Desert cleared of all its vegetation and animals... and even the sand dunes themselves. The trucks are shifting sand around to level the area.
This crossing, along with the toll for the old wooden bridge must have caused some severe chaos at times!

We found this one under a log. I picked it up to avoid injuring it when I rolled the log back into place.
Another lovely find, towards the end of a great afternoon. Many thanks from me and the dogs to Joy and Graham who are always happy to share their knowledge of the Levels.

Chicago: a city at street level.
Inspired by the work of Daido Moriyama (not necessarily the subject matter, but the high contrast visuals in city life)
As I've mentioned before, Chicago is a great city to live in (so long as you are ok with the weather). It's a very fast moving yet livable city. It's also a lot of fun to photograph as there's always something going on. And ofcourse, there's the city: the rush of everyday life; the streets, the people.
This is a panel with random street shots... all three are around the loop. I think I have Michigan Avenue, Washington/Dearborn and State/Lake (from left to right). Or atleast those are my best guesses, feel free to correct me if you know better :)
These engravings on the wall here show the different heights the river crested to from major floods in the past. My best guess is the camera itself is about 10 feet above the current river level to take this photo. The sign marking the 1974 flood must be 20-22 feet above the current river level. (Thats an estimate, whish I knew for sure)
Forest-based solutions to adapt the economic sector and people to climate change at the landscape level. Plenary Session 2.
Nature-based Solutions (NbS) are defined by IUCN as “actions to protect, sustainably manage, and restore natural or modified ecosystems, that address societal challenges effectively and adaptively, simultaneously providing human well-being and biodiversity benefits.” These solutions refer to the sustainable management and use of nature for tackling environmental and societal challenges, including issues such as climate change, water security, water pollution, food security, human health, and disaster risk management.
This session will present forest-based solutions to achieve the goals of international commitments by focusing on landscape approaches that connect the forests to other sectors. The solutions presented will involve, for example, forests and water (including erosion by water), forests and agriculture (including pasture lands and livestock), forests and cities, and forests and biodiversity. These solutions may be implemented in the framework of forest and landscape restoration, biodiversity conservation, and adaptation to or mitigation of climate change.
The session will focus on prominent case studies (either success stories or failures) exemplifying how stakeholders concretely addressed problems: What was the issue at stake and what solution was found? How much did it cost and what was the financing scheme? What was the impact on local governance? Lessons learnt for the case studies and the capacity of sharing the experience with other countries will be addressed. Trans-boundaries case studies will be favored.
The Ministry of Agriculture, in collaboration with the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), is hosting the Sixth edition of the Mediterranean Forest Week (VIth MWF) at the Grand Hills Hotel, Broumana, on 1–5 April 2019. The weeklong event brings together policy and decision makers, forest administrators, researchers, practitioners, donors, civil society organizations, and social and environmental based non–governmental organizations to share and promote the use of forest–based solutions to assist Mediterranean countries in the implementation of their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement.

A 24 metre natural mound in the Somerset Levels, UK. Probably used as a Norman motte with a terraced track spiralling around the hill. A 15th century church was used by Royalist troops during the English Civil War. Rebuilding of the church started in 1793, but due to shortage of money was abandoned, leaving the ruins we see today. If sea levels rise, the mump could once again become a refuge: the surrounding drained Levels are up to 6 metres below the high tide in the neighbouring Bristol Channel. Both the words "burrow" and "mump" mean hill, so it must have made a big impression on the locals!
