In Südhessen wird ein Massenauftreten von rund einer halben Milliarde #Maikäfer erwartet. Die Tiere erscheinen meist alle vier Jahre synchron, nachdem sie als #Engerlinge im Boden Wurzeln fressen. Nach starken Bestandsrückgängen durch #Insektizide gelten heutige Schwärme auch als Folge trockener, warmer Böden infolge des #Klimawandel. Regional unterschiedliche Zyklen sorgen für wechselnde #Maikäferjahre. https://taz.de/Halbe-Milliarde-Maikaefer-im-Anflug-Comeback-der-Beetles/!6170395/ #Artenvielfalt #biodiversity #climatechange

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 313 Glyphosate Based Herbicides (GBH) are the most widely used #pesticides globally. Increased use of genetically engineered glyphosate-tolerant crops which allow GBH application throughout the growing season hugely increases GBH exposure with severe consequences for #bees and ecosystems. #food #nature #insects #science #education #biodiversity #environment #worldbeesanctuary #vegan

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 311 A recent Finnish study which exposed #bumblebees to field realistic doses of the #glyphosate based #herbicide Roundup found that the bumblebees' fine-color discrimination and long-term memory were significantly impaired. #bees #nature #environment #biodiversity #worldbeesanctuary #science #education

1 in 5 soil-dependent species is globally threatened. Of 8,653 reviewed — 1,758 at risk, 35 already extinct. These are the organisms keeping your food alive. No lobbyists. No headlines. Just disappearing. #biodiversity #climate #soilhealth #extinction https://twp.ai/4hpRnC

Governments failed to deliver $160m of river improvements including for now-parched NSW wetlands, report finds “Quite simply the environment is the loser along with the taxpayer...The failure to implement what was promised means that turtles, fish and wetlands die.” The Greens environment spokesperson, Sarah Hanson-Young, said the report “makes it abundantly clear that despite millions of dollars being splashed around, it has not gone to protecting the river”. >> https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/apr/23/governments-failed-to-deliver-160m-of-river-improvements-including-for-now-parched-nsw-wetlands-report-finds #water #wetlands #failure #MDB #biodiversity #wildlife #EnvironmentalFlows #ecosystems #rivers #NSW #RAMSAR #governance

WaterNSW criticised for ‘appalling’ decision after hundreds of turtles left to die in wetlands "Environmental flows refer to water released by the government from dams and tributaries into rivers and ecosystems to restore their health. The Gingham watercourse is home to three turtle species, the broad-shelled turtle, the Murray River turtle and the eastern long-necked turtle." "Cutmore said she was “not happy with what’s gone down” and was concerned irrigators were “calling the shots over and over”. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/apr/21/water-nsw-criticised-for-appalling-decision-after-hundreds-of-turtles-left-to-die-in-wetlands #biodiversity #turtles #wetland #EnvironmentalFlows #irrigation #cotton #NSW #wildlife #water #extractivism

It’s that time of year - folks asking us about #bumblebees - WHY THEY’RE SEEING THEM ON THE GROUND - so here’s a thread to explain. Please #repost ! Every queen that survives means a new colony that gets to exist & produce queen #bees for next year! So important to #share! Thank you.🙏🏼🐝🌍 1/9 #nature #environment #biodiversity #science #education #worldbeesanctuary

#theBeeAt3 Basic bee facts every day at 3pm. # 286 Before entering hibernation in the autumn #bumblebee queens build up reserves of fat and glycogen in their bodies. These queens will lose up to 80% of their fat reserves during #hibernation over the winter period. #bees #nature #worldbeesanctuary #environment #biodiversity #insects #science #education #vegan
