Allan Savory: How to green the world’s deserts and reverse climate change
Not at all what I expected. For just over half his talk, Savory discusses the issue of desertification, which many of you are familiar with. He (like many others) makes the case for restoring these deserts.
Then, in the last six minutes, he completely blows everyone’s minds. You just gotta see it.

Punxsutawney Phil ‘indicted’ over spring forecast
“Punxsutawney Phil did purposely, and with prior calculation and design, cause the people to believe that spring would come early.” … Punxsutawney Phil is charged with misrepresentation of spring, which constitutes a felony “against the peace and dignity of the state of Ohio.”
The penalty Phil faces—Mike Gmoser, the prosecutor in southwestern Ohio’s Butler County, wrote in an official-looking indictment—is death.
The hypnotic clip has gotten nearly 450,000 views since being posted on Feb. 26, and as Pacino’s owner notes, when it comes to teaching the puppy how to snatch that stuffed bone out of the sky like a pro, “It’s going to take some work!”

“In some of our (budget) negotiations, colleagues would call and ask if I could bring Dakota,” Conrad said. “He calmed everyone down.” - Former Sen. Conrad mourns death of dog Dakota (Grand Forks Herald)
Nobody knows how it happened: an indoor housecat who got lost on a family excursion managing, after two months and about 200 miles, to return to her hometown.
Even scientists are baffled by how Holly, a 4-year-old tortoiseshell who in early November became separated from Jacob and Bonnie Richter at an R.V. rally in Daytona Beach, Fla., appeared on New Year’s Eve — staggering, weak and emaciated — in a backyard about a mile from the Richters’ house in West Palm Beach.
“Are you sure it’s the same cat?” wondered John Bradshaw, director of the University of Bristol’s Anthrozoology Institute. In other cases, he has suspected, “the cats are just strays, and the people have got kind of a mental justification for expecting it to be the same cat.”
But Holly not only had distinctive black-and-brown harlequin patterns on her fur, but also an implanted microchip to identify her.
