By the By pyro beetle

This pyror beetle showed up after the wildfires of 2023. I believe it was anyway. It was photographed on a wooden edge of an apartment building. These beetles live on burnt wood according to sources.

It’s coming up to the 21st of November next Thursday. And that’s the evening that the Nicola naturalists are doing a presentation on wildfire. The presentation begins at 7:00 p.m. at the Nicola Valley institute of Technology, top of the hill Bell Shaw Avenue in Merritt, British Columbia. The event  is hosted by the Nicola naturalist Society Incorporated and its members.

The group is fond of saying everybody is welcome. They’re going to appreciate memberships and donations. And there is also a random drawing fundraiser for donated items at the break and the money goes toward a bursary for an nvit student.

Hope to see you there …

The costed promises matter….

Social media matters…

Attitudes matter..

Post from summer

We are comfortable more with fall approaching, you ?

Timely

The recent and prolonged warming is  motivating action.

We are probably facing a bubble as economic  power is increased by the  completion of the Trans Mountain expansion . The gold weld was done 👍 in a  small ceremony in recent weeks.

Carbon tax revenue available

The increase in available  Fossil energy will be accompanied by revenues that are dedicated similar to road construction in the province. These revenues will come from carbon tax  and fund plans that reduce and mitigate carbon in our atmosphere. Once again, good luck to all those in these endeavors and to those that have to use their brain power to put forward alternatives to what might be successful planning.

Parks are a good place to work for nature’s cure.
