🌿 On #WorldWetlandsDay, let's celebrate the invaluable role of wetlands in sustaining life. Conserving wetlands is essential not only for people’s ecological health but also for the many benefits they provide to human societies ensuring a harmonious coexistence with nature.

I know I definitely needed to see this today :)

[FAO Forestry @FAOForestry]

From cutting-edge drone and satellite technology for forest monitoring, to sustainable substitutes derived from trees for plastics, building materials & fabrics, innovation can help us
✅ restore
✅ protect
✅ manage, &
✅ use our forests sustainably.

You’ve heard the word ‘biodiversity’ but do you know what it means for us and the planet? 🌎

Sir #DavidAttenborough explains why #biodiversity is crucial for all life on Earth. #ShareOurPlanet

[EnviroTrain @ETEnviroTrain]

Weekly meeting decided to advance production of our #sustainable #remediation short course! This is an important one for anyone working in Contaminated Land Management #CLM and we at @ETEnviroTrain can't wait to let it loose :) https://t.co/wEbQ0H44tV

From filtering water to minimizing flooding, the mighty mangrove is not just beautiful - it's a true #naturebasedsolution for managing environmental issues. Go #Mangroves! 😃

[Science girl @sciencegirl]

there is a place in South America where 275 waterfalls cascade down together, the largest waterfall system in the world

About 13,000 cubic metres per second pours over its edges, that’s 5 Olympic sized pools every single second!

This is Iguazu Falls

@ETEnviroTrain has hit @X! We're excited to be venturing out into new territory! Follow to learn more about our upcoming course launches featuring #GIS for #environmental management, #biodiversity conservation, urban #permaculture, and more!

[UN Biodiversity @UNBiodiversity]

The #biodiversity crisis is largely undervalued. Today, most of our attention is focused on climate change.

Yet these crises are interrelated and must be addressed together.

It's time we talk about biodiversity, and it begins through education.
