«For weeks, Indigenous People have been mobilising in Brasília, capital of Brazil, to gather, demonstrate and demand their rights to be protected. The Brazilian Supreme Court has been voting on a trial that threatens the rights of Indigenous Peoples to their land and would put the forest at further risk.»

Happy Sunday! We hope you've had a fantastic start to the new month so far. A little over a week in, and we've already seen some fascinating stories about nature make headlines. To kick things off, we've included a feature highlighting some of the photos submitted to this year's wildlife photographer of the year competition. The images provide unique insight into animal behaviour and feature animals who've survived against all odds.
Speaking of which, did you know that four species of tuna have bounced back from the brink of extinction? Read on to find out more. And while that's great news, there's still plenty of work to do, especially on one of the biggest threats facing our oceans. Last but not least, peek at the next story to see exactly what it is we're protecting and the last story to see why protecting nature works. Happy reading!
Wildlife photographer of the year 2021
From smiling cheetahs and curious narwhal shrimp to glowing mushrooms and animal portraits, this year's highly commended submissions to the wildlife photographer of the year competition captured moments you don't want to miss:
Our blue planet is in crisis. The ocean suffers from overfishing, pollution, and habitat loss, putting sea animals under severe threat. But there's reason for hope as not just one but four tuna species bounce back from the brink of extinction:
Every year, we produce more than 200 million tonnes of plastic waste, which is harming people and nature. This is undoubtedly a huge number, but what does wasting this much plastic actually do to our planet? And how can we move forward?
When an interesting conversation happens around you, it can be hard not to give into the temptation of listening in to it. And humans aren't the only ones who eavesdrop - dolphins, too, are known to do it. Here's why they stay alert to things happening around them:
In Italy, Pontone beech trees have secured permanent protection. And one of these trees - said by locals to be around 750 years old - has become a cultural statement in the country. Why? Because of the many benefits this tree - and others like it - provide to the environment:

«The depths of the Mariana Trench conceal many peculiar creatures. This deep sea film is sponsored by NordVPN. Go to https://nordvpn.com/naturalworldfacts.»
«The Mariana Trench sits like a crescent-shaped dent in the floor of the Pacific. A 2,550 km long, 69 km wide fracture that plummets down into a pure black void of the Hadal Zone. At the bottom, it hosts the deepest known location on Earth. The Challenger Deep, 11,033 metres or 36,200 feet beneath the waves. The trench itself is but one part of a global network of deep scars that cut across the ocean floor. Features that formed from a process called subduction. In the case of the Mariana Trench, the western edge of the Pacific Plate was thrust beneath the smaller Mariana Plate to the west, creating the deep fracture. Molten material then rose through volcanoes near the trench, building the nearby Mariana Islands.»
