1. Thai tiger numbers swell as prey populations stabilize in western forests

“The tiger population density in a series of protected areas in western Thailand has more than doubled over the past two decades, according to new survey data. […] The most recent year of surveys, which concluded in November 2023, photographed 94 individual tigers, up from 75 individuals in the previous year, and from fewer than 40 in 2007. […] A total of 291 individual tigers older than 1 year were recorded, as well as 67 cubs younger than 1 year.”

2. Work starts to rewild former cattle farm

“Ecologists have started work to turn a former livestock farm into a nature reserve [… which] will become a "mosaic of habitats" for insects, birds and mammals. [… R]ewilding farmland could benefit food security locally by encouraging pollinators, improving soil health and soaking up flood water. [… “N]ature restoration doesn't preclude food production. We want to address [food security] by using nature-based solutions."”

3. Harnessing ‘invisible forests in plain view’ to reforest the world

“[… T]he degraded land contained numerous such stumps with intact root systems capable of regenerating themselves, plus millions of tree seeds hidden in the soil, which farmers could simply encourage to grow and reforest the landscape[….] Today, the technique of letting trees resprout and protecting their growth from livestock and wildlife [… has] massive potential to help tackle biodiversity loss and food insecurity through resilient agroforestry systems. [… The UN’s] reported solution includes investing in land restoration, “nature-positive” food production, and rewilding, which could return between $7 and $30 for every dollar spent.”

4. California bars school districts from outing LGBTQ+ kids to their parents

“Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the SAFETY Act today – a bill that prohibits the forced outing of transgender and gay students, making California the first state to explicitly prohibit school districts from doing so. […] Matt Adams, a head of department at a West London state school, told PinkNews at the time: “Teachers and schools do not have all the information about every child’s home environment and instead of supporting a pupil to be themselves in school, we could be putting them at risk of harm.””

5. 85% of new electricity built in 2023 came from renewables

“Electricity supplied by renewables, like hydropower, solar, and wind, has increased gradually over the past few decades — but rapidly in recent years. [… C]lean energy now makes up around 43 percent of global electricity capacity. In terms of generation — the actual power produced by energy sources — renewables were responsible for 30 percent of electricity production last year. […] Along with the rise of renewable sources has come a slowdown in construction of non-renewable power plants as well as a move to decommission more fossil fuel facilities.”

6. Deadly cobra bites to "drastically reduce" as scientists discover new antivenom

“After successful human trials, the snake venom antidote could be rolled out relatively quickly to become a "cheap, safe and effective drug for treating cobra bites" and saving lives around the globe, say scientists. Scientists have found that a commonly used blood thinner known as heparin can be repurposed as an inexpensive antidote for cobra venom. […] Using CRISPR gene-editing technology […] they successfully repurposed heparin, proving that the common blood thinner can stop the necrosis caused by cobra bites.”

7. FruitFlow: a new citizen science initiative unlocks orchard secrets

“"FruitWatch" has significantly refined phenological models by integrating extensive citizen-sourced data, which spans a wider geographical area than traditional methods. These enhanced models offer growers precise, location-specific predictions, essential for optimizing agricultural planning and interventions. […] By improving the accuracy of phenological models, farmers can better align their operations with natural biological cycles, enhancing both yield and quality.”

8. July 4th Means Freedom for Humpback Whale Near Valdez, Alaska

“The NOAA Fisheries Alaska Marine Mammal Stranding Hotline received numerous reports late afternoon on July 3. A young humpback whale was entangled in the middle of the Port of Valdez[….] “The success of this mission was due to the support of the community, as they were the foundation of the effort,” said Moran. [… Members of the community] were able to fill the critical role of acting as first responders to a marine mammal emergency. “Calling in these reports is extremely valuable as it allows us to respond when safe and appropriate, and also helps us gain information on various threats affecting the animals,” said Lyman.”

9. Elephants Receive First of Its Kind Vaccine

“Elephant endotheliotropic herpesvirus is the leading cause of death for Asian elephants (Elephas maximus) born in facilities in North America and also causes calf deaths in the wild in Asia. A 40-year-old female received the new mRNA vaccine, which is expected to help the animal boost immunity[….]”

10. Conservation partners and Indigenous communities working together to restore forests in Guatemala

“The K’iche have successfully managed their natural resources for centuries using their traditional governing body and ancestral knowledge. As a result, Totonicapán is home to Guatemala’s largest remaining stand of conifer forest. […] EcoLogic has spearheaded a large-scale forest restoration project at Totonicapán, where 13 greenhouses now hold about 16,000 plants apiece, including native cypresses, pines, firs, and alders. […] The process begins each November when community members gather seeds. These seeds then go into planters that include upcycled coconut fibers and mycorrhizal fungi, which help kickstart fertilization. When the plantings reach about 12 inches, they’re ready for distribution.”

