Dredging can be a very destructive practice and it’s implications in this community necessitated further research of its negative externalities

[Channel 4 News @Channel4News]

“It needs to stop now.”

Dredging in Teesside could wipe out more sea life, and local councils, scientists and fisherman have all called for it to be paused for more investigation.

@alextomo reports on new dredging to create the UK’s biggest Freeport.

This collaboration expands previous work completed at the 2020 California Water Law Symposium under Chief Caleen Sisk, who we discussed in Ancsetors which shows how applicable our readings can be. #ENVS5000

#Biologists and #engineers, in partnership with the Winnemem Wintu Tribe, have started testing a new system in the #ShastaReservoir - part of a long-term effort to help #fish better survive California’s hotter, drier future and more extreme #droughts: https://t.co/Rf2IZw7XY8

Cases such as these are why it’s important to discuss issues of environmental racism to new scientist in order to understand the implications for mitigation #envs5000

A train derailment in Louisiana spilled 20,000 gallons of acid in a majority Black community, forcing 200 homes to evacuate.

St. James Parish is in "Cancer Alley," where Black residents face high cancer risk due to environmental racism and 150 oil refineries and chemical plants.

Tighter regulations on dumping oil in the ocean as we know it has negative externalities as we seen with Deep Water Horizon. #envs5000

[Los Angeles Times @latimes]

Accidental oil spills are big news. But every 3 years, ships intentionally dump more oil than the Exxon Valdez & BP spills combined.

The rice whale will not be the last whale we lose, without changes to sources of anthropogenic harm we will see species like the right whale following the same destructive path #envs5000

[Ben See @ClimateBen]

BREAKING: unless significant conservation actions are taken, the United States is likely to cause the first anthropogenic extinction of a great whale species 🧵

I wonder if there is differences in the impact of climate change on mental health has on different generations. I for one would think that climate anxiety would have increased in younger generations. #ENVS5000

[IPCC @IPCC_CH]

Today is World Mental Health Day

According to the recent #IPCC #ClimateReport, there’s increasing evidence that the impacts of #climatechange affect health and well-being, particularly mental health.

Shark species have declined by 71% within the last 50 years (a fact recently discussed at the ENVS retreat ) . The tuna industry is largely at fault. Action like gear modification or harsher regulations must be in place in order to conserve the remaining sharks

[accountability.fish @FishAccountable]

The largest tuna fishery is worth $21 billion. It’s also driving sharks deeper into extinction.

It’s past time to implement sustainable fisheries and protect our oceans.

US military activity has been linked to marine mammal strandings. Will this prompt restriction on military movement in known marine mammal habitat ?

[Noreilly @Noreillynoo]

Ship strikes along side with entanglement are two of the most prominent anthropogenic causes of right whale mortality. Moves toward improving human whale interaction should yield further protections for this vulnerable population.

[NOAA Fisheries @NOAAFisheries]

NOAA Fisheries extends deadline for proposed rule to modify North Atlantic right whale vessel speed regulations for 30 days. This will allow for additional time to gather feedback about impacts of the proposed rule. Comment period now closes on 10/31/22: https://t.co/Qt15lftvBH

The EU is pushing for the replacement of destructive trawling gear. Gear modification and regulations on such a scale has seen push back from industry. I wonder if the US would follow in their footsteps. #ENVS5000

[Oceana in Europe @OceanaEurope]

New report published by Oceana & @SeasAtRisk shows #bottomtrawling can be largely replaced in 🇪🇺 by less aggressive fishing gears, improving #fisheries resources, protecting #marine habitats & improving #ocean resilience to #ClimateChange. Read more: https://t.co/8Ox6hOyx5o
