... considers seriously impartiality. Even when we want to be completely impartial we are biased by our own cultural lens & background. Interesting training, but I am still skeptical. Also I believe most of the weight should be at institutional level not on individuals. 7/7

Cappuccino alle 15.00 in IT: 1 sec di sguardi scomodi degli altri clienti intorno. Ed io che penso è un caffè mica una bomba (o pizza ananas). È più pesante la paella e tanti si azzardano a mangiarla di notte (e presa già fatta del super). Anch'io giudico ma non c'è lo sguardo.

What happens when you look for sc. articles and news on biod. changes after reducing fertilisers and mowing on urban grasslands. Then these "news" pop up in your feed... Why removing moss, why forcing a fake green effect, why spending money for both... express.co.uk/life-style/gar…

Remove moss from lawns in 2 days with gardener’s magic item - grass gets greener

Moss will steal the attention of any lawn it starts to grow from with its yellow-green hue, but gardeners don't have to stand for it (contains affiliate links)

Great catching up with my former boss at Lanpro (UK) today! Did an informal online CPD, showing some research that could be replicated in sp. plan. practice. Almost 3 years there, 8-10 years ago, but meeting him felt like yesterday! Some people just remain in your mind :)
