Hello dear Lemmy user, have you heard about our dear !solarpunk

the_q , in Feds spread $1 billion for tree plantings among US cities to reduce extreme heat and benefit health

I mean, good I guess, but planting a few trees where millions used to grow seems counterintuitive.

LastYearsPumpkin ,

Oh, so we do nothing? Yeah, let’s just wait it out until someone magically invents some perfect solution that we can implement all at once.

Or… we chip away at the issue until it gets solved. Lots and lots of small fixes that add up… just like how lots and lots of small problems caused the issue in the first place.

the_q ,

It’s passed time to chip away at it. That was 30 years ago. The solution is to stop buying, but even you hopeful fools won’t give up your things and conveniences.

Plant your trees.

“The best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago. The second best is now.”

What’s the alternative? There isn’t space for everyone to live in a cottage in the woods. Cities are great for density of people leaving more land to be forests. And I’d love it if cities encouraged and protected natural biome parks, especially cities that were once forested. But also this is the first step that can lead to urban forests

quindraco , in London police apologise and pay compensation to women held at vigil

Why doesn’t the article detail what the lawsuit was about?

520 , (edited )

It does.

The women, Dania Al-Obeid and Patsy Stevenson, were among those who were held by officers and then taken away in handcuffs after police said the gathering was in breach of COVID-19 lockdown rules and the crowd had refused orders to disperse.

Basically:

  • woman gets murdered by a police officer. Not shot as a suspect or as an innocent bystander, straight up kidnapped, raped and murdered.
  • people hold a vigil for her. Attendees are mostly women in fear for their safety and angry at the police for their record of misogyny.
  • police respond by breaking up the vigil, citing COVID-19 restrictions, which were very strict at the time.

grayman , in Watch: Billionaire CEO says unemployment 'has to jump' to put 'arrogant' workers in their place

He’s not wrong about that, but I think the root of the problem is with management. There’s a problem with lazy and terrible management, not workers. At the company I work for, there are teams and teams of lazy good for nothing people everywhere. Most of them maybe do an hour or two of real work every week. When I talk to them, they are bored, aimless, and feel as though their work doesn’t really matter. I strongly believe it’s due to lack of leadership. Not management. Leadership. The department has no real goals. There are no projects solving real problems. Everything is just maintaining some janky tech debt or building some manual process because management likes their spreadsheets a certain way.

When there’s a liquidation of management and a culling down to actual leaders, the workers will want to work. They’ll find things to do because that’s what people do in a good environment under a good leader.

The arrogance is primarily a management problem. There are too many in power that are at our above their level of incompetence. It’s the Peter Principle on steroids.
