Newish paper (i.e. it was out last summer and just now seeing it) out on Alicella gigantea, the world’s largest amphipod. Long thought to be rare because we almost never see it. Turns out it may occupy ~59% of the global ocean.

That applies to dollars. To tons of carbon. And so on.

It appears that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) has, within the past week, scrubbed a large amount of climate change content from its official website, as well as *removed human-caused warming* from the discussion on its "causes of climate change" page.

It's a crap scheme though that benefits higher rate tax payers a lot more.
The self employed or those not able to work can't access it. Also the employer has to be signed up for it.
A govt scheme for interest free loans for bikes and essentials for all would be far better.
