Happy #InternationalBeaverDay to all who celebrate (i.e., everyone who likes to drink water, eat food, catch fish, watch birds, live in a stable climate, and not get swept away by floods and/or immolated by wildfire).

Happy International Beaver Day! Every year we get one step closer to having #beaver mecha-suits for everyone. Just kidding - beavers provide many environmental benefits on their own, no robotics needed! ☀️ drought mitigation 🔥 fire resistance 🌊 flood protection and more!

🎶 walking in a winter beaver land 🎶 Did you know #beavers don’t hibernate in winter? They just hunker down in their warm lodge & eat cached food. I’ve visited wintery beavs in real life as an adult & as a kid via my mom’s holiday tapestry (that she sewed w/ her mom as a kid)!

I’m introducing legislation that will encourage non-lethal, long-term alternatives to protect infrastructure from beaver damage, while allowing these important animals to continue their work.

Are #beavers climate superheroes? How can we be the Robin to their Batman? Answer these questions (and more!) by watching this fantastic video from @ATN_PBS ft. host Myles Bess, myself, and @FrankieJoeMyers of the @TheYurokTribe! youtu.be/juFtc_xAjKY
