Beyond rescue ecomodernism: the case for agrarian localism restated | Small Farm Future

Our modern culture is good at heroic, high-tech mitigation of specific and immediate acute problems. It’s not very good at long-term, low-tech cultural adaptation that mitigates against these specific and immediate acute problems from arising.

Is there time? Best to assume that there is, and start the transition now.

Oh, to be able to travel by Zeppelin. Meanwhile, I think the idea of never flying anywhere for less than a week is a good stop-gap, and more trains when possible.

Lady Eva seems to have given up on Odessa. Sara left Odessa, now anchored at Bandirma, TR, cargo unknown (by me). Jasmin Queen and Noran loitering at anchor south of Istanbul, maybe still en route to Odessa or Chornomorsk.

New in Odessa: Ali S, Ganosaya, Zhe Hai

You go away for a few days and ... nothing much changes.

Razoni could be anywhere, not reporting position. Navi Star got to Foynes an hour or so ago. Polarnet still anchored off Pendik, TR. Rojen left Italy, currently anchored off Cephalonia. Riva Wind still at Iskenderun.

On a related note, tracking the vessels is easy enough. How I can find out more about the cargo, what is loaded and unloaded and all that?
