"As scientists, we know we simply cannot ignore the link between human health and well-being and the health and survival of wild species, ecosystems and our planet. No amount of economic growth is going to insulate us from the continued deterioration of critical life support systems. "

In the calls to defend Canada, we’re getting a one-dimensional perspective: increased resource extraction & exploitation.

But what if your #cdnpoli includes its wilderness, which sustains us & the good life we enjoy here? Thanks @wcscanada.bsky.social for this piece:

Next week in the EU-Parliament (11.11.2025, 13:30-15), we will discuss the future of sustainable farming in Europe and the alignment or non-alignment of the CAP with sustainability criteria, based on @agtransect.bsky.social and #CAP4GI.

I cannot believe our work is finally out there and in @journal-evo.bsky.social ! This was an enormous group effort!

We provide an updated estimate of the number of buzz pollinated angiosperm species, genera, and families, look at consequences for diversification, number of transitions, and more!

The new European Butterfly Red List is published today, with worrying findings. Over 1/4 (28%) of Europe’s 442 species are threatened with extinction or are close to being so. The situation is far worse for our 148 endemic species, 40% are now threatened or nearly so www.bc-europe.eu/webpage.php?...

"L’état de conservation des abeilles sauvages, des papillons et autres pollinisateurs européens est désastreux, a réagi Jessika Roswall, la commissaire européenne à l’environnement".

Sans doute l'article le plus important du WE.
Quand va-t-on vraiment réagir ?

King penguins are pretty impressive divers, logging descents of over 300m in the summer, but now researchers @iphc-strasbourg.bsky.social have discovered that the penguins dive even deeper in winter, remaining submerged for up to 10mins & descending up to 424m

Our climate is changing, and biodiversity is declining. In this context, accurate pesticide risk assessments to insect pollinators and crop auxiliaries -pivots of food security in a changing world- is crucial.
