Can somebody help me understand this please: why would we ever give out carbon credits for not chopping down a forest? βHereβs a forest we shouldnβt cut down anyway. Because weβre not cutting it down, now you can burn more fossil fuels!β

These stocky little marsupials sort of look like a cross between a baby brown bear, koala & pig. They have a pouch like other marsupials, but itβs backwards which prevents dirt from entering as they burrow.
At just over 3 ft long, theyβre absolutely charming. But millions of years ago, herds of giant wombats as large as rhinoceros roamed southern #Australia. #wildlife #photography #SharedPlanet
Steam Deck:
Can't work out the logistics to ship to #Australia.
Nintendo Switch:
Ships new models to Australia almost immediately.
And don't give me the 'money' argument - a quick search shows that #ValveSoftware is worth about US$10 billion, whilst #Nintendo is worth about US$13 billion, so it's not *that* much of a difference... Our #gaming market is also larger than many of the countries the #SteamDeck is currently available in now.

Fruit has thin tough skin, spongey/crisp flesh (like a lillypilly), lots of seeds, no distinctive smell (just vegetative).
No idea of taste, since Iβm not eating random red fruit found on a bush that given the spikes, is clearly designed not to be eaten.
