URL: From enwl at enw.net.ru Fri Dec 2 17:16:18 2022 From: enwl at enw.net.ru (ENWL) Date: Fri, 2 Dec 2022 18:16:18 +0400 Subject: *[Enwl-eng] 15 Years Together Message-ID: Fifteen years ago, The Story of Stuff premiered on a young social media platform called YouTube. Annie?s 20-minute animated exploration of where our Stuff comes from and where it goes when we throw it away became an iconic online film beloved by millions around the world. Annie breaks down the exploitative linear economy in The Story of Stuff The steadfast partnership of friends like you is one of the main reasons why our team still carries on the spirit of the original Story of Stuff all these years later: telling stories that illuminate the social and environmental costs of our relationship with Stuff; fielding campaigns that mobilize our Community members, viewers and others to meaningful action; and bringing together diverse partners, grassroots groups and underrepresented communities, to achieve our shared goals. Celebrating our 15th anniversary with you is a great honor, and we?re excited to share with you what we have planned for the future. Storytelling is at the heart of who we are: it?s how we frame the challenges we face, drive support toward the solutions we love and inspire our Community members to flex their citizen muscles. We made a big shift in our award-winning storytelling on the plastics crisis this year with the launch of Solving Plastic, a miniseries profiling meaningful solutions to runaway single-use plastic consumption. The series has been a big success, drawing significant view counts across our social media channels and, more importantly, giving us the opportunity to introduce you to the organizations, companies and individuals pioneering a plastic-free future. This winter we?ll produce four additional Solving Plastic features, bringing the total number of videos in the series near a dozen. We?ll also focus on creating a suite of wraparound tools to go with the series, including a study guide, additional information on the website about the profiled solutions and webinars ? open to all Community members ? with the profiled companies or organizations. Our solutions-oriented storytelling approach continues in early 2023 with the release of Burning Injustice (working title), our short documentary profiling the multi-generational fight to close one of California?s two remaining solid waste incinerators ? Covanta Stanislaus ? and return Modesto, CA and surrounding communities to their zero waste roots. Through vivid, human-centered storytelling we?ll paint a striking picture of environmental racism and injustice and make the moral argument for the incinerator?s closure. We?ll also highlight our Grassroots Grantee and partner Valley Improvement Project?s efforts to return Modesto to environmental trailblazer status, enabling us to meet a critical goal in our plastic solutions storytelling: ensuring that we center solutions that most benefit communities that have borne the brunt of the plastic pollution itself. We?ll also be producing a five-minute video explainer on the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations that got underway this past summer, drawing back the veil for viewers by helping them understand what the proposed treaty is all about, why it matters and how folks can encourage our governments to adopt the strongest possible terms. Multilateral institutions and agreements are famously opaque to all but the most technically informed and capable. Our explainer will break it all down: we?ll assess which countries are on board, which need to be pushed and the contours of their disputes; we?ll discuss the role global corporations are poised to play in the negotiations and the ways in which advocates are pushing back; and we?ll explore ways for ordinary citizens to hold their leaders? feet to the fire. While telling great stories is at the heart of everything we do, we also believe that information alone won?t win the change we need. So we couple our storytelling with citizen action. Our campaigns are meant to both have a strategic impact on the way we make, use and throw away Stuff as well as inspire our Community to learn, participate and grow. Like our storytelling, our plastics-related campaigning is increasingly solutions oriented: in California this year we were successful in influencing and passing legislation that will give state agency CalRecycle hundreds of millions of dollars over the coming three years to modernize our container deposit system, including a $25 million dollar investment to facilitate the transition to refillables. Over the coming months, we?ll be pushing the state to spend those dollars in under-resourced communities, in particular those who?ve borne the brunt of the current waste system, to encourage a just transition. That push is part of a broader effort we?re undertaking around the country to use the scale of deposit systems to build refillable bottle infrastructure. We also expect to join with others to introduce a principled national bottle bill, staking out what a strong and successful federal deposit return system could look like. And while we await the final ruling in our California Water Board case against water bottling giant BlueTriton, which continues to remove tens of millions of gallons of water from the San Bernardino National Forest, we?ll continue to press the U.S. Forest Service to explain why it gave the company a new special use permit recently despite the apparent lack of a complete application! Of course, fighting plastics isn?t the only thing on our Community?s agenda. We?ll continue to support Right to Repair bills around the country and this coming spring we?re hoping to ramp up our support for the labor, environmental and other networks putting the heat on Amazon. More on that soon. Throughout our history we?ve made a point of playing well with others and that has continued to be a winning strategy for the Story of Stuff Project to this day. Our centerpiece Grassroots Grants program will make $100,000 in small grants to predominantly people of color-led and serving grassroots groups this year, a new high point in the program?s giving. In 2023, we?ll continue to award a total of $100,000 in direct grants, and raise additional funds for program outcomes, like media collaborations and other ?beyond the dollars? support for our grantees. Story of Stuff Grassroots Grantee Rio Grande International Study Center's Campaign to Eliminate Ethylene Oxide Emissions in Laredo, TX I?m continuously amazed at the eagerness of organizations large and small to collaborate with us, something that is no doubt rooted in our Community?s continued engagement and generosity.

News of the world environment NEWSLETTER | DECEMBER 2, 2022 Paper Cuts It has been a tough week for those of us who value news, and especially those of us who work in journalism. The news industry is getting hit by sweeping layoffs: Gannett newspapers made a big round of cuts, as did CNN. The Washington Post cut its weekly Sunday magazine, laying off seasoned, award-winning journalists in the process. As Axios reports, thanks to the economic slowdown, rising inflation, and resultant lack of advertising dollars, ?more than 3,000 jobs have been cut through October this year? and more are coming.? So many of my colleagues are now suddenly without jobs. Many of them are journalism veterans ? reporters and editors ? who have spent years learning how to listen, how to investigate, how to uncover and craft fact-based stories that help us make sense of the world we live in. In a social media saturated world, where a lie so easily masquerades as truth, the work they had been doing was crucial. (Just as the work we do here at the Journal is crucial.) Ironically, though, this week I received a beautiful gift. It came as a LinkedIn message from a former student-reporter I?d mentored as an editor while at The Statesman, a daily newspaper in Kolkata, India, nearly 25 years ago. Rupali, who is in her late 30s, had tracked me down after all this time to let me know that I?d been an inspiration for her and had helped shape her career. ?Just wanted to thank you for indirectly giving a shape to my personality,? she wrote. Such messages are rare and heartwarming. Her words reminded me of the many mentors and journalism heroes I?ve looked up to, who have helped shape my career trajectory as well. It?s been hard, watching news of more and more cuts roll in, and realizing how much collective wisdom is being lost. But Rupali?s note demonstrates: No matter how hard the industry gets, and how hard it is to keep the Fourth Estate going, there's always the hope of a new generation who wants to speak truth to power. Thank you, reader, for keeping us going. And thank you Rupali, for your kind, kind words.

