An particular piece I'm proud of is this collaboration with @oballinger on visualising pollution from #Iraq's oil industry, using @SkyTruth and Google Earth Engine to map affected areas and populations that later inspired journalists to dig deeper 13/x

🥳🥳🥳 Some much-needed good news from @OceanaUK !

[Oceana UK @OceanaUK]

🎉 SUCCESS! 🎉 The court agrees the decision to grant new oil & gas licences in protected areas needs more scrutiny. We’ve been given permission to proceed our case! Next year we’ll be back in court to argue why the licences were granted unlawfully. Big Oil, we're coming for you.

A post-U.S. election reflection from SkyTruth CEO John Amos:

[Oceana UK @OceanaUK]

🚨 Chronic oil pollution in UK seas is threatening marine wildlife & habitats. 🐋🐬 But what about the human impact? 😷

@RosieSWilliams1 breaks it down in this clip from our video, Spill. Feel the anger, then take action👉https://t.co/VgUWjD0iEh

As we approach election day, we're reminded of a message we posted eight years ago that still rings true today —

Please exercise your civic responsibility and vote! 🗳️

Can data play a major role in bridging the intent-to-action gap?

We'd like to think so: https://t.co/t2NyyEkMmB

Grateful to work with organizations like @GlobalFishWatch to make data more accessible AND actionable.

🛰️ Satellite data is increasingly being used to spotlight the growing threat of #ClimateChange.

📊 But can it bridge the gap between insight and action? @MSN explores how data from organizations like @GlobalFishWatch and @SkyTruth is empowering civil society to hold exploiters accountable. https://t.co/lZNxHFJs27

NEWS 📰 At #COP16, we joined top philanthropies including Arcadia, @BezosEarthFund, & more in a $51.7M pledge to fast-track the creation of MPAs in the high seas–the largest private funding to date to protect the high seas! 🌊 #30x30 @BloombergDotOrg https://t.co/bRxT5f4rdz

[High Seas Alliance @HighSeasAllianc]

❗New report reveals that only 8.3% of the ocean is designated as #MPAs & only 0.8% of High Seas is effectively protected!

Governments have committed to protect at least 30% of the ocean. We are uniting to hold governments accountable to their pledges.🌊
