Our built environment directly affects how we treat ourselves and each other. The more separated we are, the less we connect, the less we work to understand. Our communities ought to reflect nature and create meaningful ways to engage with one another.
The formation of @moveandprogress is to provide the tools necessary to see Omaha adapt how it needs to survive impending climate disaster, strain on the environment, and growing population density, among many other things. Our bodies and minds are key parts of that adaptation.
A single tree can absorb 10 pounds of air pollutants a year. So each tree we plant – & each tree we protect & value – is good for our health, as well as for wildlife, biodiversity, & tackling climate change. More ways trees can help us: bit.ly/2Sa6hLW #nature #wellbeing

"Nature isn’t supposed to be tidy, and its messiness is purposeful. Kill your leaf blower. Abandon your rake." nytimes.com/2020/01/13/opi…
"Nature is a tool we can use to repair our broken climate." youtu.be/aUCD_24cygQ
Not sure if there's a big "practical turn" in nature writing but I wrote this piece more because whenever I feel despair the antidote is to plug in to all the amazing stuff being done in my area by local people. theguardian.com/books/2020/jan…
The main point of it being cheaper to let your yard go is one reason why helping the environment in this way is so compelling. But even if you don't own property--just some wildflowers in pots on a balcony can help pollinators. nytimes.com/2020/01/13/opi…
"Each moss tower has the air-cleaning capability of 275 regular trees, making them an extremely powerful tool for improving air quality, especially in polluted areas where it wouldn’t be possible to plant such a large number of trees." secretldn.com/city-trees-lon…
If say 1,000 more people give wildflowers a chance by leaving areas of their gardens uncut this year, it'd really help struggling pollinators like bees, butterflies, moths, hoverflies and bats! RT if you're on board for saving time, effort and wildlife by mowing less in 2020 🐝

Trees attract wildlife, sequesters carbon, helps with flood control, prevents erosion and cleans water. They are also good for getting away from it all: nbclosangeles.com/worth-the-trip…
A bumblebee can only fly for about 40 minutes between feeding. So next year, please plant at least one nectar-rich flower in your garden or community. Your one flower could be the pit stop that saves a bee.

Rewilding, at least at the moment, is cheaper and more proven. Peatland restoration, for example, can trap a metric ton of CO₂ per year for about $16. ow.ly/s1mb50wjBgB