This is horrifying and we must demand the Chinese government intervene now to stop this! Not only are factory farms notoriously cruel, treating sentient beings as though they are nothing more than items to be sadistically brutalized, but they are also bad for human health. Multiple infectious disease experts have spoken out against this massive facility, explaining that high-density facilities like this contribute to the spread of huge disease outbreaks. Animal agriculture is also deeply intertwined with worsening climate change. The more we increase meat production, the worse for the Earth. Back in 2019, China's Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs released a policy that permitted corporations to build high-rise, high-density facilities for breeding and slaughtering animals. We must urge this government agency to reverse course in order to save animals from horrific suffering, humans from more pandemics, and the Earth from climate crisis. Sign the petition now!

One of the Most Vile Pig Factories in the UK Has Been Shut Down Sign Now Flat House Farm was one of the largest pig factory farms in the United Kingdom. Then an investigation revealed that not only had the company been harming its captive animals -- it had also broken UK law. The animal rights organization Viva! conducted an investigation, and its footage from inside the company's facilities were damning. Video depicts feral cats eating pigs alive, emaciated pigs living in horrific conditions, and rotting corpses sprawled on the floor of the factory. Now, thankfully, this abusive factory farm operation has finally shut down! UK regulators must ensure no other farms can get away with this type of cruelty again. The farm's parent company, Elvidge Farms Ltd, pled guilty to breaching animal welfare and was fined. But without the external investigation by the animal rights group, it is unclear if Flat House Farm would have ever been shut down at all. We must encourage the United Kingdom's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs to step up its regulatory enforcement and ensure no other factory farms ever produce the conditions that Flat House Farm did. Sign the petition to thank the UK government for its enforcement of the Animal Welfare Act of 2006, and demand even faster, stricter enforcement in the future. Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S. This amazing victory for factory farmed animals and animal rights activists only came after countless piggies endured horrible suffering.

News of the world environment NEWSLETTER | NOVEMBER 4, 2022 Building Bridges Over the past two weeks, in perfectly timed theater ahead of the mid-term elections, a fleet of trucks have been dragging in massive shipping containers and placing them along a remote, 10-mile stretch of the Coronado National Monument in Arizona?s Sonoran Desert. The double-stacked containers are supposed to fill gaps in the US-Mexico border wall. Arizona Governor Doug Ducey ordered their installation in response to what he calls ?inaction? by the Biden Administration to stop undocumented migrants entering from Mexico. The stunt has led to a legal face-off between Ducey and the feds. From an environmental standpoint, the makeshift wall damages public land and jeopardizes wildlife. It blocks a key corridor for endangered jaguars and ocelots and other migratory species. But in addition to that, as Robin Silver, co-founder of the Center for Biological Diversity told The Intercept: ?It?s designed purely to foment or promote more fearfulness among Ducey?s racist followers so more of them will show up and vote because they?re afraid of the invasion from the south by brown people.? The whole fracas has had me thinking about walls, in both physical and metaphysical terms, and of how relatively easy they are to build compared to bridges. As with many environmental organizations, we at Earth Island are engaged in a long racial reckoning process, as we seek to create a more equitable and inclusive organization. For the past several months, staff and leadership have met in an earnest attempt at this reckoning, and let me tell you, we are running up against walls all the time. Walls each of us have created to protect ourselves from things we fear ? failure, pain, criticism, othering? the list is long. Some of us are now finally at a stage where we are learning to come out from behind those walls. That work is hard enough alone. But to then build bridges across our differences? That is going to be so much more difficult, especially if we allow fear to rule. In the months ahead, I hope we have progress to report. For now, I can say there is a process, if not progress. More broadly, I?m wondering if this is not the challenge of our times ? for all of us, Ducey and his ilk included. How can we break down all these walls and build bridges instead?

The Summit will continue the dialogue we started in New York and Sharm el-Sheikh, and takes place alongside the most decisive event of all for our natural world, as decision-makers finalise the new Global Biodiversity Framework at UNCBD COP15. At this critical moment for nature, it is important that all stakeholders are on board, from leaders within business and finance, to key government decision-makers and influential civil society organisations. It is crucial that all are aligned in their ambitions to work towards adopting a new Global Biodiversity Framework. World Biodiversity Summit takes place in the middle of the UNCBD COP15 and the sessions at the Summit address the most crucial issues in biodiversity. They are tailored for a cross-sector discussion of the key elements in the new Framework and adopt a forward-looking and action-oriented focus, providing a platform for experts to offer recommendations to the Framework based on the industry insights and examples of best practice they can share. Doing so can contribute to the development of a Framework that is viable yet ambitious and that offers opportunities to all pertinent stakeholders. Join Us Digitally Thanks to overwhelming interest, all tickets for in-person access are now reserved. However, if you would like to join us digitally and benefit from the insightful, high-level discussions, you can register for digital participation today. SESSIONS INCLUDE: Regenerative Agriculture: Building Resilience Across the Value Chain A transition towards resilient and nature-positive food systems is fundamental to reducing pressure on biodiversity and ensuring food security. Considering nature-based solutions, finance and regenerative agriculture practices, how can we stimulate this transition? This panel session will gather experts, policymakers, innovators and investors to tackle how to stimulate resilient food production and security to support global biodiversity. Biodiversity Solutions for All: Towards an Inclusive Nature-Positive Future Ensuring that nature-positive solutions to the biodiversity crisis include and benefit all relevant stakeholders globally is not just a matter of justice, but also a matter of ensuring the sustainability, resilience and effectiveness of such solutions. In this session, selected speakers representing diverse stakeholders will outline why the inclusion of local peoples and indigenous communities in biodiversity decision-making is integral to ensuring the success of the new Global Biodiversity Framework. From Linear to Circular: Innovating Our Economy for a Nature-Positive Future Shifting to a circular economy has enormous potential when it comes to tackling biodiversity loss. However, shifting the cradle-to-grave model into cradle-to-cradle requires a major rethink on a societal level. This session will adopt a future-oriented focus, as panellists will discuss how we can catalyse the necessary transition to circularity and offer their insights to the innovations that will drive the circular economy of the future. From Commitment to Implementation: Actionable Leadership for Nature The Post-2020 Global Biodiversity Framework has the potential to be a turning point for the protection of nature and in the fight against biodiversity loss. However, meeting the long-term vision of ?living in harmony with nature by 2050? will require strong leadership in the short term in order to translate the new targets into action. In this closing panel, key stakeholders will reflect on the Framework under negotiation of COP15, and the role that different sectors will need to play to build a nature-positive future.

