I see a lot of content here in the solarpunk community about the importance of re-wilding, of re-introducing biodiversity and turning our garden's into little sanctuaries, but this has always felt super inaccessible to me. I have always lived in rental properties that have little to no outdoor space, need to be regularly mowed for inspections, and where I am not allowed to make any major changes to the garden.
Recently I moved into a tiny granny flat. The yard is about a metre and a half of grass in a circle around the house, and a metre of grass either side of my concrete driveway. When I first got the inspection report for it, the real estate described the yard as "mostly weeds." This time I thought, fuck it. I only have inspections once every three months, which gives me plenty of time to let it grow without anyone noticing. Plus I had the insurance that with the lawn being "mostly weeds" the real estate wouldn't notice the difference. Let see if letting it grow actually makes a difference to the eco-system around me.
I invested in a push mower, to cut down the grass without doing much to the "weeds", and then after my first inspection I just let it grow. My hopes were not high. My space is absolutely tiny, and most of the wild flowers growing in my yard mostly invasive species for Australia. I had no idea if it would make any difference at all.
Its been an uncharacteristically rainy spring here, so the flowers all sprung up far far more quickly than I thought they would. Only two weeks after the mow there were dandelions as high as my knee. With the wildflowers came the bees, and the butterflies, and then after that came the ladybugs, the dragonflies, the lizards, spiders and birds. The photos above are only a tiny fraction of what the garden has on offer, and those are only the photos from this week.
When I first moved in, I didn't used to see anything in the well mowed lawn but ants. Its only been about a month and a half since I mowed it, but with all the rain we've had recently its sprung to life far far more quickly than I'd hoped. With such a teeny tiny lawn in the middle of the suburbs I really didn't expect to see a difference in biodiversity. How much difference can such a tiny little patch of flowers actually make? It turns out a lot.
I'll be devastated when I next have to mow it all down in another 6 weeks, but with the risk of snakes here, its probably for the best. It honestly been so lovely to walk down my driveway in the morning and be circled by all the butterflies. Its made my day every morning.
I hope I've convinced anyone else who also has a tiny space and has been considering letting it grow out to give it a go. You don't need to have a huge garden or be able to plant all native species in order to make a difference. Although these things are great, making due with what you have is the best first step.

🔎 ABOUT THIS PROJECT
===============================
Montane woodland is a virtually extinct habitat in Scotland. Of the 5.1% of native forests in the Scottish Highlands, only a mere 4% exists above altitudes of 400 metres. Although important restoration schemes are working to restore Caledonian pine forest, temperate rainforests and montane willow scrub, a missing piece of the landscape is largely, if not completely neglected - mountain birch woodland. In what should be a transitional zone between lower and higher mountain woodlands, high-altitude adapted species like mountain birch have all but disappeared, leaving a gap in this ecological niche. This Mountain Birch Project (MBP), led by Reforesting Scotland, aims to progress efforts to reinstate mountain birch woodland in Scotland. It will involve locating remaining fragments, mapping their distribution and seed collection and propagation, as well as the establishment of a seed orchard.

2.10: Ecofascism and Rewilding: A Conversation With Ariel Kroon and Christina De La Rocha
There’s no question that the biosphere is in crisis right now thanks to human-driven global warming, our hostile takeover of most of Earth’s land area, and our pollution and overfishing of the seas. Slowing down—never mind outright stopping—the collapse of the Earth’s ecosystems and the mass extinction currently gaining pace calls for aggressively protecting the environment, or possibly even…

What are your opinions on how canon shows the cats dismantling the beaver dam in the beginning of OotS? Also, will the kittypets (Snowdrop, Serville, and Jigsaw) and the loner ,Woody, still be helping the clan cats?
The kittypets are being removed. There is no need for them to be there; they take screentime that should have gone to the warriors who are actually on the patrol.
We never see those kittypets ever again; I am really not a fan of how willing canon is to just conjure up random cats to have roles instead of build up the glut of side characters that make up the Clans. Especially from RiverClan; they get sooo little time on the page as is.
I also have no idea why the beavers didn't just re-build the damn... that's a thing they do. They very explicitly couldn't kill the beavers. They will just build it again.
I may change the situation so that Dovepaw realizes that they'll just do it again, and Tigerpaw displays her craftiness by realizing that their dam-building abilities are exactly what ShadowClan needs to help with their bog project. Relocate them instead of just defeating them.
Marshwing is exasperated. Of course his rowdy apprentice would choose NOW of all times to ask for a pet.

