"Every European railway network faces the same challenge: cutting wildlife collisions without permanently locking animals out of their natural corridors. Blue Sentinel was built to solve this."
That's great. It's important to protect and respect wildlife.
Also, in general, I'm super glad that rail travel is making a comeback. It's better than ever, too.
Unlike every single commercial airplane that pollutes the environment the moment it takes off, eco-friendly trains that run on solar panels or batteries or non-polluting fuels or simply electricity from sustainable sources
are constantly introduced on railways all over the world.Most importantly, trains they don't rob travellers of the simple pleasure of looking out the window and taking in the sights. Travelling should be a pleasant and memorable experience, and trains have consistently delivered just that for the past hundred years. 🚉 🚈 🛤 🚞 🚆

Your daily reminder that data centres are using huge amounts of potable water and electricity to cool off and power sloppy AI
All they give back is lots and lots of heat, adding to the already alarmingly high temperatures.

Centuries of war, pollution, unhinged capitalism, and a complete disregard for the natural environment, yet suddenly, everyone's shocked about the heatwave that's gripped the UK and Europe.
OK 👍

#Maine - The #SchoodicToSchoodic Initiative
"Together we can save one of the last places along the #EasternSeaboard where #wildlife can roam to and from rocky #shores and inland #woods seeking food and refuge.
"Seventy-five percent of Maine’s native plants and animals are vulnerable to the impacts of #ClimateChange. As temperatures warm, these threatened species will have to move significant distances to survive, but too often #development makes this impossible.
"Over the past several decades we’ve been working in partnership with #FrenchmanBayConservancy, #TheNatureConservancy, the #StateOfMaine, and other partners to conserve key 'stepping stones' of land between #DonnellPond Unit (state-conserved land surrounding #SchoodicMountain and #TunkLake) and the #SchoodicDistrict of #AcadiaNationalPark (on the #SchoodicPeninsula) to create a protected corridor for #wildlife. Through over 60 conservation projects, #MCHT and partners have conserved more than 55,000 acres from 'Schoodic to Schoodic.' MCHT has played a role in three-quarters of those projects.
"Still, the corridor is not sufficiently protected and critical lands are under threat of development."

The #CowichanRiver #estuary is one of the largest & most important in #BritishColumbia. The #watershed drains 90,000 hectares & provides #CriticalHabitat to dozens of #fish species, including #steelhead, #Chinook, #chum, #coho & #PinkSalmon, as well as brown, #cutthroat & #RainbowTrout. But the #Cowichan’s troubles are by no means unique; they are a #CaseStudy for a much larger problem.
#TimberCompanies store #LogBooms all along the #BCcoast, says Jamieson Atkinson, a fish #biologist & program manager for the #Aquatic #Research & #Restoration Centre at #BritishColumbiaConservationFoundation. “It’s shocking.” While #estuaries make up less than 3% of British Columbia’s coast, they provide rich #habitat for 80% of the province’s coastal #wildlife. The #FraserRiver estuary, near #Vancouver on the mainland, supports more than 300 species of #birds & 80 species of fish & #shellfish for at least part of their life cycles.
