                        The tragic culling of over 700 koalas in Budj Bim National Park in Victoria is a horrifying reminder of how our wildlife is being failed by shortsighted policies. This decision to shoot these beloved creatures from helicopters, after a bushfire ravaged their habitat, was not only a shocking act of cruelty but also a devastating loss to the ecosystem.



                        https://www.care2.com/go/z/e/A0vd./zYZq/DCXRB" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: underline; color: #0e6da8;" rel="noopener">Sign this petition to demand the Victorian government stop culling koalas and implement humane, science-based solutions to protect these populations!



                        Some of the koalas killed were mothers with joeys, leaving helpless young behind to face an uncertain future. The culling fails to address the underlying causes of koala population pressure ? namely habitat destruction from logging, fires, and inadequate wildlife management. We must push the Victorian government to adopt long-term, science-based approaches to koala conservation that focus on preserving their habitats, rescuing those in need, and ensuring a future where these iconic marsupials can thrive. https://www.care2.com/go/z/e/A0vd./zYZq/DCXRB" target="_blank" style="text-decoration: underline; color: #0e6da8;" rel="noopener">Sign now to demand that the Victorian government stop the culling and put in place real protections for koalas and their habitats.

Subject: *[Enwl-eng] This puffin colony is down to its last 3 pairs of
 adults, threatening their survival
Message-ID: <assp.0216f433fd.ADFDEEC20B474A749C9EDA81DAE50590@lewpostnew>

                       
                 
           
                        This puffin colony is on a path to go extinct within the next 15 years. Demand help now!
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                        Only Six of These Puffins Remain In a One-Bustling UK Nesting Ground. Demand Funding to Save Them!
                       
                 
           
                        Sign Now    
                 
           

                        In Dorset, UK, there's a stretch of land along the coast where puffins used to nest for at least decades. But now, the puffins' numbers are dropping so quickly, they could be gone within the next 15 years.

                        As of now, volunteers and researchers have spotted only three pairs of adult puffins. And for multiple years, there has been no sign of any babies (called "fledglings"). Two years ago, it seemed as though some parents were caring for fledglings, because they were seen bringing fish up to their carefully secluded nests. Then these deliveries suddenly stopped. Researchers concluded that tragedy had befallen the family, and that the babies must have died.

                        So far, investigations haven't revealed any clear cause of this population decline. That worries conservationists because, if they can't find a cause for this problem, then they can't alleviate it. And that means this puffin colony will go extinct.

                        According to Richard Caldow, a marine ornithologist: "It wouldn't take too much to push them over the edge. This may be the last chance saloon for them."

                        Now that the colony is down to the last six adults, they can't wait any longer before receiving help. This is an existential emergency for them! Sign the petition to demand urgent funding from the UK government to help protect and conserve the puffins of Dorset!

                                Losing Good Neighbors

                                FOR THE SAFETY of all residents and due to 
an increase in ?disturbing coyote encounters,? the animals would have to be 
trapped and removed, an email from my apartment complex announced last June. 
Some of my neighbors had been sending emails detailing alarming encounters 
with the canids. When I heard howling or yipping at night, on the other 
hand, I opened my windows and listened.


                                Access to flora and fauna was one of the 
reasons I chose this apartment, which sits on a large parcel of land next to 
a golf course and the Willamette River. Migrating geese rest on the 
neighboring rooftop, bald eagles perch in the Douglas fir trees, and, yes, 
coyotes roam the grounds. As dense human neighborhoods sprawl closer to 
wildlife, this type of human-nonhuman crossover in urban areas is becoming 
more prevalent. But this can be dangerous when we humans do nothing to 
understand the wildlife and expect animals to play by our rules.


                                Earth Island?s Project Coyote estimates that 
half a million coyotes are killed every year in the United States, but this 
could be an undercount. In states like Oregon, private landowners who deem a 
coyote on their property to be a ?nuisance animal? can trap and remove them 
at any time, without a permit or the need to report it to local agencies. 
?Remove? is a euphemism: These ?removed? animals aren?t let out somewhere 
else to frolic and live out their lives. They are killed.


                                In her latest column, Tove Danovich writes 
about how many people want to move into the so-called Wildland-Urban 
Interface, where they can live close to nature, yet they don?t want to learn 
how to live with their wild neighbors.

                                Secret Flood Histories

                                In Florida, a state with a massive number of 
homes vulnerable to flooding ? a growing risk driven by rising seas, wetter 
storms and more powerful hurricanes ? it?s nearly impossible for prospective 
buyers to identify flood-prone neighborhoods and streets. (Miami Herald)


                                Circling Toxic Waters

                                ?To walk around America?s largest Superfund 
site presents three major risks. First, no one had ever attempted the 
route.... Second, the route requires trespassing.... Third, the route 
includes several miles of bushwhacking, high-security fences, a crossing of 
the Continental Divide, and six miles of freeway walking. The attempt felt 
subversive in a way the others didn?t.? (Longreads)


                                Reclaiming Lost Words

                                This video of The Lost Words Blessing song 
created by the talented students of the Wangari Maathai School in Berlin is 
an ode to nature, art, words forgotten, and all creatures great and small 
living on the third rock from the sun. (Facebook)


                                Lawless Lands

                                When Trump first suggested carving ?Freedom 
Cities? out of federal land two years ago, his plan didn?t get much notice. 
Now, the audacious idea ? which revolves around tech-driven company towns 
exempt from most environmental, labor, and tax laws ? is gaining traction.

            It?s hard to believe ? but France is about to bring back banned 
bee-killing pesticides.

            The Senate has just passed a law that would reauthorize 
neonicotinoids ? a family of ultra-toxic pesticides banned since 2018. The 
law was pushed through under pressure from powerful agricultural lobbies and 
looks like it was written personally by Bayer?s CEO.

            Now, the law heads to the National Assembly for a final vote in 
May.

            That means there?s still time to stop it. And local groups 
across France are rising up to do just that. But they need our help to fund 
their battle against Bayer-Monsanto and their limitless cash for lobbying.

            Will you chip in now to help stop this bee-killing disaster? 
Your donation will fund urgent action in the coming weeks and sustain 
campaigns to defend the environment from toxic companies like 
Bayer-Monsanto:


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount




            Here?s the truth:

              a.. This rollback has nothing to do with protecting farmers ? 
and everything to do with protecting chemical company profits.


              b.. The science is clear: safer, effective alternatives to 
neonicotinoids exist. Biological control, agroecology, targeted treatments ? 
even for sugar beets ? have been tested and proven to work.


              c.. If passed, the law would reintroduce chemicals up to 
10,000 times more toxic to bees than DDT.
            The pesticide lobby is counting on silence. Let?s show them we?re 
paying attention. The vote is weeks away ? and what happens next depends on 
us.

            Chip in now to fuel emergency campaigning in France before the 
vote and campaigns to protect nature long after.


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


             Your donation will help power Ek? and our campaigns worldwide 
fighting for people and the planet.

            The stakes couldn?t be higher: bees and pollinators are already 
in crisis ? this law could push them over the edge. And neonicotinoids don?t 
just kill insects. They contaminate soil, water, and even our food ? 
threatening human health, especially for children.

            Scientists are clear: viable, safer alternatives exist. This 
rollback is about protecting pesticide profits, not farmers. Your support 
will help local groups reach lawmakers, challenge false claims, and show 
that people everywhere stand against this toxic law.

            France once led the world in banning neonicotinoids. Let?s make 
sure it doesn?t become the first to bring them back.


            Thanks for all that you do,
            Nabil and the Ek? team

Message-ID: <assp.02207b81cf.CBC7F624377E48B0BFC8F977AFDB7889@lewpostnew>

                        The environment doesn't need any more threats to its safety, but unfortunately, this isn't its lucky day.

                        Donald Trump just signed yet another executive order attacking the environment ? specifically, the ocean floors, where he wants to increase mining.

                        Trump's new executive order has directed the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to more quickly approve permits that allow companies to ransack seabeds for mineral extraction.

                        Mining is an incredibly disruptive and poisonous activity. It creates all sorts of pollution ? from possible leaks of fossil fuels and toxic chemicals, to artificial light pollution, to horrible noise pollution that can throw off entire species' ability to navigate their own watery homes.

                        The "sediment plumes" that mining creates can also smother and kill off sensitive ? and important ? habitats like coral reefs, which are already suffering. And, of course, the actual mining process itself can just directly come in and wipe out whole ecosystems.

                        In fact, it's so damaging that upwards of 30 countries ? and even multiple auto companies, tech companies, and trade organizations for fisheries ? are calling for a pause on seabed mining. Unfortunately, multiple other tech companies and even the U.S. military are hunger for access to more minerals like cobalt, nickel, and manganese.

                        Trump's executive order would not only hurt the Earth and the oceans, but it would also hurt all wildlife that lives there ? and humans, too. But this greedy, profit-motivated administration doesn't care. And it will keep not caring, unless it hears massive public outcry.

                        Help us protect the Earth, dolphins, sea turtles, fish, and more by loudly opposing deep-sea mining! Sign the petition to demand the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration refuse to grant any further seabed mining permits!

                        In many communities across the United States, families live in constant danger, surrounded by heavy industries that spew toxic pollutants into the air. This is not just a case of isolated environmental risk ? it is a systemic failure to protect vulnerable populations who face the cumulative effects of multiple harmful pollutants, day in and day out.



                        Sign this petition to urge the EPA to implement strict buffer zones around heavy industrial sites, protecting communities from the health risks of living too close to dangerous factories, refineries, and petrochemical plants.



                        Recent research by Johns Hopkins University highlights the grave health risks that residents near industrial areas face. These chemicals cause not only respiratory harm, but also neurological, developmental, and reproductive issues. It's time we stop pretending that it's acceptable to expose families to this toxic stew. We can no longer allow industries to place profit over the well-being of our communities. We need buffer zones to ensure that no one is forced to breathe air polluted by industries that care more about their bottom lines than the health of the people around them. Sign the petition to demand buffer zones and protect vulnerable communities from industrial pollution!

            Nature defenders in Cambodia are urgently asking for our help.

            Six brave activists were just jailed for trying to expose shady business interests driving deforestation. And the police stole ALL their equipment!

            They?re out of prison now but have barely any funds and need to buy new drones and night cameras to collect evidence of destruction deep in the forest.

            Cambodia has one of the highest deforestation rates in the world, and activists trying to expose the corrupt industries driving the destruction risk arrest, intimidation ? or worse.

            Despite the dangers, they?re not giving up. But they can?t beat murky corporations on their own.

            If all of us chip in a little, we can send them the cash they need ? and keep up our work to protect forests everywhere. Can you chip in to help?

            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            Veun Sai-Siem Pang National Park is a national treasure in Cambodia, home to the near-extinct giant ibis bird and the clouded leopard. New species are STILL being discovered in this wildlife haven! 

            Indigenous people also rely on the forest for clean water, food, and medicinal plants. But it?s fast disappearing.

            2023 was the worst deforestation year ever for the Veun Sai-Siem Pang National Park.

            Rampant illegal logging facilitated by a murky web of corrupt government officials is to blame and brave activists are working tirelessly to prove it by collecting evidence via drone and satellite imagery.

            But forest defenders are paying a high price. Time and again, environmentalists are being arrested on trumped up charges and silenced for their work. They're risking everything to save Cambodia?s forests and need all the help they can get.

            That?s where we come in. Together, we can supercharge their efforts by helping them buy the equipment they desperately need to keep exposing rogue actors illegally destroying Cambodia?s forests, build strong cases to demand robust forest protections ? and keep up our campaigns fighting for wild places everywhere.

            Can you chip in to help?

                        Birds are at their most vulnerable right now. We must protect them.
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                        Three-Quarters of Bird Species in North America Are Hurtling Towards Extinction as Populations Drop Off

                        Approximately 75% of bird species across the North American continent are dying off. This includes birds like sweet little chickadees, red-winged blackbirds, great egrets, little blue herons, peregrine falcons, and more.



                        As their population numbers plummet, it shows that we are moving closer and closer to a massive extinction event.

                        Many culprits have contributed to this problem. Climate change is disrupting their food sources and breeding grounds. Human development projects ? including clearing land for farms ? are tearing down their ecosystems. And pesticide use is poisoning them.

                        And now, it's all set to get so much worse. Donald Trump has been hell-bent on attacking the environment and tearing apart wildlife protections. As just one example, he even recently directed the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service to redefine what constitutes "harm" to endangered species ? just so that corporations can get away with more oil-drilling and logging in old-growth forests.

                        We must be doing everything we can to save North American birds ? not make the situation worse for them. Sign the petition to demand the Trump administration immediately stop its attacks on endangered species, wildlife, oceans, and the environment!


