  • FWIW, I think you should go ahead and post it here ʕっ•ᴥ•ʔっ♡

    I don’t think writing tends to get much interaction on social media sites (or like, just in general given the sheer breadth of written word on sites dedicated to this type of stuff) but it would be nice to see varied content in this community. I myself wouldn’t have across what I’ve gathered are “THE SACRED TEXTS!” of RWBY fanfiction (Remnant’s Reclaimer) if it weren’t for someone talking about it in the r/RWBY weekly fanfic thread.






  • It’s reports like this that do actually give me hope for the future, though the study seems to be from almost 10 years ago. I’d be curious to see updated results, and I’m not saying this to be a doomer – I do believe (on my good days) that on the whole, the efforts humanity is making to slow loss of established habitat and re-growing habitats that were already lost or in jeopardy should show a fairly neutral or even positive trend – I just wonder how the last decade may look in comparison to when these stats were reported.

    Humankind is incredibly good at figuring out solutions to problems and kind enough to help nature bounce back when we overtax it. Humpback whales were hunted near to extinction just half a century ago (less than 5,000 individuals in 1966). Today there are near estimated near 100,000 and indications that their populations are increasing, and are listed as Least Concern for conservation efforts. We absolutely can and are helping nature adapt to and recover from the changes we’ve made to the planet, and we’re only going to get better at it. It may not look the same as when we arrived, but we’ll still help nature thrive around us.
