The @WashPost has now laid off its Asia editor, its New Delhi bureau chief, its Sydney bureau chief, its Cairo bureau chief, the entire Middle East reporting team, China correspondents, Iran correspondents, Turkey correspondents, and many more. The world is becoming less America-centric by the minute while the United States is becoming more America-centric than ever. It is just a depressing yet somehow perfect summation of our current moment that one of the most important newspapers in the history of the country - one that has actually shaped the history of the United States - doesn't think reporting on the world is of any use anymore. What an utterly perfect encapsulation of where we have arrived.
With ~10 weeks still to go, 22 North Atlantic right whale calves have already been documented this season—the highest in 15 years. More than numbers, these calves represent resilience, determination, and the legacy of decades of conservation work. https://t.co/gBuT0gYyV9

BREAKING! The SECOND mother and calf pair of North Atlantic right whales has been spotted by @CMAquarium. Mom #3360/Horton was seen with her 3rd known calf, after sadly losing her previous two calves. Horton is more than 21 years old, and continuing to help her species survive.
The global challenges of #climatechange and #biodiversity loss are undeniably linked. New IFAW report highlights need for integration of wildlife conservation into national climate action plans, particularly in #Africa and least developed countries: https://t.co/iWGGJ4q7Ka #COP28

So if we act together to safeguard our precious planet, the welfare of all our people will surely follow."

As climate change creates scarce natural resources for people & animals, it becomes even more challenging to live free of conflict. So how do we find a solution? We must work in partnership, not in competition with others to make powerful change. Read on: https://t.co/NyUCbNlcpH
