Greece tests eco-moorings to protect Mediterranean Posidonia seagrass.
New anchoring systems designed to protect Posidonia seagrass meadows – one of the Mediterranean’s most important yet fragile marine ecosystems – are being tested near Athens.
Posidonia seagrass is a key Mediterranean habitat that stores carbon, filters seawater and supports marine life.

For your 'Well, THIS is cool' story of the day - 🎵 The reefs are aliiiiiiive, with the sound of muuuuuuuusic ... 🎵 - or should be, anyway!
This has been successful for other species, especially in coral reefs, & researchers are learning transmitting the sounds of a healthy reef will attract baby #oysters as well - up to 17,000 more per square metre! 🤩
And if you're thinking 'Wait - oysters can hear?' - they talk about that too! 😄

#Climatechange is threatening a hidden #winter #ecosystem, with year-round consequences
Here under the white stuff, roots, small mammals, microbes, insects and even birds thrive. They use the #subnivium to make the most of the winter months — hunting, breeding, breaking down leaves and more. All those cold-weather activities help determine which plants and animals will thrive.

The habitat in the Upper Oldman is TOO important to risk. We cannot allow for the continued destruction of Critical Habitat, especially when it’s vital to the long-term recovery of bull trout and westslope cutthroat trout.
Tell the Minister of the Department of Fisheries and Oceans Canada to REVERSE this decision, and REVOKE the permit allowing for Critical Habitat destruction.

SFC also signs open letter to Keep Android Open
Quote
Software Freedom Conservancy joins many other organizations in signing an open letter to Google asking that Android continue to allow people to install what they want on their phones. Recent policy changes within Google will restrict installation options by requiring developers to register their legal names, adding new gatekeeping that can arbitrarily deny app installation or delete existing apps from your phone. F-Droid has already written about the importance of this change. This invasion of privacy of developers is not just an overreach of Google's authority over Android, but also jeopardizes developer safety and restricts user freedom

The more organizations join the better!
Individuals should also sign the letter!

I almost never use pixelfed.social/i/web/compose#… and white for photos, and I am not sure I can say why I prefer it here- maybe it's about the stillness between these two, in an otherwise frenetic environment. The elephants are almost always on the move, especially in the dry season, when the days are spent foraging and travelling to watering holes to drink and bathe. There is a safety risk to cuddle time, and the hugs don't last as long as this little guy would like. But, I'd say they are making the most of it. #Hwange #Zimbabwe #zebra #savannah #conservation #wildlifephotography #nature #naturephotography #natur #wildlife #natgeo #wildlifeconservation #ethicalwildlifephotography #natgeonature #natgeotravel #animalplanet #ecosystem #grassland #wildplanet #wildanimals #elphant #africanelephant #animalbabies #animalfamilies

Tropical forests don’t just store carbon — they generate rain. Through “flying rivers,” forest moisture travels far inland, supporting farms and cities.
Even small-scale deforestation can cut precipitation. The Amazon’s rainmaking service alone is valued in the tens of billions annually.

The Amazon’s most valuable export isn’t timber — it’s rain
Rainfall is often treated as a gift of geography — a function of latitude, oceans, and atmospheric circulation. A growing body of research suggests that in the tropics, it is also a product of ecosystems. Forests do not merely receive rain.Rhett Butler (Mongabay Environmental News)

Researchers found the thriving #ecosystem some 2.2 miles under the #GreenlandSea using a remote operated vehicle during the Ocean Census Arctic Deep #EXTREME24 expedition in 2024. Gas hydrate seeps are patches of seafloor that releases large amounts of gasses, such as methane; the newly discovered site is more than a mile deeper than any previously documented gas hydrate.

A more humane policy would start prioritizing non-lethal preventative measures, and no longer viewing wild #animals primarily as a nuisance in legislation and enforcement, but rather as co-inhabitants of #ecosystem s; this includes stricter rules for international meat trade, effective education instead of symbolic politics at the expense of wild #boars, and legal guidelines that include recreational hunting in the discussion as part of the problem.

Assessment of #wildlife populations for 2025/26 is dramatic.
Main drivers: #habitat destruction, overexploitation, #poaching, #pollution,, #climatecrisis. Absent from many reports is another factor – recreational hunting.
Recreational hunting exacerbates the pressure on already weakened #ecosystem s by eliminating predators, disturbing sensitive species during critical periods, and introducing new sources of pollution into the #environment through lead and shot.

Pumas returning to Patagonia have begun hunting mainland penguins that evolved without land predators. Scientists estimate that more than 7,000 adult penguins were killed in just four years, many of them left uneaten. While the losses are dramatic, models show that pumas alone are unlikely to wipe out the colony. Greater dangers come from poor breeding and low survival among young penguins.
