#Animals unable to #smell, #see, or #hear their food will sooner or later #starve.
However, researchers have now discovered using #Tyto #alba that #owls #retain their most important sense, #hearing, well into #oldage. According to the authors, owls are capable of #regenerating lost hair cells in the inner ear.

The authors Z. Zhang et al. (2026) found that, unlike about 10 years ago, #mangrove forests are #currently #regenerating globally, which allows the researchers to make slightly positive predictions for #coastal #ecosystems in light of #globalwarming.

I recently listened to an interesting podcast with Ariane König about #regenerating society!

❔What is a #regenerative system? It can recover itself - even inadverse times - and is resilient.

🤑 The #problem is the goal of economic profits/ increase.
👫 We need to get more active #locally.
🕸️ Local initiatives should be: Place-based, perennialised, #networked.
