Remember that $115,000 donation fund we opened up to community votes? The people have spoken: The Nature Conservancy gets $95K. Thorn and https://t.co/71gRQrvQpF split the rest. Not bad for internet democracy.

🌎 @POTUS set new U.S. carbon emissions target: 61-66% below 2005 levels by 2035. "It is critical for the U.S. to signal its ambition to other countries in a year when they are all being called up to renew their 5-year climate pledges." @JenMorrisNature

President Biden announced the new targets would be 61 to 66% below 2005 levels by 2035. The target is part of the country’s updated nationally determined contribution as part of the Paris Agreement.

Thank you @JustinWorland for reporting on this and echoing the economic value of nature after our discussion at the @MilkenInstitute Conference last week. More than half of the global economy is highly or moderately dependent on nature. If we lose nature, we lose everything.
