Tropical forests generate rainfall worth billions.
Tropical forests help to generate vast amounts of rainfall each year, adding weight to arguments for protecting them as water and climate pressures increase, say researchers.

This was the Starling murmuration, on Sinker's Fields, at Whixall yesterday. It was one of the most spectacular natural spectacles I have ever seen and is a must watch.

Studies show: Trees are the true air conditioners. Under a tree, the temperature can be 15 C° cooler than measured in the ambient air. Shade and evaporation create the same effect as a conventional A/C, but without electricity. A tree produces about 20-30 KW/h, as much as ten A/C

Stop cutting them down
Forests don’t just store carbon. They keep people alive
Forests influence climate not only by storing carbon but by cooling the air
Tropical forests show the strongest cooling, often exceeding 6°C relative to cleared land.

A study from 2025 estimated that forest loss across the tropics has exposed hundreds of millions of people to higher temperatures and contributes to tens of thousands of heat-related deaths annually.

"‘Daunting but doable’: Europe urged to prepare for 3C of global heating"
I can scarcely believe what I am reading, that adapting to 3C of warming is "doable". Only someone who doesn't understand what 3C of warming actually means, could think it "doable".

Super urgent: The Kimberley, including the mighty Martuwarra/Fitzroy River is far too precious to despoil with fracking. Please take a moment to support this important campaign, here: www.environskimberley.org.au/epa_submissions_fracking

💔"Problem in Ireland is that we no longer have natural ecosystems. We have cleared away our natural forests, dug out peatlands, converted hills to conifer plantations, drained wetlands, compacted soil under weight of millions of farm animals and straightened rivers to create yet more grazing land"
After Midelton was flooded in 2023 Leo Varadkar said we needed a Land Use Plan. The Plan is ready but @micheal-martin.bsky.social won't publish it.
Instead, he's legally designating rivers as "highly modified"

Ireland in the storms: Flood barriers won't save us if we keep draining the land
After flooding in the past, successive governments promised protections, but instead, doubled down on dredging and delayed land-use reform, leaving communities exposed, writes Pádraic Fogarty.
