Pls s/s. We must protect our wildlife, and precious lands, plus our laws, because if we do not, noone will. We need you to speak up, and save 29 protected species. Protected means what? Nothing? Law is law, and to build this hwy, and bulldoze precious, PROTECTED by law species, is not upholding the law.

It’s crunch time for nature protection in Australia. 💪 The government is working on new nature laws that must stop the alarming destruction of our forests, wetlands and #wildlife. We’ve had behind-the-scenes access to these new laws, and they don’t go far enough. 👎️ 👀 Today the public consultation has started again and it might be our last chance to take a peep before they go to the country’s decision makers.

Six conservation groups filed a petition with the California Fish and Game Commission (Commission) on March 5, 2024 to request the implementation of legal protections for five populations of the western burrowing owl as a threatened or endangered species under the California Endangered Species Act. If the burrowing owl is granted such protections, it will have far-reaching impacts on development projects in south and central-western California; the San Francisco Bay Area; and the Central, Coachella, and Imperial Valleys. 🔗Read more about this story and our other notable updates mentioned below in this week's Sustainable Development & Land Use Update: https://hubs.li/Q02DM4-y0 ✔️ Affordable housing construction underway in San Francisco ✔️ California lawmakers exempt their new office building from state environmental law ✔️ San Diego built more housing last year than it did in the past 17 years #SustainableDevelopment #Housing #LandUse #California

The #naturerestoration law is but one segment of the EU's multi-faceted plan to improve #sustainability and #circularity in our Union. This law is but one which will serve to slash carbon emissions and move Europe and indeed the World, leading toward a more green global future. The textile services industry is proud to do our part in addressing these European and global goals! ETSA as a European Commission #ClimatePact Ambassador, is only one way in which this commitment is underscored. #Myworldourplanet #ClimatePact #EUGreenDeal #PactAmbassador #natureconservation #NatureRestoration #CircularEconomy #CarbonEmissions #GreenFuture #TextileServices #ClimateAction #EUGreenDeal #EnvironmentalProtection #EUCircularEconomy #GlobalSustainability
Today is a big day not just for Nature but for all of us! For Europe’s farmers, fishers and foresters, all those whose future depends on her. I am thankful to all who defended the 🇪🇺 Nature Restoration Law at the European Parliament today! Nature got our back during Covid, now it’s our turn to have hers! Congratulations! #EUGreenDeal

🌟 As a real estate and marketing professional, how do legal battles impacting wetlands permitting authority affect our industry and environment? 🌿 - Florida's motion for a stay highlights the significant effects on water resources, wildlife, and land use, emphasizing the state's sovereign interests. - Moss' denial of the stay request underscores the need for a balance between efficiency and sovereignty in regulatory administration. - The case's outcome has far-reaching implications for businesses, environmental groups, and regulatory frameworks, with diverse stakeholders taking positions on the matter. Let's reflect on how this legal dispute may shape the future of wetlands permitting and environmental conservation in Florida. #RealEstate #EnvironmentalImpact #LegalBattle #FloridaRegulations #WetlandsConservation #RegulatoryFramework

Throughout the election campaign, it became clear that people know that our natural world is in crisis and want politicians to make the bold and ambitious commitments to reverse the decline. So with the results now in, what does it mean for nature? Here are five asks we think the new government should prioritise in their first 100 days: https://lnkd.in/eTGuWqp7 The Wildlife Trusts

Extinction is a choice. As the Maugean Skate inches closer to extinction, the Wilderness Society is advocating for a full removal of fish farms from Macquarie Harbour. The Maugean Skate is is now thought to be entirely restricted to Macquarie Harbour and ending fish farming will facilitate its recovery while restoring the World Heritage Area values of Macquarie Harbour. This crisis also shows the need for the Albanese government to significantly strengthen Australia's nature laws. Australia’s world class nature, and unique species like the Maugean Skate, deserve laws that actually protect habitats and stop extinctions. Sign our petition calling for robust and forward-thinking nature law reforms that actually work to protect nature HERE👇 https://lnkd.in/gYVvijHi Article: 'Roadmap calls for cut in fish farm activity in Macquarie Harbour this year', Benjamin Seeder, The Advocate, 4 February 2024. #threatenedspecies #environment #nature

Get in the mood for #WorldWetlandsDay at our Conservation and Land Use Webinar on Thursday, February 1! Krista Spohr from NYS Department of Environmental Conservation will provide an overview of DEC's current freshwater wetlands regulations and how they are enforced, and explain forthcoming regulatory changes and their effective dates. Register here: https://lnkd.in/dV-Hz3KG. In 2022, Governor Kathy Hochul signed into law historic revisions to New York's Freshwater Wetlands Act. Currently, DEC's jurisdiction is limited to wetlands that are equal to or greater than 12.4 acres (and certain wetlands of unusual local importance) and identified on the State Freshwater Wetlands Map. The new legislation will eliminate the map requirement beginning in 2025 and in 2028, DEC's jurisdiction will expand to wetlands as small as 7.4 acres. The reforms will allow DEC to protect over one million acres of critically important freshwater wetlands that are currently unmapped and thousands of additional acres of smaller wetlands. Earlier this month, DEC published an advanced notice of proposed rulemaking, inviting public comment on potential updates to freshwater wetlands protection and classification regulations. The DEC is looking for answers to specific questions as well as general input and suggestions which may inform the potential revisions, including: - criteria for “wetlands of unusual importance” including significant flooding, rare animals, vernal pools, and local and regional significance - criteria for extension of regulated adjacent areas - procedures for jurisdictional determination. To view the draft proposed regulatory updates, visit DEC's Freshwater Wetlands Program webpage: https://lnkd.in/dXZKmg5r. Comments are due February 19, 2024.

Our grasslands are bustling and diverse ecosystems, but too many are at risk of extinction. 🛑 And when these places disappear, so do the animals and plants that call it home.🏡 Shockingly, the largest areas of remaining native grassland in Victoria occur on agricultural private land, where they bear the burden of degradation from cultivation, and pest plants and animals. 😢 Our national environment laws are supposed to protect these places regardless of whether they occur on private, or public land. However, destruction of Victoria’s threatened native grasslands still occurs without assessment under our national nature laws. 💔 Call on your decision makers to do better by filling out this survey on nature law reform. 💪@tanyaplibersek @albomp, it’s time for our new laws that actually protect nature. https://acf.to/3vEEqJY #auspol
