We’ve all heard of colonialism, but have you thought about it through a #climate lens? 🤔 Swipe to learn about modern-day examples of climate #colonialism happening right now. ➡️ And remember: an anti-colonial mindset is vital to fighting climate change.

An area the size of FOUR #NYC's were deforested in the #BrazilianAmazon in the first half of 2022 alone. That's more than 1.5k sq miles and is 80% larger than what was #deforested during the same period in 2018. The consequences of deforestation only worsen by the day.

Indigenous Peoples and Local Communities know the solutions for plants, animals, and humans to live in harmony. By working with these communities and precisely implementing their solutions, rainforests can be restored, significantly reducing CO2 emissions. 📸: Isadora Brant

Is “going purpose” the new “going public”? @Patagonia announced that its brand and assets will transfer to a unique trust and nonprofit. This is an example of a company that actually cares for Earth's people and resources. Kudos to #Patagonia: bit.ly/3Lg3Y3V

The African rainforest is being saved by elephants?🐘 As forest #elephants seemingly destroy trees in their path, they disperse vital nutrients that enable the forests to store more #CO2 in trees. A 2019 study found that each elephant's carbon capture = emissions of 2,047 cars.

What has changed since last years’ #COP26 conference? Sadly, the answer is not much. That’s why it’s important to cut out the greenwashing and false promises. It’s time to be radical—to show that actions speak louder than words. Check us out at #COP27: healthinharmony.org/hih-at-cop27

If tropical deforestation were a country, it would be third in CO2 #emissions, only behind China and the U.S. Annual gross CO2 emissions from tree cover loss in tropical countries averaged 4.8 gigatonnes PER YEAR between 2015-2017. 🌴🪚 It's past time to save the rainforest.
