Cool. Well, I understand you have in the first chapter-- so you have a story, something about a monster from the Black Lagoon and a man-- there's no two ways about it.He has half a butt.
protesting about the Moses Gates, the 78 mechanical gates that are set to be installed in the lagoon of Venice and rather like the Danish king, Kanut, are there to drive back the tides, because the aqua alta, very much like the shoreline environment, is not kind. As youwalk around the city, you start to see the damage that the sea water, and particularly the salt, ravages on the brickwork. You actually start seeing the very material substances
told that Jacob Scherr actually, one of the lawyers, got a call from Homero Aridjis, who is a poet from Mexico that Mitsubishi was planning to build a big salt plant down in this lagoon where the grey whales come down from Alaska, the Bering Sea, and it’s a nursery for the baby whales. And if you can imagine what a large salt plant would do; it was an International Heritage Site, a UN Heritage site. But bringing in the boats, sucking up all the water, and then
You can see there the Rosette, the instrument I told you. It has inside a lagoon .
You can see there the Rosette, the instrument I told you. And in the lagoon , the productivity was really high.

This then gets put in a barrel. just dump behind the plantations in giant lagoons .
So Austin is referring to this character. And this character is the Creature from the Black Lagoon . And this is what you see when you walk through the entrance into SEAL training in the compound.
It's going to look corny. It's going to look like "The Creature from the Black Lagoon ," like a '50s film. I want to go out onto the open sea and shoot there.
For two reasons, or three reasons, actually. The first is the methods they used in Nandikadal Lagoon , when they finished off the last 50,000 Tamils, were not methods that we could ever use in the West in terms of indiscriminate slaughter and disregard for human rights.
So we threw back and forth a bunch of layout sketches. We can now start seeing mountains and the surrounding lagoon .
A lot of public attention was brought to it and it was a great victory. And those members came in and have pretty much stayed and membership has also grown since then. John Adams: I'll finish on that. The lagoon in San Ignacio -- we didn't know whether we could save this nursery, which is quite a remarkable place and I urge you to see it. It's eco-tourism now. The Mexican fishermen take you out in the boats, the baby whales come up and kiss you and it really is true--
Decolonization means understanding that the way things are isn’t the way they have to be. Just ask the Native activists who are currently working to bring Hawaii’s Native fish lagoons back. A non-profit group called Āina Momona, or “fertile land,” is leading a community effort to restore the land and teach a new generation
And this is far more than our croplands can possibly absorb, which is how we used to manage animal waste. So what farmers are doing is collecting all this stuff in giant manure lagoons , which is what these pits are called. They're basically just untreated, unlined cesspools of animal waste.
To the north, there is a little bay. And to the south, there is a very large lagoon with little islets that protect it. And prior to the invention of artificial harbors, when you wanted to sail from Phoenicia, Lebanon of today,
And there's space in between so the manure and the urine can fall into a lagoon beneath them.
something here because it's just crazy and it's beautiful." It's like the Blue Lagoon , the water is crystal clear, even those it
For centuries, Native Hawaiians had a diverse, self-sufficient food system. On the island of Moloka’i, Native-made fish lagoons once fed about a million people. But after Hawaii became a U.S. territory in the late 19th century, millions of acres of land were stolen.
But after Hawaii became a U.S. territory in the late 19th century, millions of acres of land were stolen. And settlers turned much of it into sugarcane and pineapple plantations, destroying or abandoning the fish lagoons in the process. Fast-forward to today and you’ll find over 80% of Hawai’i’s food gets imported from elsewhere.
Gavitak California State University Monterey Bay. They would have seen a hilltop about 100 foot high bluff in red. Then 75 to 100-foot high ring around a beautiful lagoon that would
have just been a paradisaical place to fish. There would have just been incredible sea life in that lagoon . And then this would have been looking from North Cortes to South Cortes.
walk around the city, you start to see the damage that the sea water, and particularly the salt, ravages on the brickwork. You actually start seeing the very material substances within the city of Venice, the very fabric of being digested away by the giant stomach of the elements and the lagoon substances. You can see effervescence here; quite liberally, it's like the icing that's been dusted over the walls. You can also see how very much the marble and even the concrete that's been stuffed in the holes in the brickwork is suffering
a way that illustrates how living technology is qualitively different to the industrial and digital technologies that we currently know. So, in contrast to the Moses Gates, which propose to keep back the tide, what we've decided was that the protocells could actually be released into the lagoon and programmed to move away from the light-filled canals, where they'd make their way to the darkened foundations of Venice, which, as you probably know, are built upon woodpiles. On reaching this low energy threshold, they can then produce
That I don't have to worry about, was this a farm where they keep the manure in lagoons outside and it inevitably runs off into local waterways and gets sprayed through aerosol
