2/6: Loss of #biodiversity is one of the most devastating impacts of #climatechange as it compounds the damages to our ecosystems, agriculture, and livelihoods.
3/6: As the planet’s atmospheric temperature continues to rise, extreme weather events become more frequent, and ecosystems, to face further destruction, we drive loss of species, sometimes with irreversible consequences.

Study from @salkinstitute found that partial reprogramming using the #Yamanaka transcription factors (#Oct4, #Sox2, #Klf4 & #cMyc) for short periods of time:
-restored a youthful #epigenetic signature to #aging cells & extends the life span of a #premature #aging mouse model.
-restored a youthful #epigenetic signature to #aging cells & extends the life span of a #premature #aging mouse model.
-long-term partial reprogramming led to rejuvenating effects in different tissues, such as the #kidney & #skin, and at the #organismal level; duration of the treatment determined the extent of the beneficial effects.
-The rejuvenating effects were associated with a reversion of the #epigenetic clock and metabolic and #transcriptomic changes, including reduced expression of genes involved in the #inflammation, #senescence & #stressresponse pathways.

Aus gutem Grund müssen Zeitungen Anzeigen als Anzeigen kennzeichnen. Damit klar getrennt wird, wo Journalist*innen ihre Recherche teilen und wo jemand etwas verkaufen will. Es ist keine perfekte Lösung, dass Medien von Anzeigenkunden abhängig sind, aber immerhin.
Das Event-Sponsoring weicht diese Grenze auf und das ist nicht gut. Was bedeutet es, dass Bayer u BASF Partner dieser Events sind? Sie geben großzügig etwas Geld ab, damit Expert*innen diskutieren können? Welchen Einfluss nehmen sie auf das Programm, direkt oder indirekt?
FINALLY our new manuscript is out in @FrontiersIn! Env outcomes of #regenerative multi-species #grazing at @whiteoakpasture w/ full LCA + soil C data

Top-line findings:
- @whiteoakpasture was sequestering 2.29 Mg C/ha/yr, which lowered its LCA footprint by 80%
- when comparing this to commodity animal production, @whiteoakpasture had a 66% lower GHG footprint after considering soil C

- multi-species pasture rotation *did* require more land to produce the same amount of food compared to commodity
- however, this land was restored from degraded cropland (peanut/cotton)
- in short - this does NOT mean that MSPR = deforestation/land use change from native lands

The ruling class "imperative" to save, rebrand & expand the capitalist system, is coming down like a sledgehammer over our collective heads. The "#reset" social engineering & behavioral change campaigns have just begun. Know your enemy. This is #classwar.

🇺🇸 A national #food policy for the #UnitedStates:
Calls for a "National Food Policy" have been made for decades - with quite some resurgence in the past few years.
So, rooted in existing efforts & movement building, IPES-Food’s #US team is gearing up for more discussions.

This article has been making the rounds: ourworldindata.org/food-choice-vs….
And we’ve noticed it being used to shut down discussion about the societal and environmental benefits of eating #localfood - so we did some digging below the controversial headline.

The article cites (among other things) a study comparing growing lettuce in the UK during winter to importing it from Spain (where it’s still in season). Growing out-of-season food is often energy-intensive and this naturally makes a local diet look bad. But…

A local diet isn’t just about eating what you can BUY locally; it’s about eating what can naturally GROW locally. If one were to compare local in-season food vs imported food of the same type, the results would look very different.
