BC has axed its Climate Action Secretariat, sending at least 10 people to work on pipelines @zoeyunker.bsky.social reports for @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/News/2026/03... #climate #pipelines

[OUT NOW] FE6.9 - On Fire: Out of the Green, Into the Black So you want to put good fire on the ground, but how?? We're finally moving from theory to practice, as we learn what it really means to be on the prescribed fire line.

New episode coming very soon. We're returning to our favourite subject for the 6th time — but this time it's not just theory, it's practice 🔥

My guest interview with @lauralgovers.bsky.social just dropped on @futureecologies.bsky.social today. It’s part of the Hyphaedelity series in which FE invites past interviewees to speak with someone whose work inspires.

In our latest edition of Hyphaedelity, @ehiggs.bsky.social sits down with @lauralgovers.bsky.social all about bringing eel grass back to the Netherlands' Wadden Sea (and what "environmental restoration" even means in times like these). player.captivate.fm/episode/1d0e...

NEW EPISODE: FE6.8 - For Peat's Sake We explore the wonders and the mysteries of peatlands through the story of one very special (and threatened) bog just outside of Vancouver. Meet the scientists who fought for its protection, and the folks who are studying it and restoring it to this day

Is there anything better than a walk in a bog? We think not. FE6.8 "For Peat's Sake" arrives this Tuesday (catch it right now on our patreon)

👀 An experiment in community podcasting took place last week. A group of environmental shows ALL released eps about masting (get it?). There's even a playlist where you can listen en masse!

What do you call it when a population of podcasts drop episodes on the same topic at the same time? It's Critical Mast! Presenting a nutty experiment in community podcasting, with roots going back to the beginning of our FE (and our dedication to silly puns) player.captivate.fm/episode/de69...

Don't miss this absolutely fascinating edition of Hyphaedelity!! Huge thanks to Sadie and Hannah for making it happen.

What does it means to have a relationship to land? To be or not be of a place? In other words, to belong or not? player.captivate.fm/episode/0ad2...

Have you already heard of the Miyawaki Method? y/n in the comments. no cheating plz.

Well, there's a lot of obviously terrible stuff happening...
