Freshwaters of the Amazon are experiencing unprecedented impacts, but decades of research and practice have produced a rich foundation for advancing management solutions. We identified 63 actions that combined could change the game. In Conservation Science and Practice conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.11…

We’re basically cooked. One of the UKs leading climate scientists, Prof Kevin Anderson says the maths used by the IPCC and Net Zero don’t add up, and the future we are heading towards within our kids lives, is incompatible with human civilisation at the scale it’s at now

It’s astounding to me how quickly the 6th Mass Extinction is happening & seemingly few people care or understand what it means for us humans & Life on Earth Sometimes I feel like my career as an endangered species biologist was nothing more than being a modern day Cassandra

BREAKING: scientists say there's every reason to think the sudden collapse of carbon sinks which was never factored into climate models will further accelerate rapid global heating with cataclysmic consequences for Earth's species 🧵

This should not be a story on an obscure part of the BBC Science Focus site, it should be top of every news bulletin in the world. Please read. Please understand. Please revolt in your office if you have to to force appropriate coverage of this. It speaks for itself. @bbcnews

An extreme Category 4 marine heatwave has developed in the Tropical Atlantic. A maximum Alert Level 5 for coral bleaching has been issued for the eastern Caribbean and Lesser Antilles, indicating a risk of near-complete mortality for coral in the region. Major heat stress for

The global fishing industry receives $35 billion in subsidies yearly. The fishing industry also “accidentally” kills at least 38 million tonnes of wildlife as #bycatch annually. This is government-funded ocean destruction. Read more: blueplanetsociety.org/bycatch-crisis… 📸 Iakov Kalinin

⛈️📈 You know what else isn't increasing linearly? The amount of Precipitable Water in the atmosphere! Especially over the regions where air pollution is being reduced. Just like the models predicted! This is a lot of additional water per square meter!

🧵-je, en hij is bruut Frankrijk loopt opnieuw onder water - nu in het zuidelijke deel. Dit was de aankondiging van gisteren: 👇

Huge win. Ecuadorians have voted in a historic referendum to halt the development of all new oilwells in the Yasuní national park in the Amazon, one of the most biodiverse regions on the planet: buff.ly/3QNZzdo Protect people and the planet. #ActOnClimate

Remember the outrage at Just Stop Oil throwing soup over a protective covering of a painting in a desperate attempt to draw attention to climate breakdown? This is The National Library of Spain, flooded again. All the world’s art, galleries, artefacts, museums, treasures etc

Hmm. Maybe ‘The system that moves water around the Earth is off balance for the first time in human history’ isn’t good… cnn.com/2024/10/16/cli…

#Faroes Pilot whales are exceptionally slow to reproduce, & suckling their calf for years forms immensely strong bonds. They are long-lived, females at least 60 years. But the Faroese don't care, they've slaughtered a pod again, & will throw most of it into the sea as trash.

Researchers counted 5……down from 33 in 2012-2013. 😢😱 The extinction pipeline is packed. There’s a tiny primate that looks like Yoda and it’s heading for extinction - BBC Wildlife Magazine apple.news/AmUxFz2NvQIqmA…

It's mad to think almost this entire landscape was once *incredibly* species-rich native rainforest. And that it would revert unassisted, but for those 4-legged strimmers. But maddest of all is that for farmers, no sheep = no subsidies. YOUR taxes are pushing ecological ruin.

No one cares about the migratory birds, bats, harbor seals, dung beetles, moths, and some species of frogs that navigate by the night sky. 😟 Astronomers worried by launch of 5 new super-bright satellites-New Scientist apple.news/ApNdbOlBqQYm9x…

De Provence is opnieuw geraakt door zwaar onweer met uitzonderlijke hoeveelheden neerslag. Ook de rijken worden niet gespaard. Tussen de 130 en 166 mm, onder meer in Fréjus en Rocquebrune sur Argens. 👇

Yet another disadvantage to releasing 50 million large, non-native birds every year. Their role in spreading Lyme disease. If you have this debilitating disease, or succumb to it in future, non-native gamebirds may be to blame. All to allow a few folk a bit of fun on shoot days.

May 2024: “I think we are headed for major societal disruption within the next five years,” said Gretta Pecl, at the University of Tasmania. “[Authorities] will be overwhelmed by extreme event after extreme event, food production will be disrupted” 🧵 dumptheguardian.com/environment/ar…
