CO2 levels haven’t been this high in almost 15 million years, and the last 5 years have been the hottest on record. #climatechange #environment #co2 #sustainability #emissions

One of the species hardest hit by the fires in Australia earlier this year was the Endangered Brush-tailed Rock Wallaby. An estimated 80% of their habitat burned. @AussieArk, one of the Australia Wildfire Fund partners, has been providing food drops for displaced, starving wildlife, like the wallaby. Now they are starting to see signs of hope, including a recent spotting on their most recent food drop of a female Brush-tailed Rock Wallaby with a young joey. Photo courtesy of Lachlan Gilding.

We don't yet know if non-human primates can contract COVID-19, but the Sumatran Orangutan Conservation Programme (@socp.official) isn't taking any chances. Unfortunately, these necessary precautions are making it harder for the island's only orangutan reintroduction program to continue crucial conservation work.

From @cnnclimate: Energy watchdogs are warning that not nearly enough is being done to fight the climate crisis and are calling for a rapid acceleration in clean energy innovation. The International Energy Agency says climate goals set by governments and corporations around the world depend on technologies that have not yet reached the market. "The message is very clear: in the absence of much faster clean energy innovation, achieving net-zero goals in 2050 will be all but impossible," Fatih Birol, the IEA's executive director, said in a statement.

From the @WashingtonPost: Much of the world remains consumed with the deadly novel coronavirus. The United States, crippled by the pandemic, is in the throes of a divisive presidential campaign and protests over racial inequality. But at the top of the globe, the Arctic is enduring its own summer of discontent. Wildfires are raging amid record-breaking temperatures. Permafrost is thawing, infrastructure is crumbling and sea ice is dramatically vanishing. In Siberia and across much of the Arctic, profound changes are unfolding more rapidly than scientists anticipated only a few years ago. Shifts that once seemed decades away are happening now, with potentially global implications. Go to the link in the @WashingtonPost’s bio to read more. (Photo by Yevgeny Sofroneyev/TASS/Getty)

Via @nrdc_org: Anti-Black racism and white supremacy are inextricably linked to the climate crisis. We cannot begin to resolve one without the other. Whether it be the extractive legacy of slavery and colonialism or environmental racism through increased exposure to toxic pollutants or disproportionate impacts of climate change, if we do not address the root causes that exist we will not achieve justice.

This traditional fishing village in Lan Ha Bay, Vietnam, floats atop emerald waters among lush limestone karst formations. Villagers depend on the sea for survival and make a living from fishing, aquaculture, and tourism. It looks like paradise, but their unique way of life is threatened by wastewater, plastic pollution, unsustainable tourist activities, and climate change. If Lan Ha Bay is to remain a beautiful place to live and visit, tourists must take care to reduce their environmental impact while visiting—if they visit at all.
