Such a critical and long-needed step. 👏 Legal experts have finally agreed on a unified definition for #ecocide. This aims to provide a practical mechanism to prosecute severe, long-term #environmental damage. #environment #climate #nature 🌎 More here: www.stopecocide.earth/legal-defini...

A staggering decline. Since 1970, North America has lost 1 in 4 of its birds across hundreds of species. This underscores the continuing need for aggressive habitat protection to restore #ecosystem stability for all #wildlife under pressure. #environment #conservation #nature 🌎

Postponing #microplastics monitoring is unacceptable capitulation to chemical interests at the expense of human health. The contamination data is clear. For the #EPA to further delay oversight for years more is egregious regulatory failure. #environment www.foodandwaterwatch.org/2026/06/29/e...

Let me be explicit. The massive heat waves we're seeing around the world more extreme and frequent due to human-caused #climatechange. And these heat waves are going to continue to worsen because of our failure to reduce carbon pollution. Just one of the many costs of #climate change.

#Indigenous cultural practices are fundamentally essential #climate defenses and practical necessities for our environmental resilience today. Recognizing sovereign rights and including this ancestral wisdom is paramount in addressing our #climatecrisis #environment 🌎🙏 grist.org/indigenous/i...

We now know the #ArcticOcean has reached a chemical tipping point. Severe ice melt is stripping the sea of nitrate, vital to sustaining plankton populations. Protecting global food webs from collapse requires urgent effective policy action. #climate #environment www.newscientist.com/article/2530...

All species depend on the integrity of our foundational #ecosystems. The loss of aerial insects directly impacts tree swallows as prey depletes. #Conservation is not a buzz word. It is imperative to avoid irreversible compounding effects. #climate #environment #biodiversity phys.org/news/2026-06...

This is such feel good amazingness. With the many challenges we face to protect the #environment and address #climatecrisis, it is heart warming to see #dogs helping us and #wildlife out. They got us and how blessed we are to have them. All you dog lovers out there know it! 🤗❤️🦮🐾 #nature

Today we remember the beautiful and historic legacy of Black liberation, pride, and resilience. I celebrate emancipation right alongside #Indigenous sovereignty and treaty rights. Let's break down walls of the past and build up a more inclusive future together. 🙏 #Juneteenth #BlackHistory #equality

A devastating reality. "Half of the world’s children are living with at least three overlapping #climate threats shaping their daily lives.” The impacts of our #climatecrisis demand action and an overhaul of liability laws. #environment #humanrights 🌎🙏 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Research shows rising #PFAS in #whales and #dolphins, with mothers passing toxins to calves before birth. This contamination damages food webs and vital #ecosystems. Corporate polluters must be accountable. #environment #conservation #oceans #nature 🌎 theconversation.com/levels-of-fo...

Abandoning long-held forest protections is a profound failure of stewardship. Allowing unrestricted motorized intrusion in critical #wildlife habitat drives #biodiversity loss in the spaces we promised to protect. #environment #conservation #nature 🌎 www.sierraclub.org/press-releas...

We must not be complacent in this unprecedented collapse. A 20°C temperature spike with this massive loss of sea ice reveals acceleration has outpaced politics and current mitigation. There is no time for more failed incrementalism. #climate #environment 🌎 www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

A decline in phytoplankton is a direct threat to the primary biological engine of our #oceans. If the foundation of the marine food web collapses, global #foodsecurity collapses. We must protect the systems that sustain us. #environment #sustainability oceanographicmagazine.com/news/phytopl...

To stop the systemic destruction of our planet we must criminalize it. Recognizing #ecocide is not only symbolic, but it is also the legal precedent to hold corporate and political greed liable. International law must reflect the reality of our crisis. #climate #environment 🌎 iccforum.com/ecocide

#Coralreefs are critical for food systems and #biodiversity, but are also a vast "molecular library" with the potential for life saving breakthroughs. We must protect this vital connection between our #oceans and life on land. #environment 🌎🌊🙏 www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

Our planet is interconnected, our footprint has no boundary. #Microplastics have now reached tadpoles in the Amazon #rainforest, one of our most secluded sanctuaries. It is imperative we end #plasticpollution to protect our #ecosystems #environment 🌎🙏 www.yahoo.com/entertainmen...

