- WTAF: @cityofwinnipeg.bsky.social considering removing bylaw for bird-friendly windows. Bylaw only applies to new builds along major corridors & near malls! But industry doesn’t like it. So nature takes the hit, literally. Winnipeggers, you gotta write to council. www.cbc.ca/player/play/...

- Filtration + ventilation! Air filters: I prefer “modified CR box with PC fan” type. Quiet, effective, inexpensive & easy to build and to replace filters. * In Canada: aidankepo.wixsite.com/northboxsyst... * Similar in the US is “Luggable” housefresh.com/best-air-pur... 1/

- Went to a local screening of “Animal Pride” documentary last night. 🌈 Nature is, and always has been, queer. It’s normal & beneficial — yet the scientific info has been suppressed. Celebrate & learn. 🌈 Watch it free on CBC or YouTube (45 min): animalpride.ca. #AnimalPrideDoc #NatureIsQueer

- Once more for the people in the back — “The argument for reopening grizzly hunts is not about conservation or public safety.” University of Manitoba researchers write an excellent, readable summary of human-bear conflict & coexistence. theconversation.com/calls-for-gr...
- This ⬇️ is off the charts bonkers. Those are hallmarks of caring, just societies that support people. I do not regret to inform you that we are going to win.

- Reposted by Aerin Jacob, PhDI wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture. They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1
- Don’t miss this! #WalrusTalks are free to watch online — register. Dr. Bobiwash is an Assistant Professor and an Indigenous Scholar @umanitoba.bsky.social He’s also a researcher in residence at the Office of the Chief Science Advisor of Canada. Insightful and a great speaker. 👏
- Better is possible! Send this to your city / town, mayor, council etc. (or tag them). Urge them to prioritize — maintain & increase — trees, native vegetation, wetlands, & natural infrastructure in public and private spaces. Good for everyone.
