Due to increased greenhouse gas emissions, extended periods of extreme warming in seas and oceans have increased in frequency by 50% in the past 10 years and are becoming more severe.
These Marine Heat Waves (MHWs) threaten marine #biodiversity and ecosystems, make extreme weather more likely, and negatively impact the fisheries, aquaculture and tourism industries.
By investing in Nature-based Solutions and ambitiously reducing #FossilFuel-based emissions, we can limit the impacts of the #ClimateCrisis.

Elephants are intelligent, emotional creatures that play a crucial role in their ecosystems by germinating plants and more.
Unfortunately, they are threatened by poaching and affected by habitat loss along with human-wildlife conflict.
On this #WorldElephantDay and every day, remember to protect these majestic animals.

🌿 What is wetland conservation?
Wetland conservation is defined as the maintenance of wetlands’ ecological character, achieved through the implementation of ecosystem approaches, within the context of sustainable development.
This definition emphasises that wetland conservation is not just about protection, but also about sustainable management hat ensures wetland biodiversity, ecological processes, and functions are maintained while meeting the needs of current and future human populations.

Just like the early days of solar, opponents to incentives try to portray EVs as for rich people only. The reality is that it is people who are sensitive to energy bills who most want to take them up. smh.com.au/national/nsw/it-s…

This life size seal is made entirely of marine debris from salmon farms! And this industry wants to expand even more! Right into Storm Bay where soon the #sydneytohobart yachts will race through. We need the #toxic salmon industry to stop ruining our marine environment.

Early diversifications of angiosperms and their insect pollinators: Were they unlinked?

I love the Wiradjuri phrase 'yindyamarra winhanganha.'
It means 'the wisdom of respectfully knowing how to live well in a world worth living in.'
I think that's what our planetary home needs right now.
