So, it's nice when folks with money can install solar, heat pumps, buy EVs, and be all high and mighty about being "Green". But for most people, those things are out of reach. We need #ClimateSolutions that are accessible, affordable, and don't trash the environment! #SolarPunk #SolarPunkSunday #PracticalSolarPunk #Earth4All

Last for today / a while. most of day working on polytunnel ground: clearing obstructive "good soil" piles and areas near NE end with black soil/bracken root. sieving to west-most cut-in-half IBC-frame raised bed, lined with ground-cover fabric. 20 mm cylindrical screen laying on top of bed -- _very ergonomic_, but really needs worst gravel re-sieving with 12 mm sieve - lot of it but too wet. at least it's out of way. medium size spoil stone/gravel back to NE end paths. barrow also emptied of [waterlogged] soil. drizzle by dusk again. 6 pine poles for the final hoop cut and prepared, waiting to go in. still. how about #practicalsolarpunk ?

... 4 months after the pic/post of the #practicalsolarpunk #polytunnel in construction ⬆️ - here it is again. Thanks to it being too hot to work outside this afternoon. Yesterday around 5pm, also over 37 C, it was actually cooler in there than outside. 🧵 /1 -- almost = angle to Feb photo ⬆️ -detail in alt txt. #growYourOwn

The pic of the Hokkaido squashes racing across the polytunnel roof in the prev post ⬆️ was taken 12 June. Then they got hit by the heat-"wave" which would have been over 40 C up there, and decided enough leaf!! But they kept on with the fruit-making business. ⬇️ more in alt txt #growYourOwn #gardening #practicalSolarPunk
