Conversations with a Rasta. 1637
Long before the advent of social media, there was Rasta. Before the time on the Rolex and GPS, Rasta knew… it was not a guess.
When all the world shook hands to show respect on greeting, Rastaman’s salute had a deeper meaning, but it took Covid for dem to zeet.
Truth be told, Rasta ever humble and bold, a businessman purely by nature. Them money nah have no value, the itrees, is the currency for Rasta and that only.
More complex than any thing inna Babylon and its system, Rasta done see the true healing of the nation. Who are you to doubt that which you do not know about, with your,
“One plus one equals two,” faith in assumptions.
The Artificial was never a part of it, intelligence was natures gift, like fluid. The patterns never asked for names or martyrdom, from the seed of life, to thy kingdom come.
What is it that must remain in tact, when all the data means less facts. Rasta never interfered nor cared and from Yo ah Rasta, yo want no part ah dat.
Where this and that is an agenda too, one that is self perpetuating.
If you do not, you will be used by the very power you are not privy to, but just remember.
For When you become aware of the reality and systems, you have to be able to manipulate and control your own manifestations.
Ah dat Rasta told yo.

Na última década, uma plataforma americana gratuita tem ajudado a entender e calcular os serviços feitos pelas árvores nas cidades. O i-Tree foi desenvolvido por David Nowak, do Serviço Florestal dos Estados Unidos, com Scott Maco, do Davey Institute, e traz ferramentas que ajudam a quantificar os valores dos serviços ecossistêmicos e benefícios das árvores urbanas e florestas comunitárias em vários eixos: mitigação da poluição, escoamento de águas pluviais, seqüestro e armazenamento de carbono e mais.

For those curious about the lore of Xenoblade.
Klaus was an Apple Employee. Apple took over the world and started using their iMecha to rule the world, so then the Saviorite Rebels decided to fight back because they didn’t want the world be controlled by a fucking tech company. This caused Apple to do the unthinkable, create Androids (the Aegises) to fight back. During a battle near the iStation, Rhadamanthus, Klaus’s boss decided to activate iOnios, but Klaus instead decided that he would rather be an iGod. However, Galea, a spy working for Google, tried to stop him. Which broke the multiverse in half. In one reality, immediately after Klaus pressed the button, Galea bitch-slapped him and that made Ontos give her enough girlboss points to turn her into an iGod. In the other universe, Galea was really fucking slow and became an iZombie like the rest of humanity.
In the new iEarth, Klaus realized half his body was missing. In fact, the rift stole his dick (rude). Saddened by his missing penis, he ended the reign of Apple by covering the world in Pneuma’s and Logos’s iClouds. Then turned all the Core Crystals into iLands. Thus life was born. Meanwhile, in the new dimension that Klaus and Galea lived in, Klaus created the biOnis (it’s bisexual) while Galea decided to spite him by creating a giant fucking Android, which Klaus dubbed the Mechonis. Klaus really wanted to make the two titans fuck, which made Galea realize that her spite didn’t work because she underestimated how much of a weeb Klaus was. Which she really should’ve seen coming after learning that Pneuma had, like, G sized cups (he was trying to make them I sized so that the one saving grace of his androids would be their iCups, but he was laughed out because everyone kept saying I C U P). Ontos, could not remember their real names, so he referred to them by their Minecraft usernames (Microsoft was like the Switzerland of this war, so both Apple and Android employees could legally buy their products, this was solely because no one wanted to live a life without Minecraft); zanzam042 and mey_meth609. In order to preserve their dignity, the iGods changed their names by one letter each, becoming Zanza and Meyneth.
In Alrest, Klaus had completely rejected his identity as an Apple Employee, thus he allowed life to do as it will. Though he did make iNdol’s inhabitants look like Apple Products, a move made out of nostalgia for his ancient past. As an iPeople, the iNdoline had longer than average lifespans, weighed 2lbs, and could play tetris. This made them the defacto religious power. A man by the name of iMalthus decided to climb the iTree, There, he found two shiny rocks. One rock turned into a big man. The other turned into a blond lady with depression. The big man decided to use his iWMDs to destroy an iLand, just cuz. Which made everyone want the depressed white girl to blow him up. Unfortunately, she accidentally blew up another iLand in the process. So, the populace decided to seal away the ultimate Apple Products at the bottom of the ocean.
