Why is there no person or team at @DefraGovUK working specifically on grasslands, when they cover at least 40% of England?🚨 In an open letter, we're calling on the UK Gov to urgently address this & fully realise the value of grasslands now🌱 Learn more👉plantlife.org.uk/our-work/the-g…

We are thrilled to take part in #BIOSPACE25❗️ @DrGeoffSmith, @BrunoCombal, & Karl Ruf (@space4env) introduced a timeline for human understanding of grasslands 🌱, the main legislations for biodiversity protection in the 🇪🇺, & the role of EO information in habitat protection 🦋

@EU_Grasslands @DrGeoffSmith @CopernicusLand @esa @EU_ENV @EUEnvironment @BiodiversaPlus @GEOBON_org @CEOSdotORG @space4env @BirdLifeEurope @GBIF @RamsarConv @bilbomatica Great job Geoff, Karl and the whole EU Grassland Watch consortium!

@DrGeoffSmith closed this week at #BIOSPACE25 with general conclusions of our session and recommendations to @CopernicusLand, @esa and other EO data providers 🛰 The lack of in situ data and downstream tools were identified as the main issues when monitoring 🌾 grasslands

We’re pleased that @HumbertoDRosa1 recognised our project at #Biospace25! 🌍 In his speech, he highlighted the importance of linking EO data with on-the-ground reporting. Strengthening this connection is one of the goals of our project. 🌱 @EU_ENV

Several dozen machine operator/contractors took part in peatland restoration demonstrations here in Mayo over the past couple of weeks, facilitated by @WAN_LIFEIP, @BordnaMona, @coilltenews & @NPWSIreland 1/2

Education is and will always be the best tool to preserve the planet. This #EducationDay, discover our 🇪🇺 Nature Protection Toolkit where students can find all the answers on: 🌱 What's biodiversity 🐻 What's a species 🏞 What's a habitat ... and more 👉 europa.eu/!47QjjB

#DYK that we attended the @Eurosite Annual Meeting this week❓ @DrGeoffSmith demonstrated how the #EUGW service can act as an exemplary service for #EO based land monitoring through our upcoming platform improvements Service features will include ➡ terabytes of data, an intuitive interface, long-time series of results & trends, & a rich land feature description 🗺 Read more at👇 cop4n2k.eu

#CLMS starts migration to the #Copernicus Data Space Ecosystem! 🌐✨ CLMS products & Sentinel satellite data 🛰 will soon be co-located, significantly expanding the available data pool. This migration will happen in stages. Stay tuned! More info: land.copernicus.eu/en/news/clms-s…

Turloughs, sometimes known as underwater meadows, are semi-natural habitats that are virtually unique to Ireland. They generally flood in winter and dry out in summer. You can visit one at Coole Park and another at the Burren National Park #GreatIrishGrasslands

Open grasslands are amongst the most threatened ecosystems in Europe. LIFE OREKA Mendian has been working to conserve & restore grasslands⛰️ in Spain & France. 🏆This #LIFEProject has won the #Natura2000Awards in the Cross-border cooperation category: europa.eu/!BG7vbP

Researchers say an artificial intelligence algorithm correctly identified stinkbugs 97 percent of the time — far more efficient than the low-tech monitoring methods still used today. trib.al/Lmx2Gd4
