Besprechung des illustrierten Buchs Wilding: How to Bring Wildlife Back – An Illustrated Guide über das Rewilding einer ehemaligen Milchproduktions-Farm in England durch Isabella Tree und ihnen Mann. Ein Ergebnis ist, dass der in Ruhe gelassene Boden nach etwa 20 Jahren allein so viel CO2 aufnimmt wie es sonst gepflanzte Bäume tun würden. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/feb/25/rewilding-climate-change-biodiversity-isabella-tree-nature-planet-farming

Title: Rewilding’ Parts of the Planet Could Have Big Climate Benefits

A really useful example of this is from the podcast, Reply All. They have a segment called "Yes, Yes, No". In it they analyze what I think of as really dense tweets and memes. Here is a list from Reddit so you can find them. Are there teachers working to help students to analyze like they do in Reply All? I find myself swimming in riptides like this quite often. I call it 'rewilding'.

That feeling of self satisfaction is a happy end per se. I think it is a characteristic of rewilding if you are looking to assess that.

Really appreciate how you get the idea that rewilding is often about creating some new niche, a new ecology for an existing idea to live in combined with the willing suspension of disbelief that what you are doing is even adjacently possible.

This is exactly what I feel when I re-wild. I need to constantly remind myself (note: re-mind so close to re-wild) that the world is shiny and new forever if we will have it be so. The directions for rewilding can be surprising but they can also be very clear and extensive. I suppose the only rule is that you make the rewilding, even those you get from others, your own.
