We are excited to unveil our rebranded identity – Orna, formerly known as Collectz. Embracing a fresh name comes hand in hand with a brand-new app, and we invite you to explore it at our new domain: https://orna.art The name "Orna" holds rich meanings. In Hebrew it represents a pine tree and in Irish, the name "Orna" is derived from the Irish word "ór," which means "gold." It is often used as a feminine given name in Ireland and is associated with the concept of gold or wealth. In Latin, it embodies the essence of adorning and decorating. For our new app, we've raised the bar for user experience (UX) and user interface (UI), presenting a light theme by default (with dark mode support) to cater to all audiences. Collaborating with @lens/paulburke from Focalize, we are committed to continuous improvement. At Orna.art, our primary focus is to keep you informed about the latest developments with Lens Collects and your Lens community. Our revamped front page, personalized "for you" section, and the notification drawer aim to enhance your experience. Feel free to connect and explore. Utilizing Lens for social interactions, we enable you to seamlessly traverse various chains, including Ethereum, Polygon, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, and Zora. Stay tuned for an extended cross-chain functionality, exploring possibilities with Open Actions. Designed for seamless mobile integration, the new site also emphasizes the app (PWA) functions with user-friendly instructions. Your Lens profile zone has undergone a complete transformation, now featuring revenue charts, support for multiple currencies, and galleries at the forefront. Our ‘Collect’ pages have been entirely redesigned to simplify the process of collecting and finding information. We've integrated the Stripe crypto onramp, allowing you to use fiat and credit cards, with more options like Decent on the horizon. The integrated global search feature enables you to initiate searches across profiles, collects, communities, and cross-chain collections from any page within the app. We welcome your feedback – the good, the bad, and the ugly. As we navigate through our beta phase, expect occasional bugs and dragons, much like Lens. Special thanks to the Lens Team @lens/bradorbradley @lens/christina @lens/nader @lens/stani for their grant, making this transformation possible. Support Orna by collecting this post, enabling us to introduce more features and enhance your experience with collects and monetization on Lens and Cross Chain! Become an Orna founder holder with a limited 1 USDC collect, and enjoy preferential treatment with upcoming loyalty actions. Let the Orna journey begin! See you on https://orna.art
I'm tired of December's declines.
I went camping last week. It felt incredibly good. Being alone with nature made me feel very valuable.
Ecologists are welcoming recommendations from the Australian Senate to strengthen legal protections for wildlife threatened by feral horses in the Australian Alps, where they are harming vulnerable species and a unique and delicate ecosystem.
Physicist Ranga Dias and his colleagues have twice claimed to make a room-temperature superconductor. But many researchers question the evidence.
The wildfires on the island of Rhodes in Greece were near the towns and villages of Lindos, Pefkoi and Kiotari, which are towards the southern end of the island.
Fraught exchanges over climate equity at the United Nations climate talks in Bonn, Germany, last month show that historical tensions between high- and low-income countries about who should do how much to address climate change are coming to a head. Navroz K. Dubash
The growing impacts of climate change mean that no nation can follow a high-carbon path to development. But the costs of a low-carbon transition cannot be put on the backs of the poor by keeping people in energy poverty or diverting funds needed for social expenditure.
[Temp Check] Introducing a proposal for the GHO Stability Module (GSM). The GSM concept aims to enable seamless conversion between @gho.lens and stablecoins at a predefined ratio, with unique functionalities added for increased stability. GSM's unique features include adaptable Price Strategies, Debt Ceilings to limit exposure to certain assets, a Capital Allocator for potential yield generation, Last Resort Liquidations for managing increased risk, and Price Bounds/Swap Freezes for handling price deviation. We look forward to your thoughts and discussions on the proposed GSM. Your input and decision will shape the next steps towards potentially improved stability for GHO. Discuss here: https://governance.aave.com/t/temp-check-gho-stability-module/13927

Natural resources, the species that live where those resources are found, and we, humans, are interconnected. The web of life created by biological diversity enables us to reach safe food, clean water and live a healthy life.
I love nature too little to endure a picnic in the backyard, too much to travel on mountain slopes for months.
Nuclear energy; This is the situation that I think will prolong the process even if it does not end, by using our dependence on fossil fuels at a more efficient and ubiquitous level. The more important solution is population planning.
Nature is neither kind nor rude. He is neither against nor for pain.
Care should be taken as much as possible and the good and the useful should not be allowed to develop and grow alongside the bad and useless.

