North American birds are dying off faster. It signals a human crisis, too. The accelerating decline of birds is a bellwether of far deeper biodiversity crisis โ€” one that threatens not only beloved species but the humans who live alongside them.

Billions of birds in North America are disappearing faster than ever, driven by climate change and industrial agriculture.

Nearly half of L.A. Countyโ€™s pavement may be unnecessary, new map finds Researchers have released the first parcel-level analysis to map all paved surfaces across L.A. County. In particular, large parking lots are ripe for change, they say.

What if almost half of L.A.โ€™s pavement doesnโ€™t need to exist? Less concrete means cooler streets, better water capture, and real climate resilience.
