What’s wrong with voters is that many don’t care and many more don’t realise the implications till it’s too late. Most people are self-centred and consider ‘the environment’ as non essential or even some kind of greeny. hipster sort of fad. Some people actually hate nature.

Excellent! 😂

Just a tad pedantic? 😂

It does mean a lot. Not only can birds enjoy the fresh water but the grass and plates (if she leaves them out) collect water that nocturnal animals can also drink. I don’t know if this little video will work: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1400457728180628

On looking at it more closely it could be a montage. Perhaps if there are any more experienced photographers on here they could tell us.

As far as I know it’s real. I got it from some info material about 2-3 years ago but I’m sorry I don’t remember where from.

Thank you ikt

Well, it works here!

This one is just a still image. Could you please see if you can put this one up for people to see? Thanks again.

It was just our Bureau of Meteorology doing the forecast for the whole continent, so it’s not an exciting video but see if you can make it work. Thank you. https://www.bom.gov.au/video/severe-weather-update-widespread-severe-heatwave-this-week

I saved a short video from the BoM but it doesn’t show here. This has happened in previous posts but I forgot to ask then.

Yes, thank you.

Thank you, I’ll do that later on and let you know.

I wanted to put up a new post but cannot. The system won’t let me. I don’t understand why unless I am being blocked.

We must do both and more. Vote Green (I do) even though they haven’t been able to get the results we needed to the new national environment laws. 😪
There is Realpolitik and there is what happens on the ground so voting for environmentally responsible parties or individuals is not enough and the flow-on results are slow and sometimes don’t happen at all. We need to be politically engaged but also have practical skills we can apply to our besieged wildlife.

This info was put together by Taronga after the devastating Black Summer fires in which surviving wildlife were left with nothing to continue living. I really think to learn what to do to help wildlife in need is as important as knowing first aid to help people survive. I don’t think this is weird.

I should have added: “Don’t despair. Repair!”

I had a look at solarpunk. It’s not communistic at all. In fact, the moderator rejects communism. I like its idealism. It has the feeling of youth. It’s a bit too art college for me but hey I’m of a different generation and I’m more plainspoken. Thank you for letting me now about it. I feel like I’m going on a magical mystery tour discovering this alternative social media.

Thank you for the extended response. Bit by bit I’ll learn about this new space (to me).
