As Edmund Burke once said, “Nobody made a greater mistake than he who did nothing because he could do only a little.” So please, please do something. We’re going to loose this beautiful place we call home unless we make change.

[michelle @mooopsy]

interact with this if you are under 25 and severely burned out to the point of nearly (or actually) shutting down entirely. i need to feel less alone

If you saw me violently killing spotted lantern flies at the Virginia farmers market today: yes you did

A brief explainer on why people might not like the British

NORTH AMERICAN MOTHS AND BUTTERFLIES, OR LEPIDOPTERA, ENCOMPASS NEARLY 11,500 SPECIES. MOTHS HAVE FEATHERY ANTENNAE WHILE BUTTERFLIES HAVE KNOBBED ANTENNAE. MOST MOTHS FLY AT NIGHT WHILE BUTTERFLIES ARE ACTIVE DURING THE DAY. LOOK AT HOW UNBELIEVABLY ATTRACTIVE THE REGAL MOTH IS

Arsenic found in the water at the Riis houses in NYC. The water is undrinkable in Flint after 8 years. 180,000 people without water in Jackson, MS. The water in O’ahu is poisoned by jet fuel. But the media is focused on shoplifting. We need environmental justice & we need it now.

This is actually terrifying. It looks goofy, but this is an absolutely horrifying situation.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

It is terrifying that one third of Pakistan is underwater, China is experiencing its worst drought on record, Europe is having its worst drought in 500 years, drought in Africa, across much of the US and Mexico and we are ONLY AT 1.2 degrees of warming.

The tragedy in Pakistan is a stark reminder of climate injustice. The top map shows which nations are most responsible for excess emissions. The bottom map shows which nations are most impacted by it. Climate breakdown is playing out along colonial lines.

[Mike Hudema @MikeHudema]

This is what the world will look like over the next 100 years...if we fail to act. We have no time for business as usual.

No time to waste, no planet B. #ActOnClimate

SO BASICALLY THE EMERALD ASH BORER IS A BUG THAT HAS SLOWLY MIGRATED FROM THE EAST COAST AND IS NOW KNOWN TO BE IN OREGON AND PROBABLY WASHINGTON IT'S GOING TO WIPE OUT MOST OF OUR ASH TREES OVER THE NEXT FEW DECADES SO WHEN YOU SAY "MAKE LIKE A TREE AND LEAVE" YOU'RE MINIMIZING-

[Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation @OKWildlifeDept]

Many of the native fish species found in Oklahoma's waters have long lifespans. In fact, in late May 2019, an Oklahoma angler caught a 66lb female smallmouth buffalo fish that was estimated to be 62 years old. That's a whole 37 years past being eligible to date Leonardo DiCaprio.

genuinely the most unsettling noise I’ve ever heard

[ARCHIVED NASA Exoplanets @NASAExoplanets]

The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!

Made a playlist for your weekend hike

[Voyageurs Wolf Project @VoyaWolfProject]

Enjoy a little beauty and peace from the Northwoods of Voyageurs this Friday morning! Sometimes in the bustle, hardships, challenges, and darkness of life, it is nice to take a few minutes to remind ourselves of the beauty that does exist in the world.
