Going to @thenaaee.bsky.social Virtual Conference? Sign up for Learning for Life: Co-Creating Educational Strategies for a Living Planet⁠ pre-conference workshop! ⁠Morpho will join leaders from WWF and TCI to explore how educators can bring the UN’s Global Biodiversity Framework to life! ⁠

One of the authors, Dr. Lindsey Swierk, is on our board! And this research was done during one of our field programs for teachers! 😍😍😍

What a life! And what an inspiration! Glad we shared the planet with you Jane. It is better because of you!

Explore the #AmazonRainforest by making one out of paper! Making our model give you insight into the plants & animals that live there, with info about where they live, what they eat & who eats them! Find out more here: buff.ly/dLNfqos #EduSky #geography #iteachbio #rainforest #scienceteacher

Deforestation is closely related to reduced rainfall in the Amazon rainforest. Observations from 35 years of Amazon research show how global climate change and local deforestation affect the rainforest ecosystem. 👉 tinyurl.com/4crexh5k #deforestation #climatechange #amazonrainforest

🚨🐈‍⬛❤️🐈🚨 I am thrilled to share our latest publication in Ecology and Evolution, where we show the first scientifically documented video of a melanistic jaguar mating in the wild! Here is what we found 👇🧵 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/ec…#Jaguarsr#bigcata#naturalhistoryr#ecologyg#rainforestst

We love this! And it’s spot on accurate too!

This week, educators are building deep ties to the Amazon rainforest and its people—creating the foundation for authentic, student-centered conservation education back home. #EducatorAcademyAmazon #EfC #TeachTheAmazon

Global problems need local solutions—and inspired educators. 🌏 The Educator Academy creates a ripple effect that supports biodiversity, sustainability, and cultural understanding across continents. #ThinkGlobalTeachLocal #AmazonToClassroom #GlobalBiodiversityFramework

By living it. Through place-based inquiry in the Amazon, we empower participants to embed real-world conservation stories into their curricula. 🦜🌱 #BiodiversityEducation #EfC #EducatorAcademyAmazon

The Educator Academy in the Amazon bridges the gap between biodiversity education and conservation action. Through fieldwork and professional development, teachers become agents of change aligned with the goals of the Global Biodiversity Framework. #EducationTransforms #GBFGoals #ForPeopleAndPlanet

They're all entry points for place-based inquiry that leads to conservation learning. The Educator Academy in the Amazon gives educators the lens to connect it all. 🐸💧👥 #SystemsThinking #EducationForConservation #STEMforGood

In the Amazon, every sound, leaf, and muddy trail becomes a question waiting to be explored. This week participants in our annual Educator Academy in the Amazon learn to spark place-based inquiry that inspires conservation action. 🌱🔍 #EducationForConservation #PlaceBasedLearning #RainforestInquiry

The Global Biodiversity Framework (GBF) calls for transformative education to halt & reverse biodiversity loss. Today we are bringing this to life - immersing educators in the Amazon & equipping them to take action in their classrooms & communities. #GBF #NaturePositive #BiodiversityEducation

For the next 20 days, we are highlighting the impact of our educator programs in the #amazonrainforest. Through daily questions you’ll see how curiosity in the rainforest leads to deeper understanding, stronger global connections, & lasting change. Follow along!

Happy International Day of the Tropics - biodiversity hotspots on the frontlines of climate change, ecosystem & cultural loss.Morpho empowers educators to explore the #amazonrainforest living classroom, connecting students to global systems through inquiry, conservation, &Indigenous knowledge.

Can citizen science bridge classrooms & the global biodiversity framework (GBF)? Through iNaturalist.org , Morpho educators contribute real biodiversity data from the #amazonrainforest =GBF Target 21: Enhance biodiversity knowledge-sharing. Visit our iNat projects www.inaturalist.org/projects/nap...

we are headed to the #amazonrainforest with 40+ teachers and researchers next week and are ready to get our iNat on! This is a great #tedtalk from the director of @inaturalist.bsky.social www.ted.com/talks/scott_...

@alisonborealis.bsky.social 👋

[COMMENTARY] Tools like drones & GPS apps allow local & indigenous communities to track deforestation & respond to territorial threats quickly. But these tools must be introduced with local realities and cultural wisdom in mind. ** The views expressed are author's, not necessarily Mongabay's.

Happy Mothers Day from the Amazon! This very determined 2-toed sloth momma was caught using Explorama Lodges’ canopy walkway as a shortcut to her next stop in the treetops. (Video credit to German Arévalo)

Meet the aptly named red-tailed boa. This beauty was spotted by our director during a recent visit to the Peruvian Amazon. (Fun fact: this is THE Boa Constrictor. Its official scientific name is Boa c. constrictor and it’s found throughout South America - preferring forest and river edges)

The Greene School in Rhode Island has a 74-acre campus that includes forest, wetlands, and beaver habitats. 🌲 🦫 When new students arrive, they all take a course that helps them explore it—and consider their role in caring for the environment. #EnvironmentalEducation #ecology #EduSky #ITeachScience
