This brave little fox cub fought with all its might to defeat the vultures that were trying to eat its mother…..and here is what happened next.

It's time for a change. Vote for leaders like @AbdulElSayed and @JocelynBenson who will work every day to make this country better.

A mother black bear left her blind cub in a woman's truck at a mountain gas station….. and this is what happened

53 orangutans have now been rescued from forests devastated by fires in West Kalimantan, Indonesia, and the scale of destruction is horrifying. More than 48,500 hectares have burned this year. Orangutans are being found starving, injured and desperately searching for food in forests that have been destroyed. These are critically endangered animals losing the very habitat they depend on to survive. How much wildlife must suffer before protecting forests becomes a priority rather than an afterthought?

I STAYED 3 MONTHS INSIDE THE RAINFOREST OF MAMFE. WHAT I SAW MADE ME RESIGN. In 2012, I worked as a Project Evaluation Officer with a Geospatial Technology Group in Mamfe. My job was simple: Trek kilometers every single day inside the rainforest, identifying and marking different tree species that were ready for exploitation. I was there to MONITOR and EVALUATE if companies were truly implementing SUSTAINABLE forest exploitation. For 3 months, the forest was my office. No network. No good road. Just us, the GPS, and giant trees that have lived for 300 years. But what I saw broke me. What was written on paper as "sustainable exploitation" was MASS DESTRUCTION on the ground. There was NO selective cutting. They cut everything. Young trees, old trees, protected species. They left deep wounds in the forest and no tree to replace what they took. Bulldozers pulled down everything in their way. I realized we were not exploiting the forest, we were killing it. We were erasing the future of our children for quick timber money. A forest that took 500 years to grow can be destroyed in 5 days if we don't practice selective cutting. What is selective cutting? It means you only harvest mature trees, you leave the young ones to grow, you protect rare species, and you allow the forest to regenerate. You take one, you plant two. But what I saw was: Take everything and leave nothing. That is why I resigned. My conscience could not take it. I could not be part of a report that says "sustainable" when my eyes saw destruction. 12 years later, the effects are visible. Climate change, unpredictable rainfall,rivers drying up. If we must exploit, let us exploit with sense. Our forest is not our inheritance from our parents, it is a loan from our children. Have you ever been to our rainforests in Amazon,Congo Basin,Indonesia,Malaysia etc? What did you see? #SaveOurForest #Amazonrainforest #CameroonRainforest #SustainableForestry #ClimateAction

Thank goodness, Google search hasn’t gone totally to shit. I found the image and the story. Mama didn’t think so highly of you. Damn did she nail it. 💯

For Africa, climate change is not about the future. It's about now. Our crops failing, our lakes shrinking, our people displaced — while boardrooms thousands of miles away count record profits. We don't have a climate problem. We have a justice problem. #ClimateJustice

Elon Musk has cemented his record as the largest individual political donor in modern American history. Musk poured $446 million of his own money into this year’s midterm elections, mostly aimed at preserving the Republican Party’s control of Congress. wapo.st/4igb5Kq

The Nazi guards never heard the baby crying inside her toolbox. If they had, 2,500 children would have died. In 1942, a 32-year-old Polish social worker named Irena Sendler walked into the Warsaw Ghetto carrying a simple toolbox. She had a permit to check for typhus outbreaks. The guards waved her through. Hidden beneath the wrenches and rags was a six-month-old baby. She walked past armed soldiers and handed the child to a Polish family waiting outside the walls. The next morning she walked back in and did it again. For three years Irena smuggled approximately 2,500 Jewish children out of the Warsaw Ghetto. She hid infants in toolboxes, sedated children and smuggled them in coffins, concealed them in ambulances under stretchers, and used sewer pipes. Every child received a new Polish name. Irena recorded everything—real names, new names, locations—on tissue paper sealed in glass jars and buried in a friend’s garden. By October 1943 the Gestapo caught her. They tortured her, broke both her legs and both her feet, and beat her unconscious. She gave them nothing. After months they sentenced her to death. The night before her execution, the underground bribed a guard. He led her out and recorded her as “executed.” She went immediately back to work and continued until the war ended. When the war ended she dug up the jars and spent months trying to reunite children with families. Most parents had died in the camps. For decades almost no one knew about her. Then in 1999 four teenage girls in Kansas found a brief mention of a woman who had saved 2,500 children. They researched and wrote a play. At age 89 Irena Sendler became famous. She was honored by Pope John Paul II and nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. She died in 2008 at age 98. One estimate suggests those 2,500 rescued children produced approximately 6,000 descendants. She was a social worker with a permit and a toolbox. She walked into hell every day for three years and walked out carrying children. The Nazis broke her legs. They couldn’t break her will.

Clearing his name after he’s no longer here to see it. Rest in peace, Professor Jason Arday. You deserved your flowers while you were still, here. #writing #WritingCommmunity

Warm Heartedness Is the Key - His Holiness the Dalai Lama explains that with a warm heart, everything looks more positive, while a self-centered mind sees only negativity and fear. Our intelligence needs a warm heart; without one, it can become dangerous. Video originally recorded on November 11, 2019.
