@EPHaury Thanks for writing! Among so many wonderful activities, Aggie was such a sustaining force for my dad. There's a new book coming out next month exonerating him that she helped support: "Rewriting Hisstory." Email's the easiest way to reach me: [email protected] Very best -- Tony

@EPHaury @EPHaury Hi, Eric - So good of you to send me that lovely photo. Thinking of you and Aggie, whose light shines ever more brightly. Let's stay in touch! Very best wishes, and I hope all is well.

@rcarabetta Hi, Ralph - Nice to hear from you! Last I heard - and that was some years ago - Henry Korman was living in the East Bay area. Best wishes to you - Tony

Just posted on "Rewilding Successes" @EcolCitizen: My story about MC Davis's 300-year campaign to save the Longleaf Pine Forest, signature ecosystem of US Southeast - a man with a compelling #biodiversity mega-vision of what life can be like in 2400 AD.

@tangem2009 Dear @tangem2009 - This is an inspiring and much needed initiative safeguarding the future of the world! Mega-Eco Projects are the sinews of the biosphere! Thanks, Elvis, for your energy and leadership, and please count on me to do anything to help it move forward.

[Tony Hiss @tonyhiss]

Elvis's inspiring presentation about the Great Green Wall was one of the highlights of this exciting UPenn first-ever global gathering of Mega-Eco Projects - landscape and #biodiversity and #biosphere preservation at the very largest scale! So glad I know you now, Elvis! #30x30

[Elvis Paul Nfor TANGEM @tangem2009]

I had the privilege of taking part and presenting the #greatgreenwall at the Global Mega Eco symposium at Univ of Pennsylvania, met the passionate Environmentalist @tonyhiss & many others. An Alliance for #GlobalMegaEco projects coming up.

[Tony Hiss @tonyhiss]

Very much looking forward to keynoting this first-ever get-together of some of the world's largest landscape and #biodiversity #preservation projects. Please join us if you're in Philly! #biosphere

@HeyRaChaCha So which WNYLC staffer is Mr. Blacktop???

@HeyRaChaCha And now I'm noticing the guy on the left looking at his watch -- time's a-wasting! Start your engines!

Baby sea otters to the rescue! Hunted almost to #extinction, these guys could restore eelgrass, kelp forests + #biodiversity to the CA coastline. Great @dino_grandoni piece explains how.

Baby sea otters are adorable. But they aren’t wanted everywhere. https://t.co/2SwRKaaz7h

Now any lawn, garden or balcony can become a mini-#bioreserve: Plant an endangered species and you'll help stave off the #extinction crisis! #biodiversity #30x30

This "huge, huge" problem needs everyone's help: #InvasiveAlienSpecies are leaking around the world, shrinking #biodiversity, weakening the #biosphere. So keep species home!

Invasive species cost humans $423bn each year and threaten world’s diversity https://t.co/Cuv8TXRDIl

"Funga": Get used to the word - it's time to embrace a third essential pillar of #biodiversity! Thinking bigger gets us closer to seeing the true structure of the #biosphere.

@so_you_know @NatGeo Hi, Annie! Hope you're well! Your question's a good one. A quick internet scan says mist netting used by bird banders causes no harm - if used properly! Warmly - Tony

The #veery somehow knows if #hurricane seasons will be fierce+flies south earlier! To thrive in a warmer world, let's gather all vital info fellow beings already live by!
