for as long as time allows

While this isn't news to anyone who works in this space, it is useful to have this water-is-wet research to affirm that Indigenous knowledge and land management are extremely effective at storing carbon and protecting biodiversity.

I want to draw special attention to this part of the article:

I get a fair number of asks and comments on my posts expressing sentiments like "human beings are a plague on this Earth", "humans ruin everything, we deserve to be wiped out", "humanity is inherently selfish, evil, and irredeemable".

I don't think the folks saying these things have bad intentions, I know their words come from a place of very understandable pain, fear, and anger. But to act as though humanity's impact on nature is inherently damaging and extractive is to erase thousands of years of Indigenous stewardship of nature. These ecosystems are thriving because there are humans living there.

the chasing gangcheori scene is unironically my favourite part of the novel currently… the descriptions made me rlly feel the intensity of the situation and GOD i loved it LMAO

i had to draw this scene - sorry it’s so messy 😭😭😭 i just didn’t like this piece enough to render it fully but i hope yall like it regardless 😛