Simple techniques to help you tune into your senses and slow down
⇻ Mindfulness and meditation
At a fundamental level, mindfulness can be defined as the awareness of 'some-thing', while meditation is the awareness of 'nothing'. They're symbiotic; mindfulness supports and enriches meditation [and can be applied at any given moment throughout the day], while meditation nurtures and expands mindfulness [and is usually practiced in a specific place and posture for a specific amount of time ...]
⇻ Pause and Recalibrate
Ultimately, being mindful is about pausing and consciously relaxing and softening our minds and bodies. To truly slow ourselves down, [however], we must recalibrate- [or] shift our thinking and way of being from a hectic, fast-paced modern lifestyle to one that is slower and more in tune with nature.
⇻ Breathe
Slowing down can be achieved by simply focusing on taking smooth, deliberate, calming breaths. You don't have to be sitting in stillness with you eyes closed, though you can if you want [...]
⇻ Ground Yourself
Grounding, also called Earthing, is a therapeutic technique that involved doing activities that [...] electrically reconnect you to the Earth [...] It can help with healing, pain reduction, and mood improvement.
From Wild Life: 50 Projects to Rewild Your Life From the Home to Outdoors, published 2022; Anna Carlile (My Review Here) (My Ko-Fi Here)
* While the terms are used interchangeably and treated as being the same within certain sectors of psychology, Grounding and Earthing are two separate techniques with different methods and intents within metaphysics and the related spheres of Witchcraft and the Occult. It's important to both know and understand these differences when utilizing non-occult / witchcraft texts for occult / witchcraft purposes.

"In one of Africa’s last great wildernesses, a remarkable thing has happened—the scimitar-horned oryx, once declared extinct in the wild, is now classified only as endangered.
It’s the first time the International Union for the Conservation of Nature (IUCN), the world’s largest conservation organization, has ever moved a species on its Red List from ‘Extinct in the Wild’ to ‘Endangered.’
The recovery was down to the conservation work of zoos around the world, but also from game breeders in the Texas hill country, who kept the oryx alive while the governments of Abu Dhabi and Chad worked together on a reintroduction program.
Chad... ranks second-lowest on the UN Development Index. Nevertheless, it is within this North African country that can be found the Ouadi Rimé-Ouadi Achim Faunal Reserve, a piece of protected desert and savannah the size of Scotland—around 30,000 square miles, or 10 times the size of Yellowstone.
At a workshop in Chad’s capital of N’Djamena, in 2012, Environment Abu Dhabi, the government of Chad, the Sahara Conservation Fund, and the Zoological Society of London, all secured the support of local landowners and nomadic herders for the reintroduction of the scimitar-horned oryx to the reserve.
Environment Abu Dhabi started the project, assembling captive animals from zoos and private collections the world over to ensure genetic diversity. In March 2016, the first 21 animals from this “world herd” were released over time into a fenced-off part of the reserve where they could acclimatize. Ranging over 30 miles, one female gave birth—the first oryx born into its once-native habitat in over three decades.
In late January 2017, 14 more animals were flown to the reserve in Chad from Abu Dhabi.
In 2022, the rewilded species was officially assessed by the IUCN’s Red List, and determined them to be just ‘Endangered,’ and not ‘Critically Endangered,’ with a population of between 140 and 160 individuals that was increasing, not decreasing.
It’s a tremendous achievement of international scientific and governmental collaboration and a sign that zoological efforts to breed endangered and even extinct animals in captivity can truly work if suitable habitat remains for them to return to."

New York Harbor was a haven of incredible underwater biodiversity—until centuries of pollution turned it into a cesspool. Today, an alliance of architects, restaurateurs, scientists, and high school students is working to restore the harbor and protect the city from climate change. At the heart of the effort is a tiny creature with an outsized talent for cleanup: the extraordinary oyster.

Ok, so this is a callout post for EstablishedTitles.com
As a Scottish person, I need to say this:
ESTABLISHED TITLES IS A SCAM!
You cannot become a Lord/Lady in Scotland by owning land of any size. The title of Lord or Lady are titles of Peers in the House of Lords, who are members of the House of Lords, the Upper House of the British Parliament. You get a peerage by donating a fucktonne of money to the Tory party being appointed as such by the British Government, not by owning Land in Scotland. If owning land was enough to get you a peerage, my parents would be Lord and Lady Stabbii. They are not. In fact my Dad is banned from any official honours.
There are better ways to support tree planting, rewilding or natural landscape projects in Scotland, namely by donating to either the National Trust for Scotland or the Scottish Wildlife Trust. Both of these charities are trusted, well established and reliable charities that carry out rewilding, tree planting and nature conservation all over Scotland. If you want a cool title, make one yourself.
Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

Is it enough to create new practices?
.
I talk a lot about spiritual and rewilding practices that worked wonders for me health NG & embodying my most authentic self, to connect with my inner Wild Woman and create the life of my wildest dreams.
.
But are practices enough?
.
Well, yes but no.💁🏼♀️
Yes, if you keep doing the right practices for you and evolve through them but like so it will take way longer to reach your goals. These practices are extremely helpful and have healing affects on their own, but without the inner change, a new way of thinking and revolutionising your concept of your own self, and following it through with brand new actions, they won't be maximum benefitial.
Practices are in the end, outside ourselves. Things we do and perform in the phisycal world and yes, their roots, their connection is within us. But they are just an extension, an external support for us. True change comes from within. You don't need practices to change anything in yourself or in the way you think, but you can reach to new realisations and new layers of healing faster.
.
Pssst! Did you get our Wild Woman embodied practices guide already? If not, head to the link in my bio & start connecting🐺
