Here's a visual of Land Use Land Cover (LULC) transitions from 1850 to 2023 in the Central Po Plain, Italy. It shows changes in land use for 1850, 1954, and 2023. Understanding these transitions aids in policy-making and land use planning for ecological health. @RhECAST_Project

What if we could learn an important lesson from historical nature-based solutions? @RhECAST_Project is exploring the potential benefits of restoring historic agroforestry systems in terms of carbon dioxide removal. Stay tuned! 🤙😎 https://t.co/hDt5S8yNVQ

Nature-based solutions like agroforestry are shaping the future of carbon removal. While planting trees is a controversial method for fighting climate change, many tech companies continue to rely on this strategy to meet their sustainability goals. https://t.co/1qtNzTbrGZ

Comparing the Po Plain from the mid-19th century to today shows the dramatic shift from historic agroforestry to industrial monocultures. With @RhECAST_Project, I'm exploring the potential of reviving these nature-based solutions for climate mitigation. Stay tuned 🤟🌳🌳🌳

Milan ranks as the 3rd-worst global city for air quality, standing at the heart of one of the world's most severe hotspots for GHGs. @RhECAST_Project aim at mitigating this emergency through historically nature-based solutions. Stay tuned! 💪 https://t.co/wOekapG5ju

This aligns perfectly with @RhECAST_Project. The U.S. global food security envoy advocates for the revival of traditional African crops, long sidelined by American policies. This blend of innovation and tradition could be the key to sustainable solutions. https://t.co/FU1zqLhfJn

The conservation of historic terraced rural landscapes is crucial to reduce both the amount and velocity of water moving across the soil surface, which greatly reduces soil erosion. #WorldSoilDay
