Happy World Wetlands Day.

Habitat, flood and drought control, carbon sequestration. Wetlands do it all. Is your city not flooded after every rain or snow melt event? Thank your local wetland, and the people who have worked to preserve it.

W Niemczech urzędy, część firm i przede wszystkim mnóstwo ludzi zrezygnowało z X i podobnych na rzecz mastodona. Widać to dobrze w pracy. Na mattermoscie praktycznie zawsze jak ktos linkuje do dyskusji branżowych (IT) to jest to link do mastodona.

Duża w tym zasługa pewnie Chaos Computer Club i innych środowisk przywiązanych do niezależności, FOSS i ogólny paradygmat decentralizacji wszystkiego. Co ma swoje wady (np. brak możliwości zrobienia czegoś jak moj.gov.pl)

An annual study of wolf-moose population going back to 1958 is interrupted because the weather is too warm. I'm very sorry for the scientists involved in and depending on this survey – data consistency will be irreparably damaged. phys.org/news/2024-02-weather-
