#NeurodiversityCelebrationWeek is a worldwide initiative that challenges stereotypes and misconceptions about neurological differences.
Together let’s change the narrative to understand, accept, and celebrate neurodiversity! #NeurodiversityWeek#NCW#ThisIsND
Please don't spray or over-mow the dandelions! They support over 50 insect species, and are often a lifeline for bees, butterflies and hoverflies 🐝

Forests are more than just wood and are important for the water balance. The groundwater beneath a forest is clean, oxygen-rich and excellent for producing drinking water. That is why forests are particularly often also water protection areas.💚🌱☘️🌿🌳🌲🍀💚
Friendly reminder
I am a tree
- I cool the earth
- I store CO2
- I protect the soil
- I take care of the water table
- I am the home of many animals
- I produce oxygen
- I clean the air and water
Please make sure that my friends become more, not less.💚🌱☘️🌿🌳🌲🍀💚

Either we act now to end economic growth, save what is left of nature and restore what has been lost to live with nature and possibly survive or continue with business as usual where economic growth will not only end abruptly but the conditions for sustaining life itself will end
Reflect, a small tree of only about 20 m in height produces about 10,000 l of oxygen/day. That is enough for 5 to 10 people, who each need 500 to 2,000 l of oxygen/day. Think about and take a deep breath💚🌱☘️🌿🌳🌲🍀💚
Deep-Sea Currents are slowing
Antarctic ice shelf melt releasing huge amounts freshwater into sea
This influx causes polar water to become less salty less dense less apt to sink
This will collapse marine life, strengthen cyclones, smothering heat waves

How humans derailed the Earth’s climate in just 160 years
For 11,500 years, atmospheric CO2 concentrations hovered around 280 ppm (the preindustrial “normal”)
Now its double that
Industrial societies burnt about 25% of Earth’s fossil fuels within 160 years

Since the 1920s, scientists have been studying a special social characteristic of trees: their crowns politely keep their distance in the canopy. Depending on the species, they only spread their canopy so far that they don´t come into conflict with the neighbors.💚🌱☘️🌿🌲🌳🍀💚
