Needing some cheer in a gloomy week? Here's a special alpine plant picture!
Robbins Cinquefoil
The first plant to be listed on, and the first to be recovered under the endangered species act!

Just some pretty alpine plants to brighten your day. Be well and take care all.

The loss of megafauna over the last 50,000 years has caused ecological theories to be based on already-degraded ecosystems.

Long overdue analysis to show how global supply chains stretch around the world to have a major impact on biodiversity in distant countries - those outsourcing resource needs are responsible for much greater cumulative range loss to species outside their own borders than within
Global biodiversity loss from outsourced deforestation - Nature
An analysis of global deforestation linked to consumption of products in the supply chains of large economies finds greater losses for vertebrate species’ ranges outside these countries than in them.

Ive just started this book! Looking forward to reading over the weekend.
Happy to promote this book! "The Ecological Plot identifies the foundations of modern notions of ecology, economics, and realist fiction, maps how they evolved through the works of Victorian writers [...] and shows how they resurfaced in the works of Aldo Leopold and Rachel Carson a century later."
I’m so sick of people promoting their work on here. Imagine how annoying it’d be if I spent my time on this site promoting my book about the surprisingly literary origins of ecology, *The Ecological Plot: How Stories Gave Rise to a Science*? That would be pointless and unforgivable, obviously

A beautiful bird to break up the string of depressing posts
Landed in front of me
Really wanted his photo taken

AMC’s Dr. Sarah Nelson and Braedon Lineman joined 35,000+ attendees at the 2024 American Geophysical Union conference, the largest gathering of Earth and space scientists. AMC is proud to be a part of the scientific community and present our research on snow science and changing winters!

Can you spot the glowing eyes? 👀
This Canada lynx was captured on camera in the Maine Woods.
Protected boreal forests are vital for lynx and their prey, snowshoe hares. Conservation efforts like AMC's Maine Woods Initiative help keep their habitats thriving: www.outdoors.org/conservation...

two thoughts:

1. a lot of overwhelm and hopelessness is here and more is on the way. feel it when you feel it so you can keep fighting.

2. prioritize your safety while doing what you can. if it doesn't feel right, trust your gut, not someone else's feelings.
