These lock down should not affect the economy also.
Yes, but that's the hard part. We have waited so long to take proper climate action that ANY meaningful action we take now will have severe short-term economic effects.

Hope this coronavirus pandemic should end.
Yeah, but it won't be long until a new pandemic comes crashing. We'll never learn.

The Kauai 'O'o (Kauaʻi ʻōʻō) was a bird species that lived on the islands of Hawaii. Due to habitat destruction by human activities and exploitation, and after humans introduced invasive species to the islands, this bird species went extinct in the late 1980’s. The Kauai 'O'o mated for life and both the male and the female had a distinct mating call. Wikipedia describes it as a very vocal, making hollow, erratic, flute-like calls.
The bird was last sighted in 1985, and the last sound recording was made in 1987. Listen to the last bird of his kind singing a mating call, to a female that would never come.
Truly heart-breaking.

And I agree with you, you can't have a cozy home without any plants.

It's winter so it's pretty cold right now. But overall, our winter has been unusually warm, and it was only quite recently it started to get colder.

And don't forget that the use of GMOs will lead to corporations, like Monsanto, to own and claim patent on the very seeds of life.

Seasons changing sets the climate’s evolution and shows us the hidden life of our planet which we can’t see with our own eyes. A recent shift in the seasonal dynamic pattern describes the current ecological crisis in the best way.
Yeah, I really miss our four seasons. It was decades since we had a proper winter. Now it's mostly a short spring, and then a long and sweltering summer that ends with a dark and wet autumn.

I don't really do any regular exercising. But I try to eat healthy and use my bike or walk whenever I can.

Which one? It seems they are discovering a new coronavirus strain every other day. I just hope the vaccines will be effective against these new covid-19 virus strains. Andit just goes to show that we will have to learn to live with the coronavirus and it many different versions.

What economy, the world economy?

I think it's fairly good, given the circumstances. But it's obvious that people are getting tired of the recommendations and restrictions.

Yeah Solar panels are good but you need to think more of if you live in cold areas cause there might be issue of sunlight.
Sure, there are less sunlight in colder regions. But solar panels work great in these places as well! Believe it or not, but the cold and snow in these regions actually help the solar panels in various ways, such as cleaning the panels when the snow melts, the increased reflection of light off white snow helps increase the output, and even the cold helps increase the efficiency of the actual panels, and so on. And yes, there might be long nights in the arctic regions during the winter, but solar power in the North is not only possible, but also profitable.

Yes, it's a shame it wasn't built. I think it would have looked delightful.

it's eco-friendly to buy used
That's so true!
I use a PC that I've built myself so that I can repair it and swap out parts when needed.

In my experience, used coffee grounds mixed with soil work well as a pesticide.
I've never heard about that before. How does that work?

These garlic mushrooms look so delicious!
This is what you need:
- Mushrooms
- Unsalted butter — use unsalted to control the amount of salt added.
- Olive oil — just a little oil added to the butter gets them nice and crispy on the outer edges and prevents the butter from burning.
- Garlic — please use fresh where you can.
- Herbs — we love parsley and thyme, but you can use oregano, rosemary, basil, etc.
- Salt and pepper.
- Optional:
- Onion — green, red, yellow or white! This is an optional ingredient BUT I find it enhances the garlic flavour.
- Dry white wine — also optional. If you’ve never added wine to your garlic mushrooms, you won’t regret trying it.
INGREDIENTS
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 an onion chopped (optional)
- 1 pound (500 g) Cremini or button mushrooms
- 2 tablespoons dry white wine* (optional)
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves chopped
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 4 cloves garlic minced
- Salt and pepper to taste
INSTRUCTIONS
- Heat the butter and oil in a large pan or skillet over medium-high heat.
- Sauté the onion until softened (about 3 minutes).
- Add the mushrooms and cook for about 4-5 minutes until golden and crispy on the edges.
- Pour in the wine and cook for 2 minutes, to reduce slightly.
- Stir through thyme, 1 tablespoon of parsley and garlic. Cook for a further 30 seconds, until fragrant.
- Season generously with salt and pepper (to your taste).
- Sprinkle with remaining parsley and serve warm.
