Chernobyl's nuclear power plant has been turned into a #solar farm using the evacuated zone to generate #cleanenergy.

We have the solutions, let's implement them. #ActOnClimate

And only 4% of placentas were analysed. What more will it take for people to realise how much of a problem #plastic is? #microplastic @guardian

Few scientists are trained in how to write a literature review — or in what constitutes an excellent one. Nature asked editors and working scientists with well-cited reviews for their tips. https://t.co/hDOeIRPu0N

The EBE seminar talk given by Dr. Scarponi made the connection between the stress that intensive fishing causes to shark species and how this, in turn, increases their chances of becoming bycatch. Alarming yet interesting seminar talk... #EBE2020

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

Great seminar! #EBE2020

[Lyric Palmer @PalmerLyric]

Tom Collett's research also found that larger bees restrict their learning to flowers with high levels of sucrose, whereas smaller bees showed no preference. This is likely to be because small bees don't travel as far so are more opportunistic; foraging on whatever is available.

Nature-based solutions are the way forward in mitigating the early effects of climate change and protecting local economies. #EBE2020

[UN-Water @UN_Water]

Nature-based solutions can help feed us, sustain our livelihoods, provide energy and safeguard our future.

It's a #cozy day. 😴

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

Can we divert from our business as usual models? #EBE2020

[Climate Reality @ClimateReality]

The world’s largest economies need to do so much better. https://t.co/LyJlR7LYdj

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

Only a small part of the financial resources that have been brought to the table would suffice to ensure a significant reduction in our carbon emissions! Let’s be accountable #EBE2020 #ClimateAction #GlobalWarming #Covid_19

[Geoffrey Lean @GeoffreyLean]

If the Covid stimulus money is spent in a climate-friendly way we can limit temperature rise to 2 degrees and will have a fighting chance of 1.5 degrees @andersen_inger ED if @UNEP tells excellent Al Jazeera programme. https://t.co/R5fc9DV0xk via @AJEnglish

Fascinating study shows that coral can in fact survive extreme temperature spikes! The findings of this study give us new hope for the safety of our coral reefs and the fisheries that depend on them. #EBE2020 #coral #reefs

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

The EBE seminar talk given by @DamienFarine help me understand how complex animal societies really are and that shared decision-making within these societies is in fact widespread! #EBE2020

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

The EBE seminar given by @BethBees helped me understand the threats that lowland heath habitats face in the UK as well as giving good insights on how to change people behavior to minimize human disturbance! #EBE2020

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

Some reasons to be optimistic going forward! #EBE2020

[Chris Packham @ChrisGPackham]

As @BorisJohnson told world leaders ‘We can't afford to dither and delay because biodiversity loss is happening today’ and promised to protect 30% of our land by 2030 , HS2 destroyed Little Lyntus and Fulfen ancient Woodlands and smashed up Calvert Jubilee Nature Reserve .

[Izzy Duggan @DugganIzzy]

The wildlife photographer of the year always produces some amazing photographs, which show the diversity and beauty of species around the world! #photography #wildlifephotography #nature #Awareness #conservation #2020EBE #TwitterNatureCommunity https://t.co/cInx0bOHN1

[Meline Klopfenstein @MelineKlopfens1]

Documentaries are a great way to learn about conservation! This one shows once again that conservation today is as much about wildlife as it is about human #conservation #EBE2020

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

This shows the importance of risk reduction and planning when it comes to reducing the threats of wildfires! #EBE2020 #Madagascar #Lemurs #Fire

[IUCN Save Our Species @IUCNsos]

Thanks to the efforts of local heroes, 12 hectares worth of fires have been extinguished and another 23’000 hectares have been spared from bushfires in Madagascar, protecting the natural habitat of various threatened lemur species 🌿 @FANAMBY

[Lucien Pirot @LucienPirot]

One more reason to support beaver reintroduction in the UK. With their dams they create unique habitats for amphibian species such as frogs and salamanders! #EBE2020 #reintroduction #beavers #amphibians

Honeybees in Vietnam have been observed using animal dung to protect the entrance of their nest from giant hornets. This is the first documented use of tools by honeybees 🐝! #EBE2020 #honeybee

One step closer to unveiling the origin of flight! #EBE2020 #Flight #paleontology
