🚨 Well the data is back, and as I figured, the news isn't good... #Arctic sea ice volume is currently the *lowest* on record for this time of year. Graphic from zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-i...

And now we know that the volume of #Arctic sea ice also dropped to a record low in October (zacklabe.com/archive-2025/). It's been a historic fall in the #Arctic, which is already a season of rapid climate change. Not good.

Finally, some good news!

Conservation groups across the West are raising concerns about Steve Pearce, a former New Mexico representative who is President Donald Trump’s newest nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management. At issue is the debate over proposals to sell off federal land. Read more from @dailymontanan.com
