What causes pandemics? Nations like china, releasing man made v*ruses onto the world.

Lovely photograph. From within my intellectual cocoon focussed on space and biophysics I had not until a few years ago fully appreciated how people over millennia have impacted geology, though I had grasped how geophysics impacts biology.

there is only one step to pandemics: Behavior. Change your behavior and you change the way pandemic takes.

Your report also shows the importance of indigenous guardianship for pandemic prevention 馃憦 Those in this policy space might be interested in our new report with @IndigenousData, @IWGIA and @ilo on the impact of COVID-19 on indigenous communities: 鉃★笍bit.ly/FPPcovid19

Important to mention also that it's not only human behaviour but also #populationgrowth all over the globe. How can we fight #biodiversityloss w/o addressing our numbers? Especially in industrialized countries: there is no space for nature any more. We need a system change here.