Fungi Have Long Been Neglected in Conservation. Let's Change That! Sign Now Fungi are amazing: they make soil, digest pollutants, help make human medicines and even produce food. More than 90% of plants on earth depend on symbiotic fungi! Yet while these organisms are absolutely vital to life on our planet, we know relatively little about fungi overall, and there is scant attention paid to their conservation. But a simple added category could fix that and make sure earth's precious fungi are protected. It is time conservation organizations around the world add a third "F" of funga to their existing lists of flora and fauna! Unfortunately, because fungi don't fit neatly into "flora" or "fauna," they are often overlooked by major conservation organizations. We must protect and continue to study these miraculous organisms! Sign now to tell the international conservation community: embrace the third "F" and protect fungi as much as flora and fauna! Thank you, Kelsey Care2 Petitions Team P.S.

Speakers: Anne Petermann, Executive Director, Global Justice Ecology Project, Souparna Lahiri, Climate and Biodiversity Policy Advisor, Global Forest Coalition, Tom Wakeford, Europe Director, ETC Group and Lucas A. Garibaldi, co-Chair, Intergovernmental Panel on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services The Global Biodiversity Framework being negotiated at COP 15 includes proposals for so-called Business for Nature or Nature-Positive Business, ?30x30? and biotechnology for biodiversity protection. These are being pushed forward as major ?solutions? to the biodiversity crisis, even though they have been designed to advance business as usual through the promotion of offsets, land grabs and dangerous new unproven technologies. "The expansion of so-called 'protected areas' and offsets under these concepts of "Nature-positive" or "Nature Based Solutions" have nothing to do with halting biodiversity loss. They are only about paving the way for business and enabling ongoing biodiversity destruction and climate change emission through the promotion of protected areas as biodiversity offsets," stated Souparna Lahiri of Global Forest Coalition. "If you really want to protect and conserve biodiversity, we must actually halt biodiversity loss." The rapid advancement of new, extreme and unproven technologies is leading to renewed calls demanding application of the Precautionary principle?including "horizon scanning" to help identify and reign in risky new and emerging technologies before they are implemented. "Countries here negotiating the protection of global biodiversity must retain the Precautionary principle on which the CBD was founded. The text agreed here must ensure that society builds participatory mechanisms to scan the horizon for future risky technologies, assess new technologies that are already in development, such as gene drive organisms, and monitor existing technologies for potential harmful impact. The disastrous ecological and human health consequences of the last 20 years of GM crop cultivation are a lesson in what happens when none of these three processes takes place effectively, one highlighted in Kenya last month," said Tom Wakeford of ETC Group. Particular concerns revolve around the impacts of new genetic engineering technologies on pollinators. "The proposed release into wild forests of genetically engineered American chestnut trees designed to spread and contaminate native wild relatives is a real world example of the need for the application of the Precautionary Principle. This would be the first ever release of a GMO plant to replicate in the wild and there have been no risk assessments on the long-term impacts on forest ecosystems, biodiversity, local communities, or on pollinators that eat the genetically engineered tree pollen," added Anne Petermann of Global Justice Ecology Project. A summary of points from the Appeal from scientists and policy experts asking world leaders at COP15 to apply Precautionary principle on biotechnologies that may harm insect pollinators: "The release of organisms, products or components obtained through genetic biotechnologies, could amplify the current stressors pollinators are already experiencing. It is not possible to provide robust and reliable risk assessments to ensure that pollinators? decline will not be further precipitated by the release of these biotechnologies. Therefore, there must be a strict application of the UN Precautionary Principle." "In agriculture, genetic biotechnologies are oriented to maintain business as usual: large monocultures that are destroying biodiversity. At COP 15, we should focus on how to redesign working landscapes to conserve and restore biodiversity while producing enough nutritious food. There are many examples from agroecological farms around the world showing that this is feasible," added Lucas A. Garibaldi, co-Chair of IPBES and co-author of the Appeal. In 2008 the UN CBD COP in Bonn Germany made a decision regarding GE trees that urged countries to take a Precautionary Approach due to the lack of information regarding the impacts of GE trees on forest biological diversity or on Indigenous peoples and local communities. Despite that, companies and researchers in the US and Brazil are advancing plans to release GE trees on a large scale. In the US, the Department of Agriculture has recommended approving the release of the genetically engineered American chestnut into forests under the guise of "conservation" despite its ecological, social and socio-economic risks. They are accepting public comments on this draft approval.

As I looked back at the fragile blue jewel of our planet I promised myself that I would do everything I could to protect our one and only home. That's why I'm writing -- as you read this, governments from around the world are meeting at a major summit in Montreal to decide whether to massively scale up protections for the environment, or let the planet go. So I am personally asking you to join me in backing the global call to protect half the Earth, and help make it massive. Add your name, with just one click, and I will work with the Avaaz team to deliver it directly to key leaders during the meeting. Add Your Name To world leaders: "We call on you to meet existing targets to protect biodiversity, forge a new agreement so that at least 50% of our lands and oceans are conserved, protected and restored, and ensure our planet is completely sustainably managed. This must take into consideration the needs of human development, and have the active support and leadership of indigenous peoples." Sign now: Protect our one and only home! Last year, I had a life-changing experience at 90 years old. I went to space, after decades of playing an iconic science-fiction character who was exploring the universe. I thought I would experience a deep connection with the immensity around us, a deep call for endless exploration. I was absolutely wrong. The strongest feeling, that dominated everything else by far, was the deepest grief that I had ever experienced. I understood, in the clearest possible way, that we were living on a tiny oasis of life, surrounded by an immensity of death. I didn?t see infinite possibilities of worlds to explore, of adventures to have, or living creatures to connect with. I saw the deepest darkness I could have ever imagined, contrasting so starkly with the welcoming warmth of our nurturing home planet. This was an immensely powerful awakening for me. It filled me with sadness. I realized that we had spent decades, if not centuries, being obsessed with looking away, with looking outside. I did my share in popularizing the idea that space was the final frontier. But I had to get to space to understand that Earth is and will stay our only home. And that we have been ravaging it, relentlessly, making it uninhabitable. Sign now: Protect our one and only home!

