Here in coastal Cascadia, our native Oak Meadow Grasslands play an important role within many First Nations cultures and are the most biodiverse ecosystem we have. Sadly, they’re also the most threatened, down to less that 5% of their native range in BC alone.

A background in both art and zoology has led me to working with our own species as well as a bunch of others. I like group or collective working, collaboration and mixed discipline problem solving. I’m interested in the nurturing of social capital & natural capital and the impacts they have, to a lesser degree, on economic capital and to a greater degree on the functionality of commnuities. Note: I think ‘capital’ is an unfortunate term, for me, in this case, social and natural capitals are more about healthy stocks of informal community value and le...

That's the relatively new way to describe this third kingdom of life on earth: the vast number of species of fungi which aren't plants nor animals, but are a different branch on the tree of life. And it turns out that fungi are a lot more important than many in the past have realized. In fact, they seem to play a major role in just how much carbon the soil is storing. Certain fungi, it seems, are particularly effective at sequestering...
