I’m trying to give myself 30 minutes a day to ignore my thesis writing, stop reading climate change literature, and just pretend that everything is okay.
Today that looked like teaching my dog where to put her ball and my horse where to stand so I can reach down and grab it with the chuckit.

But SOLUTIONS EXIST. If we act now, we can help protect the people and places we love.

January 2025 was quite unexpectedly the warmest January on record at 1.75C above preindustrial, beating the prior record set in 2024.

This is despite the presence of La Niña conditions in the tropical Pacific, with the El Niño event of 2023/2024 long faded. www.theclimatebrink....

This is Roo.
Roo loves swimming in the ocean regardless of the temperature.
Roo is definitely not cold and does not need to take a break. Or be done. Ever.

Somewhere in the U.S., there’s a scientist staring at their NSF/NIH grant application wondering why they bother. This post is for you. Science and society both need you. Hang in there and know there is a whole community supporting you.

As expected, the Trump team is already deleting climate info from government websites. In anticipation, our team at Urban Ocean Lab created a permanent archive of 100+ key resources and published a permanent archive: www.urbanoceanlab.org/resource-hub 👩🏽‍💻

Today I got to sit with my oldest friend. Thank you for putting so much trust in a 12 year old girl and for showing me what flying feels like. I miss you every day bubs.

At a time where it feels like we're losing, we need to remember our victories that not only have happened in the past, but continue to exist today.

Thus I give you, California Condor 926 of the SoCal flock.

Great grandchild of Condor # 1.

We as humanity can still do good things.

This is my application to join the fellow ocean scientists 🌊🧪 book lovers 📚 and good humans of bluesky.
You can find me writing my masters thesis, beach combing with my dog, or sitting on my horse trying to escape the madness that is our current timeline. 🖤
Want to talk about fish? I’m your girl.
