  3. I only heard about this from a talking head, pointing out #Ivanka's ability to go on a podcast to sane-wash their gross #billionaire scheme, to destroy fragile #ecosystems for cash.
    Protests bc pristine island beach has barbed wire, building a 10,000 UNIT HOTEL - no, they won't impact the flamigos, seals or turtle nests.
    These #CoastalWetlands only had their #ProtectedStatus changed in 2024 - no connection to #Kushner's power or Ivanka.

  4. From 2023: #OneidaNation's #environmental restoration project to receive funding in proposed [#Wisconsin] state budget

    #Wildrice, or manoomin in #Ojibwe, is central to Ojibwe identity and is part of the culture’s migration story.

    ONEIDA – "Part of Gov. #TonyEvers’ proposed budget includes $875,000 to help fund the Oneida Nation’s environmental restoration project on the reservation.

    "Over the past year, the tribe has restored about 3,000 acres of #wetlands, #grasslands, #prairies and #forests on the reservation.

    "The governor’s budget includes an annual investment of $175,000 for five years for continuing the Oneida Nation’s #HabitatRestoration work and bird monitoring project just west of #GreenBay.

    "'We know that #nature can provide for itself if allowed to. A years-long restoration of Oneida’s lands in Northeastern Wisconsin has led to improvements in water quality and the return of #wildlife,' said Oneida Chairman Tehassi Hill in a statement. 'We appreciate Governor Evers for supporting our work to restore and protect Wisconsin’s natural spaces.'

    "The Oneida Nation also started a bird monitoring project on its restoration sites in coordination with the Northeastern Wisconsin #Audubon Society and UW-Green Bay’s Cofrin Center for Biodiversity to research how birds are responding to the tribe’s conservation efforts.

    "'We’ve witnessed firsthand as state-threatened bird species, like the #HenslowsSparrow, have returned to restored Oneida Nation lands, an incredible testament to the importance of this restoration work,' said Erin Giese, president of the Northeastern Wisconsin Audubon Society, in a statement.

    [...]

    "Evers’ budget proposal also includes a $200,000 investment in restoring and protecting natural wild rice areas in Wisconsin.

    "Experts say wild rice is an essential food source for many of the #MigratorBirds in the area, including many species of #ducks, #pheasants, #owls, #cranes, #geese and #songbirds.

    "The plants also help to improve the #environment.

    "'Emergent plants, including wild rice, help promote #water quality through the filtering and storage of nutrients and slow down wave action in the #CoastalWetlands of Green Bay,' said Dr. Amy Carrozzino-Lyon, University of Wisconsin-Green Bay restoration project manager in the natural and applied sciences department. 'A diversity of native wetland plants helps the community function at its best.'"

  5. The #AmericanClimateCorps would employ about 20,000 young adults. It prioritises workforce #diversity.

    The initiative will provide #JobTraining and service opportunities to work on a wide range of projects that tackle the #ClimateCrisis, e.g. restoring #CoastalWetlands; deploying #CleanEnergy projects such as wind and solar power; managing forests to prevent catastrophic #wildfires; and implementing #EnergyEfficient solutions to cut energy bills for consumers."

  6. #JosiahAustin and #ValerAustin built 20,000 loose rock dams and water detention structures in the #desert wasteland of the El Coronado Ranch in the Chiricahua Mountains of SE #Arizona. These structures slow floods by 50%, and increased water retention by 28%, leading rapidly to vegetative growth, wildlife and as much #CarbonSequestration as #CoastalWetlands. Recognized by US govt agencies and science studies.
