Climate change, ecology, nature, environment, eco-friendly politics, non-profit projects, human rights, preservation, wildlife... all that we care about.
Many felines across the globe are endangered, such as the Snow Leopard, the Sumatran Tiger, and the Asiatic Cheetah. However, none of them can compare to the situation of the Iberian Lynx.
The Iberian Lynx is the most endangered cat species in the world. It’s small in size—about 60-70 cm (23.6-27.5 inches) tall and 85-110 [...]
Species extinction is a hot issue. All the reasonably decent papers, TV nature shows and news programs are running stories on bluefin tuna, African elephants, tigers and fluffy polar bears more than ever before. Heck, the New York Times even ran a story about the greater sage grouse – a plains bird from the American [...]
It would seem some animals are not safe even in the places that are supposed to protect them.
Yesterday, Bantu Lukambo of the environmental group Innovation for Development and Environmental Protection, accused Congolese soldiers of killing animals in Virunga National Park. Lukambo believes it was done in February, while the soldiers were stationed in the area [...]

Last week, 25 nations met in Florida to discuss ongoing whaling issues. The main focus of the meeting was a compromise that would allow Iceland, Japan and Norway to hunt whales openly (despite a 1986 ban on commercial whaling); but in turn the 3 nations would be required to greatly reduce their quotas over a [...]
Over the last few weeks, Vancouver was home to the 2010 Winter Olympics. Polar Bear campaigns, LEED certified venues, and e-waste medals were reported in the news, along with quite the number of victories and tragedies that happened this year. Even though the Olympics have finally come to an end, it does not mean that [...]
The world today faces two main problems: the economy and the environment. Some would suggest these 2 issues go hand-in-hand. Many have different ideas on how to deal with them. However, very few can agree on what should be done about them. Recently, I was sent a rather interesting video that gives some interesting ideas [...]
Sumatra: A large, Indonesian island that is home to over 200 mammal and nearly 600 bird species, including critically endangered animals such as the Sumatran tiger, rhino, and orangutan. It’s also the target of a new environmental initiative launched by Australia and Indonesia.
