If anyone asks, this is how I want to be buried. 🌱 "Life Beyond the Grave: These morticians are both conservation heroes and undertakers." Green burials meet conservation easements. Great read from Marin Scotten for Sierra. https://t.co/gJt4rUY03T

Bali starlings are making a comeback under Indigenous-led protections: the iconic songbird’s survival rate has more than doubled, with breeding pairs now re-established in several villages, reversing decades of poaching and habitat loss. https://t.co/kJ6bP0r0PO #ShareGoodNewsToo

🔥 🌳 Pyrocumulonimbus (pyroCb) clouds, wildfire-driven fire storms that inject smoke, ash, & moisture high into the sky and trigger hurricane-force winds below, generate lightning, ignite fires, and rain embers. They used to be rare. Not so anymore.

Can buying hunting licenses help save Florida's black bears? There is NO scientific grounding to support a bear hunt in Florida to "control the population," which shows no signs of being overpopulated. https://t.co/ZhglnwyiIO

A year after Hurricane Helene, broad-sweeping FEMA cleanup often damaged sensitive waterways and rare species, incentivizing speed and volume over care. Local rafting and fishing guides are taking a different approach + restarting their industry. https://t.co/XcOfputwMw

Companies like Cloudflare are claiming to build systems to monetize traffic from AI bots, which assumes tracking bots is straightforward, and that a website can reliably tell them what to do. Neither is a safe assumption. https://t.co/77JhHBCprB

🤖 But Generative #AI platforms (e.g., #ChatGPT, #Gemini, #Grok) are the exception. Public unease about AI misinformation and deepfakes begets greater skepticism and demand for guardrails, with U.K., U.S. & Germany respondents saying they want government oversight.

🤔 Most people want platforms (not governments) to be responsible for moderating #content, according to this study across 8 countries. This preference holds for social networks, video sites, messaging apps and search engines. https://t.co/x2ipfQWjLA

“The North American model remains strong, but there are modern threats that echo this case; the privatization of public lands and wildlife are still a real risk. What makes America, America and Wyoming, Wyoming is our public lands and our public wildlife.” https://t.co/ym6Xj7CH0S
