Freshwater #ecosystems, such as streams 🌊, can face threats from urbanisation and #agriculture, making them prone to degradation.
Researchers explore the potential of recovery for these ecosystems, based on data from Lower Saxony, #Germany 🇩🇪.
RT @EUClimateAction: Globally, urban areas account for 70% of all CO2 emissions ☁️, and consume 65% of the world's energy ⚡️!
That is why the 🇪🇺 launched the Cities Mission, to help 100 cities become climate neutral and smart by 2030.

Integrated assessment models (IAMs) represent interactions between the energy system ⚡, #GreenhouseGas emissions 🏭 and global economy 💰.
A study explores how final energy demand is implemented into IAMs and how it impacts #ClimateChange policies.
Today is #SaveTheKoalaDay 🐨, raising awareness to protect #koalas from habitat loss and extinction.
Research has found that soundscape technology 🔊 could enable automated, rapid monitoring of ecosystems, leading to better safeguarding of #habitats.
🆕 research identifies sites of future #ClimateChange refugia in #Mediterranean 🇪🇺, which can help play a key role in safeguarding #biodiversity.
Are we doing enough to protect these areas? 🤔
♨️The 2022 summer has had catastrophic consequences for glaciers in the #Alps
One of #Germany's five glaciers can no longer be considered a 'glacier' due to recent massive melting

#DYK that both #Galileo & #EGNOS help in
✔️increasing agricultural yields
✔️reducing the costs & environmental impact of farming techniques?
Today is #WorldRhinoDay! 🦏 Many species like the #rhino are threatened by poaching and located in ‘protected areas’ for #conservation.
This study explores how costs of defencing these areas could be reduced through spatial planning software 💻.
