This #WorldEnvironmentDay is especially relevant to the team at ChannelSight. The 2024 theme #GenerationRestoration brings awareness on how to reverse land degradation, halt desertification and build drought resilience, which resonates with our team as we consider how we can do our part. By joining forces, governments, businesses, civil society and individuals can give nature a helping hand and forge a more sustainable world for generations to come. The Nature Trust, co-founded by our CEO & Co-founder John Beckett, was developed to restore Ireland’s native forests and peatlands, while enabling others to follow our lead by planting native woodlands across Ireland. There is no lack of ambition: the goal of planting or rehabilitating 1% of the land area of Ireland (over 200,000 acres), at a cost of well over €1bn (in today’s money) over the next 20 years, but this is still only scratching the surface of the climate and biodiversity crises. A staggering 40 percent of the world’s population is impacted by land degradation, and if remained unchecked, could reduce global food productivity by 12 percent, causing food prices to soar by up to 30 percent by 2040. So, how are you, your government, business and community working towards land restoration?

Conservationist, Educator, and Network Weaver on a mission for green, healthy, wildlife-friendly, and equitable communities 🦋 a.k.a. Hábitat Jaime
I'm still buzzing about The Nature Conservancy in Texas achieving its 1 Million Acres protected milestone! Check out this excellent StoryMap, created by Lauren Lombardo and our team, to learn more: https://lnkd.in/ghs5kddr 1 million acres is big but how big? If you added up the municipal footprints of these American cities below (not their metro areas) - it would roughly add up to 1 million acres

These rolling hills are part of Bromfields Road, a Greenfleet property located on Boon Wurrung Country in South Gippsland, Victoria. It is one of four Greenfleet owned properties that make up the Strzelecki Nature Link. Once established, these projects will form 3.5 kilometres of contiguous koala habitat. We began revegetating this 37-hectare property last year. Over 30 locally native species were planted at Bromfields Road to create a self-sustaining and resilient native ecosystem. This includes the Mountain Grey Gum (Eucalyptus globulus), which is favoured by Strzelecki Koalas, a species endemic to this region.🌳 The forest at Bromfields Road is legally protected for 100 years and over its lifetime, will remove over 86,000 tonnes of carbon from the atmosphere. This is the equivalent of what approximately 20,100 average cars emit on Australia’s roads in a single year. 🚗💨 To learn more about Greenfleet’s work at Bromfields Road, visit: https://lnkd.in/gwaBEjhH #GrowingHope #Koalas #NativeWildlife #ClimateAction #Biodiversity

Today, the League to Save Lake Tahoe marks its 67th anniversary! We celebrate a legacy of significant environmental milestones that have shaped the preservation of Lake Tahoe since our founding in 1957. With our supporters' energy and generosity fueling our work, the League has been instrumental in pivotal environmental achievements over the decades: In the 1950s and 60s, we successfully campaigned against a proposed bridge over Emerald Bay. We prevented plans for excessive regional development that would have overpopulated the area, preserving the Lake's natural state and beauty. Throughout the 1970s and 80s, our efforts helped establish urban growth boundaries, contributing to long-term environmental planning and protection. We also played a key role in stopping sewage runoff from being dumped into the Lake, which was a significant victory for water quality. The 1990s brought further triumphs, including the influential 1997 Tahoe Presidential Summit, which brought federal attention and funding for Tahoe's environmental restoration. During this time, we also successfully advocated for banning polluting two-stroke marine engines. In the 2000s & beyond, our focus has expanded to include innovative technological solutions and citizen science initiatives. We've pioneered programs like Eyes on the Lake and introduced cutting-edge technologies like beach-cleaning robots, which help manage and mitigate pollution and invasive species. These initiatives support our ongoing mission to maintain Lake Tahoe's ecological health through hands-on community involvement and science-based solutions. Our journey from 1957 to today proves our commitment to conservation, powered by community support and scientific research. As we look ahead, the League remains dedicated to advancing our mission to protect the Lake and ensure that Tahoe doesn't get loved to death. On the League's 67th anniversary, we honor the League's past achievements, the pioneers who came before us that kept Tahoe blue, along with the donors, volunteers and partners who helped make it all possible. Their hard work has allowed us to enjoy Lake Tahoe's beauty, just as they did generations ago. Today, the Keep Tahoe Blue spirit lives on in us stronger than ever, so in another 67 years, that generation will experience Lake Tahoe as we do today. #KeepTahoeBlue #ClimateAction #SustainableTahoe #LakeTahoeLove

The continued efforts of groups like The Nature Conservancy in restoring longleaf pine forests across the region have contributed significantly to the growth of red-cockaded woodpeckers, one of the best-known animals that thrive in longleaf forests. Throughout the Southeast, a coordinated effort is underway to conserve and restore these rich and vital forests that run through the heart of Mississippi. Spanning nine states in the U.S. southeast, we’re working together to restore and manage longleaf pine forest from Texas to Virginia. Longleaf pine once dominated the coastal plain blanketing more than 90 million acres. Today there are just 5.2 million acres, up from an historical low of 3.2 million acres two decades ago.

Uniting to Protect Tahoe: Highlights from the 2024 Lake Tahoe Summit Today, leaders, policymakers, environmental advocates and community members met for the 28th annual Lake Tahoe Summit, held at the beautiful Round Hill Pines beach in Zephyr Cove, NV. This year’s theme, “Connecting Tahoe: Investing in Transit, Trails, and Technology for the Future,” brought together voices with a shared commitment to preserving and enhancing the Tahoe Basin. Key Highlights: 🎤 Keynote Speaker: U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg emphasized the importance of investing in sustainable transportation, clean energy, and cutting-edge technology to protect Tahoe for future generations. We were thrilled to hear about the nearly $8 million investment in hybrid buses to reduce congestion, noise, and pollution. 🤝 Bipartisan Collaboration: Lawmakers from both Nevada and California, including Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (NV), Sen, Jacky Rosen (NV), Rep. John Garamendi (CA), Rep. Kevin Kiley (CA), and Sen. Laphonza Butler (CA), underscored the importance of putting politics aside to focus on protecting this national treasure. Their united message was clear: safeguarding Lake Tahoe requires cooperation and action at every level. 🌿 Environmental Challenges: Experts, including Dr. Sudeep Chandra from the University of Nevada, Reno, highlighted the ongoing challenges of wildfire and aquatic invasive species. The impact of these factors on Tahoe’s ecosystem, especially concerning water clarity and algae growth, was a key topic of discussion. Our Commitment: As the League to Save Lake Tahoe, we remain deeply committed to our mission to Keep Tahoe Blue. The discussions and insights at today’s summit reinforce the critical need for continued investment in innovative solutions and community action. We look forward to continuing to work alongside elected leaders and our Tahoe partners to ensure the Basin remains a pristine and cherished destination for future generations. Together, we will Keep Tahoe Blue! 💙 #KeepTahoeBlue #LakeTahoeSummit #EnvironmentalStewardship #Sustainability #BipartisanAction #TransportationInnovation #WildfirePrevention #CommunityAction

Healthy land is much more than just dirt and plants. It’s the foundation for everything we need to thrive. Think of a world where nature flourishes, communities can face droughts without fear, and sustainable practices prevent desertification. This is the vision that drives us at Batnon Center for Environment and Sustainable Development. We are actively developing solutions. Find out how we're doing this at https://lnkd.in/d-cHrHNH
