People do this, for real.
There’s also people that spread seeds of various plants.
Alas, not all of them do their research. You gotta do native plants, in the right zones for them, if you want it to be something positive.
I said that to someone I used to know that would go around throwing pot seeds anywhere he was going. He said that pot is always a positive. He’s an idiot, obviously, which is part of why he’s someone I used to know.
He said that pot is always a positive.
Ecosystem wise, he is uninformed.
Societally, he may have a point. Back in the day people could lose their property due to wild pot growing. Was this a real issue, or something we thought pre-internet? I don’t know. But it is hard to take property when pot grows everywhere.
The amount of invasive mustard plants I find in my neighborhood is so frustrating.
Man pets could have eaten those and gotten sick 😳
Are you saying that pot can be an invasive species?
Any living thing can be an invasive species.
Not if it grew in the wild there for millions of years
And where is pot native?
Apparently central Asia. I was mistaken, I thought it had been growing in the wild on much of the earth. Probably got that from a stoner friend 20 years ago lol
No worries :)
I even saw the same thing in a high times back in the nineties, that it was everywhere except Europe, iirc.
Only non native things can be invasive. That said, pot isn’t native to the us I think.
I helped out at an extremely rural farm in Nebraska and cutting out wild pot plants was a somewhat regular duty.
That was most likely hemp. I got fooled in Nebraska by some growing wild along a highway. My friend and I smoked a bunch and just got a headache. That’s when we remembered that hemp cultivation was pretty common in the US prior to the 1900s
Unless I’m mistaken, the proper word for this is guerilla gardening (Wikipedia). Although that movement does mostly flowers and crops.
I’ve heard of problem doing that with trees. Careful though. Landscapers pick shallow root trees because they wont damage buried city infrastructure like data, power, water and sewer lines.
That sounds like “anti tree fascists”.
I’m up for illegal Final Fantasy playing

“Aunt Tifa” was right there
That mic drop was more of a “plink”, but not a bad idea

Hi there! Looks like you linked to a Lemmy community using a URL instead of its name, which doesn’t work well for people on different instances. Try fixing it like this: !antreefa@lemmy.ml
Yes, rebuilding (ie allowing them to recover) ecosystems by force!
Stop land repurposing, let things go derelict, plant trees, fungi, flowers, etc to get things started.
Maybe let a tree accidentally fall on a hunter killing apex predators, land developers, oil people, etc. Or can we just bioengineer a swamp thing? What could go wrong?
Seedbombs are a thing already

Hear me out - a movement where we illegally plant trees everywhere and refuse to stop.
You might wanna sit down for this. Get ready. Are you ready?
Antreefa.
Antreefarm Is eben better
We should sit down and try to design a 3D printable seedbomb projectile injector that doesn’t look enough like a gun to get us shot by the heehaws.
