🌴🌳🌲When we plant the right trees in the right places, we support a cooler, greener and healthier future.

🌆 As populations grow in cities, urban trees provide many environmental and social benefits, including mitigating #ClimateChange and increasing #biodiversity.

So excited of my camera trap images of #Lynx in the Swiss Jura that on #WorldWildlifeDay2023 I post them again
This playful family shows how conservation efforts can bring back #wildlife locally driven to #extinction

A great story of #rewilding & hope for a #naturepositive world

Take a minute to think about our oceans...

🌊Oceans act as the largest carbon sink in the 🌍
🌊Oceans host 80% of life on the 🌍
🌊Oceans provide half of the 🌍’s oxygen

The health of our oceans affects us all.

@FredKrupp Cc @DollyParton who’s a science-focused person (her role as a funder of Moderna-related research at @VanderbiltU is a testament to that commitment IMO)
