1/9 🌍 A critical factor in resource depletion and environmental breakdown is #population growth coupled with overconsumption. As our global numbers swell, our demand for resources—food, water, energy, and land—escalates, exerting crushing pressure on Earth. Image
2/9 🌊 The strain of overconsumption can trigger extreme exploitation of resources. Overfishing, for instance, can decimate marine life, while deforestation can disrupt biodiversity. Overuse of water resources can lead to dire water scarcity
3/9 🌳 Deforestation, largely triggered by population growth and consumption patterns, contributes to soil erosion, flooding, and species loss. It also intensifies climate change as trees, our natural carbon sinks, are removed, releasing stored carbon back into the atmosphere.

Very proud of this team effort "A regional integrated assessment of the impacts of #climatechange and of the potential #adaptation avenues for #Quebec’s #forests" is now published

A (very long) thread. Buckle up!

Quebec’s #forests goes from northern hardwood with sugar #maple, beech, hemlock in the south, to pure boreal black #spruce forests up north. Natural #disturbances, go from single-tree windthrow or mortality in the south, to large stand-replacing #fires in the north.

The hyperfocus on carbon emissions as the sole environmental impact indicator has caused delays in addressing other pressing ecological issues.
This narrow narrative, often referred to as Carbon Tunnel Vision, ignores the many other factors that contribute to the health of our planet and its inhabitants.
For example, the emphasis on carbon reduction has focused on plant-based alternatives to animal products, ignoring that holistic animal husbandry practices are humane and regenerative.

Food alternatives will not reverse desertification.

Da ich derzeit mehrmals in den vergangenen zwei Tagen einen Blick darauf werfen darf: ein paar Gedanken zu großen Live-Events und der Verantwortung großer Unternehmen.
Die #DigitalX ist für die @deutschetelekom ein voller Erfolg.
Die Stimmung ist selbst bei Regen ausgelassen, das Line-up bietet vor allem vieles, endlich trifft man sich wieder, die Zahlen stimmen. Aus Nachhaltigkeitssicht stellt sich das Ganze etwas anders dar:
Auch wenn das Event der Begegnung, dem Austausch und dem Lernen dient, so profitieren v. a. die Telekom und Partnerunternehmen sowie ein paar Gastronomiebetriebe und die Stadt @Koeln – zumindest als Digitalhub und Event-Ziel.

Le castor, une arme secrète pour faire barrage au changement climatique ? - Via @_PierreGilbert
Avec les incendies, beaucoup ont découvert le phénomène des « feux zombies ». Il existe pourtant un moyen simple d’adapter nos forêts pour limiter ce risque. (1/12) #eau #incendies
Après le passage d’un incendie sur une zone humide asséchée recouverte par une #forêt, des braises s’enfoncent et consument tout doucement de la tourbe sèche en profondeur. Cela propage sous terre une chaleur intense capable d'enflammer un nouveau massif un peu plus loin. (2/12)
Ce phénomène est rendu possible par l’assèchement de la tourbe : un agglomérat de végétaux morts, très riche en carbone, et qui lorsqu’il est sec laisse passer assez d’oxygène pour brûler doucement. (3/12) #eau #FeuxDeForet #FeuxDeForets #criseclimatique #UrgenceClimatique

"Pour une utilité naturelle de toutes les gouttes de pluie..." Voilà une phrase qui dit peu et TOUT à la fois, en cette période d'affolement des médias et des réseaux autour de la #canicule, de la #sécheresse et du manque d'#eau... (1/4) colibris.link/98dVS
Les solutions autour de l'économie ou du recyclage de l'eau, d'une simple meilleure "gestion" sont certes nécessaires mais TRÈS insuffisantes sans une #régénération massive du cycle de l'eau (2/4)
En commençant par Ralentir, Répartir, Infiltrer et Stocker DANS le sol chaque goutte d'eau de pluie qui tombe, dans chaque bassin versant ET en révégétalisant massivement (#agroforesterie, #agroécologie, #reforestation) pour créer littéralement la #pluie. (3/4)

#2 B-COMPLEX/MULTI VITAMIN. Buy a liposomal or other form that increases bio-availability. Take 1 capsule w/Breakfast and Lunch. If you have stomach upset, try sublingual (under tongue) EZ Melt B-Complex in AM & Multi w/iron for Dinner. amazon.com/Liposomal-Meth…
#3 OMEGA 3s. Fish Oil, Krill Oil, Algae Oil are all good sources of Omega 3. Be careful the EPA/DHA ratio. EPA helps with inflammation/DHA helps with cognition. You need both! Opt for a 1:1 or 2:1 ratio of DHA to EPA (2:1 ratio eg. 800 DHA/400EPA) amazon.com/3Care-Concentr…

Study from @salkinstitute found that partial reprogramming using the #Yamanaka transcription factors (#Oct4, #Sox2, #Klf4 & #cMyc) for short periods of time:

-restored a youthful #epigenetic signature to #aging cells & extends the life span of a #premature #aging mouse model.
-long-term partial reprogramming led to rejuvenating effects in different tissues, such as the #kidney & #skin, and at the #organismal level; duration of the treatment determined the extent of the beneficial effects.
-The rejuvenating effects were associated with a reversion of the #epigenetic clock and metabolic and #transcriptomic changes, including reduced expression of genes involved in the #inflammation, #senescence & #stressresponse pathways.

I am very excited to introduce Interleukin-11 signaling as a global regulator of regeneration @ScienceAdvances! Huge thanks to @ReischauerS’s supervision and the co-authors for their support!
#regeneration #scarring #zebrafish
A thread. 1/n
Regeneration and scarring are the opposing endpoints after tissue damage. Mammals predominantly mount a fibrotic response, a root cause of many diseases. In contrast, cells in regenerative species undergo reprogramming, initiating a regenerative gene program. 2/n
We started by asking how quantitatively different these responses are. After cardiac injury, by lineage tracing fibroblasts and endothelial cells, we found ~10x less scar-forming myofibroblasts in the zebrafish heart when compared to what is known in adult mice. 3/n

Our first paper authors.elsevier.com/a/1cRqD6tu0Cbo… is now out @CellStemCell! With @ionispharma & the Jamieson Lab @UCSanDiegoDRM, we found that selective #antisense oligonucleotides inhibiting #IRF4 reduce disease burden & #multiplemyeloma #regeneration in #cancer models. @CellPressNews 1/ Image
IRF4 (interferon regulatory factor 4) is a key plasma cell transcription factor that is known to play a critical role in #myeloma progression. It's been shown to activate networks of #cellcycle and cancer regulators, including the notorious #cancer and #stemcell gene, #MYC. 2/ Image
In this new work, the talented @PhoebeMondala & @AshniVora first dug deeper into the IRF4 networks activated in high-risk forms of #myeloma, including #plasmacellleukemia. IRF4 target genes (SLAMF7, BCMA) were widely induced, especially among genes regulating the #cellcycle. 3/ Image
