FANTASTIC NEWS: Last night, the US Senate passed the Big Cat Public Safety Act (BCPSA), and it now heads to the President's desk!

Nearly 690,000 WWF activists, like you, have been supporting this bill for years.

Pearly Young, 77, was killed today in #Buffalo shopping for groceries.

For 25 years she ran a pantry where every Saturday she fed people in Central Park. Every. Saturday.
She loved singing, dancing, & being with family.

She was mother, grandma, & missionary. Gone too soon 🕊

⚡️The Kremlin says the DNR and LNR have asked Putin to “help beat back the aggression of the Ukrainian armed forces to avoid victims among the civilian population and a humanitarian catastrophe in the Donbas”, per Russian wires.

This could be it.

.@SciDiplomacyUSA please advocate for a legally binding agreement against plastic pollution at UNEA5.2

This was January 6th.
This is not “legitimate political discourse.”

Why are some people worried about unknown long term side-effects of the vaccine but not the unknown long term side-effects of a virus?

I’ve seen a lot of Covid in the ER recently.

With so many people getting infected recently, some folks may wonder what’s the point of getting vaccinated at all?

And is there really any value to a booster dose if I’ve had two Pfizer/Moderna or a shot of J&J?

My observations: 🧵

OK, now we’re going to split off into Zoom breakout pairings where we’ll ask you to share the deepest emotional trauma from your past with a 24-year-old admin from Finance.

#COP26 stories: I was in a room full of Ministers and heads of COP - all saying about the importance of Indigenous People 👍🏽 - and nobody passed the mic to the ONLY indigenous in the room 🤡 - “commitments” - and I still believe I trust the planet 🤡🤡

With the US Congress debating climate action legislation and COP26 days away, WWF activists are mobilizing to call on world leaders to act. Sign our letter and it'll be sent to US leaders! https://t.co/sJkCr7oDwj

We must seize the opportunity at COP26 to strengthen national climate plans. Join me in telling US leadership to take climate action now. https://t.co/xua4RvrBD0 via @wwf_act

Is the reason we all have to go back to offices because not doing so would initiate a commercial real estate collapse?

[Lydia Jennings, Ph.D. @1NativeSoilNerd]

My mentor has been reminding me to ask about honorariums for guest lectures, which I often forget. I like these answers, so wanted to share.

Gotta remember our value, especially those working to diversify & decolonize!

Day 1 of our Twitter roundtable discussing WWF’s priorities for the new Administration. We are joined by @will_gartshore to discuss two of the biggest environmental challenges we face: climate change and global biodiversity loss.

[WWF-US Action Team @wwf_act]

We’re finding ourselves in the middle of three raging crises: a deadly global pandemic, worsening climate change, and intense loss of nature and biodiversity. All three of these threaten our communities, and all three have a common thread at their core: environmental degradation.
