As you shop and prepare your #Thanksgiving meals, we'd like you to know a little more about the work behind the ingredients and the people doing that work to put food on our tables.

Here's a thread for everyone who wants to thank a farm worker this week.

Europe is not just experiencing heatwaves on land.

The Mediterranean Sea is experiencing a brutal marine heatwave this July, which will have devastating impacts on marine ecosystems while also enhancing heatwaves on land.

Water temperatures are as high as 6.2°C above normal!

Circular economy is how people in the past centuries survived and thrived and had beautiful homes. Did we become too lazy or ignorant?

A simple way to reverse desertification. All you need is a spade to dig holes. This project has reclaimed 60 000 hectares of land. Demo this in the classroom #climatechange #geography #geographyteacher #africa #farming Visit - https://t.co/xle2nLiGAw https://t.co/kqkoLAPvUq

They’ve built the nest. Now we wait to see if she’ll lay eggs.

Viewers can follow along for all the bird drama with the Bald Eagle Cam at the National Conservation Training Center in West Virginia and enjoy the tender moments around the nest. https://t.co/7CiADAsSS5

Does Lincoln or Lancaster test water or biosolids for PFAS /PFOS contamination? Can we get ahead of this, please?

[Black Sparrow Hawk 🦅 @CorbieCrow]

The farm’s previous owner had used PFAS-tainted sewage sludge, or “biosolids”, as fertilizer. Testing revealed their soil, drinking water, irrigation water, crops, chickens and blood were contaminated with high levels of the toxic chemicals. https://t.co/nOX7vla4Em

Happy first day of spring! Witness the change from winter to spring in under a minute. #NaturePBS

[Southern Heights FF @SHFoodForest]

This is very exciting! Lincoln is on this journey as well, thanks to the relentless efforts of many who got food security included in our climate action plan. These precedents help us learn. Are there other city's we should look at too?

Climate despair is real, but so is climate hope. This is not an easy moment, but it is our moment if we seize it together. https://t.co/mhIS1NFam9

Peatlands make up 3 percent of the earth’s landscape, yet absorb large amounts of carbon and harbor biodiversity. Although peat bogs and fens are under increasing environmental threat, efforts to protect and restore these ecosystems are gathering momentum. https://t.co/XqJ6K6Th9v
