Bison, wolves, and beavers 🦫

What do these critters have in common?

They’re keystone species that could help rewild the West.

Even better: let’s also remove cattle from public lands.

Today on March 21st it's the International Day of Forests 🌳. But don't forget: peatlands store twice as much carbon as all the biomass of the world’s forests. That makes them prone to burning when drained.

Despite harboring nearly a quarter of all species on Earth, soils and the diverse life within them are almost always overlooked in conservation policies.

A #SciencePolicyForum argues that they require explicit consideration and protections. https://scim.ag/3ZlKKRK #WorldSoilDay

Good news for once!

We’ve found a 300-year-old coral that’s so big it’s visible from space. It’s now considered the world’s largest. Best of all: it’s not yet harmed by climate change & global warming.

It’s being called a beacon of hope. Let it also be a call to action! #DoSomething 🧵

2023 was one of the worst years for wildfires in the EU in over two decades.

🔴 500,000 hectares of natural lands affected,
🔴 The largest single fire in the EU since tracking began,
🔴 ‘Megafires’ are on the rise and fire season prolonged.
