Bravo USA. 🇺🇸 Keep moving clean energy forward. Make the Strait of Hormuz irrelevant

Don Jr runs the show

Hmmm. Is he signaling that he is going to crash the US economy? Then will he restart it without the US Dollar and instead institute a crypto-based economy?

With #Arctic sea ice tracking at record lows going into the summer melt season it’s a good reminder, I witnessed and documented the first great sea ice loss and tipping point 19 yrs ago #sailing the #NorthwestPassage

Awesome. Andor turned out to be a documentary series.

It’s times like these I’d rather be #sailing. Someplace cold and exciting. Anyone else?

We must Protect the #Ocean
Deep sea mining is horrific.

Please read my in depth story on Substack where I go into further depth on the threats to our public lands and the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge including a side trip on a documentary photo mission into the ancient Gwich'in village of Old Crow Yukon. https://thoreson.substack.com/p/red-alert-your-public-lands-are-under

From paddling Minnesota’s pristine Boundary Waters to disrupting the migratory patterns of 200,000 Porcupine Caribou in our Arctic Refuge, it’s wilderness protection, public lands and recreation vs Big Oil and extraction. Pick a side. The battle is on.

Melissa has now gone through 2 rapid intensifications with winds at 185 mph (gusting 215+) n a low pressure reading of 992 mb, making this the 3rd strongest hurricane recorded in the Atlantic Ocean system. Storm surge 9-13 feet w heavy rain n high tide conditions. Worst case scenario for Jamaica.

Less #Seaice in the Arctic means more shipping in the Northern Sea Route, which Putin controls. Until the USA understands climate disruption, we are at a strategic disadvantage.

Thx Zack. Multi-year thick sea ice is near extinction in the Arctic. Sea ice extent is like the skin of an onion, lots of thin first-year ice. The #NorthwestPassage was again open this season.

Of course Joe Rogan is an ignorant climate denier.

No wonder GOP states banned Orwell’s books. 1984 is the playbook

Climate science is in danger.

Been there. Seen it. Groundtruthed the science multiple times. We’re losing sea ice quickly in the North.

Ocean Watch sails through the Northwest Passage in 2009 on a 28,000-mile circumnavigation of the Americas. Seattle to Seattle. Now a new circumnavigation is underway with the same captain Mark Schrader retracing our voyage and doing scientific research along the way. https://oneislandoneocean.com/crew

16 years ago, I was the photographer and ice sailing expert on Ocean Watch sailing through the #NorthwestPassage from west to east. I shot this image near Bellot Strait as we were putting the passage behind us. Now a new One Ocean #sailing voyage is retracing our route to document enviro change.

Come on Dems. You can fit stuff on a bumper sticker.

I’m definitely pro-Motherfvcking Wind Farms!!

Hey BlueSky friends, sorry about my absence from the platform for a while. Long story, but I’m back. We are in some real trouble in regards to the #climatecrisis luckily my friends @climatechris.bsky.social and @michaelemann.bsky.social are all over it.

That certainly is you Chris! Congratulations on making Grok AI climate information more accurate.

But hey, we’re #ProLife, whatever the fuck that means.

Trump and his science-denying thugs are wiping climate change data from the system.
They are willing to burn 🔥 the USA and civilization to the ground.
The #climatecrisis is real and life threatening.
This shit is real folks and the fossil fuel industry doesn’t want you to have the data anymore.

America’s Public Lands and Waters Threatened Protection is the key to biodiversity, water quality and climate security.

Hey BlueSky photographers, artists and outdoor recreational enthusiasts, our pubic lands and waters are under assault once again by the greedy bastards in the MAGA GOP. resist these efforts. Protect #publiclands

My latest on Substack. I just sailed 3000 miles across the Pacific #Ocean. Ever wonder about a #sailing plan? How our #climate system works? Trade wind sailing? Pls subscribe and remember I donate paid subscriptions to water quality efforts. Thank you. open.substack.com/pub/thoreson...

I’m back from #sailing the Pacific. “Along with ocean currents circulating warm and cold water, this is our natural heating, and air conditioning system, which provides the stability for all life to exist on Planet Earth. Man-made #climatechange is disrupting these natural systems…”

Even sex with porn stars? Oh my

We sailed 2900 miles on Polar Sun and finally crossed the Evans made it into Hiva Oa in the French Marquesas Islands. Spectacular!
