California’s iconic oak trees are the backbone of our ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, storing carbon and shaping our landscapes and cultural history.
But they’re struggling to survive as our environment gets hotter and drier, leaving scientists with a critical question: How will these iconic trees survive the future and how do we help them get there?
The Nature Conservancy (TNC) and UCLA’s Sork Lab are helping answer that question by leading in the study and application of plant genomics – the study of the DNA of plants – to help determine which populations of these keystone species are best adapted to a rapidly changing climate.
Hear Scott Butterfield, Lead Scientist for the TNC California Land Program, and Ryan Buck, Postdoctoral Fellow at the UCLA La Kretz Center for California Conservation Science, talk about this cutting-edge technology and its potential for making some oak trees resilient in the face of increasing climate stresses at KCRW.

A warming climate and rising seas put tropical atolls on the front lines of climate change. But a new study, led by Lancaster University and co-authored by TNC and an international team of researchers, shows that nature may hold part of the solution.
Healthy seabird populations ferry nutrients from the open ocean to atolls, helping to support plant growth, marine life and coral reefs. Native vegetation, in turn, provides critical habitat for seabirds while stabilizing soils and reducing erosion.
But both seabirds and native vegetation have been significantly threatened by invasive rats and the development of coconut plantations.
The study finds that replacing old, abandoned coconut palm tree plantations with natural vegetation and restoring seabird populations by eradicating invasive rats could help atolls fight the threat of sea-level rise.
In restoring these native ecosystems, we can give some of the world’s most vulnerable islands a better shot at survival.

Connecting science, commercial fishing expertise and conservation to protect whales and support fishing communities 🤝
Last week, The Marine Mammal Center, the Pacific Coast Federation of Fishermen’s Associations (PCFFA) and The Nature Conservancy launched the Dungeness Crab and Whale Conservation Collaboration, a new partnership meant to reduce whale entanglement risk while sustaining a healthy, open Dungeness crab fishery that supports livelihoods.
Supported by a grant from the Clean Break Fund, this collaboration is proof that protecting whales and supporting fishing communities do not have to be mutually exclusive. We can work towards solutions that support both.
With more than two decades of experience building sustainable fisheries in a changing ocean, TNC is helping lay the groundwork for a more adaptive approach to fisheries management; one informed by timely data, practical innovation and on-the-ground knowledge.
Read more about this partnership and how we’re planning to develop solutions that work for whales, fishers, and communities at The San Francisco Standard. Link in our bio.

What does the “Super” El Niño mean for California? How do we balance potential flooding with concerns over drought? What is the future of California’s coasts?
Join us on Wednesday, October 28 for a webinar exploring how we can approach water whiplash: extreme swings between years with heavy rainfall and storm surges and those with water shortages.
The challenges are daunting, but there are many actions we can take now to adapt how we manage water; safeguard our coasts, rivers and communities; and better protect the state we love for ourselves and the generations to come.
“Bracing for Water Whiplash” will take place on 10/28 at 12pm PT.

What happens when people stop believing a problem can be solved? Funding moves elsewhere. Attention disappears. Action slows down.
And right now, Caribbean coral reefs face that challenge.
But scientists, practitioners and restoration teams working across the Dominican Republic see a possible healthy future for these vital ecosystems.
That belief is bringing together The Nature Conservancy, FUNDEMAR and Fundación Puntacana to collaborate as a Marine Innovation Hub. Together, we are shaping a shared vision to secure a future for coral reefs that underpin tourism, food security, jobs and coastal communities.
Recently, TNC’s coral experts from California and the Caribbean came together with teams from FUNDEMAR and Fundación Puntacana to shape a shared innovation agenda. Through scaled restoration efforts, cutting-edge science and rigorous monitoring, the partnership demonstrates how enhanced collaboration around science and innovation can amplify impact.
Together, we find a shared story powerful enough to convince people that coral reefs are still worth investing in.

Every voice helps shape the future of the Santa Clara River Preserve!
We're inviting community members to take a short survey and share their perspectives on visiting and connecting with nature at the Preserve.
Whether you've spent time at the Santa Clara River Preserve or haven't had the chance to visit, we'd love to hear from you!
Take the survey at the link in our bio.
Please share with friends and neighbors. The more perspectives we hear, the more we can learn.

Today is World Migratory Bird Day, celebrating and bringing attention to one of the most important and spectacular events in the Americas – bird migration!
World Migratory Bird Day is celebrated on the second Saturday in October as birds return to their wintering habitats. In California, the Central Valley serves as a vital stop for millions of birds as they travel the Pacific Flyway during the winter months. But with most historic wetlands lost, today’s landscape provides far fewer places for birds to feed and rest.
BirdReturns – a partnership between The Nature Conservancy, Audubon California and Point Blue Conservation Science – helps fill these habitat gaps by creating seasonal wetlands where and when birds need them most.
Swipe through ➡️ to see some of the birds that pass through the Central Valley in the winter months and comment below if you’ve spotted any of these birds!

“The industry knows enough to start acting, but significant gaps remain in testing innovative solutions and working together to scale what works. By pooling efforts at shared mills rather than working in silos, brands can also spread the workload, lower the cost of trial and error, and avoid duplicative demands on suppliers.”

It’s the best oyster you’ve (probably) never tasted. 🦪
For years, many people assumed Olympia oysters, affectionately known as “Olys,” were gone from Tomales Bay altogether. But pioneering hatchery techniques, field science and restoration efforts are giving California’s only native oyster species a boost.
In June 2026, a partnership between the @ucdavis Coastal and Marine Sciences Institute and The Nature Conservancy in California (@ca_conserve) helped bring 125,000 “Olys” to a new home at Sacramento Landing — the first “wild site” outplanting of restored Olympia oysters and a culmination of decades of lab and field work.
Explore the science behind this work and the next steps for restoring this California native at the link in our bio, and if you want to learn about Olys, check out @join.team.oly
