    Apríl bol v globálnom priemere 1-2. najteplejší mesiac a vyrovnal tak doterajší rekord z roku 2016. Pravdepodonosť, že aj celý rok 2020 bude rekordne teplý sa tak opäť o niečo zvýšila.

    Nežijeme len v nových klimatických podmienkach v poronaní pred 150 rokmi, ale žijeme v období prudko rastúcej globálnej teploty - aj preto sa ekoystémy a lesy nestíhajú úspešne prispôsobovať a postupne kolabujú.

    stát v současnosti připravuje stavbu šesti vodních nádrží - jedná se o Nové Heřminovy, Skaličku, Vlachovice, Kryry, Senomaty a Šanov na Rakovnicku. Zhruba půl miliardy korun je vyčleněno na propojování vodárenských soustav, kde sedm pilotních projektů má pomoci se zásobováním vodou pro milion lidí. Loni ministerstvo zemědělství na boj se suchem vydalo 13,7 miliardy korun

    Mapa uhlíkových pokladů. Tak by se dala ve stručnosti nazvat studie předních odborníků na ochranu světových ekosystémů a zemské klima sdruženými pod iniciativou Conservation International. Vědci identifikovali několik nenahraditelných přirozených úložišť uhlíku, které, má-li lidstvo ve snaze zastavit oteplující křivku na bezpečné úrovni uspět, musí zůstat víceméně nedotčené. Takovými ekosystémy, které vážou obrovské množství uhlíku a které kvůli velmi zdlouhavému procesu znovuobnovení vyžadují důkladnou ochranu, jsou:

    * pralesy
    * rašeliniště
    * mangrovy

    Four decades of no-till study proves nature knows best

    another 40-year study demonstrating what nature can do for a farm! This long-term program at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln shows that no-till practices produce dramatically higher yields: 40-50 bushels more per acre. This means much higher profitability— in fact, this farm’s abundance of crops has single-handedly funded the past 36 years of the study.

    Coronavirus Reveals Corporate Colonization of Rural Economies
    https://www.johnikerd.com/...rporate-colonization-of-rural-economies?postId=5eb1c469db987e00173ec9f3

    Today’s livestock/meat sector runs pretty much like a factory assembly line, beginning with breeding stock genetics and ending at retail food markets—from conception to consumption. For fresh vegetables, the assembly line begins with seeds and ends with salads. Whenever there is a disruption in processing or any stage or station of production, the whole assembly line must be shut down. The basic problem for producers and for rural economies is that hogs, cattle, and chickens can’t be turned on and off like machines. They just keep growing and producing meat, milk, and eggs. Likewise, vegetables just keep on growing until they “go to seed.”



    Problems are further complicated by the essentially separate assembly lines for supermarkets, restaurants, and institutional food service markets. During the current crisis, the restaurant and institutional sectors have been closed while the supermarkets have remained open. The large meat packers and vegetable processors have been largely unable to shift production from one type of outlet to another because of highly specialized handling, processing, and distribution facilities. So, producers have been killing flocks of hens that were producing for the institutional liquid egg market while there has been a scarcity of eggs in the supermarkets. Others have been plowing up vegetables that were destined for the restaurant market while supermarkets shelves for fresh produce were empty. Dairy farmers are dumping milk destined for closed schools, while kids obviously still need milk.



    Virtually all production in these sectors are either under contract or essentially committed to specific processing plants. There are no open markets or independent processors left that can accommodate the numbers of animals that come out of today’s large confinement animal feeding operations or CAFOs. The same is true for large scale commercial vegetable production. Large independent producers are essentially locked in as well because the plants where they usually sell are expecting their production and other plants in their area are scheduled to run at capacity without their production. So, when a particular processing plant shuts down, the animals or produce scheduled for that processor are left without anywhere else to go. So, vegetable growers plow up crop before they “go to seed.” Contractors euthanize their producers’ hogs and chickens or cancelling contracts leaving it up the contract growers to get rid of the animals.



