This is the Japanese Puffer Fish - one of #nature's greatest artists. To grab a female’s attention he creates something that defies belief. Nature is more amazing than we will ever know. Protect it in all its forms. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #rewilding #biodiversity

Happy #WorldAquaticAnimalDay! 🐟 🐙 🦀 On top of welfare issues, farming carnivores is wasteful. A sustainable food system should transition aquaculture to low-trophic species (seaweed, bivalves, etc). Read Compassion in World Farming UK's report on rethinking EU aquaculture ⤵️bit.ly/3ztzkPw

Dejaremos morir los árboles que nos dan sombra en la dura y hormigonada ciudad para que unos pijos chapoteen mientras toman un mojito. Se agostarán las cosechas pero alguien hará un hoyo en uno. Perderemos, en fin, lo que nos sustenta, pero nos darán vidrios y papeles de colores.

Thanks to politicians like @FGuerreiroMEP, we can aim to do things better for animals and the environment. Octopus farming has no place in a truly sustainable aquaculture industry that takes into account the welfare of the animals involved. #StopOctopusFarming Compassion in World Farming UK

“We should stop all abuses, but if there is a chance to begin somewhere we should take it, rather than waiting for perfection.” I spoke to philosopher Martha Nussbaum & others for this ⁦⁦The New Statesman⁩ piece on plans to intensively farm octopus: newstatesman.com/environment/fo…

35,000 evacuated in British Columbia 30,000 more on evacuation alert 20,000 in Yellowknife evacuated 26,000 evacuated in Spain. Historic heat, historic floods, historic wildfires. How many more signs do we need before we #ActOnClimate? #climate #wildfires
