Republicans constantly justify drilling by promising big economic payouts. But drilling in the Arctic Refuge — a historically protected area — was supposed to generate billions in revenue to pay for Trump’s 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. In the end, it only generated $6 million.

This should send chills down the spine of anyone living near the coast. Wetlands are a critical part of mitigating damage from storms and sea level rise.

[NRDC 🌎🏡 @NRDC]

The Supreme Court has ruled against protecting most of the country’s critical wetlands, putting clean drinking water, healthy wildlife habitats, and natural flood barriers at risk.

This is why we’re striking. The studios are trying to turn writing into a gig job. Eliminating the writers room, forcing screenwriters to work for free, paying late night writers a “day rate.” If we don’t fight back, writing will cease to exist as a livable career.

We saw and heard lots of seals (spotted, fur, and ribbon) working along the ice edge today in the #BeringSea. ⛴️🌊🧊🦭

it’s wild that before Jaws, sharks would approach silently without a cello accompaniment

BREAKING: Alaska Native Tribes, represented by us, filed a lawsuit to halt Donlin Mine, the largest open-pit gold mine in the world proposed near the Kuskokwim River. The tribes are fighting to protect their ways of life, the salmon, & the ecosystem that provides food security.

During a dive in 1967, the U.S. Navy's Alvin (DSV-2) deep-ocean research submersible was attacked by a swordfish that got stuck in the vessel's skin, forcing Alvin to make an emergency surface. The swordfish was removed and became dinner for the crew. #SubSunday

AOC: Let's break down this myth that oil companies need even more permits.. The oil industry already possesses 9000 unused permits on federal land. Nearly 5000 permitted in 2021 alone. The oil industry already has 10 years of unused leases…

All I want for Christmas is for Heelys to make steel-toed boots so I can wheel around the shipyard in OSHA-compliant style

AI gathers information to create art from something- that “something” is centuries worth of artwork available online to the public. Who is being held accountable for paying artists when AI uses their work for its algorithm?

[Marine @marinebiolove]

I don't really care about the "is AI art actually art" debate, I just want to make sure our art doesn't get stolen or used for profit without any credit to artists

It's not just pretty: the #StrawberrySquid’s bioluminescent skin helps it communicate in the #OceanTwilightZone. Its asymmetrical eyes also come in handy when hunting for dinner in the dark.
