A Glimpse into Nature's Wonders

In the serene beauty of the Colorado Front Range, the diverse wildlife never ceases to amaze. Today, I was fortunate enough to capture the essence of a red-winged blackbird as it perched gracefully by the water's edge. This bird, with its striking red and yellow shoulder patches, stands out against the lush green foliage and shimmering water.

The red-winged blackbird is a symbol of the rich biodiversity that thrives in this region. Its vibrant colors and melodic calls bring life to the quiet surroundings, making each encounter a memorable experience. As I watched this magnificent bird, I couldn't help but feel a deep connection to nature and the intricate ecosystems that support such incredible creatures.

Every moment spent observing wildlife in their natural habitat is a reminder of the delicate balance that exists within our environment. It's a privilege to witness these moments and share them with you. I hope these images inspire you to appreciate and protect the natural world around us.

Eco-Sustainable School PR Kenergy-NMK

The project of eco sustainable school in North Macedonia precisely high school is pretty big but i have managed with my team Kenergy to overpass it and made it.So here are main points within the project.

Heating and Insulation with Algae: Algae act as insulation and a sound barrier, proliferating in sunlight to enhance shading and insulation.

Renewable Electric Energy: Utilizing heat pumps, solar panels, and agrovoltaics for efficient energy generation with minimal maintenance.

Water Reuse: Implementing systems to collect rainwater and utilize underground water resources efficiently for various applications.

Investment and Savings: Transitioning from traditional energy sources to renewable ones, resulting in significant long-term savings and a sustainable environment.

POLLOCK Y EL ARTE ABSTRACTO EXPRESIONISTA

miércoles, 21 de diciembre de 2022

Durante el siglo 20 se iniciaron nuevos movimientos y cambios como en la arquitectura y las artes; dentro de las artes, el artista Pollock fue líder de un movimiento pictórico conocido como Expresionismo Abstracto en los Estados Unidos.

Pollock usó técnicas interesantes, técnicas que no eran convencionales o común en el arte, sus métodos le permitió realizar obras artísticas abstractas y expresionistas. Una de sus técnicas se llama goteo.

El arte abstracto que fomenta Pollock, a pesar de no haber sido entendido desde su inicio por muchas personas, pienso que es interesante el hecho de que permita a los artistas tener libertad. Además, si lo vemos desde otra perspectiva, las formas y el color tiene un impacto en las emociones y conducta de las personas.

 Estos métodos que usó Jackson Pollock de forma espontánea consiguió hacer lienzos interesantes que se alejaban del arte realista. Por lo tanto, sus lienzos estaban hechos con líneas, movimiento, puntos y colores. Es un arte que rechaza imitar modelos realistas. El proceso artístico fue de manera improvisada y llena de acción, así que me hace pensar que es profundamente emotiva.

Una de los métodos que trabajó Pollock, fue el del gotear, lanzar y verter la pintura. Por ejemplo, la técnica llamada “goteo”, tenía que ver con usar varillas simples para mezclar la pintura y la pintura para pared. En cuando al verter, pues simplemente derramaba directamente la lata en el lienzo y de esta forma creaba líneas.

Pollock se basó en el significado que tenían los colores. Sus obras artísticas transmitía sentimientos, ideas e incluso conceptos. Por ende, hace que las pinturas de arte expresionista sea emocionalmente profunda e incluso también el espectador dependiendo de su percepción le puede dar un significado a la obra de arte.

En conclusión, pienso que Pollock y los demás artistas propulsores del arte expresionista tuvieron mucha valentía para afrontar a los artístas críticos. Esta valentía hizo que Pollock fuera considerado como uno de los más grandes pintores del arte abstracto. Por otra parte, este documental y la información que busqué me ayudó a entender y ver el valor del arte expresionista.

Hi guys! I've spent the better portion of my morning trying to come up with an intro post, and so far, all I’ve decided on is that I am absolutely terrible at this. So, in spite of my inability to socially interact or introduce myself, here’s my terribly awkward, first-day-of-school introduction:

I’m Karissa! I am obsessed with the ocean, and if you ever need a sit-in for animal trivia night, I’m your girl. My obsession with nature pretty much started when I was 5 years old, watching Steve Irwin in “The Crocodile Hunter,” and I’ve been annoying my friends with wildlife facts ever since. Fast forward a few years and a few states later, and my infatuation with the ocean and the environment is only more ridiculous. Now, I try to be more sustainable in my habits, and get involved in ways that make sense for me.  My life can be pretty chaotic from living in 3 states in 4 years, so I’ve definitely had to get crafty in my ways of getting involved, and keeping up with eco-friendly habits.  

