Exactly 45 years ago a whole mountain exploded: Mount Saint Helens.

It was an incredible disaster and people thought that something like an #ecoysystem would never come back on the burnt ground. It was extinction.

Then came the famous pocket #gophers. Listen to the story how they restored a whole landscape: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/

Two pictures with a man on a snowy mountain. On the first pic he stands and watches another mountain with a lot of dark smoke coming out. On the second pic he sits. The other mountain is now only smoke, completely exploded. John "Jack" V. Christianson took these photos from Mt. Adams, 54 km to the east, as his friend reacted to the eruption at 8:32 am on 18 May 1980.

#Siletz Celebrate Historic #LandBack Deal

Tribe’s focus will be #restoration, #preservation and #cultural uses like #FirstFoods for the 2,000-acre site at the base of #TableRocks in Southern #Oregon.

by Nika Bartoo-Smith, Underscore + ICT January 17, 2025

"The property was purchased directly from the previous landowner. The #NatureConservancy preserves a #ConservationEasement on the land. The Siletz will continue to work closely with The Nature Conservancy and the BLM across the properties in the region to emphasize conservation and restoration.

Expanding access to first foods

"Moving forward, the tribe’s goal is to create opportunities for Siletz tribal members to access the historically significant land while safeguarding its character. The nation plans to work on preservation and restoration, focusing on protecting the natural area rather than developing it.

“'There will be big opportunities for restoration and enhancement of the food plants themselves,' [Robert] Kentta said. '[And] also enhancing tribal members’ access to use of and reconnection with those resources that we’ve been separated from.'

"Kentta mentioned some important first foods of the region that he hopes will become a focus at the property, including #camas, #tarweed and #yampah root. The land will also be used for other cultural purposes.

"Chairman Pigsley spoke of her hope that future generations of Siletz people will be able to go up to the rocks, hearing important stories and learning about the plant and animal relatives all around."

A growing #LandBack movement has been returning Indigenous homelands to the #descendants of those who lived there for millennia before European settlers arrived. That has seen #NativeAmerican tribes taking a greater role in #restoring rivers and lands to how they were before they were expropriated.

Last week, a 2.2-acre parking lot was returned to the #Ohlone people where they established the first human settlement beside #SanFranciscoBay 5,700 years ago.

#Oyster fight: The humble sea creature could hold the key to #restoring #CoastalWaters . #Developers hate it. Revitalizing #oyster farms and wild oyster #reefs could undo decades of #environmental #destruction on our coasts. The story of oyster #aquaculture in the #Delaware Inland Bays—about 32 square miles of water draining into the #AtlanticOcean that make up a 320-square-mile watershed—is an object lesson for the rest of the world. technologyreview.com/2023/10/1
