Fossil Butte National Monument is a United States National Monument managed by the National Park Service, located west of Kemmerer, Wyoming, United States. It centers on an extraordinary assemblage of Eocene Epoch animal and plant fossils associated with Fossil Lake—the smallest lake of the three great lakes which were then present in what are now Wyoming, Utah, and Colorado. The other two lakes were Lake Gosiute and Lake Uinta. Fossil Butte National Monument was established as a national monument on October 23, 1972. More at Wikipedia
Toujours étrange de tenir en main ce fossile que je crois être plus ancien que toutes les civilisations humaines...
Me regarde-t-il ???
Always strange to hold in my hand this fossil that i believe to be older than all human civilizations...
Does he look at me ?

Among Mammoths and other prehistoric giants.
.
The skeleton of the Mammoth is giant, the museum indoor section also includes a model showing how these giants actually must have looked like. Around it, various other prehistoric, some very rare, finds.

Historyland
Historyland, a unique historical theme park and museum in Hellevoetsluis. One with a high educational value. Many themes, from prehistory to the recent past that belong to history, are exhibited here. Mostly life-sized models or even real objects comprise the ever-growing collection. Often with an educational character in which you can even participate actively, such as participating in paleontological excavations or prospecting for gold, make this theme park particularly suitable as a learning environment. The park and a number of buildings offer enough subjects for a nice day with lots of fun but also an educational day.

Extinction Rebellion and Scientist Rebellion Italy carried out an enormous "guerrilla" projection on the venue of the 2022 Gastech Conference in Milan, exposing the destructive consequences of this criminal industry.
Fossil gas is just another dirty fossil fuel that emits CO2 when burnt and leaks methane (a super potent greenhouse gas) all along its supply chain. As the climate crisis intensifies, any new gas investments are investments in death and destruction. #CleanGasIsADirtyLie!
Companies like BP, Shell, and ENI are making billions in profits off of an #EnergyCrisis they helped create, cashing out on the war in Ukraine and financing dictatorships worldwide. The salaries of their CEOs are paid for by consumers whose utility bills are strangling them.
We won't be fooled by events like Gastech. THE GAS ERA MUST END! Now is the time to accelerate the transition away from ALL fossil fuels and radically scale up decentralised renewable energy, electrification, and energy efficiency across Europe.

Fossile est une œuvre en deux temps, il s’agit d’abord d’une spirale composée de piquets de bois brûlé. Cette empreinte dans le paysage vise à initier un dialogue primitif avec la région volcanique et à agiter notre imaginaire collectif et individuel sur des thématiques archaïques, environnementales et spirituelles. Dans un second temps, il s’agit d’un parcours accompagnant le visiteur au centre de la spirale, où un sol d’écorce de cèdre rouge vient habiller le cœur et contraste avec le noir carboné du bois. Ici, la relation essentielle entre l’homme et le paysage prédomine tant dans l’approche constructive que dans la signification.
En utilisant des gestes constructifs rudimentaires, l’œuvre converse avec le paysage et bâtit
un échange intemporel.
