Artificial Refugia
(slrpnk.net)
If this isn't the most dystopian thing you've read today I don't know what is.
Artificial Refugia (such as bat boxes) can be used to somewhat offset lost habitat, but it's like replacing a rainforest with a plastic plant and calling it conservation. Further, unless they are meticulously designed, they can act as traps (trap animals inside), snack plates for predators, or even 'cook' the animals inside them.
Is there fault or advantage with this practice?
They're putting plastic balls into fields for mice that chew everything. So if you want to efficiently distribute micro plastics into the environment, I can't think of a better solution.
I think they were just making tennis puns ๐
They might only be 15, love.
Love means nothing to them
So, this no longer holds true?
mea culpa!
