Last one for Tax Day – NOAA 🌊

The average U.S. taxpayer contributes $21/year to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.

💡 NOAA turns science into safety — for coasts, communities, & the climate. It helps safeguard lives, property, and ecosystems from rising seas and extreme weather.

Conservationists + Catron County (NM) residents are calling out a plan by the Catron County Board of County Commissioners to declare a “state of emergency” due to wolves in the County. However, there is no incident in recorded history of a Mexican wolf attacking or injuring a human.

Aside from the obvious direct harm, what's so irritating is that a handful of spoiled ignorant assholes are breaking things that we all built together. They weren't content to own almost everything, they had to wreck what little they didn't own. It's vandalism on a mass scale and has to be punished

i’m very tired of the FAFO rhetoric surrounding the suffering of people in red states

i hate to break it to yall, but no matter your political side, you’re not a good person if you relish in human suffering. people in red states still deserve healthcare & human rights

We do not throw away perfectly good food in this house.

We put it in Tupperware & wait for it to go bad & then we throw it away.
