Forests play a crucial role in providing precipitation to agricultural areas, importantly supporting crop production and global trade activities. A recent study published in Nature Water emphasizes that to manage global food risks, it is essential to conserve forests located upwind of agricultural regions.
Yeeeaaah it is….
Honestly, if it’s public knowledge now then it’s already being leveraged against us.
I’m always so torn on publically available knowledge.

Half the time the worst guy you know somehow uses it to create the Baby Killer 9000.
Same goes with open source code. Love it, wouldn’t be here (or anywhere) without it, but god will private companies try to use it to kill us all. Turns out the real tragedy of the commons was shitheads trying to privatize it and use it against us.
Kinda reminds me of Utah Philips. Said something like “I just won’t sue you” if you were small or doing good with his songs. But set up something to collect royalties from bigger fish.
Totally agree, just merely pointing out that the baby killer 9000 is almost always under development and being updated well before the information makes it to us.