I’m always looking for tips and tricks on how to be better at this whole sustainability thing, so if there’s something that works well for you, let ya girl know🤙 Need help figuring out how to get started yourself? Message me! I love giving people advice on how to be green 💚 Mahalo

8 ZERO-WASTE SNACKS FOR KIDS

These simple healthy snacks will satisfy even picky eaters. Fill little bellies, not garbage bags! 🍊 A piece of fruit Snacks and meals need not look like winning contenders for a high-pressure reality TV cooking show. Feeding your kids fruit as a snack simplifies your life. 🌱 Vegetables and hummus If you have started down the zero-waste rabbit hole, we bet you have increased your hummus intake. Homemade hummus tastes delicious and eliminates gazillions of plastic tubs generated by the store-bought stuff. 🍫 Sourdough crackers These also go well with hummus. Or any dip. Or on their own. To make these, you will need to start and nurture a sourdough starter. Learn how to do that here. When you feed the starter, you accumulate inactive starter that cannot make bread rise. 🍟 Roasted chickpeas Chickpeas and hummus are an easy means to help consumers meet the recommended 1.5 cups of legumes per week… Consuming chickpeas and/or hummus may help prevent or offset the development and progression of several chronic diseases (CVD, type-2 diabetes, etc.). 🍪 Granola bars Adjust them to your snackers’ preferences. Add cranberries, omit the chocolate chips—or keep them—toss in a bit of dried coconut or leftover pulp from making coconut milk, change up the nut butter… 🍪 Granola Or just snack on granola itself. Top it with fruit and yogurt if desired. 🌰 Roasted pumpkin seeds To make these, remove as many pumpkin (or squash) chunks as you can from the seeds. Toss the seeds in olive oil to coat, along with salt and if using spices. Spread in a single layer on a cookie sheet or glass tray. Roast at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 or or 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes until golden and crunchy.

🌽Stove-top popcorn Into a medium-size saucepan, add 1 teaspoon of salt (or to taste), 1/2 cup popcorn kernels and two tablespoons coconut oil or olive oil or a combo of the two. Put the lid on the pot, turn the burner to high heat and shake the pot continuously. Once the kernels begin to pop, they will pop quickly, in about a minute. -------------------------- Visit our website: https://zerowasteinitiative.com/ Source: Internet

 Australian Bushfire

The extreme bushfires that tore through New South Wales and Queensland in southeastern Australia caused devastation to the public due to million of acres burned, thousands of houses destroyed, and the lives that fell victim to the disaster. The four major factors that were said to contribute to the spreading of the fire are dry fuel such as leaves, grass, and branches, high temperatures, strong winds, and dry air.

Overview 3: POLLUTION

The white sand is formed from a mined dolomite rock from Cebu. According to a 2012 safety data study by Texas distributor and builder Lehigh Hanson Inc., there are several concerns that dolomite can cause to handlers. When dolomite is breathed in, it includes different levels of crystalline silica, which can cause lung damage or even cancer. The material may also irritate the skin and eyes. Furthermore, according to the University of the Philippines' Marine Science Institute, the topping of sand with crushed dolomite stones along a stretch of Manila Bay, will not assist fix the environmental difficulties and challenges affecting the area.

From 'Micro' to 'Zero', soft for the #Earth ! IT Giant #Microsoft announced that it will stop generating waste from its operations by 2030 and also cease using single-use plastics in its packaging by 2025. In 2019 itself, the company's largest office complexes sent 3,189 metric tons of waste to the landfills. As part of their new commitment, Microsoft's goal is to cut the wastage to zero by the next decade. The IT giant will also create 'Circular Centers' so as to reuse/recycle 90% of its waste on site, instead of sending it to third-party recyclers. Microsoft in January had pledged to become carbon negative by 2030 and remove more greenhouse gases from the atmosphere than it produces.

THE BEST REUSABLE COFFEE CUPS FOR YOUR TAKE-AWAY COFFEE

The combination of form, functionality and eco-friendliness makes these cups worth holding on to. Recycling has become a hot-button issue for many Australians. Between the exposés on recycled goods ending up in landfill and the hard truths around the unsustainable volume of waste we generate, the general consensus is that separating your rubbish is no longer enough: we need to cut down our consumption of plastics, period. Coffee cups are an easy – and necessary – place to start: it's estimated that more than three billion take-away coffee cups are sold in Australia each year, many of them non-recyclable. The solution, of course, is a reusable coffee cup. Lucky for you, now more than ever, there are plenty of beautiful cups to choose from; some even pay for your coffee for you. And, in another win for the planet, many reusable cups are made locally. The hardest decision is which to make a part of your daily routine.

Avevo tutto un programma oggi, dovevo fare le lavatrici, i biscotti, i crackers, il balsamo capelli per mia figlia, filtrare l’iperico, quando.... ricevo una telefonata a mia mamma:” andiamo un pomeriggio in laguna, vieni?” Ho pensato a tutto il mio programma e poi all’estate che è stata così corta e siamo già in settembre. Ho chiuso tutto, preso un costume e la borsa e sono schizzata in auto prima di ripensarci. E sono andata a vivermi questa giornata di sole e di famiglia. 🌞 #vivere #sole #mare #laguna #natura #estate2019 #decisioni #ricaricarsi #famiglia #affetti #lecoseimportanti #family #relax #live #ecoblog #ecoblogger #viverelanatura (presso Le Tegnùe Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/B11b3x9I9Kb/?igshid=q8ctnitkmc7
