Data Journalist | Data Journalism & Digital Journalism lecturer | AI Journalism researcher | New Media/Digital Journalism researcher | Shaping the Future 🌍✨
As a #datajournalism educator, I must admit that it wasn't easy for me to step out of my comfort zone and return to the field, putting into practice what I teach in the classroom. But I soldiered on, driven by a mix of excitement and nervousness. The investigation I embarked on turned out to be a profound and eye-opening experience, stirring up a whirlwind of emotions within me. It made me realise the paramount importance of wildlife species in Zimbabwe and the urgent need to protect them. The more I delved into the depths of the issue, the more my passion for conservation grew. I found myself deeply invested in the cause, feeling a mixture of awe, admiration and concern for these magnificent creatures. Yet, there were moments of frustration and disappointment along the way. It can be disheartening to approach individuals whom you consider potential sources, only to be turned down because they simply "don't feel like it." It tested my patience and resilience, evoking feelings of frustration and even a tinge of sadness. However, amidst the challenges, I am immensely grateful to the sources that did come through. Their willingness to share their insights and stories provided me with a renewed sense of hope and determination. It reminded me of the power of collaboration and the significance of human connection in addressing pressing environmental issues. With a newfound appreciation for the extraordinary wildlife of Zimbabwe and a deep sense of responsibility, I am committed to raising awareness and finding solutions to protect the elephants and preserve their natural habitats. This journey has been transformative and I express my heartfelt gratitude to Oxpeckers Investigative Environmental Journalism for equipping me with invaluable knowledge and education. If you'd like to delve into the full story and experience the emotions that accompanied this investigation, you can read it at this link: [Silent extinction: Zimbabwe’s hotbed of environmental crime](https://bit.ly/3Vrr7Hc).

Board member, contributor, scribbler, speaker. Sometimes blunt. Not polishing my credentials for any more govt roles.
Highly recommend these courses
We are running the Introduction to Wildlife Law training again, this time on 22 and 23 May 2024. This is the course I wish I could have attended when I was started out in wildlife law! It introduces you to all the key concepts, provides an overview of the regulation of protected sites and species and then ends up with a horizon scan of current developments in law and policy so you can better make sense of this fast changing area of practice. This course is absolutely ideal for anyone starting out in environmental consulting or working on natural capital projects. Feel free to drop me a line if you would like more information or would like to know about the other courses Freeths are running. #environmentallaw #natureconservation #naturepositive #protectedsites https://lnkd.in/eaQ6XN9J

🦅 Oil spill in Ireland What we should be doing: 📲 Use this opportunity to transform public inclusion and teach people how to participate in citizen science to improve our relationship with technology & the environment ✅ This is something we can do today 🗺️ Add the data and locations to #openlittermap to visualise and communicate the extent of the spill 🫡 Let’s get some data and hold polluters accountable 🤔 Maybe a PhD or SBIR opportunity might be important #oilspill #polluterpays #citizenscience #ireland #opensource #opendata #openpollutionmap #peoplepower #biodiversity #openlittermap

What is a “rare” species? In the context of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this became a central question in the recent court decision, Nassiri v. City of Lafayette, et al., First District Court of Appeals, June 27, 2024. The Section 15380 definition of “Endangered, Rare or Threatened Species” has long been a part of the Guidelines. This section also mandates lead agencies to consider a species endangered, rare, or threatened if it can be shown to meet the qualifying criteria described therein, even when the species is not listed under either the California Endangered Species Act (CESA) or federal Endangered Species Act (ESA). Public agencies serving as a CEQA lead or responsible agency carry the responsibility to consider a species’ qualification as endangered, rare, or threatened under CEQA based on the facts of the project. This responsibility raises important issues for the environmental practitioner. From an environmental practitioner’s perspective, this court decision is a cautionary tale about the importance of the precise wording of CEQA Guidelines definitions. When seeking to conclude if a species qualifies as “rare” under Section 15380 or not, careful analysis of the explicit provisions in Section 15380 is the key. Our article explores the issue of “what is a rare species under CEQA” and offers practice pointers. Read our full analysis on rare species under CEQA here: https://lnkd.in/efW3pR3s

Lawyer, Teacher 🧑🏫,passionate about Environmental,Energy, Oil and Gas and Property Law, CAC Agent, Seasonal Baker
Today, I had the opportunity to attend an event hosted by the UNODC in collaboration with Federal Ministry of Environment to commemorate the world wildlife day, titled “connecting the people and the planet: Exploring Digital Innovation in wildlife conservation “. Presentation of the findings of the ICCWC Toolkit Report for Nigeria was made, it was noted Nigeria is currently under suspension by CITES due to high rate of woodtrade, ivory e.t.c and Nigeria legislation is addressed as category 1, which means a country with the bear minimum requirement to join CITES. Secondly, the Endangered Species Act as amended in 2016, failed to criminalized wildlife illegal export/import. One of the major issues raised was in respect to judiciary , it was noted that most judges/ magistrates have no experience/ awareness on wildlife and forest crimes . Recommendations were made such as making room for specialized courts e.t.c The Honorable Minister of Environment, while addressing the audience , urged that our biodiversity should be protected by all means and an alternative livelihood will be provided for the rural communities, Environmental law must be offered in universities to teach lawyers from beginning how to tackle environmental issues, and Environmental tribunal must be established to help address such issues. A paper, was presented by Prof Yoila David Malann from the University of Abuja. In essence, let’s promote sustainable practices and end wildlife and forest crime in Nigeria.
