It's #WorldElephantDay. 🐘 I am in love with #elephants. Their intelligence and emotion are wondrous. These #ecosystem engineers face extinction. 100 or more are killed per day by human impact. Conservation is crucial as is our moral imperative to protect. #Environment #wildlife

Old growth forests provide vital carbon absorption that mitigates #climatechange by regulating #ecosystems that protect our #biodiversity. It is a priority we keep them intact and restore resources we have already lost. 🌎 #environment #sustainability earthjustice.org/action/protect…

Big win! 🙌 Production of single-use plastics emits millions of metric tons of greenhouse gasses and creates deathtraps for marine life from ingestion, entanglement, and habitat loss. Reduction is critical. The #PlasticsTreaty is a step forward. #environment #fossilfuels🌊🌎🐟🦭

Our #oceans are vital carbon sinks that absorb excess heat and CO2 emissions. They support communities, diverse cultures, economies, and regulate #climate and oxygen. Bold moves now for a sustainable future. #SaveOurOceans #Environment #ClimateActionNow unep.org/topics/ocean-s…

It is imperative by 2030 countries cooperate in an effective mitigation plan on nitrogen #pollution impacts. Human activity and interference have more than doubled reactive #nitrogen in our #environment with disastrous consequences. #ClimateActionNow unep.org/interactives/b…

🙌 Thank you #NationalWildlifeFederation for this inclusive Tribal Advisory Council. #Indigenous wisdom is invaluable and proven for centuries. Respect for their profound history, sovereignty, and voice is the path forward. 🙏 #Environment #Conservation nwf.org/Home/Latest-Ne…

Tipping points are critical thresholds. Acute upheaval to #environmental systems from #pollution and #climate triggers drastic alterations with irreversible damage to life support systems. More than 20 are identified. We must prevent a domino collapse. 🌎 worldwildlife.org/stories/what-y…

It is not a debate to respect #Indigenous Treaty Rights. I am grateful #FirstNations elders call to end disastrous use of #glyphosate, “poison raining from the sky." They understand Mother Earth and "sharing her lands with all creation."💚🌎 #environment thesudburystar.com/news/local-new…

Soils are uniquely diverse habitats and complex ecosystems that support life. #Climate, conventional agriculture, #deforestation and industrialism have accelerated 50% loss of our vital soils. We must prioritize #sustainability efforts now. #environment consciousplanet.org/en/save-soil

We have known for decades our #ClimateCrisis was coming and how to reverse it. We squandered the luxury of time as global leaderships continued to favor hazardous and destructive industries for profit. Leadership matters more than ever. #VoteEarth 🌎 #environment #Election2024

Food insecurity in #Indigenous communities must be resolved. Ability to grow native foods has declined as health consequences rise. Change is needed to support #foodsovereignty and return of ancestral diets, wisdom, and full protection of sacred lands. blog.nwf.org/2024/08/food-s…

The Amazon #rainforest is critical. In 4 decades, 88 million hectares the size of France and Germany have been lost to #deforestation. Brazil, Ecuador, Colombia, & Peru are on fire as #ClimateCrisis worsens. We must stop #fossilfuels now. 🌎#environment france24.com/en/live-news/2…

The 7th breach of the 9 known planetary boundaries for livability. With all the human created problems in this world what can possibly be more important than the one place we can live? We must protect biosphere integrity immediately. 🌎 #environment #home theguardian.com/environment/20…

"We can feel our ancestors." I am thankful for the resolve and resilience of The Wet'suwet'en First Nation people. I applaud the fight to save their sacred ancestral lands and Canada's old growth forests from further destruction. #Indigenous #environment theguardian.com/world/2024/sep…

Honoring Indigenous Peoples today, and every day. I celebrate their profound connection to #nature, the soul of the #Earth, their incredible resilience, and resolve. Their knowledge is vital for a future rooted in balance, respect, and sustainability. 🌎 #IndigenousPeoplesDay

The new Living Planet Report is sobering. #Wildlife populations in more than 5000 species declined by a staggering 73% in 5 decades. Cumulative impact creates irreversible #tippingpoints. Bold prioritized #conservation measures are urgently needed now. livingplanet.panda.org/en-US/

We see more and more how rapidly our global #carbonsinks are weakening, collapsing, and accelerating the catastrophic impacts of our #ClimateCrisis. We cannot wait. We must strengthen our efforts, rethink #emissions, and proactively protect our planet.🌎 theguardian.com/environment/20…

BIG love to all who attended the symposium last weekend. It was incredible. We raised generous and much needed relief donation for #environment #wildlife #conservation #climate initiatives around the world. I am so deeply grateful. Thank you.💚🌎🙏 newswire.com/news/anna-kava…

The #GreatBarrierReef is a vital #ecosystem and habitat for #biodiversity. Worst fears have been realized this year in decline of #coral and destruction due to bleaching and #climatechange. We must do more to prevent further coral mortality. #environment abc.net.au/news/2024-11-1…

We are failing in collective and critical measures to protect our planet from ongoing #climatechange. We must transition away from #FossilFuels. To do this, countries must commit at #COP29 to end expansion and prioritize #RenewableEnergy #environment theguardian.com/environment/20…
