world is getting into motion for Moving Planet -- millions of people are biking, skating, marching and embodying a beautiful array of creative ways to get moving without fossil fuels. www.moving-planet.org

My visit was a little early but it was a decent day and the colours were beginning to change. The risk was that if I left in any later the weather was about to change and high winds were due to hit the UK.
Thank you for looking and for any comments you may leave.

My roses were yellow but now there’s another plant with red roses. How can I dig out that red flowered plant? I have red rose bushes that are spindly and the leaves drop off. How can I make them healthy? (Photos illustrating a study guide for gardener friends. Comments blocked for this reason.)

In my art work Change I used acrylics on canvas. I tried to create a real sense of emotion and in a way a person who has hit a wall and ready to move on. The naked bare trees shows a change in seasons like autumn passing into winter, the beginning of something new even though appearing dead. My work symbolize the ability to survive harsh seasons/harsh times. I find my work relates to my historical influence Kate Zambrano, no busy canvas just simplistically, dark and deep creating a sense of curiosity with a hint of beauty.

Hi,
Thanks for all of the support! We used the news release template that you provided and we had a facebook event. No response form the media outlets that we emailed but we had 5 people out and handed out a bunch of leaflets asking people to call or email Mr. Sajjan. We also delivered 120 signatures on a petition asking the MP to cancel Kinder Morgan. Over all, a modest success!
I have attached a photo.
Cheers,
Bradley

Just love the lovely, soft colour blend on this leaf. Sometimes individual leaves on the forest floor simply catch the eye for their own unique beauty. Found on a local bush walk in the lower Blue Mountains, NSW.
I spied this very eye-catching "parking meter" in Laguna Beach, California. Come to find that it was in fact a change meter to collect change for the homeless. To learn more, check out this website: www.change4homeless.com/

Here's a closer look at that power plant on the opposite shore of Cayuga Lake, 4.2 miles north of where I was standing in Taughannock Falls State Park as the Google Earth line lies. This is a coal-fired plant built in 1955 with a 323-megawatt (MW) capacity, and it supplied a significant percentage of the electricity used in central New York for a little more than 50 years. The company that built it sold it in 1999, but the company that bought it went bankrupt 12 years later, so somebody else bought it at fire sale prices and came up with a plan to convert it from coal to natural gas.
This wasn't a unique plan. According to the internet, since 2011, about a third of the nation's 360-someodd coal-fired power plants have converted to natural gas in response to stricter environmental controls coupled with a sharp drop in natural gas prices thanks to advances in gas production technologies. (Think fracking.) The benefit to the world at large from this is that electricity is cheaper to produce with natural gas, natural gas production isn't as environmentally destructive (mostly), and natural gas power plants emit about 40% as much carbon per unit of electricity as coal.
The downside is that natural gas is still a fossil fuel, and though its impact on the environment is considerably less than coal, it's still not nothing, and in some places it can be pretty destructive. In short, the power doesn't come without consequence, and the people of New York wanted consequence-free power. The people living around the Finger Lakes protested the conversion, and New York Governor Andrew Cuomo put a stop to it. He wanted New York to be free of fossil fuels by 2050, and he thought a natural gas conversion would slow that transition down. The result of the denied permits was that the Cayuga Lake Power Plant shut down for good in 2019.
So, does this qualify as an environmental win? I wouldn't be so fast. Even if you ignore what the removal of 323 MW from New York's electricity supply does to the grid and where the state might be turning to make up for the loss, there's the question of what happens to the plant itself. The company that bought this plant in 2011 has no interest in just leaving the plant here to rot, so they decided to convert the property into a server farm devoted to mining cryptocurrencies. You know, bitcoin and ethereum and other digital Ponzi schemes. They wouldn't be producing any power here, but a server farm consumes an enormous amount of electricity, and a shuttered power plant already has all the transformers and transmission lines a server farm needs to handle all that. The internet quotes local officials as saying this server farm would use enough electricity to power 16,400 homes. I work that out to a constant draw of about 20 MW.
This has inspired the people of New York to step back and say, "No, wait ... that's not what we meant," because if there's a more pointless use of 20 MW (12 of which would be produced by a natural gas plant just like what they don't have here) than the invention of fake internet money on an increasingly overburdened grid, I can't think of what it'd be. The last report I saw in my quick internet survey about this was published in January, though, and the last eight months have seen a precipitous collapse in the price of tulips ... er, I mean cryptomoney, so I don't know if this is still a thing or not.

If I were visiting grandkids I would have done a daiper change, but I am visiting my mother. We saw this sign as we went out for lunch.

On December 12 2009, while the COP15 climate negotiations were taking place in Copenhagen, around the globe people protested for an ambitious and fair climate treaty. These are photos from the Melbourne Walk against Warming.
According to the ABC the Nature Conservation Council estimated 40,000 people took part in the march. Activists congregated in front of the State Library where speeches ocurred before marching down Swanston Street through Melbourne's CBD to Princes Bridge, where they formed a human sign to call for more meaningful action on climate change.

My stepfather had a stroke a few months ago. He's in a nursing home now and will most likely spend the rest of his life there. I didn't grow up with him, he and my mom married years and years after my parents divorce and therefore have never been really close to him but he's a good man and I feel sad for him. He and my mom divorced a few years ago but remain friends and he's my two younger sisters' father.
When I visited home last month my mom had alot of his things in her garage as his house had to be sold. There was a box overflowing with pieces of wood from his many projects and this was one of those pieces. One of his favorite hobbies was to collect logs, branches, any piece of found wood that he could. He got them from along the Ohio River, around town and so on. He would cut the pieces into smaller pieces and sand them over and over until they were as smooth as silk. You really have to see and feel one of his pieces in person to truly appreciate it, they're just amazing. I'm so happy to have a few of these now with me. To know that something that one person loved and treasured can have a new life with someone else is a good thing I think.

Happy Purple Tuesday
Fall always brings out the Morning Glories and the English Ivy Flowers. The Ivy will produce these yellow-green umbels. They are very high in sweet nectar. The insects love them. These umbels will last until late Autumn when they will turn into dark blue berries, and then the birds will have a snack. I was lucky, the flower was actually there, not Photoshopped.
