As populations grow and fish populations shift or even shrink, it's clear we need more sustainable sources of seafood.

Help us build a more sustainable supply-chain for our seafood! With just a few clicks, you can tell Congress to support the #SEAfoodAct! https://t.co/6R9s2sqoDy

Headed to the beach this summer? Consider this: the ocean and coastal ecosystems have absorbed 1/3 of all human CO2 emissions since the Industrial Revolution. It's called blue carbon and it plays a critical role in mitigating climate change.

Healthy forests mean healthy people. Forests help combat climate change, clean our air and provide life-saving food and medicine. So, on this #InternationalDayofForests, we’re celebrating the guardians like Tuntiak Katan who devote their lives to protecting them.

New federal funding better enables states to document and plug orphan wells, which pose major health and climate threats to communities. This is how the bipartisan infrastructure law helps farmers like Bill fight the climate crisis, one well at a time.

They’re crucial to communities in Chile. But Pacific sierra fish are still largely a mystery. And fishers say they have to travel farther for fish that are getting smaller. But a new tool is giving them the data they need to manage stocks effectively.

New Yorkers are tough – but ten years ago, #HurricaneSandy proved that climate change is tough too. @EnvDefenseFund @billionoyster @ourwaterfront @_lindashi @cibproject1 look back on Sandy's impact on the region & what we need to prepare for the future. https://t.co/7cFXuDfDxb

Ten years after they were devastated by Hurricane Sandy, New York and New Jersey are shoring up their shores. But can they move faster than climate change?https://t.co/JKVtGtIq1E

If a well doesn’t produce a lot, it can’t pollute a lot, right? WRONG! Here’s how small wells are causing big problems in communities across the U.S.

[EDF @EnvDefenseFund]

Antigua is no stranger to hurricanes. And climate change is making them more intense. So how can the island keep the lights on after the next storm? An electric school bus could be the key.

New York is the latest state to put the brakes on gas car sales. All new cars sold must be zero-emissions by 2035. It’s more evidence the EV revolution can’t be stopped. So, what’s next? Cleaning up big, dirty trucks! 🧵
