Greece tests eco-moorings to protect Mediterranean Posidonia seagrass.

New anchoring systems designed to protect Posidonia seagrass meadows – one of the Mediterranean’s most important yet fragile marine ecosystems – are being tested near Athens.

Posidonia seagrass is a key Mediterranean habitat that stores carbon, filters seawater and supports marine life.

Ever wondered what an environmental expert actually does? 🌿🏗️

I've used #NotebookLM to create an AI-generated deep dive into my professional work at #AgroNatura. It’s a fascinating look at the intersection of nature conservation and construction projects.

Check out this experiment to hear about the "behind-the-scenes" of environmental consulting:

Heute werfen wir den Blick über die Landesgrenze zu unseren Freunden aus GB. Dort wurde 1983 von Libellenkundigen die British Dragonfly Society (BDS) gegründet. Heute hat sie ca. 1800 Mitglieder. 2mal im Jahr veröffentlichen sie ihr Journal. Schaut gern vorbei: https://british-dragonflies.org.uk/, https://www.instagram.com/britishdragonflysociety/

Esto es muy grande!!!

The government of Galicia (Spain) just canceled the authorization of the *huge* industrial cellulose plant Altri! This is the result of continuous mobilizations by the local communities and environmentalists from the whole country.

A huge win!

#MOFGA - #PlantCorridors

By Heather McCargo, Photos by Jean English, Winter 2014-2015

"#NativePlant corridors attract #pollinators and #wildlife to your farm by stretching across your property to connect your piece of #NativeHabitat to nearby #meadows, #wetlands or #woodlands. This creates a much larger area for #NativePollinators to #forage, raise young and migrate. Corridors may run along a road, between fields, in a #swale or on the edge of a #forest, connecting habitats off the property and returning native plants to the parts of the farm not suitable for traditional crops.

This article describes two approaches to creating native habitat corridors: changing #mowing habits to favor native species, and planting woody and herbaceous combinations to increase native plant diversity on the farm.

Populations of all native species are in decline across the state. Our human footprint is taking its toll on wild creatures, including pollinators such as #bees and #butterflies that are so important on the farm for crop pollination. Native plant species each share an evolutionary history with indigenous insects, birds, reptiles, mammals, bacteria and fungi. When native plants are gone, many of these creatures go too, leading to a collapse of ecosystem function. Farmers benefit from the services provided by a healthy ecosystem, such as groundwater recharge; clean surface streams and ponds; pollination; a diversity of birds, spiders and amphibians to eat many insects including crop pests; and beneficial soil fungi and bacteria. Fortunately, when native plants are reintroduced into a landscape, many of these other creatures return.

As farmers and landowners, we can bring native plants, and the attendant diversity, back into the Maine landscape in a way that works with a farmer’s busy schedule. Many native plants thrive in dry, wet and shady areas that are poor sites for traditional farm crops."