                       
                 
           
                       
                 Thank you,

                                Dear subscribers,

                                In this issue: how climate change is affecting children?s health in Tajikistan and river levels in Belarus. In the spotlight ? a stalled energy transition, mass seal deaths in the Caspian Sea, and a hydrogen sulfide release in Uzbekistan. On the global agenda ? the Trump administration?s suppression of climate reports, ?blood timber? from Colombia, and a growing crisis in the aviation industry. Plus ? a selection of current opportunities for activists, researchers, and NGOs.

                                We?re always open to hearing your thoughts, ideas, or stories ? don?t hesitate to get in touch.

                                Sincerely, 

                                The CAN EECCA Team

                                News from the EECCA Region
                                 
                             
                       
                 
                                 
                             
                       
                 
                                How climate change is stealing childhood from children in Tajikistan 
                                According to projections by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), if the average global temperature rises by 1.5?C by the year 2100, today?s children will face extreme weather events almost four times more often. If the temperature rises by 3?C, these events will occur five times more frequently, significantly affecting the lives of the younger generation. 

                                IRENA and Georgia present renewable energy transition strategy
                                A report titled Energy Transition Assessment: Georgia highlights the country's significant untapped potential in wind and solar energy. Although Georgia?s hydropower potential is estimated at 15 gigawatts (GW), only a quarter has been developed. The assessment also identified around 4 GW of wind and 4.5 GW of solar photovoltaic capacity that remains unused. 

                                Armenia?s energy transition faces major hurdles
                                Despite the government?s goals to increase the share of renewable energy, Armenia?s power grid remains unprepared for rapid expansion. Authorities have done little to encourage households to switch from fossil fuels to electric heating, slowing the country's energy transition.

                                What do snowless winters mean for Belarus? 

                                Due to a lack of snowfall, Belarusian rivers are drying up. Year after year, water levels in lakes and rivers are dropping significantly. In the Rechytsa and Loyew regions, the Dnipro River can now be crossed on foot. This winter, dams in the Brest region remained closed ? without snow, there is no spring floodwater. The only visible benefit is that floodwaters no longer inundate settlements. However, ecologically, this is a dangerous trend that could have severe consequences for everyone.

                                Uzbekistan: hydrogen sulfide release at gas field 
                                On May 5, 2025, a high-pressure gas blowout containing hydrogen sulfide occurred at Well No. 202 of the Mustaqillik-25 gas field in Surkhandarya region. Gas gushing resumed, prompting a controlled burn-off to prevent further spread. The area remains under 24/7 monitoring by the Ministry of Emergency Situations, the industrial safety agency Sanoatkontikhnazorat, and a militarized gas safety unit.

                                More dead seals found on the Caspian coast
                                According to preliminary estimates, the animals died two to three weeks ago. However, a full examination is impossible ? the carcasses are too decomposed for proper sampling. This marks the second mass seal die-off reported this year. Previously, dozens of dead seals were found washed ashore in the Mangystau region. Environmentalists are increasingly alarmed by the mammals? behavior.

                                Azerbaijan proposes Caspian?Black Sea tunnel project
                                The company ADOG and the international port of Zira have proposed the construction of an underground tunnel linking the Caspian and Black Seas. The project envisions a 10-meter diameter tunnel that would pass through Georgia or Russia. Thanks to the natural elevation difference, water could flow into the Caspian without pumps. Proponents say this could help stabilize the sea?s declining water levels, which pose increasing risks to local economies, ecosystems, and infrastructure.

                                Trump gutted two landmark environmental reports ? can researchers save them?
                                Every four years, the US government is supposed to release a report on how climate change is affecting the nation, to guide communities and companies on how to address and adapt to a warming planet. But the sixth edition of the National Climate Assessment ? already in the works for months ? was gutted earlier this week, when US President Donald Trump?s administration dismissed hundreds of scientists helping with it. Some researchers aren?t giving up, however. They are wondering whether they could publish it anyway, through independent channels. 

                                ?Blood timber?: western firms fuel conflict and ?slavery? in Colombia
                                Trade in uncertified hardwood illegally logged in Choc? rainforest and imported by US and Europe is financing paramilitaries, says Environmental Investigation Agency The Atrato River winds through the dense rainforest of Colombia?s Choc? region for nearly 400 miles (600km) before spilling into the Caribbean Sea. Some of these tropical forests are among the wettest on Earth. Their flooded lowlands and swollen rivers are so impenetrable they have acted as an evolutionary barrier, making Choc? a haven for rare and remarkable species found nowhere else on the planet.

                                Aviation industry is ?failing dramatically? on climate, insiders say
                                Professionals call for a fundamental transition including controlling flight numbers The aviation industry is ?failing dramatically? in its efforts to tackle its role in the climate crisis, according to a newly formed group of aviation professionals. They say they are torn between their passion for flying and their concern for the planet and are calling for a fundamental transition of the industry, including controlling flight numbers.

We have to act NOW to stop the world?s biggest meatpacking giant. ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?  ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? 

          




            JBS, the world?s largest meat processing company, is already wiping out precious Amazon rainforest to make space for more cows. Now it could take its forest-ravaging empire to terrifying new heights: it was just given the green light to list on the New York Stock Exchange.

            So we?re racing to launch an all-out campaign to make JBS shares too toxic to touch!

            For YEARS this corrupt monster has lied about how risky its operations are to drum up cash. If enough of us urgently chip in we?ll seize this moment with all eyes on JBS to expose the truth, making sure everyone knows that investing in JBS = investing in bulldozing the Amazon.

            Our team of researchers are ready to hit the ground running, exposing companies sourcing meat from JBS, gathering research and sharing it with investors, taking out ads blasting JBS ahead of its shareholder meeting in May, and lobbying lawmakers everywhere to win critical forest-saving protections. 

            Vladimir, when all of us give just a little it means we can take on toxic billionaire giants ? and win.

            Can you urgently chip in today to save the Amazon?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4
             
            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            Everything about JBS ? one of the worst companies on the planet ? screams risky business. It has illegally destroyed swathes of Amazon rainforest, stolen Indigenous lands, and faced corruption, bribery, and forced labour allegations. 

            If that wasn?t enough, it?s on track to break its no-deforestation pledges?again. And with the US stock market regulator allowing this climate criminal to list on the world?s largest stock exchange, the potential for JBS to supercharge its Amazon destruction beyond repair just got real.

            We have to fight back ? fast ? while the world?s attention is turned on JBS and the Amazon rainforest ahead of November?s global climate meeting in Brazil.

            If all of us chip in a little, we could seize this moment to hit JBS from every angle with smart tactics like:

              a.. Targeting investors with information to resist this destruction of the Amazon rainforest; 
              b.. Mobilizing huge public pressure on lawmakers; 
              c.. Exposing companies linked to JBS; 
            and derail its entire nightmarish plan ? then keep up the fight to defend the Amazon and other precious natural places from corporate raiders.

            A plan of this size takes massive people power, but we know that when people like us come together, we?re more than a match for billionaire companies. Can you chip in to stop the Amazon?s number one enemy?

                        Rotting piles of seaweed are suffocating Caribbean beaches, harming marine life, destroying tourism economies, and releasing dangerous methane into the air.

                        But Grenada ? a small island nation ? is flipping the script. Instead of treating sargassum seaweed as waste, they're turning it into fuel, fertilizer, and hope.

                        Each year, climate change and pollution feed massive blooms of this slimy brown algae, choking coasts around the world, from West Africa to the Yucat?n. As the seaweed rots, it releases hydrogen sulfide that damages lungs and methane that accelerates global warming. Local economies suffer. Fishermen are blocked from the water. Tourists stay away.



                        Governments spend millions clearing beaches with shovels and dump trucks, only to send the seaweed to overflowing landfills. But in Grenada, innovation is blooming instead! 



                        The island is investing in local companies that harvest sargassum before it hits the shore ? and transform it into clean energy and natural fertilizer. One company, SarGas, uses bacteria to convert seaweed into biogas that fuels bakeries and could soon power homes ? cutting dependence on diesel and slashing climate emissions.

                        Seaweed alone won't save the planet. But what Grenada is showing us is revolutionary: that the very forces of ecological crisis can be reimagined as tools of healing and survival ? if we choose to act.

                        Sign now to urge governments of coastal nations around the world to support and replicate Grenada's groundbreaking efforts! They must prioritize using creative, local, renewable energy solutions to fight climate change!

The AIESS Consortium on Regenerativeness is organizing the fourth International Conference on Regenerative Ecosystems from 2-6 December 2025 in Bhubaneswar, India. The conference is about the science and practice of regenerativeness in different sciences/disciplines, systems, and ecosystems. As you know, the science of regenerativeness and its practice are critical in the growing degeneration and polycrisis the world faces today. The conference has been designed to facilitate deliberation on the challenges of our beliefs in duality and certainty that have been shaping our built-in systems design in the degenerating anthropocene. AIESS Consortium invites you to this groundbreaking conference on regenerativeness.

Faculty Members and Doctoral Scholars from various disciplines can contribute theoretical, empirical, case, and policy papers adopting systems science and transdisciplinary methodologies.

                        Mega poultry factory farms Bachoco and Cr?o are 
illegally dumping toxic waste in Maya communities in Yucat?n. They?re 
cutting and burning down the jungle, killing bees, poisoning water sources, 
and endangering livelihoods.

                        The Mexican authority in charge of protecting the 
environment - Profepa - can take immediate action to force the megafarms to 
clean up their mess, and restore the affected areas!

                        Tell Profepa to crack down on poultry farm pollution

                         Sign the petition


            Mega poultry farms Bachoco and Cr?o are slashing sections of the 
Yucat?n jungle to clear space for mountains of toxic waste. The greedy 
poultry farms are polluting bee hives and cornfields by using pesticides to 
cover up the proliferation of flies and other insects.

            Communities have found their water polluted. Everything that 
spills over the surface - chicken feces- runs off into the freshwater wells 
and cenotes. Cenotes are lifelines and sacred sources of water for the Maya 
communities in Mexico.

            But if we can get the Mexican environmental authority - 
Profepa - to enforce the law, we can stop millions of tonnes of toxic waste 
clogging up the drinking water of Yucat?n, save vital bee populations, 
protect Maya communities, and prevent more of the jungle from being set on 
fire.

            Tell Profepa to crack down on poultry farm pollution and make 
Bachoco and Cr?o clean up their mess.

            The communities of Halach? and Kinchil are part of the Yucat?n 
Peninsula, one of Mexico's most vital ecosystems. It is home to majestic 
jaguars, pumas, and ocelots, as well as a unique and beautiful system of 
caves (?Cenotes?) found nowhere else in the world.

            But for Bachoco and Cr?o, it's just another dumping ground. Over 
100 tonnes of excrement have been dumped in one location!

            Last year, Profepa ordered the closure of both companies' 
dumping places. But there is a track record of Bachoco moving their toxic 
waste from one closed place to another. As for Crio, they are operating 
without permits. The Mexican authority in charge of protecting the 
environment - Profepa - has the power to sanction the megafarms, order them 
to clean up their mess and rehabilitate the area.

            We must act now before it is too late. Together we can call on 
the authorities, sign the petition:

            Tell the Mexican authority Profepa to crack down on poultry farm 
pollution and make Bachoco and Cr?o clean up their mess.

            We know Profepa can do it. Last year, the entity fined 26 
industrial pig operations in the Yucat?n Peninsula for violating 
environmental laws. They can do it again!

            Brazil?s Pantanal is an environmental wonderland home to 
fascinating species like giant otters, giant armadillos, and the densest 
population of jaguars on the planet.

            But climate change and tourism are putting the world?s largest 
wetland in serious peril: with the land rapidly drying, record-setting fires 
have just killed countless animals, with some estimates in the millions.

            Local groups are sounding the alarm and asking for help 
purchasing and protecting forever an enormous tract of 326,179 acres that 
will prevent exploitation and save animals and communities from future 
disasters.

            So we?re partnering with Rainforest Trust to help make it 
happen. Together we?ve purchased and protected rainforest from Indonesia to 
Colombia ? and now we can do it again. Our collective donation to the 
project will be matched 4x, quadrupling our impact ? can you help protect 
the Pantanal, and power Ek?'s work to protect the planet from corporate 
power?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            The Pantanal isn?t as famous as the Amazon but it has become the 
second most popular tourist destination in South America after the 
Galapagos. That pressure, and the desire to install more farmland, has 
driven deforestation and made it increasingly hard to conserve large 
wilderness areas that could keep the ecosystem intact.

            Add climate change to the mix and the Pantanal?s survival is at 
stake. Just look at this year?s fires:





            Or what it does to local wildlife:





            The new Taquari Wetlands State Park would significantly expand 
protection for a critical wildlife corridor, allowing animals to safely 
travel away from the most touristed areas of the Pantanal. And support for a 
new local firefighting team could save literally millions of animals from 
future climate-change-driven fires.

            With your help, we can support Rainforest Trust and local 
partners like On?afri to make this a reality, as well as continue our 
campaigning to protect biodiversity worldwide, including in the Amazon. We 
can help buy and protect a critical part of the world?s largest wetland ? 
our collective donation to the project will be matched 4:1, quadrupling our 
impact. Will you join us?

