  1. theguardian.com/environment/20; climateoutreach.org/btc/2025/r. There is a very clear distinction between #climate #mitigation, on the one hand, & climate #adaptation, on the other. The former entails reducing the #extraction & #burning of #fossilfuels, #deforestation, #destruction of #wetlands & #animal #agriculture. The latter entails adapting to the #effects of #Climatechange, rather than doing anything to prevent further climate change. If people haven't understood THAT, they've understood NOTHING!

  6. World-first trial finds floating wetlands can cut greenhouse gas emissions
    By Jack Colantuono, Zaida Glibanovic, and Mim Hook

    A floating garden of native plants in Victoria's east cuts a wastewater lagoon's emissions by about 30 per cent, with researchers now testing the approach on farm dams.

  16. [Science News] Located in the tropics, #Indonesia is one of the world’s wettest regions. But the massive construction of #irrigation canals, the draining of #peatlands and oil palm #plantations have gradually dried up the wetlands. The drying out of these landscapes, combined with the return of El Niño, is leading to an increase in peat fires that release massive clouds of toxic smoke... sciencedaily.com/releases/2026

  25. This tree has fallen, but it's still doing a lot for the ecosystem. Slowly decaying, providing food and shelter to thousands of species. Forests should be left unmanaged wherever possible.

    Edmunds Marsh, Washington State, is a 22.5-acre (9-hectare) urban wetland. While I was there taking pictures, I ran into a reclamation crew removing invasive Wizards Nightshade (Circaea lutetiana). We had a long talk about the stream ecosystem there. Apparently, if it isn't cleared out, the area turns into a bog. He pointed to huge hedges of the plant smothering other plants further in, but in an area where he wasn't allowed to go.

    India Safari Holiday Tours: A Complete Guide to India’s Wild Side

    India's wildlife is not the wide-open savannah of Africa, and that is exactly what makes it so fascinating. Here, a safari can take you through sal forests, dry grasslands, bamboo thickets and wetlands where a tiger may appear without warning. For travellers planning an India safari holiday, the experience is about far more than spotting a Bengal tiger. It can include leopards, sloth bears, wild dogs, crocodiles, hundreds of bird species and the landscapes and communities that surround […]

  29. ”When our rewilding program started, many big corporations offered us huge amounts of money if we certified carbon credits. We consulted with communities. But our answer was that we don’t sell nature.”
