Arthur Booker+FollowWhy Your Soy Latte Could Get Pricier SoonHeads up, soy milk fans: UK supermarkets like Tesco and Sainsbury’s are pushing back after big soy traders ditched a deal that kept Amazon deforestation in check. If the industry can’t agree on new rules, your favorite plant-based foods could end up linked to rainforest destruction—and that’s a recipe for higher prices and eco-anxiety at the checkout. Time to check those labels! #Business #Industry #AmazonRainforest00Share
Zachary Gutierrez+FollowGiant Anaconda Species Found in the Wild!Will Smith and a team of scientists just stumbled on a brand new species of giant green anaconda in the Amazon—and the footage is unreal. This snake is massive (think: small SUV size) and could be the biggest in the world. Turns out, what we thought was one species is actually two, split by 10 million years of evolution. The wildest part? Smith helped collect a scale for science. Would you get that close? #Science #Anaconda #AmazonRainforest73Share
Joshua Townsend+FollowAmazon Bees Just Got Legal Rights?!Did you know stingless bees in the Amazon are now some of the first insects to get legal rights? Peru is leading the way, thanks to scientists and Indigenous leaders who pushed for laws to protect these tiny pollinators. Not only do these bees keep the rainforest alive, but their honey is packed with medicinal superpowers. This could totally change how we treat nature—and maybe even how we treat bugs! #Pets #AmazonRainforest #StinglessBees00Share
Kristin Shaw+FollowAmazon Rainforest's Climate Drama: Why It MattersHere’s a wild coffee break fact: The Amazon rainforest is heating up so much that it could soon hit a climate not seen in 10 million years. That means longer, hotter dry spells, and trees just can’t keep up—they’re basically getting too thirsty and stressed to survive. If this keeps up, fast-growing trees will die off first, changing the whole forest vibe. The big takeaway? Our daily choices (like cutting emissions) could help slow this down. The Amazon’s future is literally in our hands! #Business #Industry #AmazonRainforest01Share
