California’s rugged Big Sur coastline is often called a slice of heaven,
120 miles of unspoiled rocky promontories, sandy beaches and redwood forests
at the foot of the Santa Lucia mountains.
This year, it has endured a long summer of hell.
Wildfires, road closures and repeated disruptions to the local hotel, restaurant and campsite businesses
all have posed significant challenges in an era of climate change and unpredictable weather patterns.
One large …

After overtourism besieged Big Sur, the worst finally happened: ‘People kept saying someone is going to die’
The coastal community in California had already been devastated by landslides and wildfires before a fatal crash

the view from here

A stone spiral labyrinth on the sandy shore of Thunder Bay, laid out with flat dark shale pieces and a piece of driftwood marking the center. The view looks out across the bay toward Alpena, with calm blue water, a tree-lined shoreline in the distance, and a couple of small structures (what look like a swim platform and a dock) out on the water. Dune grass and a few bleached driftwood branches frame the scene in the foreground under a clear, mostly sunny sky. ALT by Claude

Indian Peaks mountains along the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains. August 2013

Indian Peaks Range behind Brainard Lake. Along the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado. A rock-strewn sandy beach in front of a deep-blue lake with white cap waves in a stiff breeze. The far shore is backed by (probably) Ponderosa pine trees, behind which is a row of snowy mountain tops. Above all is a dark blue sky with white clouds. August 2013.

#bee #nature

an orange fuzzy be next to its hole. it looks a bit like a honey bee only the abdomen is more wasp shapes and 5 thin orange stripes. i think the antennae look longer too.

I spent last week on Kangaroo Island, South Australia, and it really exceeded my expectations. Winter is supposed to be a good time to see wildlife and I was not disappointed. Among the many highlights was visiting a sea lion colony that is thought to house about 8% of the entire population of this endangered species. And since this is the Fediverse I should say that their reputation for making bad faith arguments in comment threads is totally undeserved.

"For the left, it’s an obvious example of public ownership and access. Italy’s large rump of former socialists and communists say that the perversity of capitalism is revealed by even shade being commercialised. For the activists of Mare Libero, freeing beaches isn’t a frivolous campaign, but a civil rights one informed by ecology and inclusion."

‘Liberate the lidos!’ Who will win the war over Italy’s private beaches?
Almost all of the sandy stretches on the country’s 8,000km of coastline are run for profit. Now ‘free beach’ campaigners are fighting back against the mafia, the military and those profiteering from sun loungers and cocktails

My second #ClimateDiary post:
Water butts all empty, as of last night. We carried dozens of watering cans full of water, both for the containers, and for the first time, for plants growing in our sandy soil, which were beginning to suffer. And of course, all the washing up water goes on the garden too.

I'm mentally casting Ben Aaronovitch's #RiversOfLondon, which I'm listening to for the umpteenth time. I've just heard Walid described as short and sandy so:

🎬Thomas Nightingale: I'd have Bill Nighy if he was younger (even though TN is really about 100), so maybe Matthew McFadyen?
