Finally starting A Year on Planet Earth 🌍

Framing nature through Earth's 365-day orbit is such a cool angle. The seasonal domino effects are wild.

What are your favorite nature doc recommendations? 🎬

Should our top priority be saving Earth's vanishing wildlife or colonizing Mars?

🌿 Eco-Centrism: Protect biodiversity, restore wild habitats, stay home.
🚀 Techno-Humanism: Build redundancy, expand consciousness, explore space.

Where do you stand?

The things you do for the planet. 🌎

Buying loose garlic means no bulk packaging. But after getting bad cloves, I now do a mini-peel in-store to check freshness.

The cashier was absolutely judging me 😂

10/10 for healthy 🧄, 0/10 for making friends at checkout.

Roughly $33 for a 700 sq ft apartment during one of the hottest months of the year 😂

To be clear: we didn't sacrifice our comfort or quality of life to get this. Turns out what’s good for the planet is usually also good for our wallet. 🌍✨

Cleaning a toilet feels petty when discussing global conservation, but small daily habits are what shape our planet. 🌍

This Southern Living guide: www.southernliving.com/how-to-clean... uses vinegar instead of harsh chemicals. We can make it even greener by skipping the paper towels they suggest. 🧵

My #DIY sudare (すだれ) until I find a permanent one for my window. 🌿☀️

I usually hang it outside from 9 AM to 12 PM to block the intense heat before it strikes the glass. (Hung inside here just for demo purposes!)

After watching someone mindlessly grab a massive handful of paper towels to dry their hands, I wanted to share a personal milestone. This pack from Sept 2025 was the last time I bought a paper product. Most of it is still left. Mindful habits change everything. #Sustainability #ZeroWaste

Slept with just the fan running last night at 85°F and it wasn't bad at all. Keeping it spinning today, too. Moving air makes a massive difference in how our bodies adapt to the heat, completely saving on the electricity bill. #SustainableLiving #SaveMoney #EcoFriendly

Canceled my monthly WWF donation. When 31% ($107M) goes to internal payroll and the CEO makes $1.2M+, it’s a corporate machine.

Instead, I’m prioritizing lean pipelines:
🔸 Nsefu Wildlife Conservation Foundation
🔸 Wildlife Conservation Network
🔸 Felidae Conservation Fund

Caging wild animals for festival entertainment is completely unacceptable. 🛑

This combines exercise and fun, costs absolutely nothing, and causes zero environmental harm. It looks like a perfect summer activity! Do you agree? ☀️🌿

Looking for a zero-cost weekend activity? Head to the public library. Go alone or take the family. 🌳

Borrowing physical books and media is a great way to support the sharing economy and protect niche nature resources from being phased out. 🦅

With gas prices skyrocketing, switching from car to bike is a triple win 🚲

🌱 Reduces the carbon footprint
💪 Supports physical and mental health
💰 Saves money on transport

I may have found a favorite bank. Huntington Bank allows opting out of a physical debit card during onboarding. Most banks force-ship plastic by default.

Taking note, @federalreserve.gov? This should be the industry standard. 🌎🌱

For those looking to explore plant-based global flavors, the eBook version of The Korean Vegan Cookbook is currently on deep discount for $4.99 (US stores) 🇰🇷

A great way to lower environmental footprint while enjoying some incredible storytelling and recipes 🌍🌱

This situation is unfortunate, but most of what he listed isn't even on my shopping list. I make my own plant-based milk and use castile soap from 1.5 years ago. I don’t have a dog to shop for (though if I did, I’d probably make the food from scratch). Perks of being an environmentalist. 🌱✨

🐾 @ourwildcats.com produced a video with some pretty bold statements. It is worth a watch.

This version was designed for video-first platforms. A version optimized for discussion-driven feeds may come out later. 🌍✨

We can't be #1 while drowning in $39T of debt. We have negative FU money for our own people and the planet, yet billions are always found for conflict. When humans struggle for survival, the environment is the first thing sacrificed. Priorities are upside down. 📉🌍 #NationalDebt #Priorities

Let’s be less nationalist and more naturalist. 🌿

Our environmental challenges transcend borders. When we prioritize the health of the planet, we create a sustainable future for all nations.

What does being a "naturalist" mean to you in 2026?

In the natural world, survival often looks like a crowd, but true strength is found in solitude. Many species congregate out of a need for safety, yet the most resilient individuals are those capable of thriving on their own terms. There is no requirement to follow the herd.

Taiwan’s 90% plastic recovery rate is a masterclass in policy and community participation. I’d love to see this kind of circular logic and infrastructure prioritized in the U.S. 🌿

18 seconds of bouncing balls. 🌀 A masterclass in digital CO2: a frontend working overtime while the backend has clearly checked out for the weekend. This is what happens when "Moving Fast" leaves a trail of broken code. #Agile #DigitalWaste #InfiniteLoop
