What would make you feel good?

mostly a job i feel good about doing. where i wake up and i know i’m doing good. and it feels good. after that, just a good life you know? a partner that reciprocates and that i grow with, materialistic things that bring comfort and security, living a life that’s kind to the earth. that stuff

i like the thought of tearing down any reality that hope players create. other than i think rage players should be able to be unaffected as well as people with possibly secondary rage aspects, but just in general even non-rage players tearing down hope realities.

This Coral Restoration Technique Is 'Electrifying' a Balinese Village
The technique is also changing attitudes and inspiring locals to preserve their natural treasures
Steve Baragona

There are two parts of this story: The first is that a coral restoration technique called Biorock (which involves running extremely low voltage electricity through metal structures that coral are attached to) is helping to grow new reefs 2-5 times faster than normal.

But the second part of the story is even more important. This new coral technique has allowed people in the small fishing village of Pemuteran to become involved in the conservation of the ecosystem that they rely on for food.

After years of dynamite fishing and cyanide poisoning, the reefs in their region had been damaged and fish stocks plummeted as a result. Once the fishermen understood the relationship between healthy reefs and healthy fish stocks, they became invested in restoring their reefs and even began reporting fishermen from other villages who were continuing to use damaging practices.

One of the workers on the coral restoration project, who was originally doubtful that it would work, said:

“We started taking care of it like a garden. And we started to love it.”

Another reminder that taking care of nature often also means taking care of people.