    There are no open markets left where large numbers of independent producers and buyers meet to negotiate a fair market price that would result in the allocation of agricultural commodities to where they are needed. There are no local processing facilities that can accommodate more than the limited number of food crops or animals that are produced by local farmers for their families or a few local customers. Those facilities are currently running at capacity because of market failures elsewhere. Most of the local restaurants, school, hospitals, and institutions are end points in corporately owned or contracted supply chains and have little if any freedom to access surplus local production.

    The COVID-19 pandemic has revealed that neither farmers, food service workers, consumers, nor local governments in rural areas have any degree of control over their local agri-food economies. Their economic well-being depends entirely on decisions of a few large corporations that have no legal responsibility other than to maximize profits for the benefit of their stockholders.

    Sucho v Česku: Základem obrany proti suchu je starost o půdu | E15.cz

    Profesor Zdeněk Žalud, z brněnské Mendelovy univerzity: „Platíme daň za neuvěřitelný rozvoj, který přírodu, půdu, lesy i klima těžce poznamenal.''
    * ''Česko změnu klimatu a její dopady přežije, není to smrtelná nemoc. Strach je z toho, jak tento problém omezí náš komfort. Jak budeme muset vydávat část zisku na omezení tohoto jevu, a se budeme muset dělit o území či potravu s migranty z oblastí, kde dojde voda.''
    * ''Samostatnou kapitolou, kde se projeví dopady sucha, jsou lesy, zásobování pitnou vodou, případně erozní účinky přívalů či dokonce možných povodní, které často po epizodách sucha přichází.''
    * ''Lokálně a regionálně úspěšné projekty jsou, ale krajina jako celek? K tomu je ještě nutná jedna věc. Správně, a kladu důraz na správně, motivovat agrosektor. Ten bezpochyby drží krajinotvorný trumf. Jinak je škoda, že stát neslyšel dlouhodobá varování vědců a opravdu muselo přijít dramatické sucho devastující zemědělství i lesnictví, navíc již spojené s problémy s pitnou vodou, aby začal brát změnu klimatu vážně.''

    Our Coming Baptism by Fire
    https://www.filmsforaction.org/articles/our-coming-baptism-by-fire/

    We know for sure there will be climate chaos. We are likely headed for a four degree world. For dead coral, melted ice caps and uninhabitable tropics. We know there will be more species extinctions, more human suffering and death on a biblical scale. High technology, Bio-technology, Artificial Intelligence cannot save us from any of this – the death, the disease, the heat. This is our baptism by fire.

    There will be famine as industrialised agriculture destroys the fertility of the soil. There will be more pandemics as we colonise the remote and hostile places where animals hide and as our misguided model of medicine continues to manipulate disease in laboratories. There may even be war, but please God, let our fatally wounded institutions save us from this if they have anything left to offer.

    Last night, as the full moon rose over the orchard, I sat at the foot of a dear ancient walnut tree. Looking up through the branches at the stars decorating every bough, they told me: there is no stopping this now. The only way you (all of humanity) are going to change, is to face the hell you have unleashed and either survive it or not.

    This is the way it must be. We will only learn by falling over and picking ourselves up. By failing. By bringing ourselves to the point of death. Such is initiation

    COVID-19 and the climate crisis are intertwined threats to Native Americans and the Earth: Chase Iron Eyes
    https://www.ehn.org/amp/coronavirus-native-americans-2645923635

    The COVID-19 pandemic should remind us of our need to be prepared. Though Mother Earth may be getting a short breather while billions stay home, the climate crisis hasn't gone away. Even in the midst of this awful time and with two key rulings in our favor, the Dakota Access pipeline is about to double the oil it carries through our homelands, and Keystone XL construction is slated to continue.

    The climate clock is ticking, we are in crunch time, and everything is on the line.

    We must be better, right now and in the days to come, and we must use the lessons of this pandemic in our fight to preserve the planet.

    In this moment, we must avoid counterproductive measures like bailing out the dying fossil fuel industry with funds meant to protect ordinary people. Going forward, we should pass a Green New Deal to increase investment in renewable technologies and put people to work in a new, clean energy economy.

    Just as these problems are intertwined, so are the solutions.

    We Lakota have another saying: "Knowledge is rooted in all things — the world is a library."

