Save the local bee species, please, not the commercial ones.

At least here in my city (Curitiba - somewhere in the southern cone), the city hall has been plopping beehouses across the city, all of them with native species. That has been going on for a few years, and I did notice them far more often (they go crazy for my sage).

I feel like other places in the Americas could / should do the same.

Yes... An inexpensive idea, how dare you suggest such an easy solution... They need at least 5 consultants to reach a more expensive solution.... 🙄

That's a great idea. Hopefully, while adopting the most recent understanding that the overwinter huddling behavior is due to the insufficient design of artificial hives, not typical behavior. They should be cozy, too.

Temperatures here rarely go below 0°C, and when it does it's often just for the night, so huddling isn't a concern. What could be a concern would be summer overheating, but they actually put some thought on where to install those bee houses, they're mostly shadowed by trees.

Pic related. Mind you, this is urban perimeter, around a gov building.

No wonder billionaire Bruce Wayne fought against her so much.

because shes a mass murderer? she didnt even care about the earth until the 1990s

and even then, bruce wayne would expose the ceo and ruin his life without killing him (as seen in batman the animated series)

Did any of Batman's villains have characterization before the 90s? I thought they were just gimmicky villains-of-the-week.

[–] vaultdweller013@sh.itjust.works 1 points 7 months ago

Joker, Killer crock, and Penguin kinda had it. Batman the Animated series did a good job reinventing a lot of characters, a prome example is Mr. Freeze.

People change!

Ivy didn't change for the better. For example, Poison Ivy hates vegans for eating plants. The problem with that line of thinking is that cows are made of grass and corn, so eating a kilo of beef ends up using a lot more plants than a kilo. But Ivy hasn't thought about that fact, because she doesn't have a plan. She's just angry.

She's just angry

Considering the state of the world, I can't blame her.

[–] MBM@lemmings.world 1 points 7 months ago

I get how she could be upset about eating leaves or roots, but fruits are made to be eaten!

[–] jaybone@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Poison Angry. Maybe she should be killing the cows for eating the grass. What does she eat btw?

According to my "research" mostly Catwomen and Harley Quinn.

Exposing CEOs doesn't do anything because the rich have the government in their pocket. Remember the Panama papers? Yeah, that accomplished nothing.
