This is really stupid, and it’s not getting enough attention.

The Trump administration is pulling a working $368 million ocean monitoring system out of the water, equipment taxpayers already bought, built, and sank into the deep ocean.

And they are doing it right when the oceans are behaving in ways that alarm the scientists who study them.

Record-breaking temperatures.

A system of Atlantic currents that may be lurching toward collapse.

The response?

Yank out the instruments and walk away.

That is not budgeting. That is smashing the gauges while the engine is on fire and calling it efficiency.

For what? The Trump administration dressed it up as a “nimbler approach” and “smart lifecycle management,” which is fancy nonsense for “we shut it off and hoped nobody would ask why.” There is no return-on-investment analysis. They cannot show taxpayers save a dime, because the gear is already paid for and the science it produces protects real money and real lives.

The kicker: the same people killing the monitors want to mine the deep sea for minerals. So they are destroying the only tools that could measure what that mining does. That is not an accident.

That is the point. You cannot see the damage if you break the instruments first.

Solar panels have a dual purpose in this orchard. They produce clean electricity while shading apple trees from hail, frost and heavy rain.

We have the solutions. Implement them. #ActOnClimate

BAM! Colombia has announced a historic ban on all new oil and large-scale mining projects in its part of the Amazon Rainforest, protecting an area roughly the size of Sweden. 🌿

Experts say the move could help protect one of the planet’s most important ecosystems—often called the “lungs of the Earth.” 🌎🌳

Nature is amazing. Protect it.

Really good news. Over the last 15 years the world gained more mangroves than it has lost, thanks to stronger legal protections following the 2004 tsunami which proved their importance in protecting coasts. Also vital for fish and in absorbing carbon.

On June 1, 2026, Kīlauea volcano on the Island of Hawaiʻi made history.

Its ongoing summit eruption in Hawaiʻi Volcanoes National Park has now produced 48 fountaining episodes—surpassing the previous record set by Puʻuʻōʻō eruption in the 1980s (47 fountaining episodes).

With no signs of this eruption slowing, Kīlauea will continue to rewrite the record books with every new episode.

Wildfires are creating unhealthy air far from active flames.

According to a new NASA study, wildfires have worsened ground-level ozone pollution across much of the U.S. since 2015. NASA’s satellite data and models help track air quality patterns across states and fire seasons.

El Niño confirmation: @WMO has confirmed the onset of El Niño, warning it could drive hotter temperatures and more extreme weather worldwide. It’s urgent that countries invest in early warning systems to help communities prepare. #Climate #ElNiño

Cities create their own heat. 🌆🌡️

Built surfaces such as asphalt and concrete absorb and store heat during the day, then release it slowly after sunset.

Designing cooler, greener, more inclusive cities is now a public health priority.🏙️

A huge Saharan dust plume is stretching across the Atlantic ocean. These plumes transport nutrients to the Amazon and Atlantic Ocean, influence cloud formation, and can even suppress hurricane development. The Earth is far more interconnected than most appreciate.