In the iWorld, Zanza decided he was tired of Meyneth’s stupid Android world, so he decided to use his iSword to cut the Android in half, recreating the battle of the original world. He used iBioweapons to infiltrate the Mechonis, his iBioweapons glowed in the dark and had the same battery life as the iPhone127-DX, which allowed Meyneth to retaliate by getting them all stoned. Enraged that his master plan didn’t work and realizing that the biOnis was already at 10% power despite only being active for 3 minutes and 45 seconds, he knew that a sacrifice must be made to secure victory. He unleashed an army of iRachnids on the iAnts, extincting them permanently. With their liFe energy, he waged war with Mechonis. Like in his split of reality, this ancient rivalry resulted in a draw. While the biOnis had more firepower and a sleeker build, the Mechonis had more charisma and a 10 mile long sword. Realizing that he would have to go into iBernation, Zanza turned the telethia into iEntia for efficient storage (coloqually known as High Entia to make fun of Meyneth’s weed addiction, despite Meyneth having never smoked a blunt, for she preferred to use old-school cigars due to no longer having lungs to ruin). Meyneth, too, went into hibernation. Her Androids were very sad, so they built a statue in her honor and then chose to live on her disembodied arm.
Many years later, in both worlds, some british kid was collecting random garbage only to get attacked by a random crustacean. Which was not the worst part of their day. No, they would instead experience a single atrocity, at the hands of a guy with a white face, which they only might know to be a mask, only to then pick up their trusty iSword and fight a guy with black armor.
Sualk, Zanza’s attempt to make Ontos say his original name, only for Ontos to “glitch” and spell said name backwards. He decided that Sualk is too awkward to pronounce, so he changed his vessel’s name to Shulk. Then decided that he was going to kill every Android in all of existence. This lasted all of 3 weeks, when he met Ontos in person and realized that he was really fucking hot. Then he learned that Androids can be people too (for reference, this is propaganda on Monolith’s part). He then proceeded to make friends with Egil, who is sometimes referred to by his deadname, eGirl, by Zanza, who is officially the world’s first and only boomer (because he made the world go boom). Dickson, known as Dickdick by the nopon, could not let this slander stand. Despite smoking weed, Dickson was also transphobic and sexist, so he could not stand to see Zanza’s name being slandered by touching an eGirl. He did the only logical course of action and shot his son in the face (tho his aim was a bit shit because, unlike Meyneth, Dickson was smoking blunts, which caused him to hit Shulk’s heart instead). Ontos, enraged that Shulk no longer existed to make Zanza’s day slightly worst, decided to revive him for shits and giggles. This was secretly a mistake on Ontos’s part, because Shulk then proceeded to unexist the concept of Godhood, thus unintentionally banishing Ontos to the shadow realm.
