One key new partnership in 2017 for action at both the private sector and individual countries level was the launch of the Food and Land-Use Coalition (FOLU) at the United National General Assembly, co-hosted by EAT. FOLU is a self-governing coalition composed of over 30 organizations established to transform the global food and land use systems.
It uses the EAT-Lancet dietary guidelines and planetary boundaries to develop global and national science-based targets, and pathways towards them. This work will be used to iteratively inform and raise the ambition of the private sector.
FOLU will also go deep into the policy, regulatory environment, and businesses of individual countries. Its efforts will start with Colombia, Indonesia and Ethiopia, and could later include the Nordics, Australia and Europe.
If you're worried about ticks, put up an owl box.
The animal driving most Lyme disease in the eastern US is the white-footed mouse. Ticks that feed on them are far more likely to come away infected than ticks that feed on other animals. The bigger the local mouse population, the worse the next year's tick year.
A single barred owl pair raising chicks can take hundreds of rodents in a breeding season. Owls also don't carry Lyme. The bacterium can't survive their digestive tract, so an owl that eats an infected mouse is a dead end for the disease.
Researchers at the Cary Institute, the leading lab on Lyme ecology, have been explicit about this: "Landscapes that support predators have reduced Lyme disease risk."
One owl box on its own isn't going to fix a tick year. But a yard with owls, foxes, bobcats, and weasels in it has fewer mice, and a yard with fewer mice has fewer infected ticks.
If you have woods or fields nearby, a properly sized barn owl or screech owl box (different species, different ...
