As climate change continues to remake global landscapes, new @UCBerkeley analysis by @KyleRosenblad and Rausser College dean @ucbdavid have uncovered early warnings of a growing mismatch between forest composition in the West and climate change. nature.berkeley.edu/news/2023/04/w…

My holiday present: a global deal for nature. It includes an agreement to conserve 30% of the planet and to restore 30% of degraded areas, as well as $30 billion/yr by 2030 to support the implementation of the new global biodiversity framework. Let’s get to work! #COP15

@Pyrogeographer @CAForestHealth @PepperwoodCA Another view of the @PepperwoodCA field day. Great conversations in that lovely fog.

Happy Earth Day. Our planet needs us like never before. Each of us can make a difference, in our own communities and across the world. As @KHayhoe says, we maintain HOPE by taking ACTION. We can do this.

Our new center in partnership w/@BerkeleyDataSci will foster collaboration to address environmental challenges with #datascience tools. Thanks to a gift from @ericschmidt and @wenschmidt, researchers will develop novel solutions with global benefit. ow.ly/Ay0n50IqyRV

NEW DECEMBER RECORD: 193.7" With a 24 hour official #snow total of 38.9" at the lab, we have smashed the previous record of 179" of snow in December set in 1970! Snow rates are still heavy and we could even break the 200" mark today! #CAwx #CAwater

We will miss our friend and colleague Tom Lovejoy, who devoted his life to the study and conservation of biodiversity. I remember visiting Camp 41 outside Manaus and spending many wonderful evenings at his home outside Washington DC. We will always remember him.

Cesar (@EstienCesar; he/him) is one of two co-chairs for the EJ section @ESA! He is currently a PhD student @ESPM_Berkeley working with @cschell_canids on understanding how cities/humans impact carnivores, both individually & on a community level, & centering justice in his work.

JOB OPPORTUNITY: the @UCBerkeley Institute for Parks, People, and Biodiversity seeks a new executive director to help the institute carry on Berkeley’s legacy of involvement in parks. The application period will close in November: parks.berkeley.edu/news/2021/10/p…
