Every day is #Biodiversity Day at CIB, but today we can all acknowledge #WorldBiodiversityDay2023. We urge #CALeg reps to support #IntertidalBiodiversity and other measures to protect our state's (and planet's) amazing, interconnected species:

Big hearing tomorrow for #AB57 by #biodiversity champ Ash Kalra to start a Pocket Forest Initiative.

Pocket forests bring native trees & plants to urban areas: they improve air, reduce heat, & offer green spaces to play. We hope #CALeg Asm Approps is ready to pass this bill!

Crabs, crabs, crabs! At the California Institute for Biodiversity, we STRONGLY support #CoastalResilience #CABudget funds to protect the intertidal zone habitat of these clawed coastal critters and the countless species that call the California coastline home.

This beautiful, strange, fascinating, cute creature is a Hopkin's rose nudibranch, aka sea slug! It's part of CA's amazing #IntertidalBiodiversity we must preserve, protect, and record with a DNA barcode library database.

We're excited that the CA Senate has a plan to prioritize #CoastalResilience funds, which will help protect the habitats of our favorite nudibranches (and countless other species). We urge the Assembly to adopt the same plan!

It's no surprise to us that California is number 1 state for #biodiversity. We've spent this #EarthWeek in Sacramento for #PowerInNature -- rallying for #IntertidalBiodiversity and #CoastalResilience funds to protect and preserve our thousands of native species!

Day one of #PowerInNature in Sacramento! Our coalition is urging California lawmakers at the #CALeg to protect our state's #biodiversity.

Our staff is additionally advocating for funds to document #IntertidalBiodiversity with a DNA barcode library, as is already underway for pollinators, fungi, arthropods, and soil.

California is a #biodiversity hotspot, but we're facing an extinction crisis. Tomorrow we'll be at the Capitol in Sacramento with the #PowerInNature Coalition, urging lawmakers to protect CA's ecosystems & imperiled species. #ProtectCalifornia #30x30CA #CaLeg

Today is #OceanDayCA - we're headed to Sacramento along with hundreds of other ocean advocates to urge lawmakers to protect #CoastalResilience funds in the state budget.

We're also making a special ask to extend California's DNA barcode libraries to life in the intertidal zone. We already have such libraries for pollinators, insects, fungi and soil - this is the next step.

On 4/12 The Nat (San Diego Natural History Museum) will be putting on its 6th Annual #StateOfBiodiversitySymposium! Once again, they're bringing diverse voices together around regional #conservation topics and discussing current opportunities, threats, and the state of knowledge on our region’s #biodiversity -- including work that CIB has funded. Check it out here:

Want to know how we can . . .

Discover new critters?
Save endangered species from climate change?
Maybe even help cure human diseases?

These things are possible - if the #CALeg approves and the Governor signs a DNA database for the estimated 27,000 species in California's #intertidal zone. We're so grateful to Assemblymember Ash Kalra for championing our #biodiversity budget request.

You can help, too -- sign our petition and get updates on what you can do! https://actionnetwork.org/petitions/intertidal-biodiversity
