My NFP is developing a nature+carbon standard with the Australian National University that tries to pull some of these concerns together - this may be of interest to you. We are grappling with many of the concerns that you are discussing, and I appreciate your insights.

I wonder if the film 'Life of Pi' was filmed or based on the location? You can't beat a Bengal tiger in a mangrove swamp... 😛

I'm a huge fan. I have committed to read his book 4000 weeks every year given how much value I take from it and how much I need to remind myself of everything in it.

The fungi photos are rad.

The river photo is amazing, beautiful, but I have no idea. Someplace with lots of silt. It's almost hard to imagine which way the water is flowing. I'm guessing "Earth!" Ha.

So cool eh! I had never seen them so commonly before. They were everywhere!

Stunning photo isn't it. You're correct, it is indeed Earth. But not quite the scale I was looking for 😉
