#ClimateCrisis and #SpeciesExtinction are two sides of the same coin. That's why you'll find a potpourri of studies and news mainly on #climate, #biodiversity, #plastics, #pesticides, #energy and #agriculture, mixed with a little politics #StopptFakeNews 🏳️🌈
Germany‘s Minister of the Environment: „Instead of betting on the Fata Morgana of nuclear (energy), we bet on better, safer, and more affordable renewables. I reject spending more tax money on new risk reactors“
Conventional nuclear has long lost on cost.
Official map from NOAA depicting the relative rank of winter 2025-2026 temperatures at a county level across the contiguous U.S. Many counties in the western and central U.S. are depicted in dark red color, signifying record-warmest winter. All other counties in the west and central U.S. are depicted in dark orange colors, signifying a "near record warm" rank.
The official NOAA stats out this week confirm that winter 2025-26 was the warmest on record across a huge portion of the western and central U.S., which has contributed to extremely low mountain snowpack & worsened the CO River crisis. Meanwhile, record March heat is in forecast.

Long-term ocean warming steadily reduces fish biomass. Short-term warming and heatwaves create local winners and losers, boosting cold-edge populations (+176% biomass) but harming warm-edge ones (-41.6%).
For every 0.1°C / decade increase in seabed temperature, biomass declined by 7.22% on average.

New paper alert!
Across 256 semi‑natural grassland communities we found that genomic traits, especially ploidy, predict which plant species are most affected by fragmentation & high P levels
Polyploids are less vulnerable than diploids

🌲 Tree cover density in North America.
Cutting 25% of its original forest cover since colonial settlement, we’re sitting at ~32% forested today.
Scientists detail 40-50% protection of land (forests, wetlands, grasslands) is needed to reverse the biodiversity & climate crisis.

The fishing of krill is putting marine wildlife at risk.❗
To protect this fragile ecosystem, the fishery needs to be paused until stronger management and safeguards are in place.

A Finnish government study, to be published in May, will outline a plan to “build” a “Verdant Wall” along #Finland’s Eastern border by #rewilding and restoring natural habitats, especially marshlands, as barriers to invasion. Win win win!

A recent study published in Scientific Reports examines how ongoing climate change could significantly reshape the types of crops that can be successfully cultivated across Germany in the future. The paper, “Undamped climate change poses the need for substantial shifts in cultivated crop types in…
'Billions fewer birds are flying through North American skies than decades ago and their population is shrinking ever faster, a new study has found. The decline is mostly due to a combination of intensive agriculture and warming temperatures.'

This is amazing.
When the government kills a crucial report, independent scientists decide to write it anyway and release it outside of government channels.
That’s science serving society, even when our political leaders don’t.
