#Regram #RG @lionrecovery: Lions today face threats such as human wildlife conflict, habitat loss, and lack of wild prey. Their numbers have declined dramatically over the past 25 years—now is the time to reverse the trend.

#Regram #RG @nrdc_org: We Oppose Kavanaugh for Supreme Court Justice. The next Supreme Court justice will likely cast the deciding vote in key environmental and public health rulings—ultimately shaping the health of our planet and children for generations. Brett Kavanaugh is not right for the job. In his 12 years as a federal judge, he consistently put industry interests over people. He has expressed extreme views that would make it harder for citizens to sue polluters and for agencies to make and enforce rules that address emerging threats. We don’t oppose nominees lightly—but there’s too much on the line. We need a justice to enforce the laws that protect us from environmental ruin. Kavanaugh’s biases are already clear. He is not that justice. Take action via the link in our profile. #WhatsAtStake #StopKavanaugh

#Regram #RG @unfoundation: “Planet or Plastic? On the northern remote beaches of northern Kenya near the Somali border these young men have chosen planet. Saidi Hussein, 30 (left) is the founder, Jilan Yussuf, 22 (centre) and Bashir Ali, 24 (right) are members of the Mwangaza Youth Group, a youth community initiative focusing on turtle conservation. They take weekly shifts on the remote Rubu Island near the Somali border, a known site for turtles nesting, to patrol beaches, collect plastic and trash, and protect turtle nests.”. It is estimated that by 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in the ocean. Actions to reduce plastic waste help protect life below water and build greater resilience to climate change impacts. Additionally, most chemicals that make plastics are derived from fossil fuels. By reducing use of single-use plastics, everyone can do their part to support healthier, cleaner oceans..

#Regram #RG @greenpeace: 100,000—that’s how many orangutans have died in the past 16 years because their homes are being torn down to make way for palm oil plantations. We must protect their habitats. : Bjorn Vaugn....#palmoil #orangutan #orangutans #indonesia #forestfires #forest #rainforest #biodiversity #nature #wildlife #greenpeace #photooftheday

#Regram #RG @lionrecovery: Lions are becoming rarer. A century ago there were 200,000 lions roaming earth and today that number has dwindled to an estimated 20,000.

#Regram #RG: @nrdc_org: Donald Trump says he loves clean air and water, but he hates all the rules that guarantee them—rules like the Clean Power Plan, which he’s currently trying to replace. His administration’s proposed Dirty Power Scam wouldn’t just slow our progress on climate change—it could reverse it. The proposal says almost nothing about cleaner, renewable energy technologies. It would increase climate-changing carbon emissions, worsen air pollution, and harm public health. Trump’s EPA is putting polluters and their fossil fuel profits ahead of climate—and our health, safety, prosperity, and future are at risk. Visit the link in our profile to take action!

We need local innovation to address plastic pollution. Watch this video about a full-cycle approach to clean the streets of Kyebando, Uganda that provides economic incentives for filling plastic bottles with trash and using these "recycled bricks" to build functional structures such as latrines and houses.

#Regram #RG @mission_blue: Currently, the one of the most serious threats to the endangered North Atlantic right whale is death or injury from entanglement in fishing gear. Happily, this particular whale was successfully disentangled by a team of trained state and federal biologists!

#Regram #RG @tompkins_conservation: Pumalín National Park, one of Chile’s newest national parks, encompasses 994,000 acres and protects Valdivian temperate rainforests. These wet, ancient forests extend all the way to the sea, something that is increasingly rare worldwide. The story of this park started in 1991 when Doug Tompkins purchased 42,000 acres of vulnerable forest-filled land that was at risk of logging. Today, it not only protects these forests for perpetuity but honors Doug’s legacy with his namesake: Pumalín National Park – Douglas R. Tompkins.????????? —————————————————————— El Parque Nacional Pumalín, uno de los parques nacionales más recientes de Chile, abarca 994,000 acres y protege las selvas templadas Valdivianas. Estos antiguos bosques húmedos se extienden hasta el mar, creando un paisaje cada vez más difícil de ver en estos tiempos. La historia de este parque comienza en 1991 cuando Douglas Tompkins decide comprar 42 acres de tierra llena de bosques que corrían el riesgo de la tala. Hoy en día, no sólo protege estos bosques a perpetuidad, sino que también honra el legado de Doug con su nombre: el Parque Nacional de Pumalín - Douglas R. Tompkins. #nationalparks #conservation #wildlife