            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount

            Your donation will help power Ek? and our campaigns worldwide 
fighting for people and the planet.


            Thanks for all that you do,
            Danny and the Ek? team

            Vladimir,

            Pesticide giants use toxic ?forever chemicals? in their products ? and this poison is being sprayed ALL over our food!

            These chemicals are terrifying because once they?re in our bodies, they never break down, causing cancer, infertility, birth defects, and more.

            And it?s only getting worse. In the EU, the amount of fruit and vegetables polluted by these chemicals (called PFAS) TRIPLED in just ten years.

            But right now we have a chance to push for a ban on the use of PFAS pesticides in the EU.

            Our partners are gearing up to test hundreds of vegetables in stores across Europe to expose this chemical scandal. But they?re asking for help so they can get started right away. With all of us chipping in, we could fund these important tests, then plaster the results in the media ahead of a major EU meeting in May ? and finally force officials to act!

            Vladimir, Trump is trying to dismantle crucial protections against these poisons so it?s more important than ever that we ramp up pressure on lawmakers everywhere to fight back against toxic chemicals.

            Can you chip in to help?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4
             
            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) are used in all kinds of products we use every day?from raincoats to frying pans?because they help make things water, stain, and grease-resistant. But that?s not all.

            Pesticide giants are now using PFAS in their formulations, and as a result, fruit and vegetables across Europe are increasingly contaminated with toxic pesticide residues.

            Delicious vegetables like cucumbers, peppers, and potatoes are among the most contaminated. And many of them are believed to contain three different PFAS pesticides in a single sample.

            It's a public health nightmare because PFAS are extremely toxic even at low levels. Yet our governments have STILL failed to ban their use in pesticides that drench our crops every day.

            Now we can change that.

            Our friends at Pesticide Action Network Europe are ready to spring into action, testing 300 fruits and vegetables sold in shops around Europe for traces of PFAS. With all of us chipping in, we could help them start these tests right away, then expose this scandal ahead of a major EU meeting to finally FORCE our governments to take action. Then, we?ll keep going to protect everyone everywhere from toxic chemicals.

            All we need to do is raise the funds to make it happen. Can you chip in to help?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4
             
            I'll donate $5

An exciting RethinkX announcement...
            Newsletter / May 2025

            Transforming Insights to Action ? RethinkX spins out NavigateX 

              



            We are excited to announce the formation of NavigateX.


            "After years of groundbreaking research, RethinkX is spinning out NavigateX to directly help organizations implement our insights and confidently navigate the disruptive transformations taking place in energy, transportation, food, and labor."



            - Tony Seba, James Arbib, Richard Gill and Adam Dorr
           
            RethinkX has been at the forefront of analyzing, understanding and explaining the impacts of profound transformations that are driven by technological disruptions.



            Our research has helped policymakers, investors, and business and civic leaders around the world understand how these disruptions are reshaping key sectors of the global economy. We have helped change how these key decision-makers, as well as the general public, view the future of energy, transportation, food, and labor.



            Over the years, many companies, NGOs, and governments have asked us for direct help implementing our research in their specific context. For instance, developing and implementing a Stellar Energy infrastructure in a specific region. We have developed technology, processes and skills that we believe can be used by organizations focused on the implementation of our ideas. However, strategically, now more than ever, we wish to continue our relentless focus on developing the science of disruption, change, and transformation to help guide humanity to a Stellar World.



            We understand the global need for organizational implementation of our work and we believe it is important that the knowledge we have created be shared for the benefit of humanity. As such, we are excited to spin out a team of Rethinkers to start a company called NavigateX. A team that shares our values and is passionate about helping build Stellar nurseries.  



            The aim of NavigateX is to help bridge the gap between our insights, understanding of technology driven disruptions, and taking strategic action to thrive and build a more resilient future for organizations, governments, businesses and investors.


            In particular NavigateX will help organizations, governments, businesses, investors, and other trailblazers by;

              a.. charting their journey from whatever their starting point is today toward a better, ?Stellar? future. 

              b.. helping them understand, and operationalize, RethinkX?s foundational research for their specific context and requirements.

              c.. providing strategic advisory services, AI and software modeling tools and applied research services, to empower leaders to make the best-informed strategic decisions.

            Richard Gill will transition from his role as CEO of RethinkX, to CEO of NavigateX.


            RethinkX will continue its core mission of producing impartial, independent research on global technology disruptions and building a deep understanding of the science of change, disruption and transformation at all levels. This includes expanding our research purview to cover new sectors and identify emerging technologies, ensuring that we remain at the cutting edge of this critical field.

            Adam Dorr, Director of Research, will continue to lead research at RethinkX with the full support of co-founders James Arbib and Tony Seba. 


            While both RethinkX and NavigateX each have a distinct focus and audience, we are united by a common goal: to accelerate humanity?s safe and stable transformation to a Stellar World. 



            NavigateX has exciting opportunities ahead of them and we look forward to their contributions to humanity.   


           

              

                  Explore NavigateX  
           


                 
           



            "NavigateX is about identifying the real, step-by-step actions to be taken in order to go from RethinkX?s insights about the present and plot the course to a much better future. We will equip organizations, governments, investors and others with the tools and guidance they need to not just understand disruption, but to thrive in the face of it."



            Richard Gill, CEO of NavigateX

                        The BBC is suppressing a powerful Gaza documentary that could help end the horror. 

                        Tell the BBC: stop delaying Gaza: Medics Under Fire ? broadcast it now!

                         Sign the petition 
                       
                 
            The BBC is suppressing a documentary about the plight of doctors in Gaza, saying the delay is linked to an internal review of a different film by a different producer. It makes no sense.

            The UK government still supports Netanyahu?s murderous regime ? that?s why the BBC bosses won?t show the film. But airing Gaza: Medics Under Fire could help persuade MPs to bring an end to the horror. 

            The documentary exposes the unbearable realities of life for Palestinians in Gaza and the brave medical professionals trying against all odds to save their lives.

            The only thing blocking the broadcast now is fear.

            Tell the BBC: stop delaying the documentary about Gaza doctors ? broadcast it now! 

            Last September, the UK government suspended just 30 out of around 350 arms export licenses to Israel, and Israel?s F35 jets are still bombing with abandon today ? liquidating the Gaza ghetto, attacking neighbouring countries, and wearing through an endless supply of parts from countries including the UK.

            We urgently need a full arms embargo, and while Gaza: Medics Under Fire isn?t about the arms trade, it could have a huge impact on London, if the BBC broadcasts it. 

            The documentary is produced by a respected former editor of Channel 4 News. It was supposed to be broadcast in early 2025, but the BBC won?t show it, and says it?ll only broadcast the film ?as soon as possible?, citing an internal review about a different Gaza documentary made by different producers.

            There?s no reason to suppress this film because of issues about another film by someone else.

            Tell the BBC: Broadcast ?Gaza: Medics Under Fire? now! 

            The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) says Gaza is facing ?extreme risk of famine? with no food remaining in markets and aid distribution centres. Now, more than ever, the BBC has to rise up to its mandate as a public service broadcaster. Let?s make them do it.

                                In the region ? $9 billion in environmental damage in Ukraine due to the war, climate risks for Dilijan in Armenia, mass deforestation in Azerbaijan, waste management discussions in Belarus, energy efficiency legislation and solar panels in Moldova, radioactive waste in Kazakhstan, and a mining tragedy in Tajikistan. On the global agenda ? bananas under threat, the dairy industry turning a blind eye to methane, and men contributing more to climate pressure due to meat consumption and car use. Plus ? a selection of current opportunities for activists, researchers, and NGOs.

                                We?re always open to hearing your thoughts, ideas, or stories ? don?t hesitate to get in touch.

                                Sincerely,

                                Ukraine: Environmental damage from attacks on military facilities estimated at UAH 367 billion (about $9 billion)
                                Colonel Yuriy Sytnyk, head of the Environmental Safety Department of Ukraine?s Ministry of Defense, stated that Russian aggression has led to massive environmental contamination: the soil and surrounding environment are polluted with construction debris, toxic substances, oil products, metals, and explosive materials. In addition, thousands of hectares of forest have burned.

                                Central Asian countries to discuss climate change in Ashgabat
                                From May 13?15, Ashgabat (Turkmenistan) will host the 7th Central Asia Climate Change Conference (CACCC-2025). The event is organized by the Regional Environmental Centre for Central Asia (CAREC) together with the Government of Turkmenistan and supported by the World Bank, the Central Asia Water and Energy Program (CAWEP), the RESILAND Tajikistan project, and GIZ.

                                Azerbaijan: Why fines don?t stop deforestation

                                In recent years, Azerbaijan has faced a serious environmental challenge: large-scale tree felling by housing cooperatives. This reflects the destructive impact of unchecked urbanization. The fate of felled trees often remains unknown, and the Ministry of Ecology mainly issues fines instead of addressing the issue systemically.

                                Belarus: Waste management strategy under discussion
                                A new national strategy aims to ensure that by 2040 at least 90% of waste is reused or recycled, maintaining carbon neutrality during incineration (through either zero emissions or compensation mechanisms).

                                Kazakhstan: Pollution, nuclear waste, and an uncertain future in East Kazakhstan
                                Residents of East Kazakhstan region have for years complained about polluted air and water, but the situation persists. The challenge is exacerbated by the fact that major polluting enterprises are also key employers, making relocation or shutdowns politically difficult.

                                Armenia: Dilijan faces growing climate risks
                                According to Albert Aroyan, head of the NGO EcoPolitics, the Dilijan municipality is increasingly vulnerable to heavy rainfall, hail, floods, and forest fires. Dilijan is surrounded by a national park, making biodiversity and wildlife protection a serious concern. These threats endanger both the environment and local livelihoods.

                                Moldova: Parliament backs energy efficiency legislation
                                The Moldovan Parliament passed the first reading of amendments to the Law on Energy Efficiency. The goal is to ease the implementation of energy efficiency projects and improve the legal framework for Moldova?s energy transition. Notably, the bill removes the obligation for heat energy providers to participate in energy-saving measures, helping maintain affordable tariffs for consumers.

                                Moldova: Solar panels help cut utility bills in C?u?eni
                                Photovoltaic panels installed by the mayor?s office in Pervomaisk will power water pumps serving over 900 residents. The panels were funded by the European Village program and include smart bi-directional meters. This enables the municipality to use solar energy during the day and sell excess energy to the grid, while buying cheaper electricity at night.

                                Ukraine and the U.S. sign new fossil fuel-related agreements
                                Ukraine signed two commercial agreements with the U.S. International Development Finance Corporation (DFC) to expand the previously ratified bilateral investment fund, with a 50/50 ownership split.

                                Kyrgyzstan to regulate import of air conditioners and refrigerants
                                Deputy Minister of Natural Resources and Ecology Mirsav Amanqulov announced that rising living standards have increased demand for air conditioners that use hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), putting strain on the power grid and harming the environment.

                                Car use and meat consumption drive emissions gender gap, research suggests
                                The French study of 15,000 people shows men emit 26% more pollution due to eating red meat and driving more. Cars and meat are major factors driving a gender gap in greenhouse gas emissions, new research suggests. Men emit 26% more planet-heating pollution than women from transport and food, according to a preprint study of 15,000 people in France. The gap shrinks to 18% after controlling for socioeconomic factors such as income and education. Eating red meat and driving cars explain almost all of the 6.5-9.5% difference in pollution that remains after also accounting for men eating more calories and travelling longer distances, the researchers said. They found no gender gap from flying.

                                Climate crisis threatens the banana, the world?s most popular fruit, research shows
                                Fourth most important food crop in peril as Latin America and Caribbean suffer from slow-onset climate disaster. The climate crisis is threatening the future of the world?s most popular fruit, as almost two-thirds of banana-growing areas in Latin America and the Caribbean may no longer be suitable for growing the fruit by 2080, new research has found.

                                Rising temperatures, extreme weather and climate-related pests are pummeling banana-growing countries such as Guatemala, Costa Rica and Colombia, reducing yields and devastating rural communities across the region, according to Christian Aid?s new report, Going Bananas: How Climate Change Threatens the World?s Favourite Fruit. Bananas are the world?s most consumed fruit ? and the fourth most important food crop globally, after wheat, rice and maize. About 80% of bananas grown globally are for local consumption, and more than 400 million people rely on the fruit for 15% to 27% of their daily calories.

                                Dairy companies ?turning blind eye? to global methane emissions, report suggests
                                Assessment of leading dairy and coffee shop chains reveals failure to set out methane reduction targets. Big dairy companies are ?turning a blind eye? to climate-damaging methane emissions, an assessment of the industry?s performance has found.

                                Animal agriculture accounts for 32% of global emissions of methane, a greenhouse gas about 80 times more potent than carbon dioxide over a 20-year period, with the breeding of cattle for milk and meat a key driver. Methane has been assessed as responsible for nearly half the total global temperature rise since 1750. But since it is short-lived in the atmosphere compared with carbon dioxide, cuts to emissions have been identified as an urgent move in tackling climate breakdown.

