En las grandes ciudades, los barrios más ricos suelen tener más árboles, más aves y, en definitiva, más espacios verdes. Este fenómeno, conocido como “efecto lujo", revela una desigualdad ambiental. https://efeverde.com/efecto-lujo-biodiversidad-ciudades/

Finally, 254 nests of three urban species were examined. I think this is a very interesting contribution to the topic of plastic pollution and urban wildlife.

Only two days until our next online seminar! This time with @gematsu.com from @mizer.bsky.social Ready to know more about Ants 🐜 in the city🌇?
