History made: 🇵🇹 takes lead in effort to stop deep-sea mining

While countries like Spain and France have adopted parliamentary resolutions in opposition to deep-sea mining, #Portugal is - so far - the only European country to have translated these concerns into a binding law to adopt a deep-sea mining moratorium.

House #sparrows, once one of the most common #bird species, are becoming increasingly rare in #Europe. Several studies have already shown a direct link between the decline in species and industrialised #agriculture ( #herbicides, #insecticides, #glyphosat).
A new #study shows chronic exposure to #tebuconazole, a widely used #fungicide impairing offspring growth and survival in farmland birds

@soydelbierzo On a planet with #climateCrisis and #biodiversity loss, we need *all* #seedBanks everywhere.
You can see what happens with #biodiversityloss if only a small region get's a disturbed #ecology system.

Ecology is not a national but a planetary thing. Plus #economy: The USA export food. Poor countries with disturbed farming are dependend on imports. We need more species for the future of *humanity* as a whole.
What happens in the USA roughly concerns the EU, too!

@EUCommission Did I miss one of the most important panels for the problems of our time: a green panel with fighting #climatechange? A coloured one with fighting #biodiversityLoss?
I found only watering down climate aims for the industry, the car industry, and the agricultural sector too.

If we had won all possible wars and deleted fascist systems one day, we'll die because of #climatecrisis and species #extinction?

BTW, I miss #TaxTheRich.

The Sand Crisis No One is Talking About…

Sand, a resource essential to modern life, is being extracted at unsustainable rates, wreaking havoc on marine ecosystems. Unlike other industries, its impact is largely ignored, despite causing habitat destruction, biodiversity loss, and worsening climate vulnerabilities... #sandextraction #habitats #marineecosystems #biodiversityloss #climatecrisis #climatechange #mining

Global study shows #pesticides are a major contributor to the #biodiversity crisis

Professor Dave Goulson of the University of Sussex said: “It is often assumed that pesticides are toxic primarily to the target pest and closely related organisms, but this is clearly not true. Concerningly, we found pervasive negative impacts across plants, animals, fungi and microbes, threatening the integrity of ecosystems.”

Pesticide Action Network UK · Global study shows pesticides are a major contributor to the biodiversity crisis - Pesticide Action Network UKPesticides are causing overwhelming negative effects on hundreds of species of microorganisms, plants, insects, fish, birds and mammals that they are not intended to harm, and globally their use is a major contributor to the biodiversity crisis. That is the finding of the first study assessing the impacts of pesticides [...]

While this may’ve been a coincidence, the Doomsday Clock news coming up just after Reeves announced “reducing the environmental requirements placed on developers” seemed apposite. Especially followed by the commitment to Heathrow expansion. To allow myself a moment of melodrama, Labour has declared war on nature and the climate in the name of money.

Finally, the idea for my #exhibition! " #Archaeologists made a revolutionary #discovery in 2033. In the vicinity of pottery shards from the late Betschdorf and Soufflenheim cultures (early 21st century), they found objects reminiscent of ancient #reliquaries. An antique QR code will be provided for you to visit this page. You can also beam up in the form of a hologram." 😎 😂 ▶️ cronenburg.net/reliquaires/ #SciArt #ArtActivism #BiodiversityShrines #BiodiversityLoss #archaeology #butterflies

A preciously ornated round cheese box with hand-made perlage and braid in orange and green colour shades. Inside is a green-grey moth, Jordanita subsolana. The wings on one side are hidden under a hand-made gossamer of raw silk, my symbol for vanishing. Once native to Alsace, they are now considered to have disappeared. A tiny precious element in the same green as the moth is a piece of plastic waste that melted into grey concrete. Glass beads are fixed into a golden crochet "flower".

#introduction Hello fediverse! We're a community of academics, students and employees at the University of Copenhagen (UCPH), Denmark, with the shared mission of discussing and researching degrowth strategies, and making knowledge about degrowth widely available in UCPH and society at large.

We are organizing online & in-person courses, talks & events on the topic of #degrowth and its connections to #decarbonization, #democracy, #decolonization, #equity, #feminism, human and #ecological well-being and many other topics.