It all started with an animated film that explored where our Stuff comes from, and where it goes when we throw it away. This month marks 15 years since the original Story of Stuff was released on YouTube! Storytelling is still the heart of who we are: it?s how we frame the challenges we face, drive support toward the solutions we love and inspire our Community members to flex their citizen muscles. Your support over the years is why we continue to tell the stories that matter. And to celebrate our 15th anniversary, we?re excited to share with you what our media team has planned for the future. Will you make a contribution to support our work today? This year, our award-winning storytelling on the plastics crisis shifted focus to solutions. Solving Plastic, a miniseries profiling meaningful solutions to runaway single-use plastic consumption, has been a big success, drawing more than a million views across our social media channels and, more importantly, giving us the opportunity to introduce you to the organizations, companies and individuals pioneering a plastic-free future. Our latest Solving Plastic release featured RePack, a company imagining a future free of excess single-use packaging. With tens of billions of packages shipped every year in the U.S. alone, services like RePack ? which lease reusable bags to online retailers ? can save up to 80% of CO2 emissions from shipping and reduce packaging waste by a whopping 99%. Before the holidays, we?ll drop another video featuring the Buy Nothing Project ? an innovative gift economy that allows us to share more, and buy less. We?ll also create a suite of wraparound tools to go with the series, including a study guide, additional information on our website about the profiled solutions, and webinars ? open to all Community members ? with the profiled companies or organizations. Our solutions-oriented storytelling continues in early 2023 with the release of Burning Injustice (working title), our short documentary profiling the multi-generational fight to close one of California?s two remaining solid waste incinerators ? Covanta Stanislaus ? and return Modesto, CA and surrounding communities to their zero waste roots. Through vivid, human-centered storytelling we?ll paint a striking picture of environmental racism and injustice and make the moral argument for the incinerator?s closure. We?ll also highlight our Grassroots Grantee and partner Valley Improvement Project?s efforts to return Modesto to environmental trailblazer status, enabling us to meet a critical goal in our plastic solutions storytelling: ensuring that we center solutions that most benefit communities that have borne the brunt of the plastic pollution itself. We?ll also be producing a five-minute video explainer on the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations that got underway this past summer, drawing back the veil for viewers by helping them understand what the proposed treaty is all about, why it matters and how folks can encourage our governments to adopt the strongest possible terms. Storytelling has always been one of our most important tools in the fight against too much Stuff. And ever since that first Story of Stuff video premiered 15 years ago, you have helped us tell those stories, bringing the vision of a better world ? one that values sustainability and justice as much as we value our Stuff ? closer to reality. Make a contribution today to support our work in 2023. From all of us at Story of Stuff, thank you. We wouldn?t be here without you.

They're Getting Hunters to Kill 10,000 Minks That Escaped a Deadly Fur Farm Sign Now Lion Farms USA, a fur farm in Ohio, used to hold tens of thousands of minks captive in tiny containers. The poor little animals sat in fear until handlers would pry them out of the cages, viciously kill them, and ultimately skin the creatures for their fur. Then, some likely well-intentioned person or group of people decided to try and save these animals from such a horrific, torture-filled fate. They released up to 40,000 of the captive mink -- which could have been a good thing! But then authorities started bringing in trappers to painfully catch and kill the escaped animals. They even authorized civilians to slaughter any free-roaming minks they encountered. Already, most of the animals are dead. Experts estimate that only around 10,000 remain alive and free. Ohio government officials must do their part to capture and rehome these animals -- without killing them! Sign the petition! Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S.

Sign Now The U.S. military is the largest on the whole planet, and other countries' military sizes don't even come close. Receiving a whopping $800 billion every year in government funding, the U.S. military alone emits more greenhouse gasses than the majority of entire nations. In fact, the Department of Defense consumes almost 80% of fuel used by the entire U.S. government. One report even found that the military has emitted more than 1.2 billion metric tons of greenhouse gases since the beginning of the War on Terror in 2001. A single Humvee vehicle provides somewhere between 4-8 miles of transit per gallon of fuel used. An F-35 fighter jet is even worse, requiring 2.37 gallons per each mile. The Department of Defense has literally never passed a single government financial audit. So why do we keep trusting it with so much money? Those funds could be better used elsewhere, such as on programs to fight climate change. The clock is ticking on decarbonizing the planet and solving the ecological crisis we created before it is too late. It is time for Congress to stop wasting money, and to stop contributing to so much climate chaos. It must reduce the military budget, and fund programs and research that will help solve the climate crisis instead! Sign the petition now if you agree! Thank you, Miranda Care2 Petitions Team P.S.

The potential of this treaty is huge. An international agreement that tackles plastic and its harmful impacts could transform our take, make, waste economy. But at the same time, the question remains of whether this treaty will be strong enough, or if industry and resistant countries will derail the progress that could be achieved. Delegates have just wrapped up the first round of discussions at INC-1 (Intergovernmental Negotiating Committee) in Uruguay, and will continue to negotiate treaty terms over the next few years. The Story of Stuff is working alongside movement partners to advocate for an ambitious and binding treaty that addresses the entire life cycle of plastics, from fossil fuel extraction all the way to disposal and incineration. We will be delivering a petition to governments, leaders and national representatives worldwide calling for a Global Plastics Treaty that: a.. Is legally binding and has deadlines to cap and reduce plastic production, accelerating the transition away from single-use plastics and towards reuse and refill. b.. Rejects false solutions like waste incineration, chemical ?recycling?, waste-to-energy, international dumping and other industry-supported efforts to continue business-as-usual plastic production. c.. Prioritizes the health, livelihoods and expertise of frontline workers and communities across the plastics' life cycle. d.. Include provisions that hold polluting corporations and plastic producing countries accountable. Vladimir, will you sign and share this petition? Tell global leaders: We need an ambitious plastics treaty! After INC-1, we are heartened to see countries in Latin American & the Caribbean, Africa and Southeast Asia, especially small island states, show up in force with a strong voice for urgency and ambition in these treaty negotiations. On the other hand, some countries including the United States are currently uninterested in a comprehensive, multilateral treaty and plastic production caps. Instead, they are putting their support behind non-binding, individualized national plans that leave too much room for industry greenwashing and lack of real progress. Can you sign on and help us push your home country to play a constructive role in the following round of discussions at INC-2? By coming together as engaged global citizens, we can continue applying pressure where needed, in order to realize a Global Plastics Treaty that can truly change the way plastics are produced, used and thrown away.

