Quietly, Earth is hitting a rewilding milestone: global agricultural land use peaked in the early 2000s and has been shrinking ever since, with less productive areas reverting to vital grasslands and forests, bringing huge ecological benefits. #Rewilding #NatureReturns #GoodNews 🌳✨
The rewilding milestone Earth passed: global agricultural land use peaked in the early 2000s and has been slowly falling ever since, as farming becomes more efficient or synthetics replace it. Lower productivity land is being replaced by grasslands, trees and bush, with huge ecological benefits

More owls in the city = fewer rats, healthier parks, and a win for nature. Time to rethink urban conservation! #NatureReturns #GreenCities
What a hoot! Owl sightings increase in London – and not just in the leafy suburbs
Chances are, wherever you live, if there’s greenery around there will be owls there too

In 2021, 500 endangered African spurred tortoises began carving new life on the Sahara's edge. Five years later, their burrows have sparked a green transformation so vast, it's visible from space! 🐢🌍 #ConservationSuccess #NatureReturns
In 2021, 500 African spurred tortoises were released into a crusted stripped-down landscape along the southern edge of the Sahara. The endangered Centrochelys sulcata species carves burrows to handle these conditions. 5 years later, life has conquered the sand and green cover is visible from space.
