Image of a whale breaching, with the text: It's Time To Re-whale The Ocean

Image of a Blainvilles beaked whale by Christopher Swann with the text: Half of the world’s oxygen comes from the Ocean, whales help keep the ocean healthy and thriving.

Image of a close up view of a plankton with the text: Through their waste, whales nourish microscopic plants called phytoplankton, and during their long journeys, they help distribute crucial nutrients across the planet.

Image of a tail, just before it disappears under the sea with the text: Whales continue to nourish marine life even after they die. Their carcasses support roughly 200 species and transport carbon to the deep sea. As their bodies sink, they deliver large amounts of carbon to the ocean floor, where it can remain stored for hundreds or even thousands of years.

This #WorldConservationDay, let’s #ReWhaleTheOcean
Whales are climate & biodiversity allies — but pollution, industrial whaling & ocean exploitation are pushing them to the edge. When 🐋 thrive, the ocean thrives. Help restore the ocean here: https://uk.whales.org/support/

This #WorldConservationDay, I’m proud to advocate for clean air, safe water, and the power of tree planting. Trees clean our air, store carbon, protect water sources, reduce flooding, and support biodiversity. Planting trees is a powerful step in protecting our planet. 🌳🌍 #ActOnClimate

Finding economic value in nature beyond carbon - Zero Carbon Analytics Calculating the value of nature is complex. A collapse of essential ecosystem services could cost USD 2.7 trillion per year by 2030.

On #WorldConservationDay, we highlight nature’s crucial services 🐝 Pollination, water purification, & flood regulation provide trillions in economic value annually, yet these benefits are often overlooked in decision-making. Why valuing nature is key ⤵️

Somewhere in the African savannah, a small baby elephant nuzzles up against an adult elephant, presumably a parent. The grass below their feet is yellow and dry, while the view beyond is screened by tall green trees.

Somewhere in the African savannah, a small baby white rhino looks up at an adult rhino, presumably a parent. Oxpeckers gather on the back of the adult rhino, going about their business. Beyond, grasslands stretch out toward the horizon, dotted with sparse clusters of trees and shrubs. The sky above is murky and overcast.

Mark Carney 'can no longer justify including fossil fuel projects among his infrastructure goals. This includes liquefied natural gas plants, the Northern Gateway oil pipeline to the Pacific coast, and carbon sequestration projects'

#Canada #CDNPoli #ClimateCrisis #NoPipelines #WorldConservationDay

Opinion: The International Court of Justice’s statement on fossil fuels puts Carney in a tough spot An advisory opinion on responsibility for emissions means that Canada could be on the hook for major climate-change-related damages in the years ahead

'Pay now, or pay more later. That’s the message sent by the International Court of Justice to fossil fuel-producing countries' like #Canada:

To truly share this planet requires a shift in how we think, act, and connect across species.

This #WorldConservationDay, we're reflecting on this responsibility, which is at the core of our mission, and reinforced by the perspective Christiana brings as the newest member of our board.

It's absolutely beautiful up here.

We're proud to do our little bit to help keep it this way.

Here are 8 simple actions you can take today to help protect our planet:
🌳 Plant a tree to restore ecosystems
♻️ Reduce, reuse, and recycle mindfully
🚗 Carpool or use public transit
💡 Turn off lights when not in use
🧹 Volunteer for a community cleanup
#WorldConservationDay #ActForNature

On #WorldConservationDay, I joined local leaders at New Haven's Schooner Summer Camp to celebrate our environment & our fight to protect it.

While Republicans work to dismantle climate protections, we stand firm for clean air, clean water, & future generations. 🌿🌊

Less genetic diversity makes it harder for populations to recover from disease outbreaks. Efforts to restore connectivity between wildlife habitat patches are crucial for the conservation of this species.

Dumbiedikes James Robertson “Jock, when ye hae naething else to do, ye may be aye sticking in a tree; it will be growing, Jock, when ye’re sleeping." —The Laird of Dumbiedikes, on his death-bed, to his son (The Heart of Midlothian, by Sir Walter Scott) Hoo mony trees tae prent a thoosan buiks? Hoo mony buiks tae pulp a thoosan trees? Hoo mony trees tae launch a thoosan boats? Hoo mony boats tae sink a thoosan trees? Hoo mony trees tae licht a thoosan fires? Hoo mony fires tae smoor a thoosan trees? Hoo mony trees tae mak a thoosan kists? Hoo mony kists tae yird a thoosan trees? Jock, when I’m awa, dae this for me – howk oot a hole and in it stick a tree. I carena gin it’s birk, beech, aik or rowan, Sae be’t when ye’re sleepin, Jock, it’s growin. Its canopy will spreid, its seeds will faw; it micht be hame tae mavis, merle or craw; speeders will hing their brigs on it, I doot, and peerie-weerie beasties venture oot upon the mappa mundi o its bark, while kail-worms mak a denner o its sark. Amang its ruits the glunchin taid will rest, the frettin, fykie yird-moose bigg her nest, and dentylions and puddock-stools upheeze… In sair times, Jock, we’re sair in need o trees. Stick in a tree, stick in a thoosan mair, and mind o me when I’m nae langer there. Hoo mony daiths afore the planet dees? Tae gie the planet braith, hoo mony trees?

“Jock, when ye hae naething else to do, ye may be aye sticking in a tree; it will be growing, Jock, when ye’re sleeping.”