Subject: *[Enwl-eng] Trump's Extinction Plan
Message-ID: <assp.0230480910.697C00DDFB844B7D851182A1711163EF@lewpostnew>


          
                        Trump is gutting the Endangered Species Act.

                        If this goes through, oil, gas, and logging giants could wipe out entire ecosystems?and endangered animals could vanish forever.

                        Tell U.S. leaders: Stop Trump?s extinction plan. 

                         Sign the petition 
                       
                 
            Trump is launching a brutal attack on endangered animals?gutting one of the world?s strongest wildlife laws to clear the path for corporate destruction.

            His proposed rule would rewrite the Endangered Species Act so destroying habitats no longer counts as harm, opening the floodgates for developers to bulldoze even the most fragile places 

            This change could accelerate extinction for countless species. 

            But if we act now, we have a chance to stop it. The new rule is open for public comment, and if enough of us speak out, we can create a political firestorm that forces decision-makers to back down.

            Sign the petition: Stop Trump?s attack on endangered species

            The Endangered Species Act is a lifeline that has saved 99% of animals under its care. It brought iconic animals like the bald eagle, grizzly bears, and the humpback whale back from the brink.

            But Trump?s latest move would gut its core protections?erasing 50 years of progress with a single stroke. Under the new rule, loggers, developers, and energy companies could destroy vital habitat without consequence, as long as they claim they didn?t intend to harm the animals living there. 

            It?s a gift to polluters, and a death sentence for endangered species.  

            And this attack doesn?t stop at U.S. borders?it sets a dangerous global precedent. If Trump dismantles one of the world?s strongest wildlife laws, it gives cover to governments and corporations everywhere to do the same. 

            The good news: momentum is already building. Democratic leaders like Senator Cory Booker are speaking out, and advocates are mobilizing. Now, during the public comment period, we need to make as much noise as possible. If enough of us raise our voices?and get more political leaders to join in?the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service will have no choice but to hold the line and refuse to bend to Trump?s extinction agenda. Let?s flood them with public pressure and demand they protect endangered animals and the wild places they call home.

            Add your name now to stop Trump?s extinction plan

            This is what our movement is made for. For years, the Ek? community fought to win the EU ban on bee-killing pesticides, and when the pesticide industry tried to overturn it, we held the line. Now let?s do it again and block the dismantling of the Endangered Species Act.


             Sign the petition 
            Thanks for all that you do, 
            Deborah and the team at Ek?

                        The environment doesn't need any more threats to its safety, but unfortunately, this isn't its lucky day.

                        Donald Trump just signed yet another executive order attacking the environment ? specifically, the ocean floors, where he wants to increase mining.

                        Trump's new executive order has directed the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) to more quickly approve permits that allow companies to ransack seabeds for mineral extraction.

                        Mining is an incredibly disruptive and poisonous activity. It creates all sorts of pollution ? from possible leaks of fossil fuels and toxic chemicals, to artificial light pollution, to horrible noise pollution that can throw off entire species' ability to navigate their own watery homes.

                        The "sediment plumes" that mining creates can also smother and kill off sensitive ? and important ? habitats like coral reefs, which are already suffering. And, of course, the actual mining process itself can just directly come in and wipe out whole ecosystems.

                        In fact, it's so damaging that upwards of 30 countries ? and even multiple auto companies, tech companies, and trade organizations for fisheries ? are calling for a pause on seabed mining. Unfortunately, multiple other tech companies and even the U.S. military are hunger for access to more minerals like cobalt, nickel, and manganese.

                        Trump's executive order would not only hurt the Earth and the oceans, but it would also hurt all wildlife that lives there ? and humans, too. But this greedy, profit-motivated administration doesn't care. And it will keep not caring, unless it hears massive public outcry.

                        Help us protect the Earth, dolphins, sea turtles, fish, and more by loudly opposing deep-sea mining! Sign the petition to demand the National Oceanic Atmospheric Administration refuse to grant any further seabed mining permits!

Message-ID: <assp.02318dd79d.765799A11A2543419662BB54C0437FBC@lewpostnew>


          
                        Barclays is bankrolling one of the most corrupt companies in the world. Authorities are investigating coal giant Adani for fraud and bribery? but still, Barclays keeps the money flowing.

                        It's time regulators take tough action against the banks propping up this corrupt climate-wrecking company. 

                        Tell French and UK regulators to investigate Barclays.



                         Sign the petition 
                       
                 


            Adani, the world's largest private coal developer, thinks it is invincible. Fraud, deception, bribery, Indigenous rights abuses? but still, the world's biggest banks finance this corrupt company. 

            Now, pressure is growing on regulators to investigate banks like Barclays for funding Adani despite knowing that the company committed fraud.

            Financial regulators aren't used to the public spotlight. If tens of thousands of us demand they take swift action against these banks, we can force them to investigate and stop the flow of funds propping up dirty coal giant Adani. 

            Tell French regulator AMF and UK regulator FCA to take action against Barclays and other banks propping up this corrupt, climate-wrecking company. 

            The US Securities and Exchange Commission and Justice Department are already investigating Adani for bribery, fraud, and deception, and Geneva?s Public Prosecutor is digging into allegations of money laundering and forgery.

            Yet despite mounting evidence of Adani?s crimes, French and British banks like Soci?t? G?n?rale, Standard Chartered, and Barclays have arranged million-dollar bonds that have helped Adani mine, handle, and burn record volumes of coal and become the number one driver of the climate crisis. 

            It?s why it?s time to tell French regulator AMF and British regulator FCA to take action against banks propping up this corrupt, climate-wrecking company.

            People power has pushed Adani back for decades. The Ek? community has stopped Adani from digging the Carmichael coal mine in Australia. We forced Adani to cancel its plans for a $1.2 billion bond sale in 2024 ? a major financial setback! We also stopped Scottish investor Abrdn from investing in Adani bonds and drove a notable reduction in financial support for Adani. It?s time to hold accountable those bankrolling Adani again. 

            Tell French regulator AMF and UK regulator FCA to take action against Barclays and other banks propping up this corrupt, climate-wrecking company. 


             Sign the petition 
            Thanks for all that you do, 
            Apekshita, Leyla, Vicky and the team at Ek?

                                Conservation at Any Cost?


                                LAST SPRING, Thokozani Kunene, 25, was out walking with his father near a private game reserve near eastern Eswatini?s Big Bend, an area known for its lush forests teeming with wildlife. His father says they were taking an afternoon stroll to collect firewood when they were confronted by rangers patrolling the Mkhaya Game Reserve. Kunene was shot and killed. The rangers found a firearm in his possession after shooting him and allege that he was there poaching, though his family disputes their claims.


                                Kunene is one of many Emaswati who have been killed in recent years by park rangers. While exact numbers aren?t available, the Ministry of Tourism and Environmental Affairs estimates that several dozen suspected poachers are slain each year.


                                Behind each death lies a tragic truth: The people killed were never afforded the chance to defend themselves, never given the benefit of a fair trial. They were killed as suspected poachers, and the rangers who killed them were shielded by a decades? old law: the 1991 Game Amendment Act.


                                ?This is a devastating trend that has left families broken and communities living in fear,? says Chief Mvimbi Matse of Mambane in the Matsanjeni constituency, in the Lubombo region of Eswatini. Matse says that 17 people in his chiefdom were killed by rangers between October of 2023 and October of 2024. ?We must find a way to ensure that conservation efforts do not come at the expense of human lives.?


                                Journalist Nokukhanya Musi-Aimienoho reports on the high human cost of Eswatini?s war on poaching, and the activists pushing for change.

                                ?Just as a charismatic person can get away with a lot until the veneer cracks, floristry has been cruising on its good looks and charm,? Adrienne Mason writes in this piece about the florists taking on companies that dominate the cut flower industry. ?The reality is that cut flowers can come with hefty costs that are ultimately borne by the environment and the people who grow and handle them.?

                                A new thread of the environment movement is taking off, easily identifiable by the hand-stitched banners, sewing kits, and torn garments carried by its members. Yes, that?s right ? street stichers are setting up chairs in public places around the world to reclaim the art of mending and draw attention to the climate costs of fast fashion.

                                Once upon a time, an Ontario couple adopted a pig named Esther, who sat on love seats and wore tutus, and who they were told wouldn?t grow past 70 pounds. When she grew into a 600-pound-sow, her parents moved to the countryside and started for a 50-acre animal sanctuary ? but they didn?t get the fairytale ending they had hoped for.

Message-ID: <assp.0234bffac8.A40B5A2101104285A26920F2094363C4@evol.sp.ru>




                        We cannot afford to be complacent.









                        South Africa Must Help Rhinos From Rampant Poaching



                             Sign Now




                        The ongoing crisis facing South Africa's rhinos 
cannot be ignored. In the first three months of 2025 alone, 103 rhinos were 
killed, highlighting the threat posed by sophisticated poaching groups that 
exploit weaknesses in protection and enforcement. Rhinos are an iconic 
species. Their continued survival is under grave threat ? especially for 
critically endangered species like the Javan, Sumatran, and Black rhinos.



                        Sign this petition to demand that the South African 
government put more resources toward cracking down on poaching syndicates 
and strengthening wildlife protection laws.



                        While there has been a decrease in poaching in 
KwaZulu-Natal, the crisis has only shifted to other areas, with South 
African National Parks seeing a shocking increase in rhino killings ? 65 
rhinos in just the first quarter of 2025. Local wildlife agencies and 
non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are working tirelessly on the 
frontlines, but they cannot do it alone. Sign this petition today and demand 
stronger protections for rhinos in South Africa!




                 Thank you,

                        Jess

                        Corporations must take responsibility for the 
clothing waste they've created.









                        Manufacturers Sold Us Mountains of Synthetic 
Clothing That Can't Be Composted or Recycled. Demand They Take 
Accountability!

                        End-of-life clothing. It's those shirts or leggings 
that are damaged or stained. They can't be donated. No one wants them. 
There's no clear ethical or sustainable option. So what do we do with these 
items? It's a recurring question, and so far, there haven't been any good 
choices.

                        The problem has been getting worse over time. The 
fast-fashion industry pumps out approximately 100 billion clothing items 
every year ? a number that keeps climbing. It gets even worse when we 
consider what these clothes are made of. Fast-fashion garments rely 
predominantly on fossil fuels to create their clothing, prioritizing 
man-made synthetic fabrics like polyester and nylon. At this point, experts 
estimate that 70% of clothing is made with synthetics.



                        There's no clear way to recycle or reuse polyester 
and nylon clothing. It can't be composted. It's difficult to turn into rags 
for cleaning because it's non-absorbent. And when these items are in 
less-than-perfect conditions, thrift stores and charity shops don't want 
them.

                        As a result, most of these worn-out clothes are 
either incinerated ? which is as bad for air pollution as coal-burning ? or 
sent off to giant landfills in the Global South.

                        That's people are joining the #TakeItBack movement 
in the UK, forcing corporations to come face-to-face with the mess they've 
made. Customers are mailing their used synthetic garments back to the shops 
that sold the items and asking: "What's your plan to deal with all this 
waste you created?"

                        Luckily, the EU is set to act on this crisis. It's 
preparing to implement something called "Extended Producer Responsibility" 
(EPR) within the next few years, requiring producers to take accountability 
for their waste. This will put the burden back where it belongs ? with the 
producers who created these items to begin with.



                        The UK must follow the EU's lead and mandate EPR as 
well! Sign the petition now!







                 Thank you,

                        Celeste

                        Care2 Petitions Team



                        P.S. Demand that the UK implement mandatory Extended 
Producer Responsibility for clothing manufacturers! They sold us endless 
mountains of non-recyclable, synthetic clothes. Now they need to take 
ownership for fixing this mess. Sign the petition.

Subject: *[Enwl-eng] Illegal monkey trade
Message-ID: <assp.02368c65b3.FC4CABD86EBA45C9A39452173137DDC8@evol.sp.ru>

wild macaques are being trafficked so big medical labs can cash in the 
profit.


                        Endangered monkeys are being trafficked to the US 
for biomedical research in a massive monkey-laundering scheme, according to 
a shocking new report.

                        Let?s call on one of the biggest buyers to clean up 
its supply chain and save the wild long-tailed macaques:

                         Sign the petition


            Wild, highly social monkeys are being illegally caught, shoved 
into cages and exported to the U.S. for animal testing ? and one of the 
biggest medical labs is profiting off of them. Let?s make it stop!

            A breaking new investigation shows how long-tailed macaques in 
South-East Asia are being caught in the wild, then falsely labeled as 
captive-bred. It?s a massive monkey-laundering scheme! This does not only 
threaten the survival of the species in the wild, it also poses a public 
health risk: wild macaques can spread deadly diseases.

            One of the biggest US medical labs, Charles River, says it only 
imports captive-bred monkeys ? but now their link to monkey trafficking is 
being scrutinized. Let's pile on the pressure, force them to dump the 
traffickers ? and save these wild macaques!

