Did you know? Half of the world’s mangroves have been lost in the past 50 years. 🌳 Healthy #mangroves are essential for the wellbeing of #marine and terrestrial species as well as the lives and livelihoods of coastal #communities.

#ClimateJustice now! It’s time to #BanPrivateJets Add your voice 👉🏼greenpeace.org/banprivatejet… While 80% of people have never taken a plane, the super rich are flying their private jets whenever they feel like it, sometimes for less than 10 minutes. 🙄 🙄

Congress is taking up legislation that would erase protections for the Arctic Refuge & NPR-A, transforming these landscapes into polluted oilfields. Tell your legislators that you oppose rolling back protections for wildlife & habitat in the Arctic! dfnd.us/3twKS5d

We wish we could knit every manatee a sweater (a big sweater)! Many manatees have learned to rely on outflows from power plants & other structures to provide warm-water habitat. Whether natural or man-made, manatees depend on warm waters to spend the coldest days of winter.

Soil is where our food begins. Improving soil fertility is critical for biodiversity as it provides essential nutrients to sustain plant growth. #GenerationRestoration

North America is home to nearly 3 billion fewer birds today compared to 1970. It's essential we do everything we can to protect the birds that bring us joy—that work can even begin right at home. Pledge to make your home and community more #BirdFriendly: bit.ly/3tJUxW2

“Whenever I come across a grove of old-growth redwoods — these majestic, cathedral-like trees that are centuries old — it’s just a no-brainer that they should be protected." Read about Isabel Upani here: sempervirens.org/protect/red…

Still picking my through Meine's biography of Leopold, and I wonder: Who's our contemporary Aldo? A groundbreaking researcher who willingly wades into advocacy, writes exquisite prose, and is influencing the trajectory of land & wildlife mgmt? Can one even be such a person today?

When people lose their high-frequency hearing range, they often give up the joy of many birdsongs. Now Lang Elliott has launched a free iPhone app, along with a headset you can purchase, that can help users “hear birds again” in real-time. audubon.org/magazine/winter-…

The air we breathe, the water we drink, the food on our tables, the medicines that heal us, the livelihoods we depend on — all are provided by Earth's ecosystems in which humanity’s survival depends on them. To safeguard our future, we must unite in action #ForNature.
