COP30 overpromised, underdelivered, empowered distractions, backtracked on issues and once again gave big oil and big ag a free pass.
Unfortunately, the suspicions of climate scientists (here in Brazil and abroad) were confirmed again.

Paid my respects to the Fitz’s 50th anniversary of her wreck. National Museum of the Great Lakes had great commemorative things from the actual ship. Very cool to see.

U.S. Congress wants to gut the law that protects all the marine mammals we adore – such as sea otters, walruses, polar bears, and more.
Why limit protections for the animals we love?

Rest in peace to an amazing human being and outstanding conservationist. Jane helped chimpanzees to lengths and reaches we should all hope to do someday. She lived a full life of education and accomplishments. May she rest in peace.

Spotted Lanternflies! I’m sure you’ve been seeing a lot about them. They can really disrupt an ecosystem and are a very pesky invasive species. They take over fast too. One of the counties close to me in my state has them terribly rampant. So how do we combat them? Here are ways you can help.

We all know the goal was always to “own the libs.” And in chasing that, too many have given up their own freedoms just to claim a hollow “win.” What they don’t see is that the monster they fed never stops, it eventually comes for us all. And now their silence is deafening.