    Let's read this moment accurately. Let's move forward with increased understanding.

    Together, let's do the work it takes to be generous and compassionate toward one another and toward our oldest relative of all, our Grandmother Earth

    whats going down in DK:
    - The government claims the bailouts are specifically meant to protect worker's jobs and incomes- yet the biggest one of all is given to SAS (Scandinavian Airlines), which has announced it will fire 5000 employees or 40% of its workforce.
    - The bailout is meant to help SAS through this crisis, in order for them to be able to get back to their previous levels of operation. Yet we can not afford to go back to this normal. The climate crisis demands we drastically reduce flying in the very short term.
    - Instead of saving the salaries of executives in dying, polluting industries, the government should be investing in a green and 'just' transition for both people and planet.
    - The Danish government decides on industry bailouts behind closed doors, without citizens and workers being able to influence them. We demand a citizens' assembly to give normal people a voice in decisions that affect their future.
    - The government has the responsibility to ensure the health and wellbeing of its citizens. Bailing out a company like SAS that is actively exacerbating the climate crisis is in direct opposition to fulfilling this responsibility.
    - Stimulus packages must be conditioned upon sustainable investments and a transition of resources to green industries, and not safe polluting industries, like oil and aviation.

    Amazon faces 'perfect storm' of forest clearance, coronavirus and wildfire
    https://www.climatechangenews.com/...azon-faces-perfect-storm-forest-clearance-coronavirus-wildfire/

    From January to March, deforestation in the Brazilian Amazon rose 51% compared to the same time last year, according to preliminary satellite data from the space research agency INPE.

    Combined with a low rainfall forecast for the May to October dry season, this forest clearance creates the conditions for rampant wildfires, according to the Amazon Environmental Research Institute (Ipam).

    “This year’s fire could be 50% worse than what we had last year,” Paulo Moutinho, a senior scientist at Ipam, told Climate Home News by video call from Brazil.

    In tandem with an opening up of the rainforest to loggers, ranchers and miners, the coronavirus pandemic is spreading fast through Amazonas capital Manaus and indigenous communities. Smoke from forest fires could make it even deadlier, as it contains pollutants that have been linked to increased risk of dying from Covid-19.

    “Covid-19 and deforestation are two crises that are entirely connected,” said Moutinho. “We have all the elements for the perfect storm

    Championing a regenerative farming revolution in Europe, with Richard Perkins, author of Regenerative Agriculture – Abundant Edge
    https://abundantedge.com/richard-perkins/

    There are a lot of inspiring voices in the regenerative agriculture community, but few have done such a thorough job of documenting and publishing every step of the development of a small profitable farm the way Richard Perkins has done with Ridgedale Permaculture. Especially now that I’ve decided to put down roots in Europe, I’ve been looking for examples of profitable small farming models for inspiration for my own project here, and between Richard’s youtube channel and two books, Making Small Farms Work and the new volume titled Regenerative Agriculture, there are few better resources to guide you step by step through all the design considerations, from landscape analysis, business planning, crunching numbers and creative paths to market.

    Though I spoke to Richard for the first time back in season 1, I invited him back for this episode to talk about some of the massive changes that are coming about from the COVID health crisis and how he’s seen it affect small farms around Europe. We explore topics like farm enterprise analysis, suggestions for direct to consumer marketing and collaboration, and Richard also talks about his observations over the years of transformation of his small farm in northern Sweden, not only from a land health perspective, but also things he’s noticed about his teaching and mentorship strategy as well as the characteristics he thinks are essential for succeeding in farming.

    TUHO: “We’re kind of like cockroaches on the planet”, one vox-pop subject tells the director, in the film’s opening seconds. “Not being judgemental or trying to play God, but we’ve got to deal with population growth”, an anti-wind farm protester declares. “Without seeing some sort of major die off in population, there’s no turning back”, anthropologist Steven Churchill adds, later on.
    Population growth is present in this film to serve this broader narrative. One graphic shows what is presumably a ‘forecast‘ shooting up to 60 or 70 billion people within a few years. Just like the exponential growth of a virus; something we know far too well this year.
    Except, the United Nations predicts population growth is slowing, and will peak at 11 billion by the end of the century. Again, misinformation serves to feed the feeling, with enough pseudoscientific information to spark emotion but nowhere near enough specificity to inform the viewer.

