According to IPBES, human actions have significantly altered 75% of the Earth’s land surface, including 85% of wetland areas. How can we all be the #Generationrestoration? *Use purchasing power to support only brands that sustainably source materials *Collect kitchen waste to use as compost in gardens or balconies or contribute to composting schemes. *Learn about sustainable agriculture practices that preserve soil health, retain water and minimize erosion. *Adopt ecosystem-based approaches for pest control in gardens. *Pressure elected officials at all levels of the government to enact policies that support ecosystem restoration and conservation. *Learn more about how blue ecosystems underpin human well-being and how one-quarter of all marine life is fostered in coral reefs. *Volunteer time and labour and contribute to rehabilitating degraded landscapes and ecosystems.

Soil, water and forests are key driver of our ecosystem. We want to give clean air, pure water and safe food to our children, then we must conserve our natural resources. Natural resources should be in our heart not in mind. Its conservation is our culture and social duty not professional role. We all can contribute to save our god gift. Adopting sustainable agricultural practices, judicial use of water and, conservation of forests through increasing area under afforestation, stop further industrialisation in forest land, restoration of mangrove in coastal areas etc. are interventions needed. #naturalresources #conservationefforts

let what you do limit you from doing what you love planting neem tree for a better tomorrow, the trees offer a wide range of environmental benefits, making them a valuable asset to communities and the environment. 1. Air purification: Neem trees act as natural air purifiers by absorbing carbon dioxide and releasing oxygen, contributing to cleaner air and reduced pollution. 2. Soil improvement: Neem trees have deep roots that help prevent soil erosion and improve soil fertility by fixing nitrogen in the soil. 3. Biodiversity support: Neem trees provide habitats for various birds, insects, and wildlife, contributing to the overall biodiversity of ecosystems. 4. Sustainable resource: Various parts of the neem tree, such as leaves, seeds, bark, and wood, can be used sustainably for various purposes, promoting environmental conservation. #oganicfarmig. #fightagainstclimatechange

We depend on biodiversity in many ways and must work together to conserve it. At Dublin Bus, we are keen to help biodiversity and have implemented several key projects to help protect our local ecosystems. Last year, we developed a rainwater harvesting system in our Summerhill Depot. It uses approximately 6.1 million litres of water to wash our buses annually (based on 2021 figures). This system was installed in the depot to reduce the use of mains water, decreasing pressure on Dublin’s water supply and reducing surface water runoff. Rainwater is captured from the roof, filtered into tanks, treated, and pumped into the bus wash system. We expect the rainwater harvesting system to save an estimated 3 million litres annually. #DublinBus #Biodiversity #PublicTransport

Soil is the unsung hero of ecological restoration projects! Did you know that it provides habitat for a vast array of organisms, stores #carbon, improves #water quality, and supports plant growth? That's why improving soil health is often the first step in a successful restoration project. In fact, soil works are a main activity in ecological restoration. Here are some specific soil-related activities that can be part of an ecological restoration project: amending soil with compost or other organic matter, increasing soil organic matter content, controlling erosion, improving drainage, and restoring soil microbial communities. By prioritizing soil health, we can help restore degraded landscapes, mitigate climate change, and protect water quality. Let's not overlook the foundation of healthy ecosystems and give soil the attention it deserves in our restoration efforts. #ecologicalrestoration #soilhealth #sustainability #carbon #waterquality

This week, the Queensland Government allocated $200 million to support the future of the timber industry through the Queensland Sustainable Timber Industry Framework. Timber production plays a vital role in addressing key challenges in Queensland, such as housing supply and working towards our emissions reduction target of 75% by 2035. Selecting appropriate timber sources to meet the increasing market demand in Queensland is of utmost importance. Queensland boasts rich biodiversity, hosting a significant portion of Australia's native mammals, birds, reptiles, frogs, and plant species. However, it is concerning that many of these species are currently under threat. Balancing the protection of our native forests with the need to sustain our timber supply is crucial. Preserving our unique biodiversity while ensuring a sustainable timber industry is essential for the future of Queensland. #QueenslandGovernment #TimberIndustry #Sustainability #Biodiversity #ProtectOurForests Read the Terms of Reference here: https://lnkd.in/gZVfWjuu

Take a look at my article about planting trees!!! #snsinstitutions #snsdesignthinkers #designthinking #plantingtrees Planting trees is a commendable way to contribute to environmental growth. Consider selecting trees that are well-suited to your region, as they can enhance biodiversity, improve air quality, and offer various ecological benefits. Regular maintenance and watering are essential for their successful growth.
