Postcard from Finland. Water has run through everything I've done, thought, or read this week. Here, I'll try to pull some of those streams together. I'm leaning heavily and gratefully on links and quotes this week, as I'm supposed to be on vacation!
Thank you so much for sharing Priscilla's and others' work, John! So important to understand what structures (physical but also legal and cultural) make these disasters so awful.
Congratulations to your wife! Wow, though, very sorry about the other swimmer, though. That sounds awful.
Thank you for drawing these streams of thought together John. As an islander and fellow water obsessive I'm delighted to discover your Substack. Greetings across the sea from Orkney!
This is such an important body of work John! The interconnectedness of nature is mysterious. Everything is related from land theft to climate change, from water circuits to wildfires. Thank you for bringing in the insights together in such a brisk and cohesive read! And also for referencing the wonderful writers and their important contributions to the ongoing of this conversation.
I for one did not know that Finland’s carbon emission is the fifth largest! That is insane but I have faith that the neutrality will be achieved sooner rather than later. Finland has always proved itself.
It is heartbreaking to learn about the passing of the swimmer, must have been horrible to witness such a thing! Sports people are the best, what a tragedy! But congratulations to you and your wife for her achievement.
Water follows me everywhere
