    Alabama dumped 16,000,000 used oyster shells from restaurants into the sea. It has now developed cleaner water, marine life, reefs, and restored coastal environment

    Oyster shells are being repurposed along the Gulf Coast to restore essential marine ecosystems. By forming a strong foundation for new oyster reefs, these recycled shells bolster marine biodiversity. In addition to enhancing water clarity through their filtration capabilities, they serve as a natural barrier, safeguarding Louisiana's shorelines against erosion and storm impacts. This project aligns restaurant operations with crucial coastal restoration efforts.

    Identifying old-growth forests in Northern Europe requires common scientific criteria

    Old-growth forests are some of Europe's most valuable natural ecosystems, but they are also among the most threatened. Their role in conserving biodiversity, regulating the climate, preserving cultural heritage and supporting people's well-being is invaluable. According to a rough estimate, only around 3% of Europe's forests meet the criteria for primary or old-growth forests, and their extent continues to decline rapidly in Northern Europe.