            Charles River Laboratories: No more monkey business ? end the 
illegal trade!

            Long-tailed macaques are the most traded, the most culled, and 
the most persecuted primate species in the world. Despite being endangered 
in the wild, they are bred in massive facilities across South-East Asia for 
export to biomedical labs in the US.

            The latest investigation by Sandy River Research shows how the 
numbers of exported monkeys just don?t add up with the capacity of breeding 
facilities in Cambodia and Vietnam, suggesting that these businesses are 
catching monkeys in the wild, laundering them and then selling them as 
captive-bred.

            Charles River Laboratories, one of the biggest buyers in the US, 
says that it puts all monkey suppliers through ?enhanced due diligence, 
documentation, monitoring and auditing?. But it doesn?t even list all the 
breeding farms from which it buys long-tailed macaques ? so how can they 
claim that?

            To make it worse, the lab was involved in a huge tuberculosis 
outbreak among imported macaques in 2023, and was subpoenaed by the U.S. 
Department of Justice in relation to its Cambodian supply chain.

            In other words: This monkey business is not only endangering an 
entire species, but posing a massive public health risk. But with this 
latest investigation, they?ve come under scrutiny ? let?s use this momentum 
and make Charles River cut wild monkeys from its supply chain, and end the 
illegal monkey trade for good.

            Charles River Laboratories: No more monkey business ? clean up 
your long-tailed macaque supply chains!


             Sign the petition
            Thanks for all that you do,
            Rosa, Danny, and the team at Ek?

                                Dear subscribers,

                                the Caspian Sea is shrinking, reservoirs are 
drying up, glaciers are melting ? water is becoming a strategic resource 
across the region. Amid rising tariffs and climate vulnerability, Armenia 
has launched its largest solar power plant, while Moldova and Kyrgyzstan 
receive support for green projects. Governance remains a weak point: toxic 
waste, lack of transparency, and disputes over resources persist. Globally, 
sea levels are rising, food systems are at risk, and undisclosed chemicals 
are being pumped into the ground. Still, there are signs of resilience ? 
nature-based solutions in cities and new opportunities for activists, 
featured at the end of this issue.

                                We?re always open to hearing your thoughts, 
ideas, or stories ? don?t hesitate to get in touch.

                                Sincerely,

                                News from the EECCA Region








                                Cemetery of marine life: The Caspian Sea 
ecosystem is collapsing under the pressure of global warming and pollution
                                In late April, carcasses of endangered seals 
were once again found on the shores of the Caspian Sea ? marking the second 
mass die-off in the past six months. Scientists still disagree on the exact 
causes: trawl fishing, pollution, disease, or the sea?s shrinking due to 
climate change. Since 2020, the Caspian?s water level has been dropping by 
about 30 centimeters each year. This impacts not only oil transport and 
navigation but also puts fish stocks on the verge of collapse. 
Environmentalists are sounding the alarm over an impending ecological 
catastrophe. The Insider reports on what lies ahead for the Caspian and how 
environmental activists are pressuring regional authorities to take real 
action.


                                Kazakhstan: Aktobe?s main reservoir is 
rapidly drying up
                                The largest reservoir in the Aktobe region 
is shrinking fast. Local hunting and fishing communities believe sand mining 
operations are contributing to the problem. In addition, residents report 
that the Aktobe reservoir is being polluted by industrial waste.


                                Tajikistan: 1,700 delegates to gather in 
Dushanbe to discuss glacier preservation
                                Tajikistan is preparing to host a high-level 
international conference on glacier preservation, set to open in Dushanbe 
next Thursday. Delegates from 55 countries and dozens of organizations ? a 
total of 1,700 participants ? have confirmed their attendance. The 
conference is part of the UN-declared International Year of Glaciers? 
Preservation, an initiative originally proposed by President Emomali Rahmon 
nearly three years ago.


                                Adaptive cities: how Kyiv is using the power 
of nature (ua)
                                War hasn?t paused Ukraine?s climate 
challenges: heatwaves, heavy rains, flooding, air pollution, and noise 
continue to make daily life difficult. Yet cities like Kyiv are finding ways 
to adapt ? through nature-based solutions. These are simple, effective 
methods that harness natural processes to address environmental problems. 
Kyiv is already implementing such initiatives, and its experience could 
serve as a model for other Ukrainian cities. This article explains how it 
works ? and why it matters.


                                Armenia launches its largest solar power 
plant, Masrik-1 (en)
                                In just 11 months, nearly 115,000 panels 
were installed over 130 hectares. The 62 MW Masrik-1 plant will generate 
clean energy for more than 20,000 households per year and reduce CO?

                                Belarus: Electricity prices continue to rise 
despite launch of the Belarusian nuclear power plant (be)

                                In Q1 2025, the average price of electricity 
in Belarus reached 27.34 rubles per 100 kWh ? 8.9% higher than the same 
period in 2024 (25.11), according to an analysis by Pozirk based on official 
statistics. Despite government promises that the launch of the nuclear plant 
would lower prices, costs have continued to rise since the first reactor 
went online in 2020 and the second in 2023. Currently, the plant provides 
about 40% of the country?s electricity needs.


                                Azerbaijan: Climate change, environmental 
conditions, and challenges in the energy transition
                                Azerbaijan, whose economy heavily depends on 
oil and gas, faces serious climate-related challenges such as declining 
water resources and risks to agriculture and energy. Despite commitments 
under the Paris Agreement, the country?s energy transition remains limited. 
In 2024, renewables made up 10.6% of total energy, with only 2.9% from 
solar, wind, and bioenergy. Most of the increase came from a new solar power 
plant in Gobustan, but fossil fuel dependence remains strong.


                                Uzbekistan: Ministry of Ecology promises

                                Uzbekistan?s Ministry of Ecology will ensure 
public access to a national environmental monitoring database. The system 
will include data on trees and saplings, logging permits, outcomes of public 
hearings, and environmental law violations. This is part of the country?s 
Environmental Culture Development Concept, approved by President Shavkat 
Mirziyoyev on May 15, and in effect through 2030.


                                Russia: Fuel oil scandal in the Don region ? 
toxic waste lies untreated for five months
                                For nearly five months, several thousand 
tons of sand contaminated with fuel oil have remained at an unprepared waste 
site near Semikarakorsk, following a spill in the Kerch Strait. Local 
residents have blocked access to the site, prompting the Rostov region 
governor to suspend disposal activities until a safer solution is found. 
Despite this, the main contractor continues to accept new shipments of 
hazardous waste. Environmentalists warn that if the fuel oil seeps into 
groundwater, it could contaminate the Don River and contribute to a rise in 
cancer cases in the region.

                                Scientists warn: coastal areas remain at 
risk even if climate targets are met
                                The world could face devastating sea level 
rise of several meters over the coming centuries, even if the ambitious goal 
of limiting global warming to 1.5?C is achieved, scientists warn. Nearly 200 
countries have pledged to limit warming to 1.5?C, but researchers emphasize 
that this level cannot be considered "safe" for coastal populations. Their 
conclusion is based on recent data on how ice sheets are changing today?and 
how they have changed in the past. Nevertheless, experts stress that every 
fraction of a degree we can avoid will significantly reduce the risks.


                                Climate crisis intensifies Europe?s 
?chocolate crisis,? researchers warn
                                According to a new report, cocoa is among 
six key commodities imported to the EU that are heavily dependent on 
countries vulnerable to climate threats. In 2023, more than two-thirds of 
cocoa, coffee, soy, rice, wheat, and maize imported into the EU came from 
countries poorly prepared for climate change, say analysts from UK-based 
Foresight Transitions. For cocoa, wheat, and maize, over 66% of imports came 
from countries with significantly degraded biodiversity. Scientists warn 
that the loss of biodiversity further weakens agriculture and threatens the 
resilience of the EU?s food systems.


                                US oil companies inject chemicals 
underground without full disclosure ? despite legal requirements
                                In Colorado, despite having some of the 
strictest transparency laws in the US, oil and gas firms ? including 
Chevron ? have injected at least 30 million pounds of chemicals into the 
ground over the past 18 months without fully disclosing the contents. The 
law, which came into effect in July 2023, requires companies to report all 
chemicals used and bans toxic PFAS ?forever chemicals? at drilling sites. 
However, by May 1, disclosures had not been filed for 675 of the 1,114 
fracking locations ? more than 60% of all sites, according to the analysis.

                        The ongoing crisis facing South Africa's rhinos cannot be ignored. In the first three months of 2025 alone, 103 rhinos were killed, highlighting the threat posed by sophisticated poaching groups that exploit weaknesses in protection and enforcement. Rhinos are an iconic species. Their continued survival is under grave threat ? especially for critically endangered species like the Javan, Sumatran, and Black rhinos.



                        Sign this petition to demand that the South African government put more resources toward cracking down on poaching syndicates and strengthening wildlife protection laws.



                        While there has been a decrease in poaching in KwaZulu-Natal, the crisis has only shifted to other areas, with South African National Parks seeing a shocking increase in rhino killings ? 65 rhinos in just the first quarter of 2025. Local wildlife agencies and non-governmental organizations (NGOs) are working tirelessly on the frontlines, but they cannot do it alone. Sign this petition today and demand stronger protections for rhinos in South Africa!

                        Adriana Smith, a mother and nurse in the U.S. state of Georgia, was 9 weeks pregnant with her second child when she started experiencing unusually intense, painful headaches. She went to the hospital, but they simply gave her medication. The next morning, her partner noticed her "gasping for air in her sleep." He rushed her to another hospital, where doctors discovered blood clots in her brain. Doctors declared her brain-dead and medically dead.

                        But then medical staff said they had to put the dead woman on life support to keep her body alive, and carry her fetus to term. Under Georgia's abortion-banning "heartbeat bill," they were terrified of being charged with terminating the woman's pregnancy.




                        Medical experts agree that there is very little chance her body would be able to deliver a healthy baby, especially since she went on life support so early on in her pregnancy. Already, the fetus has fluid in its brain. As a result, doctors have warned the family that it "may be blind, may not be able to walk, [and] may not survive" after birth.


                        Despite this, she's been on life support for 3 months, and her body has reached 21 weeks of pregnancy. Doctors plan to keep her in this condition for another 3 months. Once her body reaches 32 weeks of pregnancy, they plan to cut her open via a C-section to deliver the baby.



                        But she is dead, unable to consent, and not aware of anything that is happening to her body. The woman's mother described it as "torture" to watch her daughter undergo this nightmare.

                        And in the meantime, the hospital bills keep stacking up. The family has had to turn to GoFundMe to raise money to cover these costs.

                        Georgia lawmakers must take a cold, hard look at the pain they're causing. They must stop holding this dead woman's body hostage, and reverse their grotesque "heartbeat bill"! Sign the petition!

                        It turns out our food packaging may be poisoning us. Toxic chemicals known as phthalates ? often called "everywhere chemicals" by researchers due to their prevalence ? have been leaching into our food and drinks, silently invading our bodies and causing devastating health effects.

                        A recent study linked phthalates to over 350,000 heart disease deaths in 2018 alone.


                        The evidence is alarming. Phthalates are chemicals that make plastic soft and flexible, and they're used extensively in food packaging. They're endocrine disruptors, meaning they alter our hormones and have been linked to severe health problems including infertility, ADHD, and especially heart disease.

                        Shockingly, despite overwhelming evidence of harm, the FDA still permits nine different phthalates to be used in food packaging. 


                        Why have corporations been allowed to poison us with dangerous chemicals for so long? Why hasn't the FDA stepped up to protect our health and safety?


                        Enough is enough. We must demand immediate action. Tell the FDA to ban phthalates in food packaging now. Our health, and the lives of countless others, depend on it! Sign the petition today!

                        A dense forest teeming with life, and essential to India?s Indigenous Adivasi people, could soon become a military training range.

            Deep in the heart of Bastar, India, the Abujhmad Forest is a safe haven for tigers, leopards, wild pigs, elephants, deer and monkeys. This rich nature reserve thrives because of the Indigenous Adivasi people, who have lived there in harmony, nurturing the lands and their culture for generations.

            Right now, a massive military offensive has been underway across the Adivasi heartland. Over 20,000 armed personnel have been deployed, and rising casualties are being reported. Civil society is negotiating in favour of peace talks to end the violence -- but the Indian government has escalated the assault. At the same time, deforestation is also progressing aggressively and youth activists speaking out being imprisoned. Now it is even more important to call on the Indian government to respond with dialogue, to uphold the rights of Indigenous people defending their land, forests, and the constitutional promise of autonomy.

            President Murmu is the commander in chief of the army ? with just one word, she could save the Forest lands and stop the orders of destruction. But for that, we must support the local resistance efforts and make them global and public NOW, as the bulldozers could arrive any day. Let?s ramp up the pressure:

            President Droupadi Murmu: Save the precious forests in Bastar and end the violence against Indigenous communities!

