This neon yellow and green ski sweater is a perfect example of what happens when we start knitting without checking the dye batch on the label of the yarn. It was supposed to be a sedate Fair Isle design in forest green and gold. What we ended up with was this monstrosity. Too be fair, it does stay dark at the North Pole for months at a time. When the sun finally peeks over the horizon, everything looks neon for a while.

The rising temperatures also mean that mountain glaciers are melting at unprecedented rates, affecting freshwater supplies downstream for millions of people. Mountain communities, however, have a wealth of knowledge and strategies accumulated over generations, on how to adapt to climate variability.

Really, it was something of a revolution, and a reclamation. Brown shoes are woefully underrepresented, but one should take a look at the places that they do exist. Brown shoes? Brown shoes are on the feet of the most intrepid adventurers, with heavy brown leather shoes with durable soles guiding them into the wilderness to see where it takes them. Brown shoes? They were the absolute mark of a man who was both respectable, well-off, and yet relaxed enough to not need the high-polished shine of black patent leather to prove themselves.
