Lots of folks captioning aurora photos like "for a few minutes we didn't think about politics" guess I'm built different, every time I'm out trying to see night sky stuff I frequently think about how much light pollution is entirely preventable with just a tiny bit of regulation

If guaranteeing essentials sounds radical, it speaks to how far we have drifted from democracy‘s core promises. Markets will not beat back the far right. An antifascist economics might. Mamdani provides a playbook for democrats around the world. My latest

@‌USFWS announced they are walking away from their commitment to develop a National Gray Wolf Recovery Plan—originally promised for release this December. We cannot let this happen. Spread the word and head to TeamWolf.Org to take action TODAY.

Wolves are not just animals; they are cornerstones of healthy ecosystems. H.R. 845 disregards this intrinsic value, threatening both our natural balance & economic well-being. Congress, we implore you to recognize the true worth of these American symbols: OPPOSE H.R. 845 #NoHR845

America will never forgive itself for allowing one of the most beautiful places on Earth to be turned into yet another oil field just so Trump and his billionaire buddies can make billions more Once its gone - its gone forever - Alaska

Trump's dream of an Alaskan oil boom is feeling more like a bust

China’s CO2 emissions have been flat or falling for past 18 months, analysis finds

I know I've said this before, but from advertorials to false equivalence the media really needs to own up to its role in warping the climate issue. www.thenation.com/article/envi...

NEW: Records obtained by @desmog.com and @geoffdembicki.bsky.social detail how Exxon helped fund and spread climate change denial in Latin America — a stunning revelation ahead of #COP30 in Belém, Brazil.

Love to see it!!!

Ahhh, time as it should be… there’s something about standard time that just feels right

The Trump admin says CO can't get wolves from Canada bc of their ESA status. Instead, CO must get them from US Rocky Mountain states, most of which have declined to participate in reintroduction. The move effectively cancels the program. But does this mean if wolves are delisted, all bets are off? 🌎

"Americans broadly support the restoration of wildlife, including large predators ... Going the distance will require sustained collaboration and investment in the communities we are asking to live alongside these animals." 🌎

Krill can remove as much as 23 megatons of c02 from the atmosphere annually. and supports the diets of several whale species, including the largest animals to ever exist, seabirds, seals, and more. Now humans are taking that krill threatening marine life www.popsci.com/environment/...

The Trump administration is opening the entire 1.56 million acres of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge’s coastal plain to oil and gas drilling. This area is home to diverse wildlife including polar bears, caribou, and migratory birds.​

Colorado’s wolves are home again—thanks to voters who demanded their return. But the real test lies ahead: whether Colorado can turn a political mandate into lasting coexistence. Step up for wolves—and take action—at TeamWolf.Org.

America’s biggest offshore wind farm will be online in 6 months. Dominion Energy’s 2.6 GW project off Virginia’s coast is progressing fast. The utility has a new, more definitive target to plug into the grid: March 2026. grist.org/energy/ameri... #Wind #Ocean #Virginia #Climate #Energy

"What does nature feel like to you: Is it the warm tropical waters of the Canaveral National Seashore against your legs? Or is it the gritty pebbles in your shoes as you hike some unexplored trail? Maybe it’s not a physical sensation at all, but an emotional feeling in the presence of an animal?" 🌎

So the Trump administration's concern for whales was all just a ruse?? Shockerrrrr 🌎

Do we, as New Yorkers, think that Boston is better than us? If the sleepy town up the coast where the bars close early is pleasant enough to keep the wealthy despite higher taxes, the global center of culture and finance can do it way better. NEW YAWK NUMBAH ONE, BABY!

yeah this is a much more egregious form of vandalism than the ballroom thing

Months before catastrophic floods swept through an Alaska Native village on Sunday, the Trump administration canceled a $20 million grant meant to protect the community from extreme flooding. At the time, the EPA administrator said he was eliminating "wasteful DEI and Environmental Justice grants."

Its not monsters from outer space Its humans scraping the bottom floor and sucking up every life form that exists, leaving nothing Fish often in vain flee for their lives Also releases 370 million metric tons of planet-warming c02 every year, roughly same as running 100 coal power plants

Decades of data confirm what we’ve long known—killing wolves doesn’t protect livestock. It’s outdated, unscientific & makes conflicts worse. It's time to follow the science & use real solutions. Read more: bit.ly/4pTnLd7 Act now: teamwolf.org

A new IUCN report showcases the importance of large-scale conservation initiatives, including the Yellowstone to Yukon region. 12 case studies dive into how large-scale, connected conservation is securing a thriving future for nature and people alike. Read more:

The Boundary Waters is an irreplaceable ecosystem of interconnected islands, lakes, and rivers.​ But a proposed sulfide-ore copper mine could bring irreversible pollution to the rivers and streams flowing into these treasured waters. ​

MT lawmakers are suing to make it easier to kill wolves. Yes- you read that right. Once again, wolves are being treated as targets instead of the vital, intelligent keystone species they are. Science and ethics must guide management. Wolves deserve better. www.ktvh.com/news/montana...

“Putting new, expensive roads into hard-to-reach areas will erode and pollute the water supply. It just doesn’t make any sense. We are losing this land rapidly. If we don’t conserve it, we will lose it.” ~Former USFS Chief Mike Dombeck www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Jane Goodall spoke to Netflix in an interview that was withheld for several months until she died — and that conversation is now Episode 1 of a new series that debuted on Friday. More episodes are in the vault, but their subjects are unknown, for now.

Fossil Fuel advocates have tried to slander Washington's cap-and-invest program, with one recent initiative legislative effort to cancel the program. But it's succeeding and bringing in revenue, as intended. Could this offer a blueprint for the country to follow? by @nickengelfried.bsky.social

“This is very close to being a worst case scenario. Parks will remain open with only a skeleton crew of only “excepted” staff,” by @wessiler.bsky.social 🌎

As more Americans than ever enjoy our National Parks, this admin seems set on undermining the work of the NPS.

As I was just saying…

Are US Administration worries about #offshorewind valid? South Fork Wind now has a year’s operating experience, Orsted has released a report on it, and @justingerdes.bsky.social has a quick-read summary—a factual, data-based alternative to today’s government propaganda.

"The goal, it seems, is to cripple the agency with both direct and indirect blows. The result, if the administration succeeds, will be a diminished Forest Service that would be unrecognizable to Gifford Pinchot." - @landdesk.bsky.social on the Forest Service under Trump: www.hcn.org/articles/tru...

"I would say we will be back — but do not wait for us," says @schatz.bsky.social. Global decarbonization is happening with or without the United States, Heatmap House panelists warn:

“It’s clear that the American people are speaking with one voice,” Weiss says. “And this is not a partisan issue. This is not a state by state issue. This is unanimous. Americans are telling the Forest Service: ‘Don’t do this.’” via @outdoorlife.com

Many Wyoming residents have expressed opposition to Trump's plan to eliminate the 2001 Forest Service Roadless Rule. Some carry on their families' conservation legacies as they advocate for landscapes that nurture wildlife, clean air and water.
