More often than not, when you hear about the state of the natural world, you hear allllll the bad things. Yes, they are happening and, yes, they suck. But what you might not realize is that there are also soooo many good things happening. People are coming together to make the changes that we wish to see. Emma Illick Frank is a journalist and she joins us today to be the bearer of some great news. Although, our tangent about natural flavoring may make you cringe. ;)

*Correction: Emma mentioned that condors can get lead poisoning from eating carcasses killed by lead-laced bullets. It turns out, they have to actually ingest the bullets––not just the meat surrounding them.

Highlights

• Beavers are back in the UK after being locally extinct.
• Population boom for monarch butterflies.
• Multistakeholder collaborations, including with the Yurok Tribe, are helping to bring back the California Condor.

What YOU Can Do to Help

• For Beavers:
  • Support their reintroduction to your local streams (if they are native).
  • Don't buy their fur.
• For Monarch Butterflies:
  • Plant Milkweed flowers.
  • Avoid using pesticides on your property. There are alternative methods available. But, if you must, use the minimum that is needed and only in those very specific areas.
• For Condors:
  • Same as above regarding pesticides.
  • Don't use lead bullets if you hunt.
