National Freshwater conservation and restoration challenges ON THE RISE🌅 This week in the #USA, the The White House convened "state, Tribal, and local leaders" from across the country for a #Water Summit 💧 The Administration announced a new national goal and partnership to #conserve and #restore #freshwater resources through the new America the Beautiful Freshwater Challenge. https://lnkd.in/dpJpKH6S The goal? To protect, restore, and reconnect 8 million acres of #wetlands and 100,000 miles of #rivers and streams. This bold initiative is a crucial step toward safeguarding our freshwater ecosystems for current and future generations. The call to states, cities, communities, and key stakeholders is to advance their policies and strategies for conserving and restoring freshwater systems, including policies that encourage private investment for #nature (With safeguards in place 🙏). Over 100 inaugural members have already pledged their support. 💧

"It's not that we want to get rid of all the infrastructure but we need to rethink, reimagine, & re-operate that infrastructure so that it actually produces benefits that make sense in the 21st Century," says CalTrout Senior Scientist Jacob Katz with KRCR News Channel 7. In our latest issue of The Current we highlight the recent canal breach and debris flow incident at Butte Creek and how we can invest in nature-based solutions for more resilient watersheds for fish and people. https://lnkd.in/d4zFwPQM

Water sustains life, let's pledge to conserve it every day. Today, let's honor the essence of life - water, and commit to its preservation. #water #waterday #savewater #worldwaterday #digitalmarketing #seoservices #webdevelopment #startupbusiness #waterblog

Ecosystem #restoration improves resilience to #climatechange, safeguards #biodiversity, enables #foodsecurity, and protests #water. An impressive list of over 100 groups including states, cities, tribes, and NGOs are advancing their own policies and strategies for conserving and restoring America’s #freshwater systems. Freshwater is 1% of the earth and home to 10% of the species. The southeast US is biodiversity hotspot. https://lnkd.in/eqhqCi9z

California RCDs are making substantial progress on prescribed burns! … Getting beneficial fire to scale is a critical aspect of California’s Wildfire & Forest Resilience Action Plan. In counties throughout California, Regional Conservation Districts are making a significant impact, getting good fire on the ground, and showing the way on best practices for safe, effective prescribed burns. … Check out a few recent highlights (from Yolo, Trinity, Butte, and Placer counties), as favorable fall and winter conditions have enabled California’s Resource Conservation Districts to make significant progress on prescribed burns. >> https://lnkd.in/ghR7NEtQ … Trinity County Resource Conservation District Butte County Resource Conservation District Placer Resource Conservation District #YoloRCD … #WildfireTaskForce #TaskForceProgress #PrescribedBurn #BeneficialFire

ASFPM is proud to be an inaugural member of the America the Beautiful Freshwater Challenge: A Partnership to Conserve and Restore America’s Rivers, Lakes, Streams, and Wetlands. Through this initiative, the Administration has set national goals to rebuild our nation’s wetlands and freshwater resources: 1) Reconnect, restore, and protect 8 million acres of wetlands by 2030, with an emphasis on forested, vegetated, peat soil, brackish, and tidal wetlands; and 2) Reconnect, restore, and protect 100,000 miles of our nations’ rivers and streams by 2030, using approaches like removal of impediments and stream bank restoration.

In this video, a parrot teaches us about saving water. There are some important messages for us from the story of the parrot. The video shows us that we should understand the importance of water and how we can conserve it. The parrot serves as a valuable reminder of how crucial water conservation is for us. 💧💧💧 #linkedinforcreators #linkedincommunity #savewater #savewatersavelife #linkedinconnections #linkdinmarketing #linkedinfamily #linkedinconnect #linkedingrowth #linkdinpost

We are actively supporting natural resource organisations who are dedicated to enhancing on-the-ground environmental outcomes through the Queensland Government’s Natural Resources Recovery Program (NRRP). In collaboration with Reef Catchments, we are protecting and preserving wetlands that play a crucial role in the health of the Great Barrier Reef. By implementing pests management across 75,000 hectares, improving grazing and cane management with treatment trains (chain of ponds), and engaging in revegetation efforts, we collectively re-establish native vegetation, improve connectivity, reduce pollutant and enhance water quality. This not only helps reduce run-off to our Reef but also improves landholders' productivity and profitability. This treatment train in Jane’s Creek, near Mackay, is a great example of this success. It slows down the movement of water, allowing sediment to settle and nutrients to breakdown in ponds before entering the creek system and eventually reaching the Great Barrier Reef lagoon. #NRRP #NaturalResourcesRecoveryProgram #ReefCatchments #GreatBarrierReef
