In São Tomé, 60% of people rely on two coastal roads to reach jobs, markets & essential services.

Flooding threatens those livelihoods—but nature‑based solutions are helping keep roads open & livelihoods protected.

Important to note that the just published 'Global Justice Report', which 'sets out a vision for planetary survival and provides an alternative to climate breakdown, political extremism and economic tensions, concludes that "the share of nuclear power in electricity generation falls by around one third by 2050, given well-documented concerns around safety and waste disposal, with the difference compensated for by a faster expansion of renewable sources, in line with the observed accelerated decline in renewables costs."

Most butterfly gardens are built to feed butterflies. The good ones are designed to make more butterflies.

A yard full of nectar flowers is a snack bar for the adults, and that's a fine thing to offer. But flowers alone make a rest stop, not a home. A few other pieces turn it into the real thing.

The big one is host plants. Caterpillars don't drink nectar, and most won't eat just any leaf. Monarch caterpillars need milkweed; black swallowtails want dill, parsley, or fennel. Without the specific plant a species lays its eggs on, your garden raises no butterflies of its own.

Then the small stuff. A flat rock or two in full sun gives them somewhere to bask, since a butterfly can't fly until the sun has warmed its wings. A shallow dish of wet sand lets them "puddle," pulling up the salts and minerals nectar doesn't provide. A wind-sheltered corner, with a few stems and leaves left standing through winter, gives them places to rest and overwinter.

And no spray, not even the organic kind, since most of it kills caterpillars just as readily as the pests.

This is how your butterfly garden stops being a place they pass through and starts being a place they come from.

@MazzucatoM @howtoacademy @MatthewdAncona @smitf_london Loving this new compass! 🌱 Designing economics for the common good could drive real investment in renewables and resilient food supply chains. Innovation with purpose! 🌍🌾

[Leslie Forest @LForestSource]

@MazzucatoM Love this!! Innovation in execution is what I live for. Time to turn climate ambition into resilient systems. Let's make it happen! 🌱⚡️🌍

[Leslie Forest @LForestSource]

Loving this! I live for innovation, but our ecosystems and water aren't infinite. Conservation first! 🌱💧

[Food & Water Watch @foodandwater]

The fight for a data center moratorium has real momentum, so let's get involved and keep building power! Next Thursday, we're joining an amazing coalition of climate organizations to stop this exploitative industry at every level. See you there! https://t.co/NAvC6v7GYF

Our cities need a shift from car-centric designs to a "people-first" approach. On the occasion of #WorldBicycleDay, my latest piece in @DeccanHerald discusses why India must take cycling seriously to build safer, healthier, and climate-resilient mobility and urban spaces.

We need a #VisionZero approach that protects vulnerable road users and prioritizes cycling infrastructure over endless flyovers. Designing for cyclists means designing safer cities for women, children, and everyone.

How do farmers grow food while making the most of every drop of water?

Western Growers recently toured the Salinas Valley with Cultivate California to learn how growers are using technology, innovation and water recycling to improve water efficiency while maintaining a reliable food supply.

Thank you to the farmers, water leaders and influencers who joined us and offered a firsthand look at agricultural water stewardship in action.

4,000,000 kg per month. This is not traditional farming it’s a full controlled system. In high-tech greenhouses, every plant is precisely managed and every step is optimized for maximum yield & consistency. From growth to harvest, everything is data-driven,efficient, and scalable

[Leslie Forest @LForestSource]

@g14589273 @SRuhle @MSNOWNews @CNN My community shouldn't pay higher power and water bills for data centers without renewable backup 🌞🌍 Let's build resilient infrastructure that protects habitats and people! 🌱💚

Love how tech and capital scaled US oil production! 🛢️🚀 Incredible. But I'm geeking out over the next leap in 24/7 clean infrastructure. The UAE's Masdar-EWEC project is setting that pace! 🌞🌍

[Thefynprint @thefynprint]

We asked a simple question:

Which country produces the most oil in the world?

Most people answered: the USA.
And they were right.

But what’s more interesting is why the USA became the world’s largest oil producer.

Not because it suddenly discovered more oil than everyone else.

But because of:
• Technology
• Capital markets
• Innovation
• Infrastructure
• And the ability to scale faster than the rest of the world

That’s the bigger investing lesson.

The US economy today is far more than just Big Tech.
It’s an energy powerhouse, an AI leader, and one of the deepest capital markets in the world.

And understanding these shifts matters if you’re building long-term wealth.

That’s exactly what we’ll discuss in our upcoming Chennai meetup with @ActusDei :
• Why global diversification matters
• How global macro trends shape investing opportunities
• Common misconceptions investors still carry
• How Indian investors can think beyond one market and one currency

Eric tackled a 2-mile fence problem in just 90 seconds using a bungee cord.

No sprays or underground wires—just a portable solar charger, t-post, ground rod, and drill for quick paddock setup.
