🌍🇦🇲 A new international initiative launched from Yerevan to advance species recovery
Ahead of COP17, the Coalition of Action to Recover Endangered Species (CARES) was officially launched in Yerevan under the joint leadership of Armenia and Colombia.
Sixteen countries have joined as founding participants, with the aim of accelerating practical action to prevent extinctions and support the recovery of threatened species.
The initiative has also received public support from actor, environmentalist and Re:wild founder Leonardo DiCaprio, who highlighted the importance of achieving measurable results for species recovery.
International efforts are also being supported by the Bezos Earth Fund. Through the Phoenix Species Project, implemented together with Re:wild, an initial USD 500 million commitment will support the recovery of 100 species that are Critically Endangered or Extinct in the Wild across 30 countries.
This cooperation emerging in Yerevan brings together governments, the scientific community, conservation organizations and philanthropic partners around a shared goal: moving from preventing extinction to enabling species recovery.

Sharif University of Technology (founded as Arya Mehr University in 1966) is an icon of modernization and progress in Iran. Its alumni include the first woman to win the Field Medal in Mathematics, Maryam Mirzakhani. It has been a national symbol of achievement, gaining international recognition for the quality of its graduates, large number who have been admitted into the very best engineering programs in the West. The aim of this kind of wonton destruction could only be the nation of Iran itself.

Independent Iranian musician Ali Ghamsari is camping at Damavand Power Plant, Tehran’s primary electricity provider. He'll stay there to play music to prevent strikes on #Iran’s infrastructure. He urged int'l artists to join the campaign & help "keep the lights on in every home."

Talk of bombing Iran “back to the stone ages where they belong” angers Iranians deeply proud of their 2,500-year history. And by targeting reform-era foreign minister Kamal Kharazi, where is the diplomatic off-ramp? Or is America heading for a constant war footing?

Cutting off humanitarian aid to millions of civilians is a war crime. That is exactly what the extremist Netanyahu government is doing now to Palestinians in Gaza.
I’ve introduced resolutions to block billions in offensive arms sales to Israel & will demand votes on these bills.

The University is now activating its shelter-in-place protocol. All community members on the Malibu campus are directed to shelter in place in the Tyler Campus Center or Payson Library. Despite any evacuation orders from Malibu city or surrounding areas, the University community should follow University instructions. We do not evacuate the campus even when surrounding areas might - this shelter-in-place protocol is approved by LA County Fire and executed with their cooperation.

I call on advertising & PR companies to stop acting as enablers to planetary destruction by working for the fossil fuel industry.
Stop taking on new fossil fuel clients & set out plans to drop your existing ones.
They are poisoning our planet & they are toxic for your brand.

The seven angels killed on a @WCKitchen mission in Gaza on Monday were the best of humanity.
The Israeli government needs to open more land routes for food and medicine today. It needs to stop killing civilians and aid workers today. It needs to start the long journey to peace today.
You cannot save the hostages by bombing every building in Gaza. You cannot win this war by starving an entire population. nytimes.com/2024/04/03/opini…