"Enviornmental campaigners have welcomed Labour’s decision to lift the Tories’ ban on new onshore wind developments.

In one of the new government’s first acts, the department for energy and net zero confirmed that future projects will be treated in the same way as other planning applications.

Energy secretary Ed Miliband said: “The onshore wind ban has been in place for more than nine years. We’ve been in government 72 hours, we’ve lifted it.

“That’s the pace we’re going to move at. We’ve got to become a clean energy superpower for energy independence, to cut bills, to create good jobs and tackle the climate crisis. We’re getting on with it.”

“By harnessing the country’s vast renewable power potential, the new government is staking its claim as a global leader in the green energy transition.”

Chancellor Rachel Reeves confirmed the change as she also announced major changes to the planning system to allow the building of more homes as part of the government’s moves to boost economic growth."

Help the Said Family - ONLY 2% FUNDED 🇵🇸🐱🍉

My name is Eslam, and I am a 16-year-old from Gaza. I am reaching out to you during a time of profound hardship, as my family and I are currently displaced in Khan Yunis due to the ongoing conflict. The violence has upended our lives, making it nearly impossible for me to continue my high school education and leaving us struggling to find a sense of normalcy.


This is my brother Mohammed, a renewable energy engineer who graduated just days before the war started. He dreams of continuing his education with a master's degree in Malaysia. My other brother, Ahmed, is in his final year studying information technology, but the war has interrupted his studies. He hopes to leave the country to finish his education abroad.

My sister, Insam, also a renewable energy engineer, lost her job because of the war and now wants to move abroad to find new opportunities and rebuild her life.

My father suffers from chronic diabetes, and we can’t find the necessary medication for him, which makes me fear losing him at any moment. My mother has high blood pressure, and we struggle to provide her with the medicine she needs. She also requires a blood pressure monitor, but we have no money to buy one. On top of that, we’re dealing with skin conditions caused by poor hygiene and malnutrition.

In the midst of this chaos, we encountered Peace, a brave cat who has become a symbol of hope for our family. We rescued her from a displacement camp after she emerged from the rubble of her former home, where her owners tragically lost their lives. Adopting Peace was not just an act of kindness; it was a step toward healing for both her and us.


However, Peace is suffering from severe psychological trauma. The sounds of war have left her frightened and anxious, and she needs regular veterinary care to help her cope. Unfortunately, obtaining such care is increasingly challenging in our current situation. The local veterinary clinics are overwhelmed, and the cost of supplies for her care has skyrocketed, making it difficult for us to provide the essentials she requires.


We also face difficulties in ensuring that Peace has enough nutritious food and litter. The ongoing conflict has led to soaring prices for basic necessities, leaving families like ours struggling to make ends meet. Every day is a challenge, and while we do our best to care for her, our limited resources often make it feel impossible. It breaks my heart to see her suffer, and I often wonder what more we could do to help her heal.

Despite these challenges, Peace has shown incredible resilience. When we first brought her home, she was terrified and hesitant. It took time for her to trust us, but slowly, she began to find comfort in our presence. There were moments when she would curl up beside me, purring softly, and for those brief instances, the weight of the world felt a little lighter.

We are reaching out to you for support to ensure that Peace receives the care she so desperately needs. Your contributions can help us provide her with the medical attention required to address her trauma, as well as the food and supplies essential for her well-being.
Imagine a life for Peace where she can roam freely, play, and feel secure. Your kindness can make this possible. Supporting her means standing with us in our struggle and recognizing that love and compassion can flourish even amid devastation.
Every act of kindness counts. Your support, no matter how small, can create ripples of change. We understand that many of you may be facing your own struggles, but sharing our story can help raise awareness and garner support for Peace and our family.

As of 12/12/24, they are only at $1020 of their goal of $54.5k USD

This is only 2%‼️

I am sharing this on behalf of my dear friend Eslam, she needs to replace her phone urgently. You can follow her on instagram, X and find out more from the linktree above

I'm convinced people who don't trust nuclear energy don't actual know anything about it beyond chernobyl

Nuclear plants have a ridiculous amount of safety precautions and procedures and nuclear is cleaner than fossil fuels even when you include nuclear waste.

And the two big disasters, Chernobyl and Fukushima both had factors other than the reactor that went wrong (chernobyl had workers being told to ignore the computers which said to shut down the reactor and Fukushima had both and earthquake and thusnami) and safety precautions were put in place to stop accidents in the same manner from happening

Nuclear is safe.