    Jeste k Planet of Humans:

    A new documentary released by Michael Moore, Jeff Gibbs and Ozzie Zehner, Planet of the Humans, slots neatly into pre-existing demand for content that uses misinformation to frame humanity as a virus.
    Part of reason it serves this purpose so well is that the density of falsehoods is incredible. Every re-encounter brings a new discovery. It is the gift that keeps on taking.
    Since I published my first post on this, a litany of new errors, has emerged, partly covered here. In further interviews, the filmmakers botch the basic energy math even worse than the film. One scene, where it’s alleged solar enthusiasts ‘faked’ solar power for a festival was, it turns out, seemingly filmed in 2005 (two years prior to the release of Apple’s iPhone). Another, larger event presented as being falsely powered by a nearby solar field was in 2015 (Moore says it was ‘last year‘), and that solar field was only ever marketed by organisers as powering a small nearby pavilion.
    One interviewee, Richard York, whose research suggesting renewables don’t displace fossil fuels was featured in the film, has since told media that “over the past decade, there have been more serious efforts”. The filmmakers had erased the date on the 2012 paper from the graphic on screen. Another interviewee, Richard Heinberg, revealed his interview occur.
    ...
    They filmmakers complain that the mineral and mining footprint for things like electric vehicles is non-zero. This is true of any manufactured object, so their argument is, very simply, the disavowal of any technology, of any type, scale and ownership, for any component of climate action. Community owned wind? Not allowed. Rooftop solar? It’s made from quartz, so no. Low income electricity bill reduction through locally-owned batteries? Not a chance; lithium is mined by skinny kids. Didn’t you see the montage?
    The oft-repeated gripe the filmmakers cite is “the story that climate change plus green technology equals were saved. It’s not the correct story”. But no one is telling this tale. They are shadowboxing their own imagined parody of environmentalism.
    The only explanation for this weird faux-argument is that wind and solar were prominent in the early 2010s. Electricity is the fruit that hangs lowest on the list of climate actions, and wind and solar shot ahead of competitors around 2005 – 2010.
    Everyone else moved on. A variety of tools form a major part of the plans of nearly everyone playing in this space. The International Energy Agency’s ‘Sustainable Development Scenario’ lays out one potential mix of actions to get us where we need here:

    Elizabeth Warren and Cory Booker Join Forces on Bill to Ban Most Factory Farming by 2040
    https://www.newsweek.com/...arren-cory-booker-join-forces-bill-ban-most-factory-farming-2040-1502699

    "For years, regulators looked the other way while giant multinational corporations crushed competition in the agriculture sector and seized control over key markets," Warren said in a statement. "The COVID-19 crisis will make it easier for Big Ag to get even bigger, gobble up smaller farms, and lead to fewer choices for consumers."

    "We need to attack this consolidation head-on and give workers, farmers, and consumers bargaining power in our farm and food system," added Warren. "I'm glad to partner with Senator Booker and Representative Khanna to start reversing the hyper-concentration in our farm economy."

    If passed, the law would place an immediate moratorium on new large factory farms—also known as "CAFOs," or concentrated animal feeding operations. The largest CAFOs would be entirely phased out by 2040. Medium and small-sized operations would not be prohibited, although voluntary buyouts would be offered for farmers who want to cease factory farming.

    Corporations would also be held responsible for environmental damage caused by CAFOs. In addition, law would enforce mandatory country-of-origin labelling for beef, pork and dairy products, while prohibiting the Department of Agriculture from labelling any imported meat as a "Product of USA."

    We're living through the biggest carbon crash ever recorded.
    No war, no recession, no previous pandemic has had such a dramatic impact on emissions of CO2 over the past century as Covid-19 has in a few short months.
    Multiple sources indicate we are now living through an unrivalled drop in carbon output.
    But even though we will see a massive fall this year, the concentrations of CO2 that are in the atmosphere and warming our planet won't stabilise until the world reaches net-zero.