When I was a child, when I was going to primary school, they watched a short utopian documentary called "Letter from 2070". Since that day, every time I pollute the environment, I remember this documentary and feel bad.
It may be to create a collective consciousness about protecting nature. We should create this not on young, adult, elderly, but rather on newborn babies and children. We should tell them about the problems that will arise when we slaughter nature (epidemics, famines, erosion...)
Using less hot water. It takes a lot of energy to heat the water. 175 kg with a shower head that consumes less water, 250 kg by washing clothes in cold or warm water. can save carbon dioxide.
The forest has a deep soul. Go listen, don't give a chance to those who hurt and burn the body of the forest, and those who break and offend your soul.
The carbon released into the atmosphere by burning fossil fuels during energy production or consumption. this carbon is carbon trapped deep underground as a liquid solid and is formed over millions of years. that is, the place it belongs to is not the atmosphere, but the underground.
Plastic pollution treaty: Countries prepare to negotiate details of 'landmark' deal..
For the first time ever at a climate summit, the final text of this month’s COP27 included a “forests” section and a reference to “nature-based solutions,” — recognizing the important role nature can play in curbing human-caused climate change. But it’s too early to declare a victory for forests.
Over the last two centuries, human actions have resulted in rising temperatures, a massive carbon imbalance, and tremendous biodiversity loss. However, there are cases in which human stewardship seems to help remediate this damage. Researchers examined tropical forests across Asia, Africa, and the Americas and found that the forests located on protected Indigenous lands were the healthiest, highest functioning, most diverse, and most ecologically resilient.
Published only days before the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources' annual meeting, evidence-based commentary notes that current levels of fishing, combined with climate change, are taking a concerning toll on this diverse ecosystem of global importance.

What will happen in 2022 climate change? The worst projection for climate change in 2022, is that the chance for the average global temperature to rise above 1.5°C has increased to almost 50% for the next five year period between 2022 and 2026.
Nature underpins our economy, our society, indeed our very existence. Our forests, rivers, oceans and soils provide us with the food we eat, the air we breathe, the water we irrigate our crops with. We also rely on them for numerous other goods and services we depend on for our health, happiness and prosperity.
Congratulations to the entire Ethereum community on this monumental achievement. Remember this historic day forever by collecting this special ghost on Lens
Look deep into nature, and then you will understand everything better.
Light and shadow According to one study, more than 90% of people with depression have sleep problems3, and sleeping too much or too little is one of the diagnostic criteria for depression. In the past decade, multiple studies have tracked people’s sleep habits and mental health over time and have shown that sleep difficulties at a certain time point increase the likelihood that a person will develop depression later in life. Poor sleep turns out to be not only a symptom but also a predictor.

On the Italian island of Sardinia, a region devastated by forest fires in 2021, authorities are pinning their hopes on an array of ultra-early wildfire detection sensors to prevent the same kind of catastrophic event occurring again.The sensors, which use Internet of Things (IoT) technology and operate without the need for cellular coverage, are installed on trees to detect gas during the smouldering phase of a fire, before it fully takes hold.The aim is to reduce the reaction time of fire services to within the critical first hour in the hope that they can contain the blaze before it spreads uncontrollably.“Think of it as a smart forest,” said Reuben Kingsland, an IoT and cloud specialist at Vodafone Business.“Those sensors talk to each other across the forest and connect back to this, which is the gateway that sits at the edge of the forest”.
The clearest way into the Universe is through a forest wilderness.
An intuitive model for magic-angle twisted bilayer graphene could foster ties between the research communities studying 2D materials and heavy fermions, says Aline Ramires in this great N&V

Your voice can go a long way in raising the profile of these issues. Your actions can have an important impact on the health and quality of natural spaces in your local area.
We know that large-scale action is needed to address the threats facing the natural world, including soil degradation, pollution, deforestation, and species extinction. But it’s easy to underestimate the value of our own individual voice and actions.
Be a voice for nature
But what can be done to protect nature?
It provides the air we breathe, the water we drink and the food we eat as well as other essential resources we need to survive. Being out in nature also has important benefits for our mental health and well-being. Nature protects us.
