Climate change is transforming our cities – but we can protect them
Life in cities, whether large or small, has always been shaped by the local climate. In Madrid, summer heat encourages people to go out late, once temperatures have dropped. In Stockholm, long cold winters encourage a more indoor lifestyle, marked by moments of social life such as fika, the afternoon ritual centred on coffee and pastries.
Elephants: an extraordinary bond between mothers and their calves
When we think of elephants, we often picture their impressive size, their intelligence, or even their remarkable memory.
What’s Really Behind Your Cat’s Purr?
There are those quiet, comforting moments your cat curls up beside you and begins to purr. It feels like a simple sign of contentment. But what is actually happening behind that soft, steady sound.
REcommunity
A space to inform, share and engage
The REcommunity is universally open to everyone, while also being the community of its founders, Almo Nature and Fondazione Capellino. It is based on the insight that life is an indivisible whole and that human activities, when carried out without limits as today, have a negative impact on it. Hence the importance of placing life, that is biodiversity, at the center of human decision-making and starting, within the economy, the progressive return of profits generated from biodiversity extraction and destruction back to biodiversity itself (an economy that reintegrates what it extracts), as happens every day at Almo Nature, which is 100% owned by Fondazione Capellino.
This is the Reintegration Economy, and the REcommunity is home to all those who share its values.
La REcommunity è rivolta universalmente a tutti ma è al contempo la Community dei suoi fondatori, Almo Nature e Fondazione Capellino.
Si fonda sull'intuizione che la vita sia un unicum indivisibile e che le attività umane vissute e condotte senza limite, come oggi avviene, la impattino negativamente.

Nature never ceases to amaze us
Right now, somewhere in the ocean, a male is giving birth. It is the male seahorse that carries the pregnancy. He nurtures the developing embryos in a specialised pouch and eventually gives birth to them, while the female is already producing a new batch of eggs. Does that sound strange? Not really.
What you can do to stop your cat becoming dehydrated
Cats are the only pets that can become dehydrated even when their water bowl is always full. The reason is often in what they eat every day. Dry kibble contains very little water. To digest it, the body actually uses its own fluids. Many cat owners are not aware of this. And it often goes unnoticed.

Habitat: Currents in and around the European Atlantic
From the Azores to Svalbard, passing through Doñana in Spain, the Wadden Sea in the Netherlands, and the Alps, our journey to create the documentary Habitat2 revealed the vital role of the Gulf Stream. Now under threat, this ocean current helps sustain biodiversity across Europe and far beyond.
From Patagonia to Bavaria: how the loss of biodiversity opens the door to viruses
In the Bavarian countryside, a tributary of the Danube has lost half of its water and almost all its wildlife. This is not a minor environmental issue. It reflects the same process seen in depleted ecosystems around the world, where the loss of natural balance supports the growth of viral reservoirs and raises the risk of spillover into humans. The restoration of the Große Laber area, funded almost entirely by the Fondazione Capellino and carried out with local nature conservation groups and volunteers, is part of an effort to restore ecological balance. Human health security depends on this balance more than many realise.
A companion for life deserves more than a tight leash
A companion for life deserves more than a tight leash There is a small gesture that happens thousands of times each day, in every city. It is so automatic that it often goes unnoticed: the leash tightens, a quick pull, and a familiar phrase, spoken or unspoken, ‘Come on, let’s go.’ The dog lowers its nose toward something that, for it, is full of meaning. We pull it away. It is worth pausing on this moment, because it reveals a deeper misunderstanding about who dogs are, what it means to live with them, and the responsibility we accept when we choose to share our lives with them.
Something you may not know about bees
“If bees disappeared from the Earth, humanity would only have four years left to live.” Many people have heard this quote, often linked to Albert Einstein. In fact, there is no evidence that Einstein ever said it, and scientifically it is not entirely accurate. But the idea behind it is true. Bees play an essential role in nature. As they move from flower to flower, they carry pollen between plants, helping them reproduce.
