Some 🌳 species are important to cultures, but this isn't passive appreciation. Looking at ecosystem services + services TO ecosystems, we combined biophysical sampling of trees (122 plots) & interviews (31) in a settled landscape to show cultural sig emerges through active relationships.

I am a climate scientist and this is correct ⬇️

Occasional reminder that there’s no, “it’s too late, its over” for anthropogenic climate change. Every molecule of CO2 that doesn’t go into the atmosphere makes a difference. Preventing 0.1 degree of warming makes a difference. Every bit of climate resilience we build together makes a difference.

So happy to find back @gurdeep.ca here!! Thanks for spreading positive vibes.

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays everyone. Enjoy these precious times with your loved ones. 🤍

Even if we live to be 100 years old, our entire lifetime is just a blink of an eye compared to Earth's 4.5 billion years of existence. Why waste our precious time on negativity and hating our fellow travellers who share this brief journey with us? Let's find joy instead.
