Exciting buzz from Bees and Trees Uganda! 🐝 This week, they trained farmers on bee trees, sustainable apiaries, and honey quality management. PLUS they tested GainForest's tech to map various tree species and biodiversity to train AI in species recognition. 🤯

Areas protected for conservation cover >17% of all land.

How well do we know the biodiversity in these areas?

Our new work shows: public participation in monitoring plays a key role in knowledge of biodiversity in global protected areas.

Hi #ReFi #DeSci fam,

Quick glimpse what kept us busy XPRIZE (/w @ethbiodivx) 🧬🤖

Autonomous drones are crucial to democratise the collection of images, audio and environmental DNA - revealing biodiversity at scale 🌱🌎

Step 2 is then to reward citizen scientists. Join us!

Instead of a 'dooming AI apocalypse', can we talk about this graph? Tipping points are crossed this year and ... spoiler alert: It will be worse next year and the years after.

We are in the defining generation of the climate and biodiversity emergency. We need to act now! 🌏🌱

Brazilian scientists are leading the way in the land systems data science & transparency revolution. INPE & mapbiomas have done brilliant things in the last 10 years on land cover & land use, now soil quality. Next up: land management? people's values? A girl can dream.

One feature of LLMs that is undervalued in UN negotiations: prompting and translating to your mother tongue.

W/ Youth Negotiators Academy, we explore opportunities and limits of this tech to empower marginalized communities to have a better and more inclusive seat at the table 🌱
