Whales can help us fight climate change
The attempt to increase the number of whales could be seen as a benign form of geo-engineering. A large whale absorbs on average 33 tonnes of CO2, while a tree, for example, stores less than 50 kg annually.- animal welfare

Good news: The ozone hole above the Antarctic closed at the end of December.
The ozone layer, located at an altitude between 10 and 40 kilometers, protects us from the harmful effects of ultraviolet rays from the sun. In 2019, it had been significantly less extensive: the last two seasons of the ozone hole demonstrate its year-to-year variability and improve our understanding of the factors responsible for its formation, extent, and severity.- Antarctic

Warmest decade ever has come to the end
The last decade was the hottest on record, with a 1.25°C increase in average temperature over the pre-industrial period. Emissions are also increasing. It is yet another confirmation of the trend of recent years. The extraordinary climate events of 2020 and data show us that we have no time to waste. We must come together as a global community to ensure a just transition to a net zero future.- Arctic Ocean

Acting on the food sector to slow the climate crisis
The use of land brings a fragmentation of habitats and a loss of biodiversity that tends to increase the possibility of contact with animal species capable of transmitting viruses to which humans are not accustomed. The climate and health emergencies may seem like separate crises, but this is not the case.- agriculture

European Biodiversity Strategy supports organic farming
“To provide space for wild animals, plants, pollinators and natural pest regulators, there is an urgent need to bring back at least 10% of agricultural area under high-diversity landscape features. These include, inter alia, buffer strips, rotational or non-rotational fallow land, hedges, non-productive trees, terrace walls and ponds,” the European Biodiversity Strategy reads.- agriculture
