Exciting news! Our lab just published a new article in Biological Conservation https://t.co/zIX3gPoA26 This study sheds light on the impacts of the fast deployment of Renewable Energy Sources in roadless areas and suggest new strategies for conservation. #conservation #research

[BCL_GR @gr_conservation]

We did it! We submitted a proposal to the Green Fund to develop our #butterfly scheme apollo with a mobile app, an interactive website and seminars for volunteers to name a few. If we are approved it will be a model project as it incorporates decision making on a democratic basis
