There's more at stake than just carbon, though I know many are dialed particularly on that, the point of the podcast is about improving the preferred drink of *billions by reducing deforestation (also good for carbon!) and rooting out human rights abuses like child labor & even 21st century slavery

Thanks Martin but our newsroom never uses AI and while I agree the speed fact you mention sounds crazy, it is in fact correct that theses birds can *dive* at 320km/hr, per the US NPS:

Once again the point of the podcast is about improving the preferred drink of billions

One solution to java's ills we didn't discuss on this week's podcast ep is buying coffee sourced from farmer cooperatives, toward reducing child labor & related rights issues
Equal Exchange & also Dean's Beans here in the US for eg, & Dean's buys from ones that grow w/ #agroforestry too:

Objective would be to improve coffee for the billion people who tend to drink it daily but props to all yaupon drinkers

Interesting, thanks, here the term is largely used for mollusks, like this U.S. agency 'shellfish initiative' - it's all about bivalves

One might say octopuses are having "a climate march" of their own
Only this climate march is north, across the seafloor
Also funny about these articles in the Beeb is how they refer to crabs and lobsters as 'shellfish' repeatedly
Is that an English thing?

Yes and this is with only about 10 or 15’ of elevation drop via a 3/4” hose, imagine how many volts a fatter pipe and a longer run (plus a bigger generator, of course) would produce ⚡️⚡️⚡️

Thanks, yes, I’ve captured dozens of images of these where leaf veins are so pronounced and plus the colors, are really dramatic
