Shout out to my Pacific colleagues from the University of the South Pacific who compared microplastics in ark clams (kaikoso) in the 1980s vs. 2023/24. They found that kaikoso from recent years had more microplastics, and contained more different types. www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

'Increasing Pacific Islander research and authorship in the academic literature' Read the open access article in @pacificconsbio.bsky.social: www.publish.csiro.au/PC/PC25011 #PacificConsBio @sangeetamangubhai.bsky.social 4/4

As climate change escalates, intense storms are becoming more common in the tropics and elsewhere, resulting in a variety of forest impacts. Those effects are generating concern among researchers over potentially diminished carbon storage and altered forest composition.

Timely paper from @sangeetamangubhai.bsky.social and co-authors suggesting strategies to improve Pacific Islander research and authorship in the academic literature. Read the full article from Pacific Conservation Biology here: www.publish.csiro.au/PC/fulltext/...

Environmental activist Hipólito Quispe Huamán was shot and killed Saturday night in the Madre de Dios region of southeastern Peru, in what authorities suspect was a targeted attack linked to his work defending the Amazon rainforest.

Earlier this month Australia's courts declared climate change a political hot potato they couldn't touch. The ICJ just gave them permission to. @roycerk2.bsky.social on that story: drilled.media/news/icj-2

Indonesia is the first test case for the Forest Stewardship Council’s new remedy framework, which allows logging firms to regain ethical certification by addressing past environmental and social harms. However, NGOs have found serious flaws in the process.
