Good story! The emissions, specifically black carbon, are destroying the arctics for everyone, human and wildlife. No doubt in our minds cruise ships should be prohibited. End of story! @cleanarctic.bsky.social
Alaska needs to be realistic. AKLNG is far from being the great salvation of the State. There are risks they outweigh the benefits. We need to talk about that.
