When I was in vet school I went to this one lecture that I will never forget. Various clubs would have different guest lecturers come in to talk about relevant topics and since I was in the Wildlife Disease Association club I naturally attended all the wildlife and conservation discussions. Well on this particular occasion, the speakers started off telling us they had been working on a project involving the conservation of lemurs in Madagascar. Lemurs exist only in Madagascar, and they are in real trouble; they’re considered the most endangered group of mammals on Earth. This team of veterinarians was initially assembled to address threats to lemur health and work on conservation solutions to try and save as many lemur species from extinction as possible. As they explored the most present dangers to lemurs they found that although habitat loss was the primary problem for these vulnerable animals, predation by humans was a significant cause of losses as well. The vets realized it was crucial for the hunting of lemurs by native people to stop, but of course this is not so simple a problem.

The local Malagasy people are dealing with extreme poverty and food insecurity, with nearly half of children under five years old suffering from chronic malnutrition. The local people have always subsisted on hunting wildlife for food, and as Madagascar’s wildlife population declines, the people who rely on so-called bushmeat to survive are struggling more and more. People are literally starving.

Our conservation team thought about this a lot. They had initially intended to focus efforts on education but came to understand that this is not an issue arising from a lack of knowledge. For these people it is a question of survival. It doesn’t matter how many times a foreigner tells you not to eat an animal you’ve hunted your entire life, if your child is starving you are going to do everything in your power to keep your family alive.

So the vets changed course. Rather than focus efforts on simply teaching people about lemurs, they decided to try and use veterinary medicine to reduce the underlying issue of food insecurity. They supposed that if a reliable protein source could be introduced for the people who needed it, the dependence on meat from wildlife would greatly decrease. So they got to work establishing new flocks of chickens in the most at-risk communities, and also initiated an aggressive vaccination program for Newcastle disease (an infectious illness of poultry that is of particular concern in this area). They worked with over 600 households to ensure appropriate husbandry and vaccination for every flock, and soon found these communities were being transformed by the introduction of a steady protein source. Families with a healthy flock of chickens were far less likely to hunt wild animals like lemurs, and fewer kids went hungry. Thats what we call a win-win situation.

This chicken vaccine program became just one small part of an amazing conservation outreach initiative in Madagascar that puts local people at the center of everything they do. Helping these vulnerable communities of people helps similarly vulnerable wildlife, always. If we go into a country guns-blazing with that fire for conservation in our hearts and a plan to save native animals, we simply cannot ignore the humans who live around them. Doing so is counterintuitive to creating an effective plan because whether we recognize it or not, humans and animals are inextricably linked in many ways. A true conservation success story is one that doesn’t leave needy humans in its wake, and that is why I think this particular story has stuck with me for so long.

Importance Of Emergency Assembly Points During Evacuation

In times of crisis, having designated emergency assembly point (EAPs) is paramount for swiftly organizing evacuations and ensuring the safety of all individuals involved. Here’s why these points are indispensable in emergency preparedness:

Key Benefits of Emergency Assembly Points:

Organized Evacuation: EAPs serve as predefined gathering spots where evacuees can assemble safely, allowing emergency responders to assess and manage the situation effectively.

Accountability and Communication: By directing individuals to specific EAPs, emergency coordinators can quickly verify the status and location of all evacuees, facilitating efficient communication and coordination.

Safety and Security: EAPs are strategically chosen to be safe distances away from potential hazards, minimizing risks to evacuees and enhancing overall security during crises.

Regulatory Compliance: Compliance with safety regulations and protocols is ensured by establishing and maintaining designated EAPs, demonstrating commitment to safety standards.

Implementing Effective EAPs:

Clear Signage and Accessibility: Ensure EAPs are well-marked and easily accessible from all areas of the premises.

Regular Drills and Training: Conduct regular evacuation drills and provide training to familiarize occupants with EAP locations and procedures.

Continuous Improvement: Periodically review and update EAPs based on changes in building layout, occupancy, or emergency response strategies.

Conclusion:

Investing in well-planned emergency assembly point is crucial for safeguarding lives during emergencies. By establishing clear protocols and maintaining designated EAPs, organizations enhance their ability to respond swiftly and effectively to unforeseen situations.

Explore our comprehensive guide to optimize your emergency preparedness efforts and ensure the safety of everyone in your facilities. Discover how strategically placed EAPs can make a significant difference in emergency response outcomes.

Soooo I have couple obessions just turning around in my mind like my pizza in a microwave

And these obsessions turn into crossovers mixed with OC's and in the weird mashup I have couple ideas:

First is Criminal Minds x Avengers Assemble (I have already started writing a post about it) cause I've been binge watching Criminal Minds on Disney+ and I am just yearning for character interactions between Reid and Sam

And then we have Genshin Impact × Avengers Assemble, specificly Fatui x Avengers Assemble

Recently I have fallen into a hyperfixation about Arlecchino and House of Hearth. Soo I have came up with an AU where the Fatui are super old and secret network with House of Hearth being one of the branches. And if you play Genshin Impact, you know that Arlecchino (also known as The Knave) is the person who is in charge of House of Hearth - an orphanage. So my mind straight up went to Natasha being in a friendly terms with The Knave of 21 century (not the Genshin canon Arlecchino)

I have so many crossover and OC ideas... I will probably end up drawing some of my OC's and write a prompt for my crossover.
