TBN Atlantic Rainforest

A single 400-year-old ancient oak produces 234,000 litres of oxygen a year while soaking up carbon dioxide, and can support more than 2,000 species of bird, insect, fungus, and lichen. Nature is amazing - we need more of it, not less. RT if you agree 🌳

The Atlantic Forest’s top predator was facing extinction. Now a series of pioneering environmental projects is bringing it back ⬇️ zurich.com/en/media/magaz…

The forest makes people healthy all by itself. The rustling of the leaves, the scents of the trees, birdsong and the babbling of the brook heal people and strengthen their health. Japanese scientists have proven the health-promoting effects of the forest in a series of studies.💚

@d_gershenson We’d grow a circa. 40,000Ha rainforest which would (in addition to being lovely) sequester around 14,000,000TC02e over the next 30 years - tbnar.com

If you got $350M for your #climate startup, what would you do with it? What impact would you have?

Forests, guarantee for -clean oxygen-rich air -Co²storage -biodiversity -water purification and regulation -lowering of temperatures -wind breakers -enrichment of healthy soil -Medicine for our body and mind We need more forests worldwide and we have to act now.💚❤️💙🌿🌱🌳

An abundance of benefits are unlocked for nature, climate and people when moorlands are restored: 🐦 Wildlife and biodiversity 🌍 Carbon storage 🏘️ Flood protection 🚰 Clean water 💷 Employment and economic value RT if you agree it's time to turn grouse moors into wild moors.

Sharing this amazing mini documentary of William Menq in Brazil about the reproduction of the magnificent Black-and-white Hawk-eagle! Amazing footage so it’s a must!!! #RaptorResearch #BirdTwitter youtube.com/watch?v=iUmWEM…

I've been spending the last few weeks researching carbon removal, specifically around how we might think about its costs and how we might fund it given its unique mixture of being highly urgent and very nascent. I've put most of my current thinking here scalingcarbonremoval.com

Restoring 30% of lands that have been converted for farming in priority areas, whilst retaining natural ecosystems, would prevent over 70% of projected extinctions of mammals, birds and amphibians. Find out more 👉 bit.ly/3JkO1rV

💯 to this 2022 prediction

"People are going to starve to death—" "I'm going to have to stop you there as we're getting towards the end of the programme."

"Microsoft received 189 proposals offering 154 megatonnes of CO2 (MtCO2)..., 2 MtCO2 met Microsoft’s criteria for high-quality CO2 removal. Stripe’s 47 carbon-removal proposals amounted to 16 MtCO2, but only 0.024 MtCO2 met the company’s requirement[s]" nature.com/articles/d4158…

All I want for Christmas is landscape-scale habitat restoration with community and science led species reintroductions. 🎅

@ProjectDrawdown @coolfireecology ‘Restorations……an essential part of recovering ecosystems where only small fragments remain, such as the grasslands …..Brazil’s Atlantic Forest,’

"Protecting and restoring nature needs to be a critical part of an all-of-the-above set of solutions for reducing the total amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere." — @coolfireecology drawdown.org/news/insights/…

All we want for Christmas is carbon drawdown. Tree restoration on land could remove up to 2/3rds of the 300 Gt of accumulated carbon in the atmosphere emitted by human activities since the beginning of the industrial era. [FAO.org] #carbondrawdown #2022

Muito feliz por compartilhar este trabalho, fruto de pelo menos 15 anos de pesquisa (+) bioone.org/journals/south…

Great article from my good colleague @hmirfanullah on the critical importance of #naturebasedsolutions for economic recovery - encouraging to see NbS in the Climate Prosperity Plan, but as he says - much more is needed! thedailystar.net/views/opinion/…