Meanwhile, following the journey of Rex (who did not yet have enough testosterone to call himself T Rex). Pyra, who had initially called herself iFire, but decided to change the name after Addam was too stupid to understand the difference between “iFire” and “I Fire,” decided to revive Rex because unlike her creator, Pyra was not a transphobe. Though in Addam’s defense, he also didn’t know how to spell his own name, so perhaps iFire was expecting a bit too much from him when she told him her name. After fending off Bads and riding iZurda to iGoth (known as Torigoth to the local catgirls), Pyra allowed Rex to stare at her boobs from a nice low angle. Little did she know that Rex took this as an insult and immediately jumped off her. Pyra, taking this as a sign that being a fire type did not, in fact, make her hot, breathed a sigh of relief. While wandering aimlessly through the forest, iZurda decided to upgrade himself, becoming 10,000x lighter and becoming slightly easier to shove into your pocket, costing only the small fee of Rex’s entire house. Though this new model lacked any of the combative or transportive capabilities of its older counterpart, iZurda2 was more marketable due to closely resembling a plush toy. During their travels, Rex and Pyra met the self-proclaimed Queen of Anus, Nia and her butler, who had a passion for writing poetry despite his utter lack of thumbs. While Rex and Pyra walked everywhere, Nia rode pussy. They soon met a number of actual monarchs. As a terrorist, banned from setting foot on any nation, Nia got along well with these global superpowers. Bads would not let these happy times last. Thus, they kidnapped Pyra. Jin even punched her before telling Rex that he was bad at Driving, which Rex took insult to despite cars not existing. So much that Rex considered giving up his quest. Nia snapped him out of his downward spiral by lovingly punching him in the face so hard that he was sent to the emergency room for a concussion. When he returned, he’d forgotten everything about his journey and decided to go home. Somehow, this was the correct decision, as he found the secrets to the universe in some cave. This inspired Nia to reveal her true powers to Rex. Like Rex, Nia was also trans. But unlike Rex, she was so good at it that she unlocked the ability to give bigots cancer. Using that power, they saved Pyra and Mythra, who decided to become green and call themselves Siri. Rex, Nia, and Pyra ascended the iTree, where they met Klaus. Rex wondered how Klaus was able to maintain his impeccable abs despite the rest of his body being withered away and the man clearly having never exorcised once in the past 1.7 billion years. It was a far more interesting question than listening to the man’s 30 minutes long senile rant. Rex eventually shut him up by telling him he was Gay for Bads. He then left the room to go kill Bads.
With Klaus finally fucking dead, the timeline tried to recover. Unfortunately, this caused a plethora of merge errors, which would result in the utter annihilation of everything. The worlds used radios to communicate, and decided to create backups of their population, with one person from each acting as the failsafe should the directive fail. As the only existing monarch, Melia became the representative of Shulkonis (a name they agreed on because it would eternally annoy Shulk). Meanwhile, Nia became the representative of Alrest because everyone agreed that it would be funny to officially crown her Queen of Anus. During this period of time, Nia had sex with T Rex’s entire polycule and they had 3 children, Nio, Mia, and Mio (it took them three attempts to get the name right, which is why they had so many kids). Shulk did not get to have sex, because Shulkonis was under threat from the Shadow Realm kept tears holes in reality that an army of iZombies would come out of. They called it “the Fog” because it looked nothing like fog. Despite each world’s woes and hoes, the day was upon them that Shulkonis and Alrest would fuse. Unfortunately, Alvis reappeared from the Shadow Realm and cut Shulk’s arm off. Offended by this behavior, Shulk built a cool prosthetic for himself. Dunban was a bit envious that Shulk got to have a functioning right arm but he didn’t. Unfortunately, that was Shulk’s final invention because he accidentally gave his prosthetic arm super sharp laser claws, causing him to laser claw everything he tried to touch. He and T Rex then gathered an Army consisting of 7 people to wage war against the iMonad. Riku, the first of Riki’s son’s (Riki also had 14 kids in an attempt to figure out how to name them), created an iKatana during that battle. Having missed the memo that the iSwords were supposed to have names vaguely reminiscent of soup, decided to call his iSword the Lucky Seven, in honor of the seven people that tried to stab Alvis in the face.
This failed. Instead Z, who suspiciously had nothing to do with Zanza, decided it would be funny to create iOnios. Nia, having finally realized that she was, in fact, the sole ruler of the Militaristic Nation of Anus, decided, for the sake of her people’s dignity, to change the name by a single letter, thus resulting in Agnus. Melia, also changed her nation’s name from Shulkonis to Keves. After Shulk’s death, it seemed rather unnecessary to refer to Shulkonis as such. While all of this was happening, Riki went on an adventure to stick the Monapon in some cave (he was sick and tired of having it in his inventory). His actual biter, of course, was in the ruins of Frontier Village, which was located approximately 23 meters above where he stuck the Monapon. Nia and Melia, tired of Z’s bullshit, decided to take a nap. When they woke up, a group of nine-year-olds started lecturing them on the meaning of life. Deciding that iOnios was not worth saving from these kids, Nia and Melia went home. Realizing that said nine-year-olds might lose against the embodiment of procrastination, Melia decides now is the time to activate Alcamech. Nia gets the memo and teleports her house into Anus Castle. To her delight, the people of Anus Castle reconfigured the mech so that her house would not appear as a buttplug. The kids, upon being asked what to do with the fate of the universe, decide to press Ctrl+Z.

