#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 286 Before entering hibernation in the autumn #bumblebee queens build up reserves of fat and glycogen in their bodies. These queens will lose up to 80% of their fat reserves during #hibernation over the winter period. #bees #nature #worldbeesanctuary #environment #biodiversity #insects #science #education #vegan

It took five decades of work, but one of the world’s driest regions is being transformed into a carbon sink. You’ve heard plenty about deforestation. @ScienceAlert@flipboard.com provides a more upbeat look at an afforestation project in northwestern China that may add one piece to the puzzle in the fight against climate change: https://flip.it/RS1Ldd #Science #Environment #ClimateChange #China

Containing words no one is supposed to read for feared influence of widespread dread and the collapse of everything, the books are not driven or influenced by mainstream literary styles and do not easily conform to one or few genres. Otherwise, in the author's opinion and suggested by the efforts of secrecy, they are essential, defining reading for our times.

When U.S. President Donald Trump took office in January 2025, he canceled a first-of-its-kind assessment of the health of nature. The researchers compiled it on their own and have released an 868-page draft for public comment and scientific review. Here's the @newyorktimes@flipboard.com story about the Nature Record [gift link]. At the second link, find the draft itself. https://flip.it/L4usEB https://naturerecord.org/chapters #Environment #Science #ClimateCrisis

Thanks to a minority of obscenely greedy egomaniacs and their submissive supporters, "survival of the fittest" has become "survival of the shittest." #billionaires #government #war #injustice #oppression #autocracy #GlobalWarming #environment #ClimateChange #climate #ClimateCrisis #ClimateDiary #ClimateAction #pollution #future #nature #Earth #world #humanity

Pauline Hanson charged taxpayers almost $9,000 for private plane to event honouring Gina Rinehart donation "The One Nation leader had been in Tamworth for a party dinner on Saturday 18 October, the night before the Rinehart event, amid speculation of Barnaby Joyce’s defection to the rightwing minor party." Remember that a vote for Hanson is not only a vote for 'Racism, Division and Hatred', it's also a vote for Gina Rinehart, Trumpism, and much more environmental destruction.. https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/mar/05/pauline-hanson-private-plane-gina-rinehart-event-taxpayers-money-ntwnfb #Corruption #News #AUSPol #Activism #HumanRights #Environment #ClimateChange

For the last 505 hours a Southern Water outfall has been feeding into the Itchen just north of Winchester city. This area is a site of preservation for chalkstream wildlife. So well hidden, the site of the outfall is looking difficult to reach. Really needs a drone and camera to find to search out samples. Feeling very underequipped to be a part of solution. If anyone knows anyone near the Winchester area who could genuinely be of assistance (expereince or means to get to hard to reach waterways) could they get in touch with the Winchester Green Party? contact@winchester.greenparty.org.uk A boost would be great, if anyone's feeling charitable. #environment #Itchen #sewage #Winchester #preservation #river

Vienna reclaims street space by ending free parking and turning parking spots into shade, trees and Dutch-style cycling. The city has run over 350 projects to swap asphalt for green/public space, including a ‘Dutch-inspired’ cycling street where 140 parking bays became 1.3 km of bike lanes and planting. Since 2022, all street parking has been paid, raising €180m/year, and nudging commuters to public transport #climate #ClimateChange #ClimateCrisis #environment #Wien #vienna #austria #bike https://www.dw.com/en/how-one-city-won-over-its-residents-to-turn-parking-into-green-space/a-75017286

Your circle either accelerates your health or quietly dismantles it. Surround yourself with driven, health-minded people and leveling up feels automatic. Choose your circle wisely. Environment shapes discipline. #discipline #environment #mindset

"It’s the most costly anti-climate policy in the Australian government budget, working against efforts to cut emissions. This financial year, taxpayers will hand over nearly $10.8bn to make it cheaper for miners, farmers and some other industries to use diesel and petrol. How much? Nearly $30m a day, every day of the year. Or $20,500 a minute, around the clock. It’s more than the government spends on the air force. It’s more than twice as much as it spends on foreign aid. It’s many times over what it spends on First Nations’ health."

"The environment minister, Murray Watt, has given the green light for the bulldozing of nearly 3,000 hectares of tropical savanna in the Northern Territory without an assessment under Australia’s nature laws. Top End Pastoral Company’s development would clear 2,723 hectares of woodland – an area 10 times the size of Sydney’s CBD" https://www.theguardian.com/australia-news/2026/feb/24/federal-green-light-bulldoze-tropical-savanna-northern-territory-threatened-species Murray Watt is an Environmental Terrorist, the GE-Labor Party HAS TO GO!! #MurrayWattIsATerrorist #Environment #ClimateChange #News #HumanRights #Activism #AUSPol

If anyone seeing this needs reminding, releasing balloons has quite a bad impact on wildlife. (Also "Chinese lanterns "). Please don't do it!
