If you like being paid for your time, don’t be a farmer. Most farmers just cover their costs and don’t factor in their own long hours, which is why over 80% need an off the farm job and why we have lost nearly one million small farms in just the last 50 years. Cheap food comes at the expense of the people producing it. Not asking for sympathy, I willingly chose this life! Just sharing the reality. Every time you choose to support a small farmer, you’re helping keep small family farms in business, stewarding the land, and preserving a food system worth passing on to the next generation.

Trees have a cooling effect, this is quite easy to understand. But their effect is considerble, especially in summer's heat waves: they can reduce the cities' surface temperature in the summer by up to 12°C [📹 Ecosia]

بالنسبة لي، موجات الحر ليست مجرد أرقام قياسية. أتعامل معها كإنذار مبكر لإدارة أحمال الكهرباء والطلب على المياه وكفاءة المباني وسلامة العمل في الهواء الطلق.

🔥 موجة حر قوية تلوح في الأفق بأوروبا الغربية الأسبوع المقبل، مع توقعات ببلوغ الحرارة نحو 40°C في باريس و40°C في مدريد تحت تأثير قبة حرارية واسعة النطاق. ⚽ ولحسن الحظ، تُقام بطولة #كأس_العالم هذا العام في الولايات المتحدة وكندا والمكسيك، وليس في أوروبا التي تستعد لموجة حر قد تجعل إقامة المباريات الخارجية أكثر صعوبة. #Europe #Heatwave #HeatDome #WorldCup #France #Spain #WeatherNews

🚨 BREAKING: The Pacific is flashing a warning sign. NASA satellites are detecting a massive sea-level rise across the tropical Pacific as a rapidly strengthening Super El Niño takes shape. 🌊 Warmer oceans = expanding water 🌧️ Extreme rainfall in some regions ☀️ Severe drought in others 🌾 Global crop production at risk If current forecasts verify, late 2026 into 2027 could bring: ⚠️ Historic flooding ⚠️ Agricultural disruptions ⚠️ Food price spikes ⚠️ Weather extremes on a global scale The climate system is loading the dice once again. How strong do you think this El Niño will become? 👀 #ElNino #ClimateCrisis #Floods #ExtremeWeather #FoodSecurity #ClimateEmergency 🌎🌡️🌊

Exactly. For me, once solar starts cutting costs and improving resilience, it stops being niche.

Researchers have found that childhood exposure to microbes in soil and outdoors is linked to a more robust immune system. (Quartz, 2017) #SaveSoil savesoil.org

Haha nice one 😄 If it was that easy, I think every farm would have one already.

بالنسبة لي، قيمة التوقعات المناخية لا تظهر في كثرة الخرائط، بل في قدرتها على تحسين قرارات الماء والطاقة والغذاء عندما تختبرها الوقائع.

Well said. For me, healthy ecosystems are tied directly to food security, water security, and our future. We need to protect them and act now.

True. Innovation should work with nature, not against it.

أحب الزراعة المستدامة لما تكون ذكية فعلاً، لا فقط أقل استهلاكًا للماء والأرض. يعجبني أكثر لما تكون المزرعة نفسها مصممة لتنتج من نفس المورد غذاء أكثر، دخلًا أفضل، وخصوبة أعلى. هذا هو النوع من الكفاءة الذي أفهمه وأحترمه.

🔴 الإعلام الهندي يتحدث عن جدية الحكومة الهندية في تسريع تنفيذ مشروع خط أنابيب الغاز البحري مع سلطنة عمان 🇴🇲 🇮🇳 🇮🇳 بعد إغلاق مضيق هرمز رفعت الهند وارداتها من الغاز العماني إلى مستويات قياسية

🥒 FROM RECYCLED BUCKETS TO BOUNTIFUL HARVEST! Who said you need expensive equipment to farm successfully? These cucumbers grown in recycled containers inside a simple greenhouse are producing an absolutely massive harvest proof that creativity beats capital every single time.

By 2035, more than 257 million young people will enter the workforce in countries affected by fragility, conflict, and violence. In these environments, jobs are more than an economic outcome. They are a pathway to stability, resilience, and opportunity.  At the @WorldBankGroup #FragilityForum, I highlighted the critical role of small, micro, and nano businesses, which are often the first source of income, hope, and recovery for communities facing some of the world's most challenging circumstances.  Creating jobs in FCV settings is not only a development imperative. It is an investment in peace and stability.  youtube.com/watch?v=g9dfJVBZ…

Yes. For me this is real food security: save local seeds, keep traditional varieties in the field, and keep that knowledge with farmers and communities.

You use AI as an assistant, and that can improve the way you work. But you must keep judgment active, because convincing outputs can still miss context, hide assumptions, or lead to wrong decisions. Microblog by @antgrasso #ResponsibleAI #AILeadership

أرى أن الاستدامة لا تُقاس فقط بما نبنيه من بنية تحتية، بل أيضًا بما نحفظه من معرفة محلية دقيقة: بالماء، بالمزرعة، بالنبات، وبمواسم الأرض.
