I couldn't find anything about this in English.
But summarizing it, the article says that during the pandemic lockdowns in Santiago de Compostela, there was a chance to study pavement temperature. It was discovered that in places where the grass and moss was not removed, the temperature was up to 20 degrees lower than in places where it was.
More moss and grass make our physical spaces more liveable in these times of #ClimateCrisis.

The German expression 'na ja" means nothing specific, but can mean a lot of things:
- Oh well.
- I don' t know.
- I don't think so.
- You serious?!
- What can I say?
- I've seen better.
- That's what I just said.
- It's okay, but not really.
So, it will probably get you through every conversation.
Na ja, almost.
Enjoy our language!

Pine martens - aren’t they just beautiful?
A departure from my mountain photography today. I have spent the last six summers photographing pine martens from my tiny hide in the woods near #Inverness in the #ScottishHighlands.
This animal on the right is only 5 months old, leaning up against her mum and having a look around. A magical moment, and one I am privileged to have seen.
