The Snowflake
My name is "Nix".
You might know me as the snowflake. I am an ecosystem superhero. At any given time of the year I cover about 40% of the earth's surface. Life on Earth relies on me for fresh water supply. When plants need water in the spring and summer, I keep them hydrated even when it's not raining. I also help plants in the winter with my insulation superpowers.
These allow small plants to survive beneath me during the cold winter. Last but not least: I regulate the earth’s temperature and reflect sunlight. Without me as a climate controller, global climate change would intensify.
Help me stick around and I will ensure long winters, great skiing and water for all.

The Wild Salmon
My name is "Salmo".
Most people call me the wild Salmon. Not to be confused
with my farmed salmon cousins, I am a true ecosystem superhero. Some might even call me the fertilizer of river ecosystems. When I swim upstream, I bring marine nutrients from the ocean to the river, connecting distant ecosystems from ocean to forest. These nutrients end up in food webs in rivers and surrounding nature, benefiting mammals, birds and other freshwater fish. I also contribute to about a third of the nitrogen in the trees around me. You know what that means? More salmon, more trees!
Take care of me, and I will take care of our ecosystems.
