This administration specializes in fearmongering, not facts.

The facts: 86% of trans youth report s*cidal ideation and 56% have attempted to end their lives. Anti trans laws increase attempts by ~72%. <1% report regretting GAC.

If they are trying to protect children, science says they are wrong.

🆘🚨 AYUDA URGENTE PARA LOLA 🚨🆘

La pequeña Lola vive encerrada en una jaula en Guinea Ecuatorial. Necesita atención médica y un entorno seguro con otros chimpancés.

Debemos trasladarla a Tchimpounga, pero los gastos de viaje son muy altos.

🙏 Por favor, ayúdanos a rescatarla: janegoodall.es/donar/

🌏 Biodiversity loss has deep-rooted causes—from power imbalances to short-term priorities. These shape indirect & direct drivers like land/sea use change, exploitation & climate change.

Corals are disappearing, pushing Earth to its first major ‘tipping point’

A new report says Earth has reached a dire milestone with the widespread death of warm-water coral reefs. But it's not too late to save what remains.

A paper in Nature suggests a quarter of heatwave events from 2000-23 would have been near impossible without anthropogenic climate change. The paper also indicates that major carbon emitters are responsible for around 50% of the increase in intensity of these events. ⚒️ 🧪
Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors - Nature
Climate change made 213 historical heatwaves reported over 2000–2023 more likely and more intense, to which each of the 180 carbon majors (fossil fuel and cement producers) substantially contributed.

🐺🌱 El futuro del lobo ibérico también depende de la educación ambiental

Hoy en Madrid, los más pequeños aprenden que proteger al lobo es cuidar la naturaleza y el mundo rural

💚 Educar es conservar.

Colossal Biosciences has announced that they have "de-extincted" the dire wolf. This is not a dire wolf. It's a grey wolf with dire wolf-like characteristics, a "hybrid" (~19K genes, 20 changes in 14 genes) time.com/7274542/colo... 1/2 @smcnz.bsky.social
The Return of the Dire Wolf
Colossal Biosciences has genetically engineered the first dire wolf to live in over 10,000 years. Here's what that means for other extinct species.
