This doesn't include WWF's atrocities in this country and elsewhere in the name of conservation.
'The acts were committed between 2019 and 2021 under the knowledge and paramilitary support of U.S and German government agencies and the Wildlife Conservation Society (WCS)...'
"20 Indigenous Batwa were killed, 15 women were raped and 2 children were burnt alive by park guards and soldiers in the DRC’s Kahuzi-Biega National Park (KBNP), home to the critically endangered eastern lowland gorilla."

Thanks for providing the platform for @KwesiRandolph and I to write this, @ShackletonTrust.
The futuristic language used in describing the impact of #climatechange doesn’t apply to communities in West Africa, for them, the future is now.

Harmful fisheries subsidies undermine benefits that sustainably managed wild fisheries provide, argues a new #LetterToScience: "World Trade Organization members have a...opportunity [in November]...to reach an agreement that eliminates [these] subsidies." fcld.ly/p35mq2q

Existing social and racial inequalities in the USA put marginalised communities at greater risk of suffering in the face of climate impacts, and those inequalities will be exacerbated as the #ClimateCrisis deepens.
A focus on #ClimateJustice is needed.

I am a fat, Black scientist, & this is my story as a Black graduate student in Environmental Science. I know I am not alone in this, & I am working actively to change the narrative about how MY body is perceived & welcomed into these spaces. I BELONG! 🌻

I absolutely love that we are all talking in unison! We have spent too much time looking for allies across the pond, when in reality, we must be our own allies. Not everyone feels comfy with this but those of us who do must keep pushing!. @ShackletonTrust @smangubhai

Excellent article @mohammadarju.
International orgs & researchers wield huge amounts of power and influence over the marine conservation space,due to their 'credentials' and proximity to the money. This power is often consciously and unconsciously wielded
