Southern Africa: Southern Africa's Rangelands Do Many Jobs, From Feeding Cattle to Storing Carbon - a Review of 60 Years of Research: [The Conversation Africa] South Africa's rangelands have always had great value for the country. These areas offer more than just grazing for livestock. They provide services like purifying water, storing carbon and conserving biodiversity. http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TKmlxj #SouthernAfrica #Rangelands #Biodiversity #SustainableAgriculture #CarbonStorage

Scientists use satellite images to study the degradation of #rangelands in Tanzania @uniofyork @SciReports https://phys.org/news/2023-02-scientists-satellite-images-degradation-rangelands.html

I'm seriously into these sagegrouse plushies. #rangelands

I'll be presenting my #research on the 2018 Woolsey #wildfire and how #invasive plants, particularly annual grasses, are affecting wildfires throughout southern California. We used #communityscience , ground measurements for burn severity, and vegetation analysis to see month after month vegetation post wildfire. I'll be at the #rangelands conference in Boise, Idaho. If you're also there, come check out my poster and let's talk. Please share this. Calochortus catalinae for that wow factor.

I guess many in the GN (and some in the GS) would say "That's easy to solve - just stop keeping cattle", or something similar.
