People asking questions after you talk is usually more indicative of communication success than communication failure and that's wild to me

Nearly every panel I spoke on this year ended with the same question: "What gives you hope?"
My friends, that question expired years ago. (If you need receipts, my book Saving Us is literally a 300-page answer.)
The real question is: How are you PRACTICING hope?
Because Greta is right ..

One of my favorite marine snails on the Georgia coast, the knobbed whelk (Busycon carica), a bivalve-killing predator that lives in sandy shallow-marine environments, but is occasionally seen buried (by its burrowing) in intertidal zones. 🧪🌊🐌

New paper from my @cig-uw.bsky.social colleagues on the importance of direct funding to community-led organizations to advance their own resilience priorities.
This case study is based on a small-grants program run by the NW Climate Resilience Collaborative, which was terminated by NOAA in May.

Whales in Antarctica are starving as industrial krill fishing explodes, hitting record catches. Their recovery is at risk. Tell CCAMLR to protect whales & their food before it’s too late! #ProtectWhales #Antarctica

Ocean acidity has increased by ~30% over pre-Industrial levels due to the uptake of anthropogenic CO2. Pteropods, “sea butterflies,” are planktonic snails that are sensitive to these changes. Scientists have found that their shells are getting thinner & are dissolving, especially at high latitudes.

Not much is scarier for a #GreatLakes fish than the invasive sea lamprey, sometimes called vampire fish 🧛
But while they're more trick than treat in their introduced range, they're actually threatened in parts of their native range of the Atlantic coasts of Europe + North America - that's scary!