            The destruction of these vast forests isn?t just an environmental crisis ? it?s a death sentence for the people and wildlife that depend on them. An area the size of Madrid is being wiped out in the name of warfare, leaving tigers, elephants, and entire communities with nowhere to go.

            Those who resist face brutal repression. Since January 2024, over 180 people have been executed without trial, while countless others endure arrests, torture, and horrific violence ? simply for defending their home, the precious land and animals living there.

            But together, we can protect the people and the Forest. The Ek? community is millions of members strong ? from all around the world. We have the power to ramp up the pressure and turn global attention to what?s happening in Bastar! Are you in?

            President Droupadi Murmu: Save the precious forests in Bastar and end the violence against Indigenous communities!

            This Friday is UN International Day of Forests -- which means we have a good chance to get the forests in Bastar onto the agenda, if we act now.

                                Hope Amidst the Smoke

                                IN SPRING 2019, blossom-topped hedgehog cacti lined hiking trails and abundant wildflowers swarmed islands of palo verde trees and saguaros in Arizona?s Catalina State Park. Yet many of these plants would die the following year when the 120,000-acre Bighorn Fire burned a third of this stunning Sonoran desertscrub landscape. The blaze, sparked by a lightning strike just north of Tucson, exemplifies a new dynamic of worsening desert wildfires that are impacting beloved Southwestern landscapes and endangering nearby communities.


                                Large fires in Desert Southwest landscapes were rarely noted during the nineteenth and much of the twentieth centuries. But since 2005, nine mega-fires above 100,000 acres have burned in the Sonoran Desert and adjacent landscapes. Wildfire frequency is also increasing. In the Tonto National Forest outside Phoenix, home to vast expanses of saguaros, one study reported an approximate threefold increase in wildfires from 2000 through 2020 relative to the prior 20 years.


                                The Southwest?s desert ecosystems are young, says desert ecologist Benjamin Wilder, director of Next Generation Sonoran Desert Researchers, a cross-discipline, multinational coalition focused on biocultural conservation. ?Things have kind of just gotten here,? he said regarding the region?s flora. With climate change, an expanding human population, and the incursion of nonnative grasses driving this new fire regime, scientists and land managers are racing to understand how the Southwest?s still-evolving plant communities are responding.


                                Journalist Anna Marija Helt digs into the growing fire risk in the Southwest, unexpected desert resilience, and the dedicated people working to preserve this unique landscape.

                                We often overlook the creatures living right under our noses. But, as Thor Hanson writes, ?biological mysteries occur everywhere, even in the most urbanized landscapes on the face of the planet.? And they warrant more exploration.

                                Formerly redlined neighborhoods across the United States suffer from more frequent power outages, underpowered electrical services, and high energy bills. In these same neighborhoods, poverty often limits access to renewable energy. (Floodlight)

                                Across the American ?Broiler Belt,? chickens are raised in conditions that are bad for the birds, bad for the people who raise them, and bad the environment.

                        Every year, millions of migratory birds are killed in cities across North America, with New York City being one of the deadliest due to its glass skyscrapers, which cause countless bird collisions, particularly during migration seasons. However, there is hope: after thousands of bird deaths, Chicago's McCormick Place finally implemented bird-friendly glass treatments, reducing bird fatalities by 95%. It's time for New York City to adopt similar policies to protect birds from its skyscrapers.



                        Sign this petition to urge the New York City Council to implement a bird-friendly design ordinance for all buildings in migration corridors.



                        The truth is, New York City is a critical stop for migratory birds, and the cost of inaction is staggering. Thousands of birds ? some of which are endangered ? die each year due to collisions with glass windows. The technology to prevent these deaths exists, and it's time we take the necessary steps to protect our avian visitors. Together, we can save countless lives and ensure that New York is doing its part to preserve wildlife. Sign the petition now and demand a safer future for our migratory birds!

Subject: *[Enwl-eng] Gaza doctors silenced
Message-ID: <assp.0241e2f59f.060F0CA0D0ED473BBE1E7305AA2F0BC1@evol.sp.ru>

"This is not editorial caution. It?s political suppression."


                        The BBC is suppressing a powerful Gaza documentary 
that could help end the horror.

                        Over 600 prominent figures are calling for release 
of Gaza: Medics Under Fire.

                        Tell the BBC: stop delaying the documentary ? 
broadcast it now!

            The BBC is suppressing a documentary about the plight of doctors 
in Gaza, saying the delay is linked to an internal review of a different 
film by a different producer. It makes no sense.

            The UK government still supports Netanyahu?s murderous regime ? 
that?s why the BBC bosses won?t show the film. But airing Gaza: Medics Under 
Fire could help persuade MPs to bring an end to the horror.

            The documentary exposes the unbearable realities of life for 
Palestinians in Gaza and the brave medical professionals trying against all 
odds to save their lives.

            The only thing blocking the broadcast now is fear.

            Tell the BBC: stop delaying the documentary about Gaza doctors ? 
broadcast it now!

            Last September, the UK government suspended just 30 out of 
around 350 arms export licenses to Israel, and Israel?s F35 jets are still 
bombing with abandon today ? liquidating the Gaza ghetto, attacking 
neighbouring countries, and wearing through an endless supply of parts from 
countries including the UK.

            We urgently need a full arms embargo, and while Gaza: Medics 
Under Fire isn?t about the arms trade, it could have a huge impact on 
London, if the BBC broadcasts it.

            The documentary is produced by a respected former editor of 
Channel 4 News. It was supposed to be broadcast in early 2025, but the BBC 
won?t show it, and says it?ll only broadcast the film ?as soon as possible?, 
citing an internal review about a different Gaza documentary made by 
different producers.

            The Guardian reported on 22 May that other broadcasters and 
platforms have offered to air the documentary instead but that move has been 
vetoed by the BBC.

            This isn't editorial caution. There?s no reason to suppress this 
film because of issues about another film by someone else.

            Tell the BBC: Broadcast ?Gaza: Medics Under Fire? now!

            The Palestine Red Crescent Society (PRCS) says Gaza is facing 
?extreme risk of famine? with no food remaining in markets and aid 
distribution centres. Now, more than ever, the BBC has to rise up to its 
mandate as a public service broadcaster. Let?s make them do it.

            Our partners in Ecuador just asked us to rush them an advance to 
buy this species-rich wonderland ? one landowner needed a down payment 
immediately or she was going to sell it off to the highest bidder.

            It's all happening fast but there's still time for us to buy and 
protect this ecosystem forever! Chip in today to make it happen:





            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5

            This is mind-blowing: there?s a place in the Amazon that 
scientists argue has more species per square kilometer than anywhere else on 
the planet. Ferocious jaguars, emerald green boas, powerful harpy eagles, 
shy tapirs, and more?all sharing the same forest home (see lots of pictures 
below!!)

            But Vladimir, this pinnacle of biodiversity is under critical 
threat: the mouth of Ecuador?s Anzu River has been included in a concession 
to a gold mining company, TerraEarth. The only way to stop a mine from being 
ripped into the heart of this paradise is to buy the surrounding land, 
ensuring the company can?t get the legally-required permissions from 
landowners?because the landowners would be *US*.

            Actually, we?d help our local partner, Khamai, buy the land and 
incorporate it into the neighbouring Pitalala reserve. The newly expanded 
reserve would be a haven for nature and scientific research, a rewilded 
paradise protected forever. If we can act fast.

            This sounds dramatic, but these are the stakes: can you chip in 
to help us save what might *literally* be the most species-rich place on 
Earth?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


            Creating this protected area is urgent. Even aside from the 
concession, illegal gold mining in the area is exploding and miners are 
offering to rent or purchase land at above market value. Owners are looking 
to sell and have already received offers from the miners. Our partners are 
in touch with the landowners and have the opportunity to acquire the land 
before the miners do (they prefer the land conserved!) ? but only if we act 
now.

            This is what this incredible area should look like, pristine and 
untouched ? the part of the reserve that already exists:



            But the surrounding land is being devastated:





            And it?s happening fast:





            It?s hard to find a more obvious case for urgent conservation 
action. The place that might have more species density than anywhere else on 
Earth vs total devastation to mine gold.

            And we have great partners to do it. Khamai works with local 
communities Mulchiyacu and Zatzayacu, to promote sustainable economic 
alternatives to illegal mining, like ecotourism and conservation-based 
employment, to ensure there?s incentive to keep the land safe. They?ll also 
work to restore land that has already been damaged, and eventually to get 
UNESCO protection status for this irreplaceable piece of the planet.

            Vladimir, our community has bought critically-threatened pieces 
of nature before. But never in a place with *this* much natural life?because 
there might not be another place on Earth to match it. Can you chip in to 
buy and protect this part of the Ecuadorian Amazon ? and fuel campaigns like 
this to protect people and the planet from profit-hungry corporations, 
worldwide?


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount




            We wanted to include a few more pictures of wildlife to share 
the richness and beauty of this place.

            Here?s a tapir, poking its head out:





            A coiled Emerald Boa:







            A hiding Spix?s night monkey:





            And a spectacular tree frog:







            Their home could be destroyed. Or we could prevent it. Join in:


            I'll donate $3
            I'll donate $4

            I'll donate $5
            I'll donate $9
            I'll donate another amount


             Your donation will help power Ek? and our campaigns worldwide 
fighting for people and the planet.

                                Dear subscribers,

                                Green projects are picking up across the 
region ? but will that be enough to stop the losses? Ukraine, Georgia, 
Moldova, and Uzbekistan are betting on clean energy: building solar plants, 
retrofitting public buildings, and launching new environmental centers. 
Meanwhile, others are already facing the impacts of climate change: the 
Caspian Sea is shrinking, Tajikistan?s glaciers are melting, chlorine leaks 
are reported in Kazakhstan, and wildfires are raging across 2 million 
hectares in Russia. Kyrgyzstan joins the global net-zero commitment, while 
Belarus turns to nature-based solutions to fight fires. At the global level, 
tropical forests are disappearing ? and the race for control over the Arctic 
is heating up.New opportunities for activists ? at the end of the issue.

                                We?re always open to hearing your thoughts, 
ideas, or stories ? don?t hesitate to get in touch.

                                Sincerely,

                                News from the EECCA Region








                                Maia Bitadze: Georgia plays a key role in 
connecting the energy markets of Europe and Asia
                                ?Georgia, with its significant potential for 
renewable energy production, is actively working to align its national 
energy policy with European Union legislation and standards. In particular, 
the National Energy and Climate Integrated Plan, adopted by Parliament in 
2024, outlines comprehensive measures through 2030, including the reduction 
of greenhouse gas emissions, the accelerated adoption of renewable energy, 
and seamless integration of energy systems,? she emphasized.


                                Green guarantees: What?s happening in 
Ukraine?s electricity market
                                According to Boston Consulting Group (BCG), 
Ukraine?s renewable energy sector is expected to double by 2040: the share 
of renewables in the national energy mix will grow from 15% (2022 level) to 
28% and continue rising, making Ukraine?s power grid significantly ?greener? 
than in many EU countries. This was stated by BCG Senior Expert Balit 
Silhavi at the ?We Build Ukraine? conference.


                                Uzbekistan to open Central Asian 
Environmental Research Center
                                Uzbekistan will establish a Central Asian 
Environmental Research Center at Green University in collaboration with 
China. The center will serve as a platform for joint scientific research, 
professional training, and technology exchange. A memorandum was signed by 
representatives of the Ministry of Ecology and the Xinjiang Institute of 
Ecology and Geography at the Chinese Academy of Sciences.


                                How Belarus is fighting wildfires: Hope on 
horseback
                                When humans eliminate large predators and 
herbivores or drastically reduce their numbers, it triggers a domino effect 
in ecosystems that leads to environmental degradation. To reverse this, 
people are turning to rewilding ? a conservation approach aimed at restoring 
natural food chains and ecological processes disrupted by human activity.


                                Tajikistan?s role in protecting mountain 
glaciers
                                Home to over 13,000 glaciers, Tajikistan 
plays a crucial role in preserving Central Asia?s water resources. More than 
60% of the region?s water originates in the country, making glacier 
protection not only a national issue but a regional one. In the context of 
global climate change, Tajikistan has become a key initiator and participant 
in numerous programs aimed at conserving these vital natural assets.

                                Azerbaijan: Addressing Caspian Sea drying 
requires joint action
                                Over the past 20 years, the Caspian Sea?s 
water level has dropped by nearly three meters, and the coastline has 
receded by 15?20 kilometers ? a worrying trend with serious implications for 
the region?s economic stability. On May 22, Azerbaijan's presidential 
representative on climate issues, Mukhtar Babayev, emphasized during the 
session ?The Caspian: Cooperation for the Future? at the XI Nevsky 
International Environmental Congress that solving this problem is only 
possible through collective regional efforts.


