Thanks for the specificity and the precedent of your suggestions. Always excited to read these things and dream of them becoming real, and feeling like maybe a few yet ever increasing number of ecosocialist nerds can make this happen in our municipalities.

It’s totally achievable. I don’t think any of these things would meet with strong opposition. Just requires some initiative.

If you had asked them for permission to use the image then they would have told you they also took it without permission. I mean seriously are we preaching about food forests and sustainability but then having no ethics whatsoever about other people's creative output and serious hard work?

super frustrating to see you using my photographs of my garden at my house, without permission nor credit. Indeed, it seems you have cropped off my attribution! Not cool at all.

I haven’t cropped anything; I just google image searched “food forest.” If you’d like me not to use a photo, I’d be happy to change it out, but I don’t know which ones are yours.

you do understand you can't just take whatever you find on google and use it for your articles? You need to have permission or use images from stock websites. the image of the food forest that you use multiple times on your blog is mine. At my house. if you googled it then you found it on my websites or social media pages. It seems that most of your images are copyrighted by others. It's just not super ethical to do that. you need to ask permission before taking creative content to publish on your own site.

I still don’t know which images you’re talking about. I don’t know who you are and have never been to any of your sites.

all the more reason you shouldn't be posting my content on your blog without permission. I encourage you to find out who owns all of your images and get permission and give credit. If you didn't create it, then you need permission to use it. My garden is your cover image in two of your articles. the beautiful food forest with circular beds.

also taken without my permission. But you still did not credit the source! Please remove my content from your blog
