That need to meet demand for an ever increasing population results in some bad stuff sometimes ( ya know like pesticides as you were talking about) but it's choices of what tradeoffs are worth it and what

Great post. I would also add plant a variety of vegetation including stuff you can consume rather than just trees. If we only have trees then the canopy can become thick and we lose understory, Like grasses

This sounds cool but also potentially really dangerous for man kind. With continual advancements medically we are increasing human populations at such a rapid rate we are going to run out of resources.

I cannot even grasp the concept of something traveling at 11 million miles per hour. That's is incredible. That's nearly the speed of light and breaks the sound barrier. It's crazy to think of what a small

Oh I can't agree more. Silly one sentence or single picture posts created solely to get more posts out there drive me crazy to scroll through. I enjoy reading wholesome well thought-out material. I am

R is so incredibly powerful. I am taking two courses on it currently in my graduate studies. It's definitely tough to learn at first but once you get the hang of it it really is fun. I love that you mention

That little phrase "stop and smell the roses" seems to get buried in the rush of every day life. Or maybe it's not roses for some but rather view a sunset. Either way I think you get my point.

Aww man. That really isn't fair at all. I don't like the whole idea of bots on steemit. It just seems like a way to make money rather than engage with people. Thank you for the thorough explaination!

Love the photo and geological history of that portion of Zion's. I have yet to visit there. Can't believe 47% of the US is still wilderness. It feels like so much less and I fear it will only continue

Please fill me in. I haven't heard about paying whales to obtain more visibility and higher reputation but the comments suggests that having the randowhale votes means I paid for more visibility? I

Me too! I am eager to track his movements once released this fall.

He was cute to the eye but man oh man was he stinky. Haha. Bears have a very distinctive odor. Even this little guy only weighing in at 33 lbs was probably stronger than I am.

Vultures are amazing. And we really can learn from them. They use what others don't want. If we as people could do that more often there would be so much less waste!

That's crazy how far apart we are but how similar of views.

That's an awesome observation! Sadly I was at work. We had a large outside luncheon for the whole office and watched the eclipse. So needless to say the only cool thing I noticed was how different shadows

Where are you located? I'm in Utah and got to see almost the same view. The shadows the eclipse created were pretty awesome. It's amazing how different the light was with the moon covering most of the

That doe is sooo thin. At least her fawn looks plump and healthy. She is definitely giving all her nutrients to her baby (through nursing). Looks like a beautiful place to visit!

Awesome! I sadly hid in the tree so all I walked away with was bug bites from round 1.

Must of been a glitch or something cause I know I responded the morning after it was posted on my way to work( I ride the train so no worries, no steeming while driving haha). I even discussed the options

I have a rifle with 6 rounds of ammunition. I choose option 3! I will be able to see enemys from much further away on the streets than in a store which gives me the advantage with my rifle.
