Imbolc Hare Moon
Ancientrailsgreatwheel.com has not gotten much attention so far, but this is its first month. That’s ok by me since I plan a significant change in its content and intended audience. It will become, by Beltane, or May 1st, a blog focused on climate adaptation and mitigation here in Minnesota with a special focus on the metro area. It’s title, Great Wheel, will remain the same for now.
Since most of the climate adaptation story will be told locally, having a place where resources and experiences are easily available will be a real service. In addition, the climate mitigation story will only grow in importance as the years add up, so Great Wheel will be in a good position to document and comment on Minnesota’s part of that global story.
There will be news, resources and comment. I plan to run it as a hybrid with magazine long form journalism, right now news feeds and reference library pages focused on how-to adapt tools for towns, cities, counties, and regions in the state. It will take a while to get its shape right, but I want it to be the first place you look if you have a question about climate change as it relates to Minnesota.
