101 million visitors. Over 1 million campers. 28 years of wolves in Yellowstone.
Not a single negative encounter.

The real danger isn’t the wolf.
It’s the myth.

Grateful to see my call for water cycle restoration featured in @EURACTIV by Bárbara Machado.
“We must turn our built environments into places that absorb, store, and release rainwater slowly.”
This is how we prevent disaster.

The Cretan wildcat, once thought extinct, is alive and roaming Crete’s mountains. 📸 Camera traps confirm it’s holding on — but threats like hybridisation and habitat loss remain. A rare win for wild nature.

🐺 Breaking: A 20-year study shows Yellowstone wolves boosted willows 1,500%🌿

Yet, Europe is weakening wolf protections, ignoring science. Wolves cause <0.065% of EU sheep losses.

🚨 Act now! If 17 EU countries object by March 6 the downgrade won’t take effect.

This is not just a story about beavers. It’s about why nature works best when all its key players are present.

🦫 Beavers create wetlands, prevent floods, and store water

🐺 Wolves regulate prey populations, keeping forests and grasslands balanced

🐻 Bears disperse seeds, shaping entire ecosystems
Beavers in Czech Republic saved €1.19M, transforming degraded land into a vibrant wetland. Restoration work planned in 2018 was delayed, allowing beavers to step in and do it 4 free. Let’s work together to explain how coexistence benefits both nature and society!

🦊❄️ Five Arctic Foxes Released in Norway!

Once nearly extinct, Arctic foxes in Scandinavia are rebounding—from 40 to 550 since 2006! This year, Finland saw its first fox litters since 1996.

Conservation works! We can restore balance. 🌍

167 wolf reintroductions: the key to restoring the Scottish Highlands! After 300 years, these apex predators can curb red deer, unlock 1M tons of CO₂ capture/year, and boost local economies. Let’s embrace coexistence for nature and communities.

Last chance to save the wolves! 🐺

On March 6, Europe may downgrade wolf protection. This threatens nature, and that means you.

A giant oak in Penteli was cut down days after a fire. We used to hug it with our kids, now there’s only a hole. Oaks are resilient to fire; they often regrow from hidden buds. This one was a vital genetic reservoir, sharing nutrients through a mycorrhizal network to help surrounding plants thrive.

Incredible! Wolves in Greece have been documented swimming long distances to reach remote islands, a behavior previously seen only in coastal Canadian wolves. A wolf near Trikeri swam 5 mph to hunt sheep. Who will study these new skills wolves develop & their potential in rewilding Earth?

After 100 years, 18 condors are back in Northern California, reclaiming their place in the region’s ecosystem and cultural narrative, thanks to the Yurok Tribe's dedication, including breeding programs, habitat preparation, and community education. #NatureRestoration #EarthRegeneration

🐺 BREAKING: Wolves are back in the Peloponnese after nearly a century!

For the first time since the 1930s, a wolf pack has been documented in Taygetos—9 individuals strong. A historic milestone for Greece’s biodiversity and a powerful sign of nature’s resilience!

HOPEFUL NEWS: The Taklamakan Desert just got encircled by a 3,000 km tree belt!

🌱 China’s Three-North Shelterbelt has planted 30M hectares of trees, raising forest cover to 25% (10% in 1949) curbing desertification across 26.8% of its land.

YES, we can restore nature even in the toughest places!

While Mrs. Ursula von der Leyen continues her pursuit to kill away the wolves in the EU, in Greece, the Special Units for Disaster Response responded to a call by NGO Kallisto and rescued a wolf that had fallen inside a 13m well. The future lies in co-existence. The rest will be left to the past.

Proud of the #Madagascar civil society at #COP29 that defended #PrimaryForests from 2 new roads! In the #PressConference, 59 NGOs detailed the threats to ecosystems, water, agriculture, hydro energy, tourism. #IMF is providing a $321 million #ClimateResilience loan, expected to fund these roads.