In November, the Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, known as COP27, took place. This year it was overshadowed by Russia's military intervention in Ukraine. The sanctions that followed Russia?s invasion and the escalation of the most significant international confrontation since the Cold War have called the achievement of the main goal of climate policy ? limiting the increase in surface temperature at 1.5-2? Celsius ? into question. It has become unclear how countries will reach agreement in a situation where one of the main greenhouse gas emitters (Russia) is carrying out a military invasion of a neighboring state. Against the backdrop of this war, less attention and fewer resources are devoted to the climate issue, and the world?s energy sector and food markets are being restructured. The topic of the war did not take center stage at the meeting in Sharm el-Sheikh. Countries did agree on the creation of a financial ?Loss and Damage? compensation fund for the states most affected by climate change and that lack the financial ability to adapt to it. However, when it came to new targets for reducing emissions or gradually reducing fossil fuel use, the summit did not bring major breakthroughs. One way or another, the war was a topic of conversation at COP27. It was certainly a theme at Ukraine?s pavilion, the presence of which was a first for the summit. Special for UWEC Work Group, Tetiana Zhavzharova of Ukrainian Climate Network analyzed the main events held at Ukraine?s pavilion. It was the first time that volumes of additional greenhouse gas emissions caused by the military invasion were presented, amounting to 82.8 million tons of CO2. This figure is comparable to the total emissions of some individual nations and is a preliminary calculation. Additionally, these numbers stem from monitoring on only the Ukrainian side; Russia does not publish its data. Ukraine?s recovery was also a topic of discussion at its pavilion. Such a plan must be based not only on ?green? solutions, such as energy independence, sustainable economy, and renewable energy, but also on the principles of a just transition and gender equality. a.. What Ukraine took home from COP27. Results of the most significant climate event in the world Unlike Ukraine, the Russian delegation was remembered not so much for its thoughts about the future, but for its unwillingness to give up the past. Maintaining a low profile at the summit and avoiding loud statements or their own separate pavilion, Russian representatives reaffirmed their unwillingness to abandon carbon fuel, lobbied for nuclear energy, and generally made rather ambiguous statements, including calling the human impact on climate change into question, as well as proposing to play hockey on an icebreaker ship in Antarctica. a.. COP 27: Russia dissatisfied by sanctions but refuses to admit why The Russian delegation?s main COP27 presentation took place on the same day that Ukraine's civilian infrastructure came under the heaviest shelling. Many homes, hospitals, sewage treatment plants, businesses, and other facilities were left without power. As a result of this and subsequent attacks, all of Ukraine?s nuclear power plants were forced to temporarily switch to emergency mode. This juxtaposition of Russia?s actions was one of the reasons for civil society protests against Russia during the summit. Svitlana Romanko, Founder and Director of Razom We Stand, was an active participant. We are pleased to share the transcript of her interview on the Eurasian Climate Brief podcast. a.. The Eurasian Climate Brief Interview with Svitlana Romanenko We invited UWEC Work Group Co-editor Angelina Davydova to summarize the results of COP27. Although the war was not on the summit agenda, it is clear that it influenced a number of decisions. Fears of an energy crisis prevented countries from making a more ambitious decision to move away from fossil fuels. Gas extraction in Africa was also an urgent topic at the summit, as the war and resulting sanctions provoke increased resource extraction around the world. The Russian invasion is the ?elephant in the room? that many try to ignore, despite its direct effect on global climate policy. a.. ?Hamster principle? and COP 27. How has the war changed the climate agenda? We will continue to monitor the war?s environmental consequences on both our website, on Twitter and Facebook pages. Join the conversation!

As some of the largest lakes in the world, these large bodies of freshwater are home to some 3,500 species, and millions of people depend on the health of the lakes for drinking water and recreation. Now, a new magnet technology could help scientists clean up the lakes and remove these toxic microplastics from the water! Sign now to demand Congress immediately provide funding to research and fast track this amazing technology so it can be widely used as soon as possible! Ground-breaking research at RMT University in Melbourne, Australia has led to the discovery of a way to dramatically reduce the amount of microplastics in water! Researchers found that using magnets, hazardous materials like microplastics can be extracted sustainably from water in just an hour. The situation in the Great Lakes is dire, and companies that contribute to the microplastics crisis must be held responsible. But in the meantime, thanks to scientists, there is hope. Sign now to tell Congress: we cannot wait any longer! Fast-track funding for this amazing magnet technology and save our Great Lakes before it is too late!

Despite the fact that there are more voices and perspectives than ever, the biggest megaphones are available only to the wealthy and powerful. The swell of media monopolies continues to crowd out publications that don?t fit the corporate media model. When these publications close, it takes years for replacements to fill their absence.

To make things worse, in just the last few weeks, the news industry was rocked by sweeping layoffs. a.. Newspaper giant Gannett cut another 6 percent of its workforce, the second round of layoffs this year. b.. The Washington Post shuttered its weekly Sunday magazine, leaving a roster of seasoned, award-winning journalists jobless. c.. Politico plans to wind down Protocol, the tech news website launched just two years ago. Sadly, the list doesn't stop there. Outside Magazine. CNN. Morning Brew. In fact, 2022 was the worst year for media jobs since 2008. The quest for massive scale has distorted how the media works, and consolidated power and resources into a handful of big corporate media giants. Independent publications are left with broken business models and make do by scraping together crumbs. On top of that, Big Tech algorithms distort the incentives for producing quality journalism. Instead of shared facts, community discourse, and an informed populace, big social media companies often reward peddlers of snazzy sound bites, disinformation, and propaganda campaigns. It?s no wonder so many people distrust the media these days.

