Postdoc alert! 📣 Come work with an amazing team of researchers to assess the economic and social benefits provided by natural lands in the US through one of these two new postdocs at SNAPP! Are you quantitative? Or more qualitative? We're looking for both! More info: www.linkedin.com/posts/becky-...

Happy #BiodiversityDay! 🌎 Biodiversity supports seed dispersal, which shapes the composition and structure of many ecosystems. The myriad benefits to people provided by those ecosystems would not be possible without these unsung heroes. Read more in our paper just out in @natrevbiodiv.nature.com !

The USGS Ecosystems Mission Area is set to be completely eliminated in less than two weeks. I’m attending this“Virtual Rally to Save the Cornerstone of Conservation Science” this Thursday - sign up now to join me! www.mobilize.us/nwf/event/79...

Calling all US citizens who understand that #conservation is a global issue! 🌎 There are so many issues that need your voice right now but make sure you're heard on this before it's too late: tell Congress we need to keep funding international conservation! protect.worldwildlife.org/page/82646/a...

Celebrate 🌍 Earth Day 🌎 with @worldwildlife.org! What better way to mark the occasion than by recognizing the diverse ways the Earth nourishes us, and the solutions that will keep both us and the planet healthy? Join us on April 22: wwfus.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Join WWF for the another installment of Solutions for the Planet’s Interlinked Challenges. This Weds, March 26, 10 am ET, we'll examine the interlinkages through the lens of climate, finding solutions that also work for biodiversity, water, food & health. Register here: wwfus.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

EPA staff wrote an open letter to the American Public about the risks to communities of reneging on the IRA: www.ehn.org/epa-environm... It urges us to share this story and educate ourselves about EPA's environmental justice programs edgi-govdata-archiving.github.io/EJ-Grants/

LOVE THIS! No money to manage federal lands? Return them to their original caretakers! time.com/7262838/us-p...

The illustrious @kimberlynicholas.bsky.social brought so much to this effort to highlight Wildlife's Contributions to People - particularly their role in shaping ecosystems in ways that even impact climate mitigation! Did you know losing seed dispersers reduces forest carbon sequestration by 57%??

📣 Hey conservationsky! 🌍 We recently launched the WWF Fuller Science for Nature Seminar Series, Solutions for the Planet's Interlinked Challenges. This series brings together experts from the two most recent IPBES assessments (Nexus & Transformative Change): www.worldwildlife.org/pages/soluti...

Welp. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Noticed the white pelican for the first time on my regular running route.Thanks @rebeccasolnit.bsky.social for bringing some wonder back into my daily life!

What's up #conservation bluesky! 🦤 Tired of bad/sad/mad tipping points? Want to hear about some positive tipping points? Join us at the Lovejoy Symposium this Thursday! worldwildlife.org/lovejoy2024 Fully virtual for the first time ever, so you can join from anywhere in the 🌍! #conservationscience

Happy Thanksgiving!

WOW bluesky just blew up! I guess I should pay attention to it now...

🌍 Exciting Opportunity! CONVEI is awarding grants ($100K-$125K) OR fellowship to advance the  assessment of the values of Earth science information across a range of decision-making contexts. 🛰️🌱 Apply here: www.worldwildlife.org/projects/convei-collaborative-network-for-valuing-earth-information#rfp

Our new paper out yesterday shows the co-dependence of ecosystem services. In a previous effort we mapped the planet's critical natural assets for people and now we've mapped the areas that support those critical areas by providing moisture regulation. Open access at: doi.org/10.1017/sus....

Only 18% of global lands critical for biodiversity and supporting human well-being are protected and more than a third show high potential for development. Our paper out today shines a light on these high value areas & the need for strategic spatial planning so people & nature can thrive together!

Now, how to begin? My first tweet was a haiku. Good or bad omen?
