Huge Data! Measurements of 12.5 Million individual salmon over 40+ years reveal that "salmon are getting smaller, affecting people and ecosystems". It was great to be a part of this huge effort led by @KristaOke and @EricPalkovacs and many others.

I'm learning and I really appreciate informative resources on antiracism. This one is on antiracism for educators.

"The opposite of racist isn't 'not racist.' It is 'anti-racist." (Ibram X. Kendi, How to be an Antiracist). #antiracist

Contact your local officials to ask them how they plan to affect change. Call them. Email them. Let them know you will no longer tolerate #RacismInAmerica and #PoliceBrutality.

Some good and some bad news:
1) I’m going to be on a PBS special tomorrow called American Spring Live 8pm eastern- I’ll be investigating a black bear den and cuddling newborn cubs. Tune in!