Hi Vladimir, After a successful year of campaigning against runaway plastic production and consumption, we?re excited to share with you what our campaigns team has planned for 2023! The plastics problem continues to be exceptionally and uniquely emblematic of the downsides of the take, make, waste economy. And, our Community ? that?s you! ? have indicated that solving it is a clear priority. So, plastics will be a central focus of our campaigning next year, as we take on various stages in plastic?s nefarious lifecycle. In other words, we?ll tackle extraction and production through our support of grassroots groups fighting the petrochemical buildout in the Gulf Coast and the Ohio River Valley; recycling, through our work to modernize the bottle bill in California and beyond; and incineration, with our upcoming documentary Burning Injustice, in support of an ongoing campaign to end state subsidies to Modesto?s incineration plant and shut down the facility for good. Will you pitch in to help us field high-impact campaigns in 2023 and beyond? To top it all off, we?ll be closely following the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations, pushing for an ambitious, binding agreement. And, we?ll bring transparency to a typically opaque process, with a video explainer to break it all down: we?ll assess which countries are on board, which need to be pushed and the contours of their disputes; we?ll discuss the role global corporations are poised to play in the negotiations and the ways in which advocates are pushing back; and we?ll explore ways for ordinary citizens to hold their leaders? feet to the fire. While telling great stories is at the heart of everything we do, we also believe that information alone won?t win the change we need. So we couple our storytelling with citizen action. Our campaigns are meant to both have a strategic impact on the way we make, use and throw away Stuff as well as inspire our Community to learn, participate and grow. Support our campaigns team in 2023 and beyond Looking ahead, we?re especially excited to provide you more opportunities to participate in changemaking. Building off the citizen science project and virtual sessions we held this year with members of our California Community, we will continue to develop webinars, trainings, and community town halls that you can virtually join from anywhere in the world. Of course, fighting plastics isn?t the only thing on our Community?s agenda. We?ll continue to support Right to Repair bills around the country and this coming spring we?re hoping to ramp up our support for the labor, environmental and other networks putting the heat on Amazon. More on that soon. Likewise, our ongoing campaign to Unbottle Water, with its intersections at plastics, environmental justice and climate change-induced drought, will continue to be a focus into next year. While we await the final ruling in our California Water Board case against water bottling giant BlueTriton, which continues to remove tens of millions of gallons of water from the San Bernardino National Forest, we?ll keep pressing the U.S. Forest Service to explain why it gave the company a new special use permit recently despite the apparent lack of a complete application! As you can see, we?ve got our work cut out for us, but we?re confident you?ll have our backs ? like you have for the past 15 years! Pitch in today and keep our engine of changemaking going strong.

List the Tiny Fennec Fox as an Endangered Species! Sign Now The fennec fox is the smallest species of fox in the whole world. Standing just 8 inches tall with adorably large ears, the fennec fox weighs only 2 to 3 pounds on average. It's even shorter and smaller than an average housecat! But these charming creatures are hunted at alarming rates, and conservationists are worried. This adorable little fox is native to the Sahara Desert. Scientists believe the fox's iconic large ears were one of ways the species adapted to a harsh, devastatingly hot desert climate. Fennec foxes are also highly social animals, living in groups of roughly 10 other foxes. The animals develop close bonds with their peers and even play with one another well into adulthood. But all of these wonderful traits can't save this species from aggressive hunting. That's why conservation organizations must act soon. It is time the IUCN finally list the fennec fox on the endangered species list so that it can receive the protections it needs! Sign the petition now to protect these wonderful tiny mammals.

