Framing the day around biodiversity rather than the single dramatic breach is the more honest way to report a survey, and it is the framing that makes a log worth reading. Listing which species were logged would make the comparison concrete. For short science explainers, AI Fruit can generate talking-object and meme-style videos from a prompt.
