This Summer, we're probably going to see more records broken. But they won't all be something to celebrate. From extreme weather events to unprecedented wildfires, climate records are being shattered everywhere on our planet. We need leaders to take action on the #ClimateCrisis. Together we can change the game. We can #ChangeClimateChange.
Time to join together & support All our organisations in UK & globally on this ! Thanx WWF ! 😊 ❤️ 💙 💜
The UK has become one of the most nature-depleted countries in the world. But we are also a nation of people and communities who care about our natural world.🌱 That’s why people, charities and partners like Aviva are taking action all across the UK: 🌸 Belgrave Community Garden raised £2,060 to bring nature and community together in the heart of Leicester, 🌊 Communities, businesses and experts are restoring vital seagrass habitats on our coastlines, 💧 Volunteers, charities and partners are reducing flood risk in the Soar River using natural solutions, 💚 The Aviva Access to Nature Fund is breaking down barriers to nature by supporting access to Norfolk’s rivers and countryside.
A NEW project shows it's possible to predict deforestation! 🙌 Right now, we’re losing our world’s forests at alarming rates. Protecting them now is more important than ever. WWF Netherlands are working with partners to help protect the future of forests. Using AI and satellite imagery, the new project alerts local authorities in the present - helping stop irreversible damage to forest habitat. With the project saving 30 hectares of forest in Gabon so far, it's now planned to be rolled out in a further 12 countries by 2027. Unfurl the full project details here. 🍃👇 https://lnkd.in/g6hM_xD7
Did you know the WWF UK office is home to three thriving weeping fig trees? 🌳🌳🌳 With the help of planting from Sir David Attenborough himself, stepping into the WWF UK Living Planet Centre can almost feel like stepping into a gigantic treehouse. With indoor greenery and natural woods, the building has been awarded BREEAM status. This means it's recognised as one of the greenest buildings in the UK! 👇 https://lnkd.in/eZJcWMpP
The King’s Speech emphasis on climate action is a welcome step change. 👏 If GB Energy can speed up the rollout of cheap, clean British energy, it will be our biggest and best hope for a secure energy future and well worth celebrating. Both climate and nature must be at the heart of the Government’s vision for growth. https://lnkd.in/e73i-6RN

Our world is in crisis. We’re losing precious wildlife as their homes are destroyed. 🚨 The new UK government has been elected at a time where there is a wave of public support on nature and climate. We're insisting that all political parties commit to stop fuelling the destruction of nature. Nature needs our help, add your voice now. 👉 https://brnw.ch/21wLerw #NatureCrisis #UKNature
‘Cool’ underwater tech is helping protect Adélie Penguins. 😎 These incredible birds live in a challenging and ever-changing climate. But an amazing new method of capturing Adélie penguin behavior could potentially guide their future conservation! These little birds only have so much energy to expend, making it vital they use it wisely. With support from WWF, CNRS researcher Ben Dupuis has developed a way to record the amount of energy Adélie penguins use when they forage for their food using depth sensors. Thanks to technology like this, scientists can better understand how climate change affects the energy penguins use and in turn make a leap forward when it comes to protecting them in the future. 💙 #AdeliePenguin #Conservation #Wildlife