Sincerely Baktygul Chynybaeva -- Communication Manager CAN EECCA https://caneecca.org/ +996550532555 @ChynybaevaB Climate Action Network Eastern Europe, Caucasus and Central Asia Digest of news on climate change and energy issues Web site Facebook Telegram Twitter Instagram Someone forwarded this digest to you? You can subscribe using this link Climate chronicle of the war To Activate Hope, Activate Capital The atmosphere at the end of last month?s United Nations Climate Change Conference (COP27) in Egypt was rather sobering. Russia?s invasion of Ukraine has forced countries to turn to thermal coal and other fossil fuels to meet their energy needs, likely postponing the transition to a net-zero economy. But COP27 also underscored the need to leverage public policy, regulation, and technological innovation to achieve a climate-secure future. By now, it has become abundantly clear that supporting climate-related projects around the world at the necessary scale will require vast amounts of capital. How the Russia-Ukraine war accelerated a global energy crisis For the energy industry, 2022 will be remembered as the year Russia's invasion of Ukraine accelerated a global energy crisis. The invasion, and subsequent Western sanctions, heaped new pressures on oil and gas supplies already strained from the rapid economic rebound from the pandemic. The world's top energy companies beat a hasty retreat from Russia and wrote off tens of billions of dollars in assets. European nations scrambled to make sure they could keep the lights on and their residents from freezing to death. The Role of Decarbonisation In Shaping the Russian Invasion of Ukraine While the actual motivation behind Russian invasion of Ukraine is still being debated, the global responses to climate change and the natural resources in Ukraine might act as the underlying factors that reinforce the decision-making of the Russian officials. The ongoing trend of decarbonisation and electrification of the energy and transportation sector will decrease the importance of fossil fuels in Europe and the world, weakening Russian economic and political power globally in the long term. The decline in resource rent would have significant implications for Russia, such as growing economic, social, and national insecurity. Additionally, these implications will result in a fundamental shift in the balance of power in Eurasia that will diminish Russia?s global influence. Ukraine war will make renewables top electricity source: IEA Russian fossil fuel bans are propelling the world towards solar, wind and other renewable energy sources faster than predicted, says a new report. The world will build 2,400 gigawatts (GW) of new generating capacity mainly from solar and wind energy in the next five years, equal to China?s entire current generating capacity, the IEA said in a new forecast. That is a level of investment 30 percent higher than was predicted a year ago. That rate of increase will make renewables the world?s biggest source of electricity by 2025, toppling coal, said the IEA. Germany amidst Russia-Ukraine conflict: The Dilemma of Energy, Environment and Politics As a matter of course, political correctness does not allow Germany to continue importing gas from Russia at the same amount as before. The government has become the center of criticism by both the above and below, which are the international system and its own residents, for still highly relying on Russian gas. Nevertheless, the energy tie between the two countries has been knotted for a long course of history by a massive amount of material investment and diplomatic deals. Besides, the problem with natural gas is that it is very difficult to be shipped from one country to another without specialized pipelines that require time and money to construct, and suppliers with proper geographic locations. Qatar Extends Its Natural Gas Dominance at Russia?s Expense As its influence grows, the country is poised to become a big energy supplier to Europe, which has turned away from Russia after its invasion of Ukraine. Russia?s war in Ukraine has jolted global energy markets, leaving Europe short of natural gas, raising prices for all fossil fuels and threatening a global recession. But one country has maneuvered effectively to gain economic and political advantage from the turmoil: Qatar. Long a big exporter of liquefied natural gas to Asian countries, Qatar is poised to become a critical energy source for Europe, which is pivoting away from its dependence on Russia. Global coal use set to reach fresh record As the world has grappled with the energy shocks triggered by Russia?s invasion of Ukraine, concerns over energy security have forced countries that had once pledged to quit coal to burn more of it instead. In Europe, coal consumption will rise in 2022 for the second year in a row as the reduction in gas supplies from Russia and corresponding high gas prices have made power generators rely more on coal for heat and power. The rise in global coal use comes in spite of record prices for thermal coal, the kind burnt in power stations, which hit highs in March and June. Despite Russia's winter challenge, Europe hasn't snapped yet Ten months on and the Ukraine war is distorting life in Europe in new ways every week. At one end of the continent, the sight of tankers queuing at the Bosphorus demonstrated that the Black Sea oil trade has been disrupted. At the other end, the French are asking the British to reduce the draw of electricity through the sub-sea interconnector so that both sides can manage peak daily demand in a cold snap. If Russian President Vladimir Putin is gambling that the European public will turn against their politicians? united front on Ukraine, then the sub-zero temperatures represent his best chance to achieve that goal. Regional and world news The ?Winterstans?: Energy Crisis in Central Asia On January 25, 2022, parts of the territories of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Uzbekistan experienced a massive blackout. The three countries are united by one power grid inherited from the Soviet Union ? the Unified Energy System of Central Asia. 11 months later, the first days of December also brought an energy crisis to two largest countries in Central Asia: Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. Several cities of Kazakhstan suffered accidents in thermal power plants at the beginning of the new heating season. An especially large one happened in the city of Ekibastuz, in the north of the country. Tajikistan: Families freeze while energy independence chimera remains ever distant Tajikistan first began to experience these chronic difficulties in the early 2000s, when Uzbekistan suspended deliveries of natural gas. Shortage of that fuel meant power generators were unable to work at full capacity in winter. Many a time since then, Rahmon has assured the public that Tajikistan is on the cusp of achieving ?energy independence.? He promised in 2016 that the day would come ?within three years.? In 2009, he vowed energy independence would be attained ?within four years.? The climate crisis and the environment in Central Asia ? Is there hope? The states of Central Asia ? Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan ? are facing severe environmental challenges, which are being further exacerbated by climate change. These issues are complex, intertwined, and often rooted in the countries? common Soviet legacy. The list of issues includes how to battle Central Asia?s climate crisis and its inherited ecological disasters: intense air pollution, deforestation, nuclear contamination and the ecological disaster that is the disappearing Aral Sea. According to data from the Swiss air quality technology company IQAir, Central Asian cities rank among the worst in the world in terms of air pollution. Armenia steps up adaptation to the climate crisis Armenia, a mountainous, landlocked country in the South Caucasus, is one of the most vulnerable countries in Europe and Central Asia to climate change. The nation?s average temperature has risen by more than 1.2?C since 1929, and changing climatic patterns have caused the degradation of important landscapes, including watersheds and wetlands. In the face of those challenges, Armenia has launched an ambitious effort to adapt to climate change and cut domestic greenhouse gas emissions, which fuel the climate crisis. Can Central Asian Cities Resolve Their Big, Ugly Smog Problems? Coal-powered plants and the stoves of residential homes in Central Asia's largest cities are pumping toxins into the sky, icy roads are thick with slow moving, aging vehicles, and social media chatter is full of talk about how bad the air is and where to buy the best air purifier. Air pollution, and especially dirty winter air, has long been a problem in the region, but it is now beginning to resemble a catastrophe. The political will to combat air pollution has traditionally been weak, but with public awareness of the problem growing and the health effects telling, can governments continue to ignore the obvious? EBRD supports 1GW of renewable energy generation in Uzbekistan The Bank has arranged two syndicated loans worth US$ 520 million to help construct and put into operation two wind power plants with a total installed capacity of 1GW in the Bukhara region. The financing is the EBRD?s largest renewable energy project to date across its regions. The Bank?s loan of US$ 277 million to Bash Wind Power Plant (WPP) will consist of an A loan of US$ 150 million on the EBRD?s own account and a B loan of US$ 127 million, which will be syndicated to commercial lenders. The new wind power plant will generate more than 1,650 GWh of electricity annually and help reduce annual CO2 emissions by 930,000 tonnes. Georgia, Azerbaijan, Hungary, Romania Sign Agreement on Black Sea Electricity Cable On 17 December, Prime Minister Irakli Garibashvili, Azerbaijani President Ilham Aliyev, Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orban, and Romanian Prime Minister Romania Nicolae Ciuc? signed the agreement for the development of the 1,100-kilometer-long Black Sea strategic submarine electricity cable aimed at transporting energy from Azerbaijan to the European Union through Georgia. The agreement followed the Plenary Session on Strategic Partnership Agreement for Green Energy Development and Transmission held in Bucharest, Romania. EU Invests Billions in Asia?s Green Future The EU?s ?10 bn investment in ASEAN member states will help accelerate their green transition, but as the Ukraine war and competition with China exposes vulnerabilities within both unions, their strategic partnership?s motivations are almost certainly more intricate in nature. One of the agreements promised by the EU was a ?Global Gateway? investment package of ?10 billion to ASEAN nations, intending to help member states to advance their green economies and infrastructure whilst staying on track to reach ambitious climate neutrality targets. ?Because our energy and trade cooperation will only reach its full potential if it is underpinned by the right infrastructure,? said President von der Leyen.

