My monthly #Arctic temperature graphics are now updated for data through October 2026. Warmer than average conditions were found over the entire Arctic Ocean during the month.

My consistent answer to the easiest and most effective climate change solution: "voting"

Stay informed, and get involved in your community. Your voice matters.

It's Polar Bear Week! I spent an incredible week in Churchill visiting Polar Bears International and seeing firsthand how climate change is affecting this part of the Arctic.

I hope you all don't mind polar bear pictures from my trip that I'll be randomly sharing over the next few weeks 🤭

Here's one from yesterday in the Churchill Wildlife Management Area. Some of the surrounding wetlands are beginning to form ice, & we receiving a dusting of snow.

@larry79115 @PolarBears Yes exactly! I took this yesterday:

I'm up in Churchill with @PolarBears keeping a close eye on the start of the freeze-up this year. No ice yet, and climate change is pushing this later and later into the season. This means polar bears have to spend more time on land before they can return to the sea ice to hunt.

[Zack Labe @ZLabe]

I'm headed up to the tundra next week to observe the annual polar bear migration along the Hudson Bay in Canada and do science communication and educational outreach on the effects of our rapidly warming Arctic.

El Niño is everywhere in the headlines, but ultimately human-caused climate change is the key reason for the record global warmth. 📈

@TimmyNuetron_ Great idea!
