Is a statue in a state of decay
The message from the past
Is that things never last
No matter how mighty today

Everyone knows where the Lynxs came from.
The dogs on the street know.
There is one man with a long record of advocating this type of behavior and with a colony of Lynx.

This is an ace exposé of anti-environmental campaigning tactics by the brilliant Director, @kat-jones.bsky.social. Spot them coming and unmask their methods!
As well as the findings from @theferret.scot APRS Director, @kat-jones.bsky.social, has been taking a closer look at environmental campaigning in the age of misinformation and the tactics used to try and bring down progressive policy. 2/2

I'm looking for someone to mentor a young woman who is taking her first steps in a STEM career. Her main focus is on the interface of ecology and land management.
If you are, or know a female professional who could give up a few hours a month to mentor either remotely or in person, please DM me.
