Everything We Know About the Neon Orange Shark Discovered in Costa Rica It's just a nurse shark, but it has creepy white eyes and bright orange skin. Now, scientists think they finally know why.

Don’t flush goldfish, they just keep growing!

Germany just activated its largest ever solar installation — one farm, 1.5 million homes, zero carbon. The #CottbusSolarPark covers 3,500 hectares and produces 2.1 tw-hours annually, replacing two coal plants that operated on this same land until 2022. #SolarPower #ActOnClimate #Renewables

This is such an infuriating read! These unelected corrupt bullies in robes are why the US currently can’t have nice things…

The ocean off California keeps breaking heat records The marine heat wave of 2026 is simmering the Pacific Ocean off the coast of California, and experts are warning that it could lead to a warm, humid and stormy summer.

We acknowledge that more than 90% of the heat from global warming has gone into the ocean but then act surprised when this happens.

Brazil creates the South Atlantic's largest marine park | Conservation International Conservation International helped secure a million-hectare marine park, two decades in the making.

Brazil has created the South Atlantic’s largest marine protected area, spanning about one million hectares. Supported by Conservation International, the reserve—roughly the size of Jamaica—aims to safeguard biodiversity, fisheries, and critical ocean ecosystems.

This is a frightening map, especially given the fact that this is normally near the peak in snowpack across the West. There are many far-reaching consequences from this historic snow drought, ranging from increasing risk of summer wildfires to major water concerns.

Finally a valid use of it haha!

Reminder, the AMOC keeps Europe relatively habitual, transports heat & energy, and is a key mechanism in thermohaline circulation (i.e. ocean conveyor belt).

This is kinda horrifying!! A stagnant ocean would have dire consequences for the planet…

Oof…good luck! Think waters heating up all over…

El Niño coming in hot…hold on to your butts…

Characterizing the Unique Chemical Imprint of On‐Axis, Lower‐Temperature Hydrothermal Flow to the Deep Ocean (Southern East Pacific Rise, 16.5°–18.0°S) Lower temperature hydrothermal venting is widespread along the Southern East Pacific Rise, averaging 28 sites per 100 km Isolated lower temperature vent sites provide unique chemical fluxes to th...

Pretty sure that penguins are actually called ‘ice chickens’…

‘A national scandal’: trawlers scour seabeds of supposedly protected UK waters ‘Precious ocean life is being pushed to the brink’ say campaigners, arguing that overfished marine areas are ‘protected only on paper’

Regardless of the issue, it's always the same story: commercial interests allowed to ride roughshod over everything and everyone else. Faced with the urgent need for action, successive governments twiddle their thumbs.

The ‘hidden’ toxic impacts of tech aren’t really hidden for everyone. For some it’s at their backyard…

Holy New York.

Belugas are the only cetaceans that can move their heads freely, giving them a unique edge in navigating icy waters and finding food.

Original post

Earth being ‘pushed beyond its limits’ as energy imbalance reaches record high State of the Climate report finds Earth’s energy has moved dangerously out of balance, with oceans absorbing vast majority of trapped heat

Some climate change facts:

2015–2025 = hottest decade observed

🌊 ~90% of excess heat stored in the oceans

Heat gain ≈ 18× global energy use

Rate is accelerating, not stabilizing

This isn’t just warming; it’s a system moving further out of equilibrium

If we made the green energy transition this war would be unthinkable and these authoritarians wouldn’t be in power — not in the US, not in Iran, not in Saudi Arabia, not in Russia. Hydrocarbons are killing our freedom and just plain killing us.

Just stunning! It reminded me of a pteropod swimming in a bioluminescent ocean.

Fifty years after New Zealand stopped whaling, humpback population showing signs of recovery Breeding is getting more competitive, suggesting the population is growing, a new study shows.

This is a marvelous change not only for the Humpback whale 🐋 population but for all of us. We need to keep our gentle giants from going extinct.

'There are so many bones everywhere': The whale graveyards that transform the deep sea A photographer captured this extraordinary site where whales' bodies lie in the shallows, with troubling repercussions for the deep oceans.

@kathlanpher.bsky.social has written a great article for the BBC about a photography expedition to film at a shallow #whale graveyard near Tasiilaq, Greenland. There are around 20 #minkewhale skeletons here, 15 feet belöw the pack ice

Cape point and the botanical gardens outside of Cape Town are amazing!

Mushrooms turn dead wood into food and medicine which is better than anything any tech start up has ever done

Olympics Dog was chasing the motorized camera they have to capture the competitors at the finish line, then decided to chase some competitors instead

Yes,,, your boy has taken a ride in the 4 man bobsled,,, but im an adrenaline junkie and needed to try skeleton. And now I’ve officially joined the team and am gonna try to start competing.

66 years old going 66 mph.

Nice to see there is still some hope for peace. 🪻 Totally love how happy their adopted dog is too ☺️
