Researchers at Michigan State University and their conservation partners have helped pull one of the world’s rarest butterflies back from the brink of extinction. Working alongside many partners including John Ball Zoo, Minnesota Zoo, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and the Michigan Department of Natural Resources, the team transformed one of North America’s most vulnerable butterflies into a growing conservation success.

Across two studies involving workers in the United States and United Kingdom, researchers found a consistent pattern: employees who doomscroll at work are more likely to ruminate on the negative information they encounter, and that rumination contributes to lower work engagement.

A landmark partnership between the Wet’suwet’en Nation and UBC is pioneering a made-in-B.C. solution to the global plastic crisis, turning local forestry waste into biodegradable foam packaging.