                                Kyrgyzstan joins global zero waste 
commitment
                                Kyrgyzstan has officially joined the Global 
Commitment to Zero Waste. The document was signed on behalf of the country 
by Minister of Labor, Social Security and Migration Ravshanbek Sabirov. 
Although the commitment is declarative and not legally binding, it grants 
access to a wide range of international opportunities ? from technology and 
knowledge exchange to participation in global projects and attracting 
investment.


                                Armenia: A small country with a big 
biodiversity story
                                One year before hosting the 17th Conference 
of the Parties (COP17) to the UN Convention on Biological Diversity, Armenia 
offers six key lessons to the world. Known for its ancient monasteries and 
growing agritourism, this small South Caucasus nation is now gaining 
attention for its biodiversity conservation efforts. In 2026, Armenia will 
host COP17, marking a major step in its environmental leadership.


                                Kazakhstan: Chlorine release in 
Ust-Kamenogorsk still affecting air quality
                                Residents continue to report chemical odors, 
coughing, and breathing issues following a chlorine incident at the 
Ust-Kamenogorsk Titanium Magnesium Plant. Visibility dropped to less than 20 
meters during the night due to a dense fog-like cloud. The regional 
communication service explained that the issue arose during unplanned 
cleaning of the chlorination system, which caused internal coating to 
dislodge and temporarily blocked the gas duct.


                                Moldova: Parliament approves INSPIREE 
project ? ?73 million for energy efficiency
                                Moldova?s Parliament ratified a credit 
agreement with the French Development Agency to implement the INSPIREE 
project. Thirty public buildings, including universities and hospitals, will 
be modernized for greater energy efficiency. Planned improvements include 
insulation, upgraded heating and ventilation systems, and equipment 
replacement. The project aims to reduce energy consumption by up to 60%, 
save 12.3 GWh annually, and cut CO? emissions by 4,200 tons per year ? the 
equivalent of taking 12,600 cars off the road.

                                Russia: Wildfires spread across 2 million 
hectares ? 2.5 times more than last year

                                According to the Ministry of Emergency 
Situations, around 2,500 forest fire outbreaks have been recorded since the 
beginning of the year. The total burned area now exceeds 2 million hectares, 
2.5 times higher than the same period in 2024. Siberia is currently the 
epicenter of the disaster.

                                World Climate and Energy News


                                Trump?s tax bill to cost 830,000 jobs and 
drive up bills and pollution emissions, experts warn
                                A Republican push to dismantle clean energy 
incentives threatens to reverberate across the US by costing more than 
830,000 jobs, raising energy bills for US households and threatening to 
unleash millions more tonnes of the planet-heating pollution that is causing 
the climate crisis, experts have warned.

                                A major tax bill passed by the 
Republican-held House of Representatives on Thursday morning will, as 
currently written, demolish key components of climate legislation signed by 
Joe Biden that has spurred a record torrent of renewable energy and electric 
vehicle investment in the US.

                                Tropical forests destroyed at fastest 
recorded rate last year
                                The world's tropical forests, which provide 
a crucial buffer against climate change, disappeared faster than ever 
recorded last year, new satellite analysis suggests. Researchers estimate 
that 67,000 sq km (26,000 sq mi) of these pristine, old-growth forests were 
lost in 2024 ? an area nearly as large as the Republic of Ireland, or 18 
football pitches a minute. Fires were the main cause, overtaking land 
clearances from agriculture for the first time on record, with the Amazon 
faring particularly badly amid record drought.

                                Tensions rise as superpowers scrap for a 
piece of the Arctic
                                As soon as Magnus M?land became mayor of a 
small town on Norway's northern tip in late 2023, three delegations from 
China came knocking on his door. "It's because they want to be a polar 
superpower," he says. China might not instinctively spring to mind when you 
think about the Arctic - but it's determined to be a big Arctic player. It's 
been vying to buy real estate, get involved in infrastructure projects and 
hopes to establish a permanent regional presence. China already describes 
itself as a "near-Arctic state", even though its northernmost regional 
capital Harbin is on roughly the same latitude as Venice, Italy. But the 
Arctic is fast becoming one of the most hotly-contested parts of the world. 
Beijing faces stiff competition from Russia, Europe, India and the US. The 
race for the Arctic is on.

      First of all, I must say that it is a great honour for me to speak at 
this conference and to share my views with people who I know deeply 
acknowledge the existential importance of forests.

      We're meeting at a time when not only the global mean surface 
temperature has reached a new high, but also the rate of the warming has 
been rapidly increasing. While Douglas was talking about water availability 
and regional perspectives on how important water is for everybody, I will 
provide a more global perspective on how forests and water could be relevant 
in this global context of increasing emergency.



      What is essential about the current climate situation is that not only 
the rate of warming has been increasing ? on this graph to the right, you 
can see the recent trend in the Earth's energy imbalance. It has been 
increasing. It has actually doubled in recent decades. But what is also 
important is that climate models are not able to describe it. They're 
failing to describe this crucial process.

      And then we should ask, why do we need to re-focus on forests and 
water? Why are we having this session today, ?Cool forests: Beyond carbon?? 
>From my perspective, this is a recognition of two things. First, that so far 
we have been largely focusing on carbon. Second, that we have overlooked 
something very essential.

      Our long-term focus on carbon reflected guidance from global climate 
models that for many years have been the main tool of how we understand 
climate. These models unambiguously tell us that that forest impacts on 
climate are negligible if we are talking about anything beyond carbon.



      You can see here a figure from a major report and these yellow marks 
indicate the non-carbon forest contribution to the global temperature 
change. It is at best a few percent of what?s really going on. We are now 
talking about a 1.5-degree-Kelvin warming that happened in the last century, 
while models say that deforestation beyond carbon could have contributed one 
tenth of a degree at most (and this would likely be cooling).

      If the models were doing fine describing climate, and as they are 
telling us that forests don't matter except as stores of carbon, we could 
hardly argue for focusing more on water and its role in climate. But the 
models are not doing fine.



      What I want to show you here is a compilation of how different global 
climate models predict response to deforestation in terms of how much of 
water vapor will be transported from the ocean. You can see that not only 
the magnitude of the response differs by more than an order of magnitude 
across models, but even the sign is not predicted. In other words, we can't 
know from models what happens to the water cycle if we deforest land. They 
don't provide any guidance. There is no robust response.

      Accordingly, there is a growing recognition in the scientific 
community that models alone may not be a trusted source of guidance 
concerning the climate. Here you can see quotes from high profile scientists 
who draw attention to the fact that our understanding of what's going on, of 
the key processes behind climate change, has been lagging behind formal 
numerical modelling.



      We're at the point of re-prioritizing understanding from first 
principles supported by empirical evidence. Analysis of multidisciplinary 
evidence requires clear theoretical concepts and thinking frameworks.

      From my perspective, one of such unifying concepts could be the idea 
of natural ecosystems, primarily forests that are the most productive 
ecosystems, serving as climate stabilizers. Their loss in the course of land 
use and land cover change as well as in the course of oceanic exploitation, 
if we are talking about the ecosystems of the ocean, has become a major 
driver of climate destabilization.



      Here we are talking not just about global warming but about 
destabilization in the broader sense, including the increasing frequency of 
droughts, floods and other water related cataclysms and long-term trends 
like soil moisture loss.

      Now let me show very schematically how the forest can enter the 
current vision of global warming. This is the hardcore physics part of my 
talk, so please bear with me for a moment; it will be just for a few 
minutes.



      In this graph to the right, you can see how air temperature depends on 
height in the atmosphere of the Earth.

      In the steady state, the Earth receives as much energy from the Sun as 
it releases back to space.

      The heat released from the Earth to space comes from the upper 
radiating layer, which you can think of as where the greenhouse gases 
molecules sit that radiate directly to space. Nobody catches this radiation 
and nobody resends it back to the Earth.

      The higher the temperature of this layer, the more heat it will 
release.

      When we add more greenhouse substances, this layer goes up. It goes up 
and becomes colder. At this point the Earth releases less energy than it 
receives and it begins to warm. This warming goes to the surface through 
this red line, which is the how temperature declines with height.



      The slope of this red line shows how fast the air temperature declines 
with height. We have warming until the temperature of this upper radiative 
layer is again equal to the equilibrium temperature.

      This is the classical conventional view of the greenhouse effect, 
which describes the impact of the increasing CO2.

      Now going to the central scheme, we have clouds. What do clouds do? 
Clouds reflect more sunlight, so they change the equilibrium temperature of 
this upper layer. Even if we don't change the height of this layer from 
which the radiation goes to space, still we can change the surface 
temperature by reflecting more sunlight.

      If there are forests and they're making clouds, then the temperature 
is lower and their surfaces are cooler. And if we remove forests and remove 
clouds, there is more sunlight absorbed and there is warming.

      So one thing is clouds.

      Second thing, you can see from the geometry that we not only can move 
this line, the grey one, not only can we move the blue one, but we can also 
move the red line, which is how the temperature changes with height when 
there is transpiration.

      Forests capture a certain part of solar energy at the surface in the 
form of what is called latent heat. This latent heat is then released during 
condensation higher in the troposphere from where it later goes unimpeded to 
space.

      Thus by transpiration forests smooth the temperature lapse rate and 
thus cause cooling. If we reduce transpiration, then more heat remains at 
the surface, the temperature lapse rate becomes steeper, and we have 
warming.

      Both effects (of transpiration and clouds) will be global and both 
effects will involve how forests handle water.

      Now let me show that both effects are very real and significant.

      First, if we are looking at clouds, we have evidence that the record 
heat in 2023 could have been facilitated by a biospheric breakdown, because 
we know that in this year the Amazon suffered an unprecedented drought and 
there were unprecedented forest fires in Canada. In both cases, 
transpiration and cloud formation were drastically reduced.



      We can see that cloud cover was reduced over the Amazon and the 
adjacent oceanic regions. There is an additional hotspot of cloud reduction 
over Canada.

      This is backed up by our knowledge of how efficient forests are in 
generating low level clouds that cool the earth. We can see that the the 
more productive forests are, the more efficient they are in generating 
clouds. While when we change them for non-forest systems the generation of 
cloud cover is drastically reduced.

      Now regarding transpiration and the role of atmospheric moisture 
transport. Here again we can see that energy captured as latent heat through 
transpiration at the surface goes up to the atmosphere and is released to 
space from the upper atmosphere.



      A new biotic pump film from Ray Asselin is available on Youtube

      But this process does take time. If there is a long-range regular flow 
of moist air from the ocean to land and back via the upper atmosphere, this 
heat has time to be released and thus cools the Earth.

      If we deforest and disrupt this long-range moisture transport, and 
this is what we find in observations, precipitation will be more rigorous 
over the deforested areas, but only locally. These more rigorous upward and 
downward motions will be so rapid that the heat won?t have time to be 
released to space from the upper atmosphere and it will return to the 
surface with the downdrafts. This will cause an increase in the temperature 
lapse rate and cause global warming.

      As we showed in a recent study, the models don't capture this effect, 
and the trend in lapse rate is indeed unexplained and it is very 
significant, especially over land. Thus, there are strong lines of evidence 
that when we deforest and when we disrupt the moisture flows associated with 
transpiration, this produces globally significant effects.

      From these more specific examples, I want to get closer to the 
conclusions and to the more general concepts generally for these biospheric 
climate regulating processes.

      Forests require water to function, and the capacity of forests to 
manage its water balance naturally declines when we begin to disturb them ? 
by logging, burning or disturbing them in some other ways. This leads to 
climate destabilization through disruption in the water cycle, which can be 
incorporated into the global change narrative using the notion of climate 
sensitivity.

      Climate sensitivity describes how much the planet warms if the CO2 
concentration doubles. This can be calculated from models and the models 
differ greatly in these estimates. [You can read more about how different 
models describe climate sensitivity in this post.]

      In the current narrative, -- this will be the simpler part without 
formula or anything -- if this guy is CO2 and this is the Earth and this 
arrow is warming, the more CO2, the more warming. This is how the current 
narrative has it.

      If we include the ecosystems and incorporate the biosphere, we will 
see that there are different situations: sometimes it is more ?difficult? 
for a given amount of CO2 to warm the planet, and sometimes it is less 
difficult.

      If we destroy forests and remove their climate-regulating potential, 
we will get more warming and more climate extremes for the same CO2 
addition.

      In the current narrative, we focus on decarbonization, while 
biodiversity and forests are a minor thing which we only consider as 
something of secondary importance.

      In the narrative that incorporates the biosphere, our key strategy is 
to preserve ecosystems to decrease climate sensitivity to CO2 accumulation. 
The more forests, functional forests, self-regenerating forests we have, the 
more stable our climate. [Further reading: ?Natural ecosystems and climate 
stabilization?]

      Conversely, the more we take from the ecosystem, the fewer resources 
it has to buffer climate extremes.



      If we saw this 2023 anomaly after a drought in the Amazon forest that 
was mercilessly plundered, especially during the Bolsonaro times with 
increasing logging and burning, then now if we have this large-scale 
deforestation project in Indonesia (MIFEE), we are explicitly asking for 
more acute global warming.

