* What kids told us about eco‑anxiety
"This is our home.
If we destroy it, and we can’t build it up,
then that’s a part of the Earth that’s destroyed,
and we won’t be able to get it back."
Matthew, age ten
"Eco-anxiety is a rational response to a real threat." >>

* "Mental health seems to be having a bigger toll on people's ability to work...More than 8 million people rely on income support, driven by a growing number of mental health claims."
"With around 2 million more people now accessing payments than a decade ago, the surge is being driven by Australians whose physical and mental health has deteriorated to the point they can no longer work." >>

Warming seas can threaten the hidden relationship that supports seagrass meadows
"Seagrasses are often overlooked, but they are among the most important coastal habitats on Earth."
"Our findings highlight an important idea: the impacts of climate change on seagrasses can’t be understood by looking at the plants alone. The microbial communities living in the sediment can also influence how these plants respond to warming. "
"This has important implications for conservation and restoration. Around the world, seagrass meadows are declining due to coastal development, pollution and climate change. "

#Nature is were we live, today l want to share with you our work and sweat from hard work, but it doesn't mean we'll destroy the nature, today l want to share with our garden of cabbage, as well organised but we don't have more knowledge on it on how we can care them in order to give us high yields but as you #farmers who grow #cabbages we need help from you on how we can make it.

‘We don’t hear the frogs, we don’t see the birds’:
government repeatedly delayed water to NSW wetlands, documents reveal
"The New South Wales government has routinely delayed environmental flows to critical wetlands in the state’s north-west in favour of farming, despite admitting it could harm the breeding cycles of frogs and endangered birds and damage local ecosystems."
“I was furious when I saw the impact that delaying the delivery of environmental water is having on the wetlands and the thousands of waterbirds and other animals that rely upon healthy wetland ecosystems to survive." >>

“High in the mountains of #Colombia, cloud #forests create one of the most biodiverse ecosystems on the planet. Here, the flora, fauna, and fungi of three #ecosystems mix together, creating an incredible density of species. But cattle pasture continues to fragment and degrade this special landscape – a practice dating back to colonial times. That’s why, together with Planet Wild and Fundación Magnolios, we’ve purchased land to protect it and support the forest’s natural regeneration.”

National environmental standards ?
"Federal government accused of watering down proposal to protect Australia’s threatened species and ecosystems."
“There’s no requirement for these processes to actually deliver the outcomes and objectives expressed in the standard.”
"...Australia’s populations of threatened species had declined, on average, by 50% over the past two decades." >>
