Well-done humanity! 👏 working each day2polish off the remainder of our planet through your continued & ever-increasing #carnist culture.

Ik zit me zo te ergeren aan de leugens en drogredenen waar critici van schonere landbouw nu weer mee komen. (N.a.v. plannen PBL)
LTO: voedselzekerheid in gevaar. Nee! Minder vee=MEER voedsel.
Vd Plas: dan worden we afhankelijk van buitenland. Nee Juist niet! Dat zijn we nú, voor import veevoer.

last year's #dodo feature is now in the #openarchives It's about what we can learn from #extinct species about #conservation and #extinction today https://proseandpassion.blogspot.com/2024/09/dodo-and-company.html

dodo and company
Here in Oxford we feel a special cultural connection to the dodo (_Raphus cucullatus_) - seeing that an important specimen of the extinct species is housed in the University Museum, where it inspired Lewis Carroll to assign it a small role in Alice's adventures in wonderland, which ironically secured its immortality. Witness the pub down the road from me which is run by the Dodo Pub Co. At this year's Alice Day (the Saturday closest to July 4, the day when the story was first told), there was an excellent talk about the museum's specimen, and soon after a paper came out evaluating the entirety of the scientific literature on the dodo and on its relative the equally extinct Rodrigues solitaire (_Pezophaps solitaria_).
All of which clearly indicated that I needed to write a dodo-themed feature. The more general question I have tried to address is what the study of extinct species can teach us for the conservation of those that are endangered but still alive. The feature is out now:
**The way of the dodo**

New favorite phrase to gracefully describe the severity of harm climate change and the human impact on the sixth extinction - from Lovejoy -
“Human activity has created an obstacle course for the dispersal of biodiversity.”
