We're too easily swayed by instant gratification, compromising the planet's health. Our food supply depends on the ecosystems we are rapidly destroying. A heartfelt plea from Cllr Glyn Evans, on COP30 Biodiversity day.

Living alongside nature: humans must get better at it
The first of two articles inspired by COP30 explores some problems and the need to seek inclusive and nature-aligned solutions.

Ocean acidity has increased by ~30% over pre-Industrial levels due to the uptake of anthropogenic CO2. Pteropods, “sea butterflies,” are planktonic snails that are sensitive to these changes. Scientists have found that their shells are getting thinner & are dissolving, especially at high latitudes.