The Lily of the Valley
Written by Gene 2019
Tallbacka---a place in Finland. Not everyone knows about this place. One of them is me.
We had to travel for hours on a boat crossing the North Atlantic Ocean to France. Then from France we rented a car. There were disagreements at first on what car we will have but in the end we chose Mazda CX-5. They said it’s a great car for long and non-stop travel. After we finished stuffing the luggage in the back our group hopped on our silver ride and quickly drove up to North.
The first few hours were mesmerizing; we passed Paris, Belgium, then to Berlin, where we made a quick stop to grab some breakfast. I decided to have “Rissoto Al Pollo” that cost 9.90 Euro. I am actually glad it’s worth it.
Then we head back on the road. This time I drove. My crew was like Medusa’s victims as they slept. Not moving and clearly has no sign of waking up after that good breakfast. This time we passed Poland, Warsaw, Latvia (My friend Robert offered to drive from here), and then we crossed St. Petersburg to Finland.
After 36 hours of driving and sleeping. We arrived in Tallbacka.
We wanted to take a rest but we are far behind our itinerary that’s why we continued to our client’s restaurant. Our car stop in front of a small red diner shop walled with large windows that a moose can fit in. Above hang a wooden sign etched with gold letters that said “Ruoka Talo”.
“What are we waiting for?” Sinn said as she unloads our equipment. As if on cue, a lady came out and smiled at us.
“Hi, My name is Fe Virtanen. Owner of Ruoka Talo, I’m glad you came all the way here. Such a small town isn’t it?” The wrinkles in her eyes told us how old this lady was. Yet, she’ s very charming. Green forest eyes, protruding nose, red lips, blue linen dress and wild vibrant blond hair. She exactly has the European charm. She reached out her hand and greeted us one by one. She gestured us towards her office deep within the diner. We followed.
After an hour of briefing, we took out our cameras and started to take pictures of the place. Robert and Sinn shoot the street view, Jason and Glem setup inside the diner. I alone handled the kitchen.
I slowly opened the door and came across a girl humming to an unfamiliar music. She sat on the top of the table holding her knees together. She looks like Mrs. Virtanen. Though her hair is darker and she wears a crazy and noisy pair of floral camisole and leggings. She was fumbling some strings in her hands. but before I could figure why. She noticed me. She fumbled down to the floor and smiled at me. A warm glow started to engulf my chest. The way her mouth crest at the end reminded me of the moon smiling down on me on a cold night.
She reached out her hand. “ Parcy Virtanen.” I shook her hand then she ran out of the kitchen.
At 10 PM we finished the shoot. Mrs. Virtanen offered us a meal before we went to our rented house just a few blocks away. The truth is the diner was shutting down, Mrs. Virtanen book us to capture the diner for memoirs and documentary. She said that the diner will become a book shop that the town always wanted. “It’s a bitter sweet filling.” Mrs. Virtanen shared her feelings. I actually felt guilty half-heated responding to the conversation because my mind is occupied by someone else---t’s Parcy. She was sitting across from me. Chugging down a cup of coffee. She glances at me from time to time and everytime I catch her, she quickly looks away. When we finished the meal, we all decided to settle in.
Mrs. Virtanen informed us she has another engagement for tonight, “Parcy will come along with you to check the pictures in my stead.” With a quick reassuring smile. she left.
11:00, we arrive at the house. It was a small comfy place. 2 bedrooms, a small kitchen, open living room where all the equipment is sprawled everywhere. And a large yard showing the view of the unfamiliar Tallbacka.
After changing into more comfy clothes. Tidying up some of our luggage. We all agreed to stay in the living room for the pictures evaluation. I sat next to Parcy and Glem. While Jason and Sinn are busy debating what camera is best for shooting a fruit. Then Parcy suddenly broke in.
“Whichever camera you use, isn’t a fruit still a fruit?” We all laughed.
