#Science and #conservation work with dry facts and data. But when it comes to saving #nature and the #climate, we also have to appeal to #emotions. Many people respond to #beauty.
A new study about #coralReefs tries to find out if their beauty can be measured: https://theconversation.com/the-beauty-of-coral-reefs-is-key-to-their-survival-so-we-came-up-with-a-way-to-measure-it-261013 via @TheConversationUK

@NatureMC Lots of small steps that are well within the grasp of most people to do at least some of them. #ClimateAction #BiodiversityLoss #Pollinators #Environment

“We’re at a new point in human history,” Wagner says. Up until the last decade, “the major drivers of biodiversity losses around the planet were really land degradation and land loss, habitat loss. But I think now that climate change is by far exceeding that.”

"Combatting science denialism depends on community-level collaborations, not individuals. In particular, experts need to be supported by academic and research institutions, policymakers, and journalists." - New paper: science denial, insect apocalypse and biodiversity loss, by @manusaunders on the Ecology is Not a Dirty Word blog.

On this #BiodiversityDay, sharing a link to the recently released @ipbes #TransformativeChangeAssessment.

It was an honour to be lead author of chapter 3.

Values, dominant practices & structures need to be radically transformed in order to reverse biodiversity loss & reset people/ nature relations.

Throughout my childhood, I hated #StGeorge for having killed that cute #dragon. It was one of my first contacts with #biodiversityLoss and patriarchal #anthropocentrism. With this #embroidery, I took revenge. Long live the #dragons! Our world needs more cute #green beings. #textileArt #fiberArts

On #EarthDay, one of my #BiodiversityShrine objects, a Cucujus cinnaberinus #beetle. Read more about the #sciArt project and why I celebrate this beetle: www.cronenburg.net/biodiversity/ (more photos). #reconnectWithNature #biodiversity #biodiversityLoss #art #paperArt #mixedmedia #rareSpecies

Q: How can we fight Deforestation around the world?
A: Provide an income to landowners for leaving their land as forest, paying them to keep it forest. How can that be done and paid for / funded?

I cycled out to Clondalkin and back this morning for a site meeting and had to clean the dead midges off my glasses when I got back. There may be hope for us yet.

History made: takes lead in effort to stop deep-sea mining

While countries like Spain and France have adopted parliamentary resolutions in opposition to deep-sea mining, #Portugal is - so far - the only European country to have translated these concerns into a binding law to adopt a deep-sea mining moratorium.

FRESH ARTICLE OUT

Our new work on the role of #ClimateChange and #BiodiversityLoss in online discussions about the European #EnergyCrisis from 2021 to 2023 with @annahaus, myself, @tuuli and Gonzalo Cortés-Capano.

Our results have several implications for #SciComm and #PolicyMaking related to #sustainability #climate and #biodiversity.

The article is here: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11625-025-01639-1

In case you missed it, and/or were feeling cheerful, this is both important and depressing.
