What are people's favourite email apps? I've used Unibox which groups by sender for years and it's been excellent, but for some reason not being supported any more.

Artificially noisy electric cars would be such a self-inflicted failure. A future where we get back the sounds of nature in the countryside would be something to look forward to, more places to feel secluded from machines. As it is you can hear a distant road almost everywhere.
how stupid can we be to artificially make EVs noisy as cars running on fossil fuels

I can already imagine this view, with wild boar rootling in the evening light, cranes, beaver lodges along the river and lynx skulking through the plantation behind.

This part of the Cairngorms feels like a national park should…let’s keep piecing the puzzle back together!

FFS. Instead of running something helpful and informative after the stupid hemlock story the BBC just piling on the paranoia here. You forgot bluebells, btw.

Q for documentary people out there: do you produce indie docs (short/feature)? Are cinematic ob-docs your thing? Bonus - are you a fan of the Truffle Hunters or The Possibilities are Endless? Maybe you'd like to produce a doc I'm working on! Pls share or contact me for info ✌️

What an incredible video that was captured of mushrooms releasing spores into the wind! Nature is spectacular.

My dad has often talked about how I will never know the coral reefs 🪸 he snorkeled as a kid growing up in Miami, or the hermit crabs that thronged every beach 🏝. TIL there's a term for that: environmental amnesia.

Great short film by @video_ross

@mskvarla36 Excuse random request, but I have an insect id dilemma and unsure best place to ask/look. No photo! In a waterfall in Bolivian rainforest, there were many small insects, under a few inches of fast running water on boulders. Scuttled back and forth while facing up -

current. Not like a beetle. Maybe a nymph? Curious to know what family of insects this might be? Impressed they weren't swept away!

“Placing a dollar value on conserving these areas risks destroying the very belief system and way of thinking that have ensured their survival in the first place”
"We don't do anything w/o nature's permission, & if you don't take care of the trees, the environment will remind u of what u have done. No 1 enters the sacred forest 2 cut down the trees there, never" please check my photos/text about sacred spaces in West Africa 4 @nprworld

Filmmaking to aspire to. Congratulations everyone involved, I’m looking forward to watching (and seeing the mural in São Paulo)
Since releasing #TheTerritory at Sundance '22, we've been floored by the impact it has left on the world. Brief summary thread:

1. Our most concrete effort: working with the Uru-eu-wau-wau Association, we're building a permanent media center within their Indigenous territory.

Since when have film trailers and poster said “for your consideration”? Is it an old fashion becoming trendy again at the moment?

The intuition is solidifying for more and more people that the big picture most politicians and tech CEOs are selling us doesn't make sense. Somehow, we've got the world in our pockets, but we're disembowelling the world. #TheMagicValleyAndTheMachine - new essay out soon
