As a kid in Sierra Leone I fished in the creek near home, caught snakes in forest. That feeling has never left me. Today I’m joining @NYClimEx as CEO bringing science, cities, businesses together to move climate solutions faster. Can’t wait to start!
Incomparable Jane. filmed w her #gombe, #SriLanka. Her lessons for #conservation. 1. Tell stories unapologetically . 2. Don’t point fingers (we are part of the problem). 3. Uplift thru hope, optimism. Condolences to team @JaneGoodallInst
After 11 years and over 8 as CEO, my time at @ConservationOrg has ended. I’m so proud of what we’ve achieved together, and deeply grateful to the extraordinary people I’ve worked alongside. Wishing the team every success as they carry the work forward.

Kenya is leading from the front in climate action and environmental conservation efforts because the effects of climate change are no longer matters of conjecture; they are an existential threat to humanity.
Consequently, Kenya is working with State and non-State partners across the world to mitigate these effects.
Met Conservation International CEO M Sanjayan, State House Nairobi. The organisation has opened the Africa regional headquarters in Nairobi in recognition of our country's leadership role in climate action and conservation.
Tonight’s the night!

There aren’t many truisms in this world but the fact that nature tomorrow will be more valuable than it is today is one of them.
A great conversation with @mikewaltercgtn 👇
I don't really care if people "believe" in climate change or not. I want them to look at the data and do something about it.
We can debate what we do, but not that we're facing a major problem.
Great convo with @CFraserBBC today about #HurricaneMilton.
On my recent appearance on @SkyNews I emphasized that we—and the new UK Labour government—have a chance to double down on a global unifier: nature.
No one says no to nature. When nations can agree on little else, nature is the one issue that resonates. https://t.co/IHhlKpnKKD
On #WorldOceansDay instead of counting wins and losses I'd like to share a thought my friend @jacindaardern shared with me: the right bias to have is an expectation bias.
For the sake of our ocean, we can always do more and do it better. Myself and @ConservationOrg included.
Get a look up close as @DrSteveSimpson and Dr. Peter Harrison of @SCU_Australia show the intricacies of how corals spawn and the science behind coral IVF. https://t.co/M7v8gDakU3
Having witnessed a coral spawning event on camera for @PBS Changing Planet, I'll say that anticipating when the mood strikes the corals is a complicated and fascinating calculation.
Thanks for highlighting this in today's newsletter @alisonmsnyder. https://t.co/pWs7u7i3rW
Most people may not be aware but human life is made possible by the abundance of species working to keep our planet healthy.
When we lose nature, we lose our ability to thrive.
On #BiodiversityDay and beyond we must redouble our efforts to stop and reverse biodiversity loss.
1/4 On this #BiodiversityDay, Conservation International, Campaign for Nature and other international organizations have joined together to launch the "$20bn x 25 for Nature" campaign.

This summer, we and billions of other people in places like India, West Africa, Central Europe, and even sometimes North America will experience this upper limit imposed by climate change with tragic consequences for life, health, and productivity.
