The Great Salt Lake is shrinking at an alarming rate, with serious consequences for the environment and local communities. The decline is driven by climate change and increased water consumption, highlighting the urgent need to address greenhouse gas emissions and implement sustainable water management practices. Preserving this vital ecosystem is crucial for maintaining biodiversity, supporting local economies, and mitigating climate impacts. #climate #climateaction #netzero #impact

🌍 On this Earth Day, let's shift our focus to an often-overlooked hero in the fight against climate change: peatlands 🌿 Did you know these landscapes cover 3% of the Earth's surface and have the potential to store twice as much carbon as all the world’s forests combined? Yet, they face exploitation and lack of awareness. Our recent session at the Market Research Society (MRS) Annual Conference delved into the importance of peatlands and how to communicate their significance effectively! Discover the insights from the conference and how we're reshaping the narrative on peatlands and contributing to climate action in an article by Research Live here: https://hubs.ly/Q02tzFt50 #Sustainability #ClimateAction #Peatlands #NatureRestoration #EarthDay

Forests face new challenges 🌳 Recent research by the Cary Institute highlights a worrying trend: Western US forests are losing more carbon than they store due to climate change and wildfires. The findings, spanning from 2005 to 2019, illuminate how fire suppression and climate shifts impact carbon storage. This poses a major issue for climate mitigation strategies that heavily rely on forest carbon sequestration. To reverse this trend, scientists recommend adaptive forest management strategies, such as thinning and prescribed burning. These approaches could restore carbon-storing capabilities, especially in vulnerable regions. Positive results in the Pacific Northwest hint at the effectiveness of targeted conservation efforts. Should we focus more on adaptive forest management to combat climate change? Share your thoughts! #ClimateChange #ForestManagement #Sustainability

The Importance of Preserving Wetlands for Carbon Storage Wetlands are often overlooked in discussions about carbon storage, yet they play a critical role in sequestering carbon and mitigating climate change. These unique ecosystems, which include marshes, swamps, bogs, and floodplains, are among the most efficient natural carbon sinks on the planet. This blog delves into the significance of wetlands in carbon storage, explores how they contribute to climate regulation, and highlights the pressing need for their conservation. https://lnkd.in/gCUbcSkK

The forgotten solution to climate change - https://scft.link/cspW5 Dr. José Rubio, Deputy President of WASWAC, and his team emphasize the critical role of soil in climate regulation in their study published in Soil Security. They argue that sustainable soil management is essential to combating climate change and preventing soil degradation. #ClimateChange #SoilHealth #SustainableAgriculture #SoilSecurity #EnvironmentalScience #sciencefeatured #sciencenews

Looking for some inspirational weekend reading? A new paper informed by scientific research and best practices from around the world outlines five principles to guide the global implementation of natural climate solutions. Our friends at The Nature Conservancy summarized the key findings beautifully in this quick read, and explored the question: Why aren’t we harnessing the power of nature to its fullest climate potential? Quick answer – we are!! https://lnkd.in/dJmZQKcM #climatesolutions
