We illustrate this with the Putumayo Trinational Corridor (Colombia, Ecuador & Peru). There, structured decision-making helped align shared goals and coordinate transboundary actions to conserve biodiversity while strengthening local communities.

Imagine an Amazon where nations work together, rivers still fly moisture to the Andes, jaguars roam safely, and Indigenous voices guide decisions. 🌿✨ Our new @pnas.org piece explores how this future can be real. 🔗 doi.org/10.1073/pnas... 🧵👇 ¡Arículo en español en el material suplementario!

Congestion charging in London caused an average of 7% drop in car ownership in affected areas (outer London near the charging boundary). If we want fewer cars in our streets, and all the benefits that brings, this is one of the tools that we know works. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

"Air pollution from oil and gas causes more than 90,000 premature deaths and sickens hundreds of thousands of people across the US each year, a new study shows..." If MAHA were anything other than dipshit reactionary fantasies & conspiracy theories, it would focus overwhelmingly on air pollution.
