Rainy season facilitates the decaying of organic matter everywhere, and this results in increasing attacks of cockroaches in our homes during this season. It is important to replace your dustbin bags with anti-cockroach garbage bags to repel these filthy species. #fumigation #fumigationservices #fumigationinlagos #pestcontrol #pestcontrolservice #pestcontrolprofessionals #pestcontrolinlagos #RealEstate #realestate #realestateagent #hospital #hospitals #hospitality #education #hotel #hotelinlagos #lagos

Some updates about the importance of Gourd Melon in the desert. The seeds of the gourd melon are a very good source of food for rodents. You will always find the burrows of the rodents in the Citrullus wine deep in the desert. #Citrullus #Desert #Flora_UAE #scienceandenvironment https://lnkd.in/dB2aZaEM

Small farms not industrial farms…with biodiversity

How can we tell the public about invasive species and the risks they pose to native wildlife? And how can we offer solutions that lay people can "get"? This article, which explores invasive species and the chefs who are trying to tackle the problem, provides an insight into how scientists and researchers might think of positioning their research findings in a way that attracts interest, and encourages action. ➡️ https://buff.ly/42M6zeD @scicomm #invasivespecies #sciencewriting #sciencecommunication

We are past the Ice Saints. The days of St. Mamertus, St. Pancras, and St. Servatius (May 11-13) are critical for vineyards due to late frost risks. Popular tradition, dating back to the Middle Ages, has it that farmers and gardeners in the Northern Hemisphere were cautious of a resurgence of frost during these dates. This year, vineyards and farms around France have seen crops destroyed due to severe frosts in April. In the Champagne region, the frosts of April 22-23 caused damage mainly in Côte des Bars and, to a lesser extent, in northern part of the Montagne de Reims, with temperatures dropping to -4°C. Violent hailstorms on May 12 further damaged some vineyards in the Aisne region. Our hearts reach out to all the winegrowers and farmers around France who were heavily impacted. Over the last 50 years, we have experienced a shift in the seasons and our plants tend to awaken more in advance of the spring. At Piper-Heidsieck, we are implementing change that involves working on improved agricultural practices, protecting natural ecosystems and biodiversity and investing in R&D to improve the resilience of our vineyards. #IceSaints #SaintsGlaces #BetterWithPiper #PiperHeidiseck Aurélia JAMAIN, Emilien Boutillat, Comité Champagne Coteaux, Maisons et Caves de Champagne - Patrimoine Mondial de l'UNESCO

Crawfish, Wild Boar and Nile Goose... all are invasive species in Germany. ➡ For those that do not know, an invasive species is an introduced species to an environment that becomes overpopulated and harms its new environment. ➡ The damage invasive species are causing is immense: Experts estimate that the aliens are responsible for nearly a third of extinctions worldwide and have cost farmers and communities more than $1.3 trillion in damages. Out of the 50,000 nonnative species in the US, 4,300 have been labeled invasive. 🦐 Here is an example of turning that bad into delicious good; food truck serving up "Holycrab!" or Berlin Lobster, introducing new foods to patrons looking for new delicious flavours. 🍽 A tasty endeavour that makes our world that much better.

🌊 Embracing the Richness of Irish Seaweed 🌿 "After reading about Marie Power's journey, one quote stood out to me: 'That’s when the penny dropped for me,' she says. 'Marie you’ve been trying to get people interested in nature, you’ve been trying to get people interested in the environment and protecting it and here you’ve found a key that just unlocks all of that because people love food. It’s a way of connecting people.' This resonates deeply with me, as it underscores the importance of linking nature restoration processes with innovative income generation options. Imagine a scenario where the environment wins, people win, and society as a whole thrives. Power's work exemplifies this synergy, where her passion for seaweed not only enriches our culinary experiences but also fosters environmental stewardship. Traditionally overlooked, Irish seaweed is now gaining recognition for its culinary and nutritional value, thanks to pioneers like Power. By forging connections between nature, food, and community, she demonstrates that sustainable practices can be economically viable. Great example of a win-win situation, where the environment flourishes, livelihoods are enhanced, and societal bonds are strengthened. #naturerestoration #naturebasedsolutions #IrishSeaweed #CulinaryRediscovery #SustainableLiving #EnvironmentalStewardship 🌱🍽️✨

🍽️ How are restaurants serving fresh flavours in the middle of the wilderness? 🦁 It's certainly no walk in the park... 🚚 Being nestled in nature’s lap means limited access to suppliers, and weather-dependent logistics — ingredient quality and variety become erratic. 🌱 Seasonal dependencies can mean the risk of monotony. There are only so many ways to prepare the same ingredients, right? 🌍 Many eateries align their culinary operations with the conservation ethos of the parks they inhabit, making it even tougher to find suppliers. It's not just food; it's a culinary journey, and we're proud that our systems help these remotely located restaurants, lodge kitchens and eateries overcome these challenges. 🌿🍽️ #HomefarmCommercial #IndoorFarming #AgTech #AgriTech https://lnkd.in/dGubibBz

As more diners become aware of the state of our seas, overfishing, and the importance of protecting our underwater world, chefs and restaurants that serve seafood are encouraged to take ethical steps to keep our marine wildlife abundant. Chef Caitlin Kennedy lists 6 positive steps that we can all follow to slowly change the way we treat our oceans, one meal at a time. #sustainability, #trends #local #expertcorner #dineplan #dineplanblog