Robert finally came in holding a tray of hot chocolates and cookies. After all, sugar is best consumed after a long tiring day. Grabbing our own cups, we proceed to the photo evaluation.
Hours passed but none of us seem tired. So we proceed to play cards and share each other's stories. It was a simple and comfy night. I also get to know Parcy more. Apparently, she is a fan of Haruki Murakami. Parcy especially loves “What I Talk About When I Talk About Running”. When she visited Australia once, she got to try Zumbo’s Macarons.
“I would die for it to taste again.” Her accent slips showing how excited she was.
“I should try making macarons.” I mumbled. But Parcy seems to have heard me and gave me a list of reasons why I should. When she finished, she suddenly beamed her heart-stopping smile.
I am definitely making those macarons.
Soon morning came; my crews were snoring away to their dreamland. We accidentally slept in the living room. Well, with all what happened last night, I wouldn’t find it strange. We laughed our ass out, designed the materials, printed the products and decorated the final album. It all happened in just one night. I got up and went up to the kitchen to grab a glass of water. Wadling through the counter, I caught a glimpse of a person and in my surprise it was Parcy---stretching outside.
I decided to step outside.
Now, with morning light, you can see the Tallbacka’s beauty more. The scenery was breathtaking. ITrees shoot up to the sky, houses glow as the sunrise hits. The smell of grass and fresh baked bread dances through our nose. Singing of the birds sends melody to our ears. Mist made me forget that I haven’t washed my face yet. It was like a watercolor painting came to life. I wish the moment could stop right now. I wish I could stay here, but I need to go back. So, the only thing I can do is remember---remember the brief fleeting tranquil time at a small town at the edge of Finland.
“You can go back here if you want. The doors of our town are always open to people like you.” Parcy said as if she read my mind.
“Thank you, but I don’t think I would come here soon though.” I rubbed my freezing hand.
“I didn’t say when, silly Ruby. Even 5 years later, 10, maybe 25 years. As long as you remember to come back here it’ll be alright. Also as long it can help you, even for a moment to run away from romahdus--- breakdown. ”
We broke into a series of laughter that rippled through the waking town of Tallbacka.
An hour later, we are loading our luggage onto the van again. Today was our last day in this peaceful town. We want to tour a little but we still have things we need to do back in New York. Reluctantly, we head straight back to Ruoka Talo, to take Parcy back and to give Mrs. Virtanen our finished product and farewells.
Mrs. Virtanen was decorating her diner for a closing party when we arrived. She welcomed us with a big warm hug and a grin. Her smile grew bigger when we showed her the product we’ve done. Some tears might have left her eyes. She scanned through the small book we gave her. The book contains the diner history and its memories and most amazing moments through its legacy as it stood in the small town of Tallbacka.
“I love this!” Mrs. Virtanen's voice broke. After fanning her tears out, she proceeded to kiss our cheeks one by one.
“Looks like our job here is done.” Robert exclaimed.
Mrs. Virtanen pushed us back in her diner. “Oh no not yet, what about the payment?”
We laughed. All of us are heading to the office but Parcy suddenly stole me to the side. “Here.” She handed me a key. “When you decide to come back, come to the house written in there. That house the only thing isn’t changing here.” I was touched. I actually never thought that I’ll be able to come back to Tallbacka, but here’s Parcy---hoping.
“Thank you, Parcy.” I reply. My crew got the money and is now sharing farewells. I approached Mrs. Virtanen and gave her a hug. After a lot more goodbyes we get to our silver car.
“Come back, okay?” Parcy’s eyes were shining even more than last night. Her voice seems to linger in my mind too.
I nodded from the shotgun seat. Then we hit the road back to France. I look back from the rear mirror at the shrinking town of Tallbacka. Parcy still waving with at us with a hopeful grin.
I’ll come back. I whispered to the winds.

Miyawaki forests
One City Plan goals
Bristol Tree Forum has been working hard to support the aim in Bristol’s One City Plan to double the tree canopy by 2046. Our focus has been on retaining existing mature trees on the one hand whilst encouranging the planting of new trees on the other. Increasing tree canopy is a valuable strategy towards that other vital goal of net Carbon neutrality by 2030.
