Rewilding animals is one of our best options to partner with nature to combat climate change
Ecosystem restoration generates tangible benefits for food and water security, climate change mitigation and adaptation, and can prevent conflict and migration triggered by environmental degradation.

Wonderfully wet and wild.

Make up all the bug hotels and bird boxes you want, but without way more healthy wild natural habitats like this, nature will continue to crash.

Rewilding is how we make that happen.

“Ja maar de VVD moet er wel bij”
Het is al heel erg dat Wouter de Winter ELKE DAG bij #Eva zit, maar gaat hij nou ook nog elke dag hetzelfde zeggen?
Wouter de Winter bij Eva is kritisch over dit plan. (snap ik, want het haalt de blokkeer-macht bij de VVD weg)
Dat bevestigt volgens mij dat het een goed idee is. 😊

Zweverig of zeldzaam is het niet, awe, wel intens of zelfs ontroerend. Wie dit gevoel van overrompeling door de natuur kent, is eerder geneigd haar te beschermen. ‘We moeten dus als de sodeju die verbondenheid herstellen.’ buff.ly/8VK3Nvo

America's political elite has decided that climate change is no longer that important or worth talking about, but rest assured, it's still happening, it's extremely bad, and yes, it is going to affect you here in America.

Bij Pauw en De Wit wordt met man en macht gepleit voor een ultrarechts kabinet met JA21, want die arme PVV’ers en FvD’ers moeten natuurlijk ook een plek krijgen.
De enige die nog pleit voor een coalitie mét GroenLinks-PvdA en zónder JA21 is nota bene een VVD’er.
Wat een doffe, troosteloze ellende.

Het valt me op dat er bij verhalen over lachgas-als-drug nooit gesproken wordt over lachgas (N2O) als broeikasgas: 273 x zo sterk klimaateffect als CO2.

Als je leest om wat voor hoeveelheden het gaat, moet het een substantieel deel van de NL N2O uitstoot zijn.

The last 3 years have been the hottest in around 125,000 years.

CO2 levels are their highest in MILLIONS of years.

But most people have no idea this is happening, let alone what it means for our kids’ futures.

Our politics & media have failed our children. We should be furious.

Here's a look at the extent of the "warmth" across the #Arctic in October. This map uses my normal anomaly scaling for each month, but it clearly doesn't work for something this extreme.

Claims of felling 250 year-old trees + shipping them thousands of miles to burn in a power station, releasing fine particulate pollution linked to breathing + heart conditions.

Perhaps, instead of subsidising this, our tax money could go to treating people with those conditions?

Why is this something anyone even considered doing?
Environmental groups have won a landmark case against a project to drill for offshore gas in Italy's Po Delta, a UNESCO-designated biosphere reserve.
