Ancient stepwells brought back to life as India begins to run out of water Centuries-old wells restored to provide drinking water as parts of the country head towards β€œday zero” when no water will be available

Of the thousands of stepwells that have fallen into disrepair, only a small number have been restored for their original purpose: providing water for domestic and local use such as washing, cleaning and gardening; fewer still provide drinking water.

Climate change forced one-horned rhinos to forever stay in Kaziranga The Indian one-horned rhinos roamed across India in the past. Now, they are found exclusively in the country's eastern regions. What drove the species to the East?

During the late Holocene period climate changes, habitat loss, overhunting, and human activities caused rhinos to disappear from NW India.
NE India stayed more stable with less human pressure.
This allowed rhinos to migrate eastward and concentrate in Kaziranga, making it their last great refuge.

β€˜We shouldn’t be surprised’: bushfires in Victoria push threatened species to the brink The impact of fires on wildlife can be β€˜catastrophic’, with some plant species feared extinct

Bushfires that ignited across Victoria in January have since torn through more than 435,000 hectares of land, as back-to-back heatwaves pushed fire danger to extremes, and caused thousands of flying foxes to perish in the worst mass mortality event since black summer.

As the Winter Olympics Stares Down a Warming Future, Organizers Must Adapt, Scientists Say With an icy white sheet still blanketing much of the Eastern United States after an intense storm this week, it’s hard to imagine a future with less snow at this time of year.

Snow is disappearing, so we manufacture it at enormous energy cost.
With diverted water.
On damaged soils.
To keep pretending the climate hasn’t changed.
The Winter Olympics are becoming a case study in denial.

Long-tailed macaques at export facility, Mauritius; Cruelty Free International

Hundreds of long-tailed #macaques - destined for testing labs - exported from #Mauritius endure a 28 hour transport ordeal to USA on #SkyTaxi. Stopping @JFKairport before final destination - #Miami @iflymia. This is a relentless and brutal trade in monkeys' lives.