We cannot protect our #EndangeredSpecies by ignoring data. This ruling on malathion is a massive victory for 1,500+ species and the pollinators vital to our #foodsecurity. 🙌 A huge step in prioritizing real science over shortcuts. #environment 🦋🐝💙 www.centerforfoodsafety.org/press-releas...

Millions in Somalia are inching toward famine. Drought and hunger are arriving together, as scientists warned. Yet aid is being cut as the crisis deepens. These aren't statistics — they are people. Abandoned by a system that had every warning and chose profit anyway. phys.org/news/2026-02...

UN data shows 6.5 million people at risk of severe hunger from drought

Nearly 6.5 million people in Somalia are facing severe hunger as worsening drought, conflict and global aid cuts intensify the country's humanitarian crisis, the federal government and U.N. agencies…

I am deeply opposed to #Trump plans to maximize logging on 2.5 million acres for profit. A billion board feet annually is not management or leadership. It is a violation of #Oregon's natural heritage and clean water. #environment #sustainability 🌎🌲🙏 morethanjustparks.substack.com/p/blm-announ...

The loss of #Arctic ice is a fundamental loss of planetary stability. Incrementalism is not a stabilization strategy. We must prioritize systemic transition to #renewables and a resilient infrastructure to address our #climate reality. #environment 🌎 www.worldwildlife.org/resources/ex...

This photo captured a soul, not a species. She chose to trust us only to be killed days later. We do not own this planet. We share it. If we prioritize greed over nature, we will continue to see our world, our only home, collapse around us. #environment #conservation 🌊 petapixel.com/2024/12/12/h...

Heartbreaking. #EmperorPenguins are trapped during their annual moult without waterproof feathers. They drown or freeze if sea ice melts too soon. #ClimateChange has plunged tracked colonies from 100 to 25 in just 3 years. We must act. #conservation #Antarctica 🐧❄️ www.bbc.com/news/article...

Recycling failure is about more than inefficiency. It is about habitability and health. #Plastics are a driving critical force in ecological, biological, and #climate collapse. We cannot treat symptoms as poor end management. We must end them. #environment 🌎 oceana.org/blog/six-myt...

By rescinding the #EndangermentFinding, Trump and #EPA are dismantling the foundation of #climate policy, discarding reality with deregulation. Denying science on #climatechange to disconnect from responsibility in managing risks is dereliction of duty. www.cnbc.com/2026/02/12/t...

The Trump #EPA has repealed #mercury standards, recklessly allowing #coal plants to emit 3x more toxin. Food chain contamination, brain damage, heart disease, asthma, and cancer will rise for millions. Profit over health is not leadership or protection. earthjustice.org/press/2026/e...

50% of #coralreefs were damaged or killed by catastrophic heat stress from 2014-17. A massive collapse of #ecosystems and natural infrastructure that a billion people rely on for food and safety. No time for gradual solutions. #environment #climate🌎🌊 www.sciencedaily.com/releases/202...

Normalizing volatility and chaos as a permanent state only strengthens it. Progress requires dismantling cycles of hostility and greed that have defined the status quo. We owe it to the future to maintain a standard of engagement that transcends grievances and hate. #MLK2026 🕊️

We often look for external solutions to systemic problems. #MLKJr reminds us that the internal tools of empathy, patience, and compassion are the engines of change. We cannot build a better world with the same bricks of resentment, pain, and hatred that tore it down. #MLK2026🕊️

Alliances are built on trust, not tariffs on 8 of our closest allies or personal slights to #Norway. The logic of "securing" #Greenland against #China does not stand when alienating our own partners. When #Denmark feels they must militarize against coercion, it is a US self-inflicted wound.