News of the world environment NEWSLETTER | DECEMBER 16, 2022 An Ode to Hollywood's P-22 Earlier this week, wildlife officials here in Southern California captured an aging celebrity, a 12-year-old mountain lion whom we?ve named P-22. The big cat is a much-revered figure in the land of the famous, having survived a delicate cohabitation with humans amid the coastal woodlands of the Hollywood Hills. He was captured because he has turned to predation on Chihuahuas, a sign that he is getting too old and too tired to hunt deer. This morning, I read that P-22 will not return to the wild. He is underweight, and his coat is thinning, and he has an injury to his right eye, ?likely,? the Los Angeles Times reported, ?the result of recent vehicular trauma.? He has been treated with antibiotics and will undergo a CT scan, and, depending on health assessments, will either be euthanized and held in captivity. Either way, his run as a wild thing is at an end. As an environmental journalist, I know that we should not make too much a symbol of what are called charismatic megafauna. But it is hard not to see P-22?s ignoble capture and impending death or imprisonment as symbolic of a greater diminishment. As we humans hurl through the twenty-first century, devouring wild spaces, wiping out birds and bees, parching rivers, and bleaching reefs, news of a specific loss, like that of P-22, hits hard. The key, I think, is knowing what to do with this kind of gut-punch. We must understand these moments as calls to action, to do better. We must think harder about our relationships to our wild kin, and do what work we can, wherever we can, to keep them. This is how we honor P-22. We should remember him roaming the dark hills of Griffith Park, beyond the city lights, forever free in our collective imagination, which needs all the wild it can hold. Brian Calvert Associate Editor, Earth Island Journal PS: The Journal will be taking a holiday break from December 26 through the New Year. We wish you all a happy and restorative year end.

The petitions we launch in cooperation with our partner organizations in the global South are just one small facet of our work. We not only amplify the voices of our activist partners, we support them in their work on the ground ? mapping forest territories to secure the land rights of Indigenous communities, defending gorilla habitat in the Congo Basin and protecting the Paya Nie wetlands in Indonesia. Our partners have also gone to court to return a vast area of Amazon rainforest to the stewardship of its Indigenous inhabitants, and their political work has succeeded in stopping the advance of loggers and rapacious plantation companies. DONATE NOW The challenges we face are huge, and our partners on the ground ? the courageous defenders of the rainforests ? need your support. Our list of projects is long and we have no time to lose. Rainforest Rescue relies entirely on donations from individuals like you to enable this vital work. Thank you for your generosity. As always, thanks for being involved, John Hayduska Rainforest Rescue (Rettet den Regenwald e.?V) Our voices heard Our petition delivered a clear message, and it was heard by the UN: In a one-on-one meeting, the Executive Secretary of the Convention on Biological Diversity, Elizabeth Maruma Mrema, had an open ear for our arguments and pledged to highlight the dangers of narrowly focusing on protected areas alone in the COP 15 negotiations.

Reducing greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions is the primary goal in fighting global warming. However, to achieve net zero carbon dioxide (CO2) or GHG emissions, we will need to deploy carbon dioxide removal (CDR) to counterbalance residual emissions, as laid out in the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report. https://bellona.org/news/carbon-dioxide-removal/2022-12-carbon-dioxide-removal-and-certification-what-is-it-and-why-is-it-needed -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

The Buy Nothing Project What if we didn't have to spend any money on the things we need, and could instead get them from our neighbors and build a stronger community in the process? When Liesl Clark and Rebecca Rockefeller started the Buy Nothing Project, that's what they set out to create. With hundreds of groups around the world now, the infrastructure of Buy Nothing could transform our economy into one where resources are cycled rather than wasted. Liesl & Rebecca were propelled to Buy Nothing by two motivating factors: Liesl's beach cleanups full of plastic, and Rebecca's status as a newly single mother of 2 struggling to feed her kids. They invited their neighbors to join them in simply asking each other for whatever they needed before buying, and soon it became a way of life for their entire community.

Tell the Justice Department to bring charges against Trump! Sign Now It's finally happened. The January 6th Committee has recommended four criminal charges be brought against disgraced ex-president Donald J. Trump for his role in the conspiracy to overturn the 2020 election and the incitement of the mob that attacked the Capitol on January 6th. The charges are: 1. Obstruction of an official proceeding 2. Conspiracy to defraud the United States 3. Conspiracy to make a false statement 4. Incitement of, assistance or aid and comfort to an insurrection. Tell the DOJ to prosecute Trump to the fullest extent of the law! This is a pivotal moment in American history; one where we are offered the choice to defend the rule of law in the United States and the democracy we hold so dear or let a criminal conman get away with the most egregious attempt to overthrow the government in our nation's history.

This Incredible New Bill Would Help Hold Factory Farms Accountable Sign Now It is no secret that factory farms are dangerous and toxic operations that profit off of animal suffering and poor labor practices. A new bill introduced by Senator Cory Booker could help actually hold factory farms accountable and reduce the suffering of millions of farm animals across the United States! Sign now to demand the Senate pass this historic bill to hold factory farms accountable! The Industrial Agriculture Accountability Act of 2022 would be a huge victory for animal rights activists and the farmed animals they have spent years advocating for. The bill would end line-speed increases, which are awful and dangerous for both animals and workers. It would also end self-inspection loopholes for animal slaughter and protect sick/injured animals that are kept suffering and alive for slaughter. Sign the petition now to tell the Senate: pass the Industrial Agriculture Accountability Act of 2022 now! Thank you, Jess Care2 Petitions Team P.S.

Luckily, ranked-choice voting (RCV) is a method that can help reduce political extremism and promote fairer elections! Sign the petition to urge all the U.S. states to implement RCV in all elections! This would be a major step forward for democracy, and would go a long way towards creating a more equitable, inclusive, and representative democracy. Right now, voters are often forced to choose between just 2 major party candidates who often don't fully align with the voters' values. But we should be able to prioritize the candidates we really want! Sign the petition urging each U.S. state to pass legislation to implement ranked-choice voting in all elections!

Let's Recycle Our Christmas Trees After the Holiday Season! Sign Now Did you know about the Philly Goat Project in Germantown in Philadelphia? They accept bare Christmas trees after the holidays and the goats eat them in just 20 minutes! This helps reduce waste and the uneaten trees are turned into wood chips for city trails. It's a sweet and practical way to recycle live Christmas trees. Will you commit to recycling your tree if you have one? In other cities, such as Los Angeles and Chicago, similar programs turn used trees into mulch for city parks. No matter where you live, it's important to recycle or compost your plant-based holiday decorations. Let's all do our part to keep the sustainable spirit of the Care2 community alive by pledging to recycle our trees this holiday season. Thank you, Kelsey Care2 Petitions Team P.S.
