Oh please, leave the groundhogs alone to live in the wild not captive for your 1 day a year amusement. Use science to predict the weather. Free all groundhogs!

Protect our watersheds! This fire sent contamination to Black Creek, Humber River & Lake Ontario. They are located on Rockcliffe Court where C of T allowed them to build on the floodplain in the worst flooded area in #Toronto. Get off the floodplain! CofT owns most of Rockcliffe & should get off too

Every year, 10M hectares of forests are lost—fueling climate change and destroying biodiversity. 🌳 Protecting these precious ecosystems could slash emissions by 4 gigatonnes annually. The solutions exist. It’s time to #ActNow for a sustainable future: www.unep.org/news-and-sto...

Environmental Public Health: Keep our rivers free of pollution by saving #GreenBelt #Wetland from developers. Humber River in #Ontario #Canada ideal for Atlantic salmon as water temperature is stable because it's fed by wetlands & lakes north of the city #Toronto. @humberriver.bsky.social

Winter hike along the Humber River Valley at the Humber Arboretum in North Etobicoke, #Canada. So nice to walk on fresh snow through the trails.

Congratulations to Humber River Calling member Madeleine McDowell for her King Charles III Coronation Medal. Her work on the Humber River goes back decades. Thank you Arif Virani for honouring her dedication & extensive work.

Please sign this petition for wildlife and pets. Rodent poison spreads up the food chain and has been know to poison pets as well. There are better options out there. chng.it/C5LNRGHMgF

Incredible coyote sounds at night in the Humber River watershed. What are they saying?

Across Toronto, a team sets out at dawn to rescue migrating birds that have collided with buildings, and keep a record of the thousands each year that don’t make it www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Happy New Year

Salt is the top pollutant in the Humber River Watershed and increases annually. We can all help. Here are a few tips how... torontofieldnaturalists.org/road-salt-in...

Blue birds huddling together for warmth

This is a great way to start the New Year...Come to Smythe Park

This is a huge reason NOT to build hwy 413 or the Bradford bypass. The Humber River's headwaters must be protected. This pollution is heading to Lake Ontario where many get their drinking water. Stop hwy 413! Stop the Bradford bypass! Protect our drinking water. Microplastics are in our bodies now.

Deer jumped out in front of me on the Humber River trail into the bushes on other side. Stopped to look at it, just waiting there 20 feet away. Then heard rustling from the right where it came from and sure enough another deer leaped across the trail to follow the first. #Toronto #FallingForFall 😍

Hello new Bluesky friends! For those in the #Toronto area, the Humber Arboretum offers 100 hectares of public gardens and nature trails in #Etobicoke. For those elsewhere, we offer some nice posts about #plants and #animals and spending time in #nature, with a little science thrown in. Welcome!

Somebody took *considerable*time and effort to write "KITTY CAT NIPPLES" on the underside of the Gardiner Expressway where it crosses the Humber River.

If you're just catching up on Ontario's Bill 212, it passed yesterday. Here's a rundown from me of what that'll mean for Highway 413, the Bradford Bypass and bike lanes in Toronto and beyond. (Spoiler alert, traffic will not get better) thenarwhal.ca/ontario-high...

Ontario's rushed bill to rip out bike lanes in Toronto and block new ones, which passed Monday, also contained this: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...
