The man is ill, both mentally and physically. I don't see him lasting through the end of this year.

A photo of a sign next to a pond and wildflowers, with trees in the background, saying: Developers see 'unused land'. Wildlife sees the last place to stay alive.

Yes, human use is not the only use - and all uses are interdependent.

Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor penguins at risk of extinction Record low levels of Antarctic sea ice are having grim consequences for penguins yet to grow waterproof feathers

Another heartbreaking 💔 reality of our generation in the Anthropocene:

The International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) declared emperor penguins officially in danger of extinction.

I completely agree. I would never want to unseat Jasmine, and they are coming for her, which is partially why they are working so hard to keep him out of the public eye. I am from Texas, and know just how appealing he would be to folks there.

New Navy Report Gauges Training Disruption of Hawaiʻi’s Marine Mammals Over the next seven years, the U.S. Navy estimates its ships will injure or kill just two whales in collisions as it tests and trains in Hawaiian waters, and it concluded those exercises won’t signifi...

The estimated harm to marine mammals from training exercises is increasing x2 since 2018 why? This is excessive and unconscionable. The cost to species is unacceptable.

I worked at NOAA for 30 years, and know Trump’s attack on Colorado’s world-class science labs puts us all at risk (Opinion) The research activities NCAR and the NOAA labs in Boulder conduct are predominant sources of authoritative weather and climate data, forecasts of extreme weather and predictions of changes in clima…

Now Vought is coming for NCAR because climate science is super inconvenient to their fictional narrative.

Everybody should take a quick moment to read this short piece by a doctor who remembers what it was like before vaccines virtually wiped out a lot of preventable diseases. I can tell you it's visceral.

Canada loses its official ‘measles-free’ status – and the US will follow soon, as vaccination rates fall Decreased vaccination rates have led to measles outbreaks in Canada and other countries.

Vaccinate. I do not understand the fear mongering around these medical miracles. The quack that said vaccines cause autism was a charlatan and the paper was retracted. What I do see is a lot of scientific illiteracy. Antivaxxers can hurt a lot of other people.

I cannot even fathom how many bright, curious minds are engaged in research projects across the globe at any given moment, adding to the greater scientific body of knowledge.

Reef restoration shouldn’t just be about growing corals - but also bringing reefs to life, new study suggests Most restoration programmes focus their efforts on increasing coral growth, but rarely ask whether the reef is actually functioning as a living ecosystem.

Excellent points here. It is about the bigger system. This is a challenging ($$$, 🕰️) but vital component to assessing success of reef restoration efforts, and why partnerships are important. Managers are more likely to have long term monitoring programs.
