I’m sure everyone has heard about the great Lake Baikal, and if you haven’t,boy, are you missing out.

This ancient lake, which is about 25 million years old, and thought to be the oldest in the world, contains 20% of the world’s unfrozen fresh water. That’s right, it contains just 1% less fresh water than all the Great Lakes combined,while it’s surface area is over 7 times smaller.

Why is that, you ask? It’s because Lake Baikal is the deepest lake in the world: It’s maximum depth is 1642 meters, which is deep enough for the Eiffel Tower to stand on itself 5 times and not reach the surface.

But it gets better: the Lake Baikal is among the clearest lakes of the world, so you can see the bottom to a depth of nearly 40 meters, and you can drink right from it, no purifying needed. Furthermore, Lake Baikal sustains 2630 different species of animals and plants, 80% of which are unique to it, and can’t be found anywhere else.

Oh, and by the way? Under both the lake and it’s underwater sediment some of Earth’s tallest mountains(plural!) are submerged, their height over 7000 meters.

Lake Baikal is perhaps one of the world’s most amazing, awe-inspiring, and unique locations, and I would seriously recommend everybody who has some free time on their hands to discover more on their own.

P.S. Have I mentioned that when it freezes (fully, whoa!) it’s ice looks like this? And you can listen to some beautiful sounds you can make with it here!

Lake Baikal has seals, even though it’s more than a thousand miles from any ocean. No one’s really sure how they got there.

have we fucked this up yet? we’re going to fuck this up

Green - the chlorophyll of angry plants!

Black - the dark of ages past!

Green - a spring about to bloom!

Black - the night that ends at last!

I dreamed a dream in time gone by
When sun was high
And life worth living
I dreamed that love would never die
I dreamed that Crowley would be forgiving
Then I was sprouting and unafraid
And dreams were made and used and wasted

and the cactus is in love with a with an orchid plant and won’t shut the fuck up about her

May I cut in?

Do you hear the flora sing?

Singing the song of angry stalks,

It is the music of a pistil who will not be trashed again!

When the beating of the drums echoes the flowing of the sap,

It is the start of a seedling when tomorrow comes!
