I’ll be 100% honest the reason I don’t use this platform more is because there’s no option for my account to be private.

Friendly reminder to support your local independent bookstore this weekend!

A slightly less friendly reminder to just not buy books from Am*zon at all.

I haven't been on here in a while mainly because I can't have my account be private.

Iconic cartoon with people looking at a long list of public benefits connected with climate action, asking “What if it’s a big hoax and we create a better world for nothing?”

15+ years old, but still VERY relevent — and if we had acted 15 years ago, the “better world” we’d be creating would be a LOT better & easier to reach. There are real consequences we’re just starting to see to not heeding this cartoon a lot sooner. Even worse if we don’t heed it now. #ClimateCrisis

Nature's palette...

Your reminder that there is still beauty in this world worth fighting for. And we -will- fight for it.

Did u know? 87% of homes in the UK have gardens. Even more, if you include balconies, window boxes & shared spaces. Just imagine what the country would be like if all of these outside spaces were managed with wildlife care at their core...We can all make a difference... 🌍🌿🌱🐝🪲🕷️🐛🐞🪰🐦‍⬛

I'm really pleased that the ripples receeded just enough for the mountain's reflection to appear.
A fleeting moment as it disappeared within seconds.
Right place at the right time.

A while back I asked folks why they’re joining Bluesky and the most common response I saw was, “I just want a good place to get my news” and, yall, no. Bad.

Spend most of today and yesterday outdoors.

I think a lot of people would care more about our planet if they took the time to actually experience the joy and beauty each season brings.

Planning your garden? Think like a pollinator! 🐝

All women in the United States need to start learning some martial art, particularly Judo, Jiu Jitsu, Muay Thai, and/or kickboxing.

I'm not saying they will 100% protect you, but they do help, and you'll start to notice you'll carry yourself with more confidence, which helps keep predators at bay.

Yup, exactly. The "so much for climate change" crowd make me laugh. This event is a direct result of a warming Arctic.

I did find some this way! Just wanting some outliers I might have missed too from this option.

We’re getting lots of new Bluesky friends!

Please share your favorite science and conservation starter packs as a reply here and I’ll share them. Let’s get our science and conservation friends lots of followers! 🧪🌎🦑

I'm looking for accounts to follow focused on:

-Gardening
-Native plants
-Climate change
-Conservation
-Forestry

I think at this we gotta understand that it's a collective effort to work within our communities to make a difference. I also think social media makes us believe if we're gonna take action then our actions must save the world, otherwise it's futile. Small, daily actions will still make a difference.

I'm celebrating my birthday! :)

Thank you! I just submitted my application

That being said, if anyone has any recommendations for climate, conservation, and sustainability accounts to follow on here, that would be much appreciated 🙏

Will try to use this app more. Threads has consumed me and I know it's because the algorithm does a great job at pulling me in with headlines and hot takes that either make my blood boil or stir up intense emotions.

Beautiful Becky!!!!!

In case you didn't know, the aurora is not always green :)

Reconnecting with the Twitter homies on Bluesky

This is what it feels like seeing all these people from the AWAE Twitter community on Bluesky. It's a nice reunion.
