Conservation with @EnvAm. Live in Cali. Raised in Iowa. Sea sponges sneeze; who knew? Tweets are mine.

Oh, my. Learner Tien with a convincing win. https://t.co/vBJC9lhoCz

This is a cool crossing: Half for fish and half for terrestrial critters.

[Environment America @EnvAm]

High schoolers know we need more wildlife crossings. Meet Oliver, Aaron, and Eliana, who are here to tell you: Wildlife crossings save lives, both animals and drivers alike. #WildlifeCrossings #SaveWildlife

[Environment Georgia @EnvironmentGA]

When Georgia protected the gopher #tortoise, it also helped other species. https://t.co/VwxwLxfF9w

[Environment Colorado @EnvironmentCO]

Saving (adorable) black-footed ferrets by vaccinating prairie dogs (prey), which are susceptible to the plague. That's some clever, on-the-ground #wildlife conservation. https://t.co/kmhuI6e2tI

“How long does it take for mistreated land to return to health?” Ryan asked. Check out our story about bringing buffalo back to the high #plains of #SouthDakota. https://t.co/QWUJ3iG4f3

Had fun doing this interview

[Environment America @EnvAm]

What does #wildlife conservation look like? In #Oklahoma, it involves walking down dirt roads, looking for fox footprints. Check out the video. @OKWildlifeDept @fishwildlife #RecoveringWildlife https://t.co/n0TctdKtAB

[JD Schooley @DirtyDog650]

There’s an important, bipartisan bill protecting #native, #nongame fish and wildlife that is on deck for consideration by the US Senate. #RecoveringWildlife

PLEASE CALL YOUR SENATORS NOW and ask them to get it passed THIS YEAR!

Canyonlands National Park in Utah invites you to explore a wilderness of countless canyons and fantastically formed buttes carved by the Colorado River and its tributaries.

That wonderful video going around, of the teacher marveling at the immediate effects of his school and state going phone-free? He is jonathan Buchwalter, a social studies teacher in Alabama. I hope all teachers and state legislators will watch this:

Bravo to Alabama, where @governorkayivey signed into law the #FOCUSAct (Freeing Our Classrooms of Unnecessary Screens for Safety) in May. It’s a #belltobell #phonefreeschools law, requiring students to turn off and store their wireless communication devices during the instructional day, including hallways and lunch periods.

19 states so far have signed a phone-free schools act. What about your state?

[Environment America @EnvAm]

Good news for Arizona's elk, deer, mountain lions, black bears and car drivers: https://t.co/8tuLnR5NKd

[Steve Blackledge @SteveBlackledge]

Happy to have played a role in this. #CleanAir

[Environment America @EnvAm]

A step forward for all who breathe the air. https://t.co/JCgxqMlcgn

[Steve Blackledge @SteveBlackledge]

We need to defend #CleanEnergy tax credits, which are good for consumers and our air. Thanks to @RepDavidValadao for his leadership. @EnvCalifornia https://t.co/FYRK0xo4DH

Farmland provides wildlife habitat. #hunting #fishing https://t.co/h4vSNosOkc

[Steve Blackledge @SteveBlackledge]

I recently drove from Las Vegas to see Hoover Dam and went under a wildlife crossing. I was more excited than the teenagers with me.

[Environment America @EnvAm]

26,000 human injuries per year due to wildlife collisions. But there's a solution. https://t.co/LfM71aW5Ym

[Steve Blackledge @SteveBlackledge]

If Learner Tien had lost, he still might've been my (new) favorite US men's #tennis player. Then he went ahead and beat Medvedev. Wow!

[Environment Iowa @environmentiowa]

An Iowa teacher has made the prairie his classroom. Middle schoolers love it. https://t.co/gtVkpxEwGE

[Steve Blackledge @SteveBlackledge]

A simple, but really powerful solution. Let's fill the heartland with more
strips of prairie.

[Environment America @EnvAm]

Strips of prairie are good for the soul... soil that is. Ok, both. Check out the great story from @annenbcnews. https://t.co/xKeeIg8PPI

[Steve Blackledge @SteveBlackledge]

Love this, @EllyBWilson !

[Environment America @EnvAm]

This #wildlifecrossing is so cool, but then again, aren't they all? #Virginia Thanks, @RepDonBeyer. https://t.co/Hxh31WnLth

[Sammy Roth @Sammy_Roth]

All those natural gas export plants that fossil fuel companies are building on the Gulf Coast, claiming the gas is cleaner than coal? It's actually dirtier than coal, new research finds: https://t.co/OVTekkHCe0
