Sharks are apex predators that keep ecosystems balanced. This makes them an essential part of their ecosystem. Without them, prey populations could grow out of control. They also prevent diseases from spreading by preying on old, sick fish. These creatures even indirectly boost coral reef health

EarthTalk: How are green corridors in cities helping to mitigate climate change? Green corridors, or ecological corridors, are strips of vegetation and natural landscape dispersed throughout a city. From simple, street-lined rows of trees to interconnected networks of parks and pathways, these developments provide a flexible, natural solution for the climate effects of urbanization https://azdailysun.com/opinion/columnists/earthtalk-how-are-green-corridors-in-cities-helping-to-mitigate-climate-change/article_db7f83b0-f926-11ef-bf83-b7a06abbe6a5.html #ClimateChange #GlobalWarming #IrreversibleOverheating #pollution #environment #climate
