APRIL FOO – wait, this is real! 🤯💩 Dung beetles navigate using the Milky Way! 🌌✨ When rolling their prized dung balls, these tiny navigators pause to look up, using starlight as a built-in GPS to move in a straight line.

💧 Water doesn’t come from a tap – it comes from nature! ⛰️ Strategic water source areas (SWSAs) supply water to millions of South Africans, but they’re under threat from: 🚫 Invasive species 🚫 Poor land use 🚫 Lack of protection Protecting these areas isn’t just about conservation – it’s about securing our future. 🚨 We need bold action from key players in the water space. Tag our leaders in government, business, civil society and other actors in the water sector. Let's invest in nature to secure South Africa's water future. #I💙WaterSourceAreas #WaterSecurity #ProtectTheSource #WorldWaterDay

Thanks to the power of multistakeholder partnerships, we've achieved significant wins in protecting our strategic water source areas. 🌍💧 Every action – every drop – matters in ensuring long-term water security and conserving vital biodiversity. With many South Africans still facing intermittent water supply, there has never been a more important time for key stakeholders to come together for a water-secure future. Here's a snapshot of our recent achievements on – AND under – the ground 👇 #WorldWaterDay #WaterSecurity #Conservation #JourneyOfWater Meet the Water Source Partnerships working in our landscapes to secure our water future 👉 https://lnkd.in/dtpa3zap)

💧 It’s #NationalWaterWeek, yet many South Africans are facing dry taps, crumbling infrastructure, and a lack of access to running water at home. 🚱🏠 But here’s the thing – water doesn’t come from a tap; it comes from nature. 🌿💦 Protecting our water sources isn’t just about preserving beautiful ecosystems – it’s about securing water for millions, strengthening our economy, and ensuring no community is left behind. When nature thrives, our rivers flow, our communities flourish, and we’re more resilient to climate change. 🌍🌊 Infrastructure matters, but so does nature. Let’s protect water at the source.
