How much wasted paper is there in the world? Or even wasted space online? The antidote is well-used paper, and well-used space. So please share this fundraiser by a small impactful charity, producing books of well-used paper, and e-books of well-used space. Today the fundraiser launched for possibly our most ambitious book yet, themed around ecological crisis and societal collapse. We would be grateful for a simple positive reaction on this post, to boost engagement. Even better, why not drop a little comment, and share your thoughts, whether frivolous or profound? Further, why not repost with your own thoughts, thus boosting your own profile? Finally...you could donate, to help this book become a reality.

The Akshaya Tritiya festival symbolizes prosperity, happiness, compassion, and abundance. It is a time to focus on giving back to the Earth Mother for all the gifts she provides. One way to honor the Earth Mother is by planting trees, conserving water, and promoting green initiatives. The "1000 Together" project aims to bring together a thousand individuals to participate in environmental activities to restore and preserve the Earth's gifts. This initiative is part of THC's commitment to environmental sustainability and community engagement. No amount is small. Donations exempt from Income Tax under Sec 80G of the Income Tex Act, 1961.

Providing an incentive for decarbonization and carbon removal is foundational for carbon markets. Great article.

Our ‘Solutions’ series aims to share local learnings from best practices related to saving lives and livelihoods, and to improve outreach and impact of resilience-enhancing practices at the global level.     Head over to the Solutions Finder to take a look at the Solutions that have been published so far, including how smallholder farmers are using raised nurseries and raised granaries to protect their seedlings from floods, how Cruz Roja Mexicana I.A.P. are strengthening social capacities and local action through community brigades and more!   🔗 https://lnkd.in/eqjXWFjC  Z Zurich Foundation

When you Google “Why are Texans so…” the first word that populates is: PROUD💙 The second is FRIENDLY🤠 We’re proud because Texas and Texans are a FORCE that manifests through our individualist personalities and robust economic prowess. We’re friendly because thanks to our rich natural resources, birds chirp, butterflies flutter, rivers run, the wind is upon our back and the sun shines on our face. We like it this way. Helping Texans stay proud and friendly: We exist to advance conservation. We partner deeply with conservation groups and business, acting as an accelerator for conservation groups and a strategic partner for business. As a non-profit, we support 160+ conservation organizations and have accelerated projects and programs that have impacted 7 million-plus people, 20 million acres, and all of Texas’ 254 counties🤠 On this #WorldConservationDay if you’re feeling extra proud and extra friendly, help us advance conservation by donating to our mission: https://lnkd.in/gdDMdsQ

This week we want to take a moment to recognize Arbor Day, which was on 5th of June. Led by the Arbor Day Foundation, a global non-profit, Arbor Day aims to increase awareness of the importance of planting, nurturing and celebrating trees. They’ve helped plant over 500 million trees over the last 50 years, in over 50 countries around the world. 🌳😊 Much like ourselves and, if you’re reading this - we suspect you too, the Arbor Day foundation believes in the benefits of trees. Recognizing the positive impact of trees to both individuals and the planet, they’re pushing for more tree planting, with the goal of adding another 500 million trees by 2027. It’s ambitious, but it is needed. 🌎🌳🌱 You can read more information about the work of the Arbor Day Foundation below.

It is so inspiring to see the work the Ocean Wise youth alum are doing, and at the same time disheartening to see reports like the recent one from the Auditor General titled "Unclear whether federal plastic waste-reduction activities will eliminate all plastic waste by 2030" (report here->https://lnkd.in/gQr43_xd). We need the Ocean, and the Ocean needs us! During June, Tru Earth will be matching donations up to $10,000. Join the effort to reduce Ocean Pollution and Plastics here - https://lnkd.in/gvfY2ztR

In 2023 we made a difference with our Treevolution initiative. We ran 12 eco-missions, planted trees, protected hedgehogs, walked many kilometres, and raised close to £10,000 through both our 10k for 10k trees and MaDD23 sponsored events. This has resulted in a bumper year for our initiative as we have planted almost 5,500 trees with our partners at the Yorkshire Dales Millennium Trust and National Forest Foundation. This brings our Treevolution total to a whopping 16,987 trees planted so far, and we have ambitious plans to hit our target of 25,000 trees by the end of 2024. #sustainability #inspiration #transformation
