Happy #PiDay! Here are some pies to consider: If nothing changes, the remaining carbon budget to stay under 1.5°C, 1.7°C, and 2°C will be used up in 4, 12, and 25 years, respectively. Let’s eat up by setting all the fossil fuels on fire.

“It’s a real impingement on state authority here that shouldn’t stand,” said Julie Teel Simmonds, an attorney with the Center for Biological Diversity, before the judge’s initial ruling was issued Thursday. “They’re trying to basically seize control over these #pipelines.”

Steller sea lions are the largest member of the family Otariidae, the “eared seals.” They're also one of the species threatened by the Trump's latest push to open more than 100 million acres off the coast of #Alaska to highly destructive seabed mining. Take action 👉 bit.ly/3OQcITX

SCOOP: ICE has done more than 60 secret flights on Air Wisconsin since mid-January, according to @iceflightmonitor.bsky.social. I watched one load this afternoon. gillianbrockell.ghost.io/air-wisconsi...

🚨 CPJ strongly condemns the arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort for their reporting on a protest in Minnesota, arrests which mark a serious escalation of attacks on the press in the United States. Read more: cpj.org/2026/01/cpj-...