The One City Plan has other goals which may be in competition with canopy increase. The most obvious is the need for more housing and the ensuing loss of existing trees and green space. As we have shown with our CO2 calculator, replacement plantings take decades to balance the loss of a mature tree.
Another conflict is with the need to tackle the problem of declining biodiversity - The One City Plan visualises that “by 2050 ..biodiversity is at a level never before seen in the city” Unfortunately that goal may well be realised, but not in a good way.
Conflict between biodiversity and tree canopy arises because, whilst an isolated tree planted in a street or open space may go on to create a large canopy, interactions with other plants are needed to create biodiversity. On the other hand, natural rewilding will generate increased biodiversity but tree canopy will be slow to develop.
The Miyawaki method
The Japanese plant ecologist Akira Miyawaki observed that ancient forests provided the greatest biodiversity but of course take centuries to grow. He wondered if newly planted areas, particularly degraded urban areas, could be engineered to grow rapidly to achieve similar levels in years rather than decades. The ‘Miyawaki method’ requires species selection to mimic the old forest, extensive ground preparation and dense planting of a large number of species. In Japan, most of the native forest had been lost or replaced by exotic conifers, so Miyawaki’s first problem was to discover the species in the original deciduous forest and grow enough of them for planting.
Miyawiki inspired a Toyota engineer, Shubhendhu Sharma to found afforestt which has developed over 130 forests in 10 countries. Shubhendhu’s TED talk sparked global interest in the idea of developing small urban areas with dense planting. In the Netherlands, IVN (Institute for Nature Education and Sustainability) worked with Shubhendu to develop the idea for temperate conditions and plant over 100 ‘Tiny Forests’ of around 200 sq m with a planting density of 3 per sq m, each with a strong educational focus.
a 3-year old forest in Belgium ( source Urban Forests)
Evaluation
The claim is that Miyawaki forests can rapidly achieve the level of biodiversity found in mature forest. A detailed study of the first two 'Tiny Forests’ developed by IVN found that soil biota after only 2 years approached the level in nearby mixed forest. Animal biodiverity was also considerable, covering 176 species. A report after 5 years is expected soon. These results are impressive but need to be compared with other planting schemes for a true comparison.
The UK experience
In the UK, take-up has been much slower. A few eco organisations have started to offer support to groups wishing to develop Miyawaki forests. Earthwatch, partnering with IVN, is supporting a scheme in Witney, Oxfordshire. Sugi are involved in an ambitious ‘Forest of Thanks’ in Barking and Dagenham.
Whilst researching this topic, I was delighted to find that Bristol City Council is planning a Tiny Forest in Southmead, as part of the One Tree per Child initiative, and there is interest in creating one in Caerphilly. It seems as if this approach to increasing biodiversity AND canopy coverage is finally taking off.
Where to start
Looking round the internet, the range of organisations now promoting the Miyawaki approach or its variants is rather baffling.
For me, the best starting point are the materials generously developed especially for self-help forest makers by Daan Bleichrodt of IVN. Daan provides not only an excellent handbook but a short online course, part of which is a most helpful and honest section on the pitfalls and ways to overcome them. Beyond the technical issues of soil analysis and species selection, the support and involvement of local groups is critical: schools to help with planting, weeding and long-term engagement; citizens scientists to monitor progress; local residents to help with watering, tidying litter and keeping the place safe; the media to help with fund raising. The woodland needs to be owned by the community rather than imposed on them and of course good project management is also a necessity.
The bottom line
Miyawaki or Tiny Forests are a promising approach to rewilding urban areas and we look forward to being involved in future schemes. However their contribution to overall tree canopy is limited by their size. In Bristol, to double tree canopy from 11.9 % (from the iTree Eco study) we need to add 1300 hectares of canopy. To achieve this by the Miyawaki method alone, we would have to plant 65,000 tiny forests, a vivid illustration of the scale of the challenge.

Vaping teens and booty calls, making out in cinema halls. A youth devoured by the glass screen. We take a bite everyday from the Apple in our pockets, the Apple of the forbidden iTree. Pages unturned nothing learned,
Now, only a Black Mirror reflects humanity.
