Be a good neighbour to nature! 🐸🦋🦔

Mini-wetlands come in all shapes and sizes, but they all make a BIG difference to local wildlife.

Here's how to make your own 👉 ow.ly/imZo50Pv4pL #MiniWetlands #WetlandsCan

Coastal habitats—like salt marshes, seagrasses, and mangroves—can store 5-10 times more carbon than forests on land.

Learn how it works in this new The Nature Conservancy video.

This time last year I was studying #hummingbirds in #Anguilla 🇦🇮

Missing studying and researching them more and more, and hopefully one day find a #PhD placement that can facilitate more hummingbird research!

If anyone has any tips on finding one, please do share!

#GlobalWarming and the expansion of the built environment 🏙️ are expected to intensify the urban heat island (UHI) effect.

Increasing 🌳 tree coverage to 30% in 🇪🇺cities could prevent nearly 2% of summer deaths 👉 europa.eu/!DdRNtq