      Ironically, these terrible developments are facilitated by the 
carbon-focused narrative. Much of the argumentation behind this huge 
deforestation project in Indonesia is that they will have green fuel, like a 
renewable fuel, but instead this will actually destabilize our planet even 
further.

      The conclusions would be that it so happened that the evidence that we 
now have shows that climate science is in need of conceptual rethinking and 
that there is a rare opportunity that its trajectory moves towards 
recognizing a greater role of the biosphere.

      And we need to know this, how imperfect the models are and not be 
afraid of bringing evidence from different fields of knowledge, which people 
working on the ground often get, and not afraid of talking about it because 
the models are currently failing very spectacularly.

      Natural forests buffer the climate by regulating atmospheric humidity, 
moisture transport and cloud formation. It is crucial to stand up 
scientifically against large-scale deforestation projects.

      Also because, and it is another thing I want to mention, if we don't 
raise the importance of forests in the global climate agenda, we can't hope 
that any funding that currently goes to climate issues will go to the 
forests.

      If we demonstrate that forests are crucial players, this may totally 
change the flow of funds towards their preservation and restoration. 
Currently, the widely spread argumentation that I showed in the very 
beginning, that they are not contributing anything to climate except being a 
carbon storage, is depriving the forest topic of any significant funding, 
including research funding.

      Meanwhile, environmental stability provided by natural forests will 
support long term economic planning and protect investments, especially in 
the long term. I think that international and interdisciplinary 
collaboration need some clear concepts, some unifying ideas. Probably, 
forests as climate stabilizers could be one.

      Conclusions
      ?Climate science is at a crossroads, with a rare opportunity to shift 
its trajectory toward a more biosphere-oriented approach.

      ?Natural forests buffer the climate by regulating atmospheric 
humidity, moisture transport and cloud formation.

      ?Standing up scientifically against large-scale deforestation projects 
is challenging due to political and economic pressures ? but absolutely 
essential.

      ?The environmental stability provided by natural forests supports 
economic planning and protects long-term investments.

      ?International and interdisciplinary collaboration needs big unifying 
ideas ? forests as climate stabilizers could be one.

                        Car emissions create horrible public health issues, 
and worsen climate change.









                        Congress Wants to Block California From Regulating 
Car Emissions. Don't Let Them!



                        Sign Now



                        There are numerous reasons why it is important to 
regulate smog and emissions from vehicles like cars, buses, and trucks. Such 
regulations help us to fight climate change by reducing our carbon 
footprint, as well as reduce air pollution and, by extension, improve the 
well-being of humans, animals, and the surrounding environment. It even 
saves people money by reducing the need for more fossil fuels!

                        That's why it's been so crucial to have California 
leading the way by setting the strictest emissions standards in the U.S. But 
of course, Trump and his cronies hate that. So the Republican-controlled 
U.S. Senate just voted to block California's ability to set stronger rules.

                        The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has 
given California waivers to set it own, stricter, standards for almost 60 
years. This decision is up to the EPA alone ? not Congress. But Republicans 
are so incensed by the idea of protecting the environment and public health, 
they're trying revoke California's ability to use these waivers.

                        With climate change worsening year after year, we 
don't have any time to lose when it comes to reducing our carbon emissions. 
Vehicles are one of the top contributors to climate change around the globe, 
including in the U.S. ? one of the most carbon-emitting countries in the 
world. Additionally, loosening emissions laws would mean millions of 
children and families face the horrible effects of worse air quality. Even 
worse, air pollution disproportionately impacts communities of color, 
saddling them with a public health crisis.



                        Luckily, California Governor Gavin Newsom has 
declared: "We won't stand by as Trump Republicans make America smoggy 
again... We're going to fight this unconstitutional attack on California in 
court."

                        California must continue to be a leader when it 
comes to environmental justice and emissions regulations. Sign the petition 
to demand that California stand strong and fight this illegal Congressional 
action!

            Vladimir, our partners in Ecuador just asked us to rush them an

            It's all happening fast but there's still time for us to buy and 
protect this ecosystem forever! Chip in today to make it happen:

            This is mind-blowing: there?s a place in the Amazon that 
scientists argue has more species per square kilometer than anywhere else on 
the planet. Ferocious jaguars, emerald green boas, powerful harpy eagles, 
shy tapirs, and more?all sharing the same forest home (see lots of pictures 
below!!)

            But Vladimir, this pinnacle of biodiversity is under critical 
threat: the mouth of Ecuador?s Anzu River has been included in a concession 
to a gold mining company, TerraEarth. The only way to stop a mine from being 
ripped into the heart of this paradise is to buy the surrounding land, 
ensuring the company can?t get the legally-required permissions from 
landowners?because the landowners would be *US*.

            Actually, we?d help our local partner, Khamai, buy the land and 
incorporate it into the neighbouring Pitalala reserve. The newly expanded 
reserve would be a haven for nature and scientific research, a rewilded 
paradise protected forever. If we can act fast.

            This sounds dramatic, but these are the stakes: can you chip in 
to help us save what might *literally* be the most species-rich place on 
Earth?

            Creating this protected area is urgent. Even aside from the 
concession, illegal gold mining in the area is exploding and miners are 
offering to rent or purchase land at above market value. Owners are looking 
to sell and have already received offers from the miners. Our partners are 
in touch with the landowners and have the opportunity to acquire the land 
before the miners do (they prefer the land conserved!) ? but only if we act 
now.

            This is what this incredible area should look like, pristine and 
untouched ? the part of the reserve that already exists:



            But the surrounding land is being devastated:





            And it?s happening fast:





            It?s hard to find a more obvious case for urgent conservation 
action. The place that might have more species density than anywhere else on 
Earth vs total devastation to mine gold.

            And we have great partners to do it. Khamai works with local 
communities Mulchiyacu and Zatzayacu, to promote sustainable economic 
alternatives to illegal mining, like ecotourism and conservation-based 
employment, to ensure there?s incentive to keep the land safe. They?ll also 
work to restore land that has already been damaged, and eventually to get 
UNESCO protection status for this irreplaceable piece of the planet.

            Vladimir, our community has bought critically-threatened pieces 
of nature before. But never in a place with *this* much natural life?because 
there might not be another place on Earth to match it. Can you chip in to 
buy and protect this part of the Ecuadorian Amazon ? and fuel campaigns like 
this to protect people and the planet from profit-hungry corporations, 
worldwide?

            We wanted to include a few more pictures of wildlife to share 
the richness and beauty of this place.

            Here?s a tapir, poking its head out:





            A coiled Emerald Boa:







            A hiding Spix?s night monkey:





            And a spectacular tree frog:

Sometimes, keeping on with the work at hand can also be a form of resistance.

                                We Can Do Better

                                It is hard these days to feel like the work I?m doing matters. Instead of sitting behind a desk, shouldn?t I be out there, putting my body on the line as young students get locked up for simply speaking up, as children get torn from parents who are disappeared to prisons overseas, as even sitting judges get arrested on trumped-up charges? 

                                I grapple with this question all the time as the Trump administration wages an increasingly cruel war against the people of this nation.

                                But then I get to editing stories like our Summer print issue cover feature by Hannah Palmer, about how her search for swimmable waters in the US South led to her discovery of the region?s environmental history, its water policy, and the racial politics of public spaces. And Eric Freedman?s profile of researchers who dedicate their lives to seeking out and helping save previously unknown species. And Viola Kerekes? account of her work with a herd of the last wild horse species left on Earth, which includes this incredible factoid ? she knows the nearly 300 horses in the herd by name. 

                                Stories like these remind me that there are people out there still working away in their own spaces to better this world. They remind me of what legendary writer-activist James Baldwin said in reference to the power of individuals to create positive change and inspire others: ?The world is held together, really it is held together, by the love and the passion of very few people.? And they remind me, also, of the value of bringing these narratives to you. 

                                Storytelling, after all, is such an integral part of being human. Stories allow us to share information in ways that help us make sense of the world around us and of our place in it. 

                                None of the features in our new issue (which we will start rolling out online next week) deal directly with the massive negative impact the new political regime is having on just about every aspect of our lives, climate and environment included. But in some ways, that omission in itself is an act of resistance. Why give oxygen to narratives of fear that are already circulating out there, that breed division and isolation at a time when we should be building community and fostering hope for the future?

                                While the Journal doesn?t hesitate to ring the alarm bell when needed, perhaps our role during these dark days is to ensure we tell more stories that show us that good persists, love persists ? and that simply doing what you love can also be a form of resistance.

                                 The latest print edition of Earth Island Journal will be arriving in mailboxes and hitting newsstands any day now.
                                  
                                 
                                   
                                 
                                  
                                 
                                In this issue you will find:


                                ?An on-the-ground report from Hungary about the world?s only remaining wild horse species and efforts to reintroduce it in the steppes of Central Asia and Europe.

                                ? A thought-provoking personal essay about how systemic racism has limited access to water ? including pools, lakes, and rivers ? in southern Black communities, and the quest to find shared spaces to swim.

                                ? An intriguing feature about what drives scientists to seek previously unknown species, and how their discoveries are furthering both our understanding of biodiversity and how to conserve it.

                                ? An investigative report from Zimbabwe, where the climate crisis is spurring migration into neighboring South Africa while also making the border-crossing less treacherous.

                                ? A dispatch from the Philippines, where coastal development and industrial fishing threaten the lifestyle and livelihoods of the country?s dwindling artisanal fishing communities.



                                Plus:

                                ?A conversation with sociologist and a self-described ?apocalyptic optimist? Dana Fisher about climate protest, systemic racism, and the American resistance.

                                ? A personal essay by Camilla Fox of Earth Island?s Project Coyote about how her deep connection with the wild informs the work she does to promote coexistence with our nonhuman neighbors.

Message-ID: <assp.02467d89ab.FA7ABD383D0C42A39C2AE092585E426E@lewpostnew>

                       
                 
           
                        These elephants don't belong in the LA Zoo, or in any zoo at all.
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                       
                 
           
                        Billy and Tina the Elephants Have Been in Captivity at the LA Zoo for Decades. Send Them to a Sanctuary!

                        Billy the Asian elephant was only 4 years old when he was sold and shipped from Malaysia to Los Angeles. At that point, 36 years ago, he became a captive resident at the city's zoo ? and he's been there ever since. Now, he lives with companion Tina, a 59 year old elephant.

                        But their time in zoos seems to be nowhere near over. After the LA Zoo euthanized their two other aging herd members, it is planning to send them to yet another zoo in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

                        Zoos are extremely stressful environments for elephants. Elephants are intelligent, social creatures who recognize each other's calls, assign individual specific names to members of their herds, mourn their dead, and show incredible empathy and self-awareness.



                        Trapped in spaces significantly smaller than the 2.7 million acres they need to roam in the wild, they become distressed, disturbed, and physically unhealthy. Living in captivity cuts their lifespan, on average, by around 30-45%, and leaves them vulnerable to chronic health conditions.

                        For all these reasons and more, Tina and Billy do not belong at the LA Zoo ? or at any zoo at all. As the pop singer and icon Cher has said: "Billy and Tina have served their time in confinement... They deserve the chance to live out their lives in peace and dignity."

                        Help us stand with Cher and countless other advocates by urging the City of Los Angeles to release Billy and Tina from this ongoing cycle of captivity! Sign the petition to demand it sending them to a reputable sanctuary instead!

Subject: Ivory trade

20,000 African elephants illegally killed every year

          
                        Endangered elephants are being illegally slaughtered for trinkets.

                        Now, some countries want to make it legal and overturn the global ban on ivory trading.

                        Protect elephants and demand the ivory trade ban remains in place!

                         Sign the petition 
                       
                 


            Elephants are being slaughtered so their tusks can be turned into trinkets. And now, some governments want to make it legal. Japan and South Africa are pushing to overturn the global ivory trading ban and reopen the market for elephant tusks.

            20,000 African elephants are illegally killed each year for their tusks. A legal ivory trade could wipe out endangered populations.

            In just a few months world leaders will gather at the Endangered Species Convention and the ivory ban is on the agenda. To make sure it?s kept in place let's build a massive wave of public pressure and show them that millions want to protect elephants.

            Sign the petition: protect elephants ? keep the global ivory trading ban.

            Forest elephants are gentle, intelligent beings who form lifelong family bonds, and even mourn their dead. But their populations in Africa have already declined by 90% because of illegal poaching that turns their beautiful tusks into art and jewellery.

            Instead of enabling legal ivory trading, conservation efforts should be going towards protecting endangered elephant populations, tackling habitat loss and planning for human and elephant co-existence. These solutions would also provide jobs for locals and create sustainable tourism opportunities.

            Add your name and demand the global ivory trade ban stays in place.

            We?ve stopped this type of cruelty before?let?s do it again and protect the world?s last elephants before it?s too late.


             Sign the petition 
            Thanks for all that you do, 
            Nish, Danny and the team at Ek?
