BREAKING: Leaked documents show that several nations have tried to lobby to change the @ipcc ’s report on climate change 🌍

Countries such as Australia, Japan, Saudi Arabia and Brazil have tried to make the UN play down the impact that for example fossil fuels and meat consumption have on the climate and the environment.

This comes just days before the COP26 UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow, and it is incredibly frustrating to think that so many of the nations taking part to ”tackle climate change together” are simultaneously trying to tone down and hide the facts.

We will not be able to mitigate and reverse climate change with some of the largest nations in the world not committing 🤦🏼‍♀️ Remember to vote in elections and to put pressure on your local politicians! We can all make a difference, but it requires action.

Autumn harvest 🍁 More than two kilos of delicio

Autumn harvest 🍁 More than two kilos of delicious jerusalem artichoke. Did you know that it’s ridiculously easy to grow this vegetable? So easy, that you shouldn’t plant it just anywhere, as it will spread all over the place!

Technically, the Jerusalem artichoke is a herb, but it’s often viewed as a root, as that is the part of the plant that you eat. It’s also closely related to the sunflower🌻 You harvest it during autumn and winter.

I really enjoy the rich, earthy flavour of the artichoke, and I find that it goes well as a soup, with pasta, in a risotto, or as a puré with a side of some delicious protein source.

If you have a garden and are looking for something easy and low maintenance, this vegetable is for you 🤗

Do you think it should be punishable to litter like this? 🧐

I do.

This was my view walking home from a party on Saturday night last week. I haven’t been out that late for ages, so maybe I’ve forgotten how it is, but I was so shocked 😱 There was trash EVERYWHERE.

Luckily, if you live in Finland, there’s currently a citizen’s initiative (”kansalaisaloite”) that you can sign! The citizen’s initiative wants to penalise littering and put in place cash penalties. If it reaches 50 000 signatures, the Finnish parliament will discuss it. This is an important step towards keeping trash out of nature. More than 10 000 people have signed already 🤗

Link in my bio to the initiative❗️
