💸🫁 “Try holding your breath while you count your money.”

The economy depends on nature: healthy soil, clean water, pollinators, forests and biodiversity. Protecting the environment isn’t separate from economic wellbeing, it helps sustain it. 🌍🌱

Let’s build a future where people, nature and livelihoods can thrive together.

Doomsday doesn't have to mean the end of the world overnight.

Climate change can look like failed harvests, disappearing water sources, extreme heat, floods, stronger storms, and communities struggling to recover.

The climate crisis is already here. What we do today can shape how difficult tomorrow becomes.

Protecting soil, water, forests, and biodiversity isn't just about nature. It's about protecting our future.

Meet Colobus congoensis

We just discovered it

A brand new #monkey #species

Its range is small, and #JuniorAmboko, lead researcher in the discovery, describes them as shy and hiding in high trees in #LomamiNationalPark of the #DemocraticRepublicofCongo #DRC

"This discovery is both exciting and deeply personal, highlighting the extraordinary #biodiversity of my homeland and how much remains undocumented"

Happy Juneteenth!

We honor the legal abolition of the enslavement of peoples of African descent AND the ongoing struggle against its continuing white supremacist and patriarchal legacy.

The bird shown here is a Cattle Egret which symbolizes the African Diaspora, as fellow birder and author Christian Cooper points out. Originally found in Africa and parts of SE Asia and southern Europe, the Cattle Egret was driven by storm winds from Africa to the Americas in the late 19th century, around the time of the abolition. The versatile birds adapted to their new home and spread to warm-weather (and, increasingly, temperate) areas throughout this hemisphere.

Cattle Egrets are actually more closely related to the Herons (Ardea) than to the Egrets (Egretta). Unlike most of their relatives, Cattle Egrets favor open, grassy areas, rather than aquatic environments, and received their name from their frequent occurrence in pasture areas, where they forage on insects stirred up by the movement of cattle. The first bird was photographed in a pasture in the Valle de Viñales, Cuba, in March 2024. The second was taken with my old point-and-shoot when I was a fledgling birder in Antigua in April '21.

Good Morning!!!

You ask us:

‘Are these very small #bumblebees we’re seeing out foraging around now a specific species?’

A good question.
Thanks for asking it.

Here’s a brief thread to explain these diminutive beauties.

Likes are nice but reposts spread knowledge.
A small ask for the small bumblers.

…mate. Most will be unsuccessful in the mating game.
The queen will also produce the next generation of queens late in the summer.
Shortly after this the nest will come to a natural end. The queen dies. The male #bees die as indeed do the female workers. (Males and female…
