Outdoor cats kill billions upon billions of animals each year. Cats should be strictly banned from roaming freely outdoors. They cause extraordinary damage, and it's bad for the cat.

Two rare Chilean angel sharks caught as bycatch.

'Sightings of angel sharks have become increasingly rare, & some species have been virtually extirpated from their original distribution areas,'

There is an urgent need to protect them from extinction.

So it turns out bird flu has been ripping through US dairy factories for months and we’re just realizing this now because the USDA exempted farms from testing and even concealed data.

The underrated context to all this is that Biden’s Secretary of Agriculture is a milk lobbyist.

telling how these conspiracy pages are always going off about billionaires forcing us to eat vegan, even while they clearly state they’re more invested in feckless tweaks to the meat industry like this half-baked scheme to marginally reduce methane by genetically engineering cows

This is the most dangerous form of climate denialism. Far more are led to apathy by downplaying than doom.

Corals are going extinct, wildfires raging year-round. Famine, floods, heatwaves… It’s not even 2025.

And they say, “Net zero by 2050. What’s all the fuss about?”

The hockey stick graph. Redwood trees are durable carbon removal powerhouses. They can live for 1,000+ years, and they remove and store carbon the whole time. Saving big trees can help to save the planet. Research from Stephen Sillett PhD Save the Redwoods League

The USDA held back information and scrubbed crucial location information to protect dairy industry. Agriculture’s regulatory bubble is driving us straight into faster spread, mutations, and spillover risk of bird flu strains with pandemic potential.

Hard not to notice the condition of the landscape where this fire is currently burning in Alberta. Abundant empirical evidence has found that clearcut/even-aged forestry dramatically increases the potential for high severity wildfire, esp in a warming/drying climate.
