A privilege to have @AFrontlines involved in this research through @EcocideGenocide & fantastic to see in this blog how our findings resonate with the amazing & crucial work they do in the #Amazon for #Indigenous peoples + nature in such challenging circumstances.

Scientific studies are increasingly finding that #IndigenousPeoples are the most effective at conserving #biodiversity compared to ‘western’ forms of #conservation, such as protected areas (ie. national parks).

Today is the 40th anniversary of the removal of Scotland's 3-mile fishing limit by the Thatcher government. Our fisheries' capacity to keep local people on both sea & land has never recovered. That is why @TheOpenSeas campaigns to restore the limit. Read: ourseas.scot/news/a-history…

This really is an extraordinary graphic. While we agonise over the impact of releasing a few Beavers back in the landscape, about 50 million non-native Pheasants are released into the environment each year with not much debate at all.
Tom Webb@tomjwebb

Just looking back at this paper link.springer.com/article/10.100… by @TimBlackburn66 and @KevinJGaston for a tutorial I'm running on Monday - this really is an extraordinary figure isn't it? 49% of Britain's bird biomass in August is pheasant.

Our latest blog dives into a fascinating meta-analysis by @NeilMDawson et al. of governance in community conservation efforts around the world. What they found is powerful: greater power to communities = better conservation and social outcomes! 1/3 resourceafrica.net/african-commun…
