Follow our journey with the Irish Bee Conservation Project and learn what you can do to protect pollinators near you.
Bees & other pollinators are crucial for our own survival. Yet most of the attention goes to the Honey bees, because they produce honey and most of the other pollinators are neglected. Like wild solitary bees for example, which are much better pollinators than a honey bees.
All around the world there is huge problem of habitat destruction for all insects and animals, our fields are full of chemicals and pesticides, mono-culture is everywhere and there are less and less patches of wild nature with rich biodiversity."

I bet you didn't/don't know where Ouagadougou is ?
Just by the luck that a few friends went overthere, a long time ago, I do.
Of late there is some weird but very hopeful news out of Burkina Faso , Africa.
All with the hated AI voice overs, all very difficult to verify.
I sure wish this kind of awakening is happening, for Africa, for the world.
Who can help in verifying this kind of video's ?

What if I told you that the first fully African-made electric vehicle wasn’t built in South Africa or Egypt — but right in the heart of Burkina Faso, under the bold leadership of Captain Ibrahim Traoré?
500 locally-built electric buses are now rolling through the streets of Ouagadougou — not imported, not assembled elsewhere — but made by Burkinabé hands for Burkinabé roads.
This is not just a technological achievement. This is Burkina Faso latest news — a story of pride, sovereignty, and self-reliance. A story of a nation rising without waiting for permission.
At a time when most African countries still depend on foreign aid and imported innovation, Burkina Faso latest news shows a different way: one built on dignity, clean energy, and African engineering.
From solar-powered systems to youth-led design labs, from smart buses to national training programs, Burkina Faso latest news is electrifying the continent with a question we must all answer:
Will Africa continue to follow—or will it finally lead?
If this story moved you, comment “Amen,” subscribe to the channel, and share it with someone who still doubts Africa’s power to rise."
Africa is a movement of unity, clarity, and renewal.
From Bamako to Brazzaville, from Nairobi to the diaspora — this is where Africa stops waiting and starts walking its own road.
Every story we tell reclaims what was stolen:
The truth buried in silence.
The dignity erased by debt.
The power hidden beneath the soil.
This is Africa, awakened.
Guided by the vision of Captain Ibrahim Traoré, and echoed by millions rising — not in anger, but in purpose.
This is not about blaming the past.
It’s about building the future — with soil, with soul, with solidarity.

Whenever 'someone' tries to convince you there's an easy and fast solution to the climate emergency... beware.
There just isn't one. The problem is too complex for that.

What happens when a study goes viral? After the “trillion tree” campaign captured the internet's imagination, YouTube sensation, MrBeast, raised 20 million dollars to plant 20 million trees. But did they survive? We went to check in on them… and were shocked.
In this episode of Weathered, we get into the surprising origins of the viral “trillion tree” campaign, why it nearly ended the careers of the scientists behind it, and what actually works when it comes to storing carbon and fighting climate change. Spoiler: it’s not as simple as planting trees."
