Thank you so much for clarifying.
Although, IMHO, it might be time to ‘reset’ and clear all the photos while properly moderating the group if we are serious about making a positive impact.
As proposed here in this thread: www.flickr.com/groups/flickrfortheplanet/discuss/72157721...
Doing it right is no easy feat. (Like responsible parents raising responsible kids)
It’s even tougher to ‘reset’ and chart the right course for success.
Think of it like my own personal challenge now trying to maintain a balanced lifestyle – super hard now that I'm slightly obese! Embracing body positive image (as in obese is ok) would only make it worse. If I had known how bad chips, ultra-processed food, and lack of exercise were for me, I would have worked harder to keep a good muscle-to-fat ratio… !
My 1 photo contribution, taken accidentally when my father-in-law dragged us out (I’m a city boy) didn’t embrace nature then. This photo was what started my ‘nature’ photography journey, literally it was the ONLY thing lit up that one specific moment in the dark canopy.. so instead of listening to all the French talking.. I squatted down and zoom in, zoomed out .. taken hundreds and selected two

Michel222: they just mean add pictures to the group.you can do this from the photo view, using the "g" hot key or the "add to group" clickable link ...and then pick the group
Or you can do it from the Group page www.flickr.com/groups/flickrfortheplanet/
by clicking on the blue "add photo"
and there are a few other ways to add to groups too (e.g. at upload or via organizr)
djim:Agree with your comments.
Saving our beautiful planet requires a bit more from us, a conscious decision to change our ways, to reduce our impact the best that we can in everything that we do. It's a task for everyone.
Longtime ago, a wise old Hopi noted that our planet can survive and regenerate without us humans, but we humans cannot...
A simple picture of a beautiful bird and a short reflection as a modest additional contribution to this effort to increase consciousness:
Cardenal Copete Rojo (Paroaria coronata) - A beautiful bird with a colourful lineage
Environmental and cultural importance: Cardinals are highly sought after as pets due to their beauty and melodious singing, being these qualities their own condemnation. It is easy to attract them to our gardens without locking them in cages by placing feeders with seeds, so we can enjoy them in full freedom.

Talampaya's rock formations — Silent voices of our living Planet
Here are the sediments of the Triassic Period, accumulated over millions of years in the depths of the planet, exposed during the process of formation of the Andes Mountains. The force of nature prevails in the reddish walls sculpted by water and wind, in the flight of condors embracing the Canyon, in the sky and the pure air of this semi-desert.

Patagonian mara (mara patagónica) seen in Talampaya National Park
Status:
Patagonian maras are considered to be a near threatened species. Historically, maras have ranged from north-central Argentina south almost to Tierra del Fuego. Nevertheless, maras have been greatly affected by hunting and habitat alteration and have been extirpated in some areas, including Buenos Aires Province. Mara skins have been used for bedspreads and rugs.

Calandria —chalk-browed mockingbird— on a tree branch under golden-hour colours
The tree branches that appear in this picture belong to a species known as Gleditsia triacanthos (Honey locust in English, Acacia negra in Spanish), considered a major invasive environmental and economic weed in Australia, Argentina and the Midwest of the US... Just a small example of how some human actions and interventions can have a big impact in the environment...
