Preserving our expansive beautiful land is what makes our state great. It’s a fine balance of development and ecological control and preservation that will enable true prosperity for all.

We ♥️ celebrating community successes! The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), part of the U.S. Department of the Interior (DOI), plays a vital role in conserving, protecting, and enhancing fish, wildlife, plants, and their habitats domestically and internationally for the continuing benefit of the American people. In collaboration with other organizations, USFWS has deepened its commitment to embedding evidence and learning in its funding decisions. This approach goes beyond their conservation mission, emphasizing, "We are both conservationists and public servants, and integrating learning and evidence into our programs will help us be better at both."

We're coming together to investigate crucial wildlife refuges across the State. After initial success, the Greenspots project is now being extended to Mutawintji National Park, first co-managed national park in NSW, where we'll work alongside the Mutawintji Board of Management, University of Sydney, NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service and the Remote Sensing and Landscape Science Team to conduct this important work. 📷: Alex Pike/DCCEEW, Shaina Russell/DCCEEW, Lucy Gilchrist Learn more about the greenspots project: https://lnkd.in/gp3pbc_Z

Such great landscape scale, when established, vitally needed NFM, ecosystems engineers, nature based solutions, flood, drought, climate breakdown mitigation - soil and stored carbon protection. Now enable, afford, create, a 'National Freshwater Forest' - Wales Far better enable Beavers to deliver their natural, public services on a landscape scale, within the SFS with blended public, private financing - accountable biodiversity and carbon offsetting - and redistributive wealth taxes. Invest in freshwater quality, and far better climate breakdown deluge, by intercepting and appropriately lining, where ever freshwater flows with native trees. They can have multiple purposes, for farms, foods and product diversification, that will in a big part enable far stronger, climate resilient community economies. Site appropriate, short rotation coppice trees, as mulch, as a livestock feed and browse supplement, as biomass feed stock, biochar, freshwater management, as rapid carbon drawdown - need to be, strongly in this freshwater forest mix. Wales, be that exemplar of how inclusive communities & indigenous culture, can far better thrive in very precarious time, with very targeted additional tree cover, that compliments, and supports the growth of a newly developing Beaver population 💚 Never forget your working marginal, problematic land - this is not trees or food, or offsetting, it's multipurpose. #agroforestry #freshwater #agriculture #food #climateaction #wellbeingeconomy Abi Reader Dr Eurgain Powell Petranka Malcheva Rhiannon-Jane Raftery FRSA ,MIPM Ian Titherington David Ashford Pete Frost Llywodraeth Cymru Economi | Welsh Government Economy Lee Waters MS - do this now and you'll save The Office of the Future Generations Commissioner for Wales Future Generations so much, relatively fast, by tackling drought and flood naturally now.

I used to think that leadership was rarified air. Like so many others, I’d accepted that some people just didn’t have that leadership potential. And I’d accepted I was one of those people that didn’t have the gene. But staying cynical is a choice, and it’s often an easy out. It lets us off the hook for taking responsibility, exerting the emotional labour, and doing the hard work of making a change. I’ve since come to realize that everyone has leadership potential—we’ve all got the gene. It’s part of being human, which means we can figure it all out together. You don’t have to use that potential if you don’t want to, because it is hard work. But now I know that’s a choice too. The scary part isn’t whether or not you have the potential to be a leader. The scary part is realizing you’re already a leader—and that you’ve got to choose action and risk failure. The good news is that’s part of being human too. But don’t take it from me, take it from Ms. Goodall…

Breaking: McCormick Place Just Got a Whole Lot Safer for Birds! At Feather Friendly, protecting birds isn’t just what we do—it’s who we are. It’s in our DNA. When McCormick Place needed a scientifically tested solution after last year’s mass collision, they trusted us to deliver. And we did. The result? Nearly 120,000 sq ft of glass at McCormick Place — that’s about two football fields—has been treated with Feather Friendly Large-scale Pro markers by our authorized dealer/applicator NGS—in time for the ongoing fall migration.  This massive initiative would not have been possible without a call for change from the brilliant minds at the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS), the Field Museum, and local advocacy groups such as Chicago Bird Collision Monitors.  According to a news report from Fox 32 Chicago that you can see here https://lnkd.in/g-QKZxEm, a massive reduction in collisions is already being seen, and we are excited to see the results of comprehensive monitoring! McCormick Place is now setting the standard in environmental stewardship—who’s next in joining this movement to make our cities safer for birds? #birdconservation #featherfriendly #birdsafe #wildlifeconservation #nature #urbanspaces #mccormickplace MPEA
