Do tell how you're preventing the from going extinct! We KNOW why they are dying (ship strikes and entanglements), and yet...your speed limits are voluntary and ropeless gear is not mandatory.

It's very very simple. We won't rest until there are no more human accelerated extinctions. Solidarity with everyone who shares in the struggle. A pox and a curse on those pulling the levers of the extinction machine. You know who you are.

'The North Atlantic right whale Road to Recovery describes our comprehensive efforts to address threats to the species and monitor recovery progress.'

All going just perfectly isn't it.

Road to Recovery needs a bit of roadwork?

And another calf is presumed dead.

This species will go extinct in our lifetimes. What a fucking tragedy that can be so easily prevented.

We are despicable.

Remember when President Jimmy Carter put solar panels on top of the White House? And Regan took them down as soon as he became President?

Yeah, that was the beginning of the end.

Jimmy Carter is a wonderful man. 💔

We probably could halt the sixth mass extinction, but it would be crucial to rapidly replace animal agriculture and end commercial fishing, enabling large scale rewilding of land and oceans, which would simultaneously defend ecosystems and absorb carbon, instead of collapse

Brilliant piece. '...when we stop hoping that the awful situation we’re in will somehow resolve itself ... then we are finally free — truly free — to honestly start working to resolve it. I would say that when hope dies, action begins.'

Time for action.

And so it starts

First, killing fin whales in the Japanese waters. Get back into the habit of butchering them in waters where whalers are comfortable.

And watch for how other governments respond.

Wow. In exchange for $1 billion, Trump promised Chevron, Exxon, Occidental Petroleum, and other oil execs he would increase oil drilling in the Gulf, remove hurdles to drilling in the Alaskan Arctic, and reverse new rules designed to cut car pollution.

EPA admitted that 'farms are being poisoned. Why not stop the land application of PFAS-contaminated sludge?'

Indeed, why not?

Fossil fuel companies SHOULD pay - but this is rearranging the deck furniture on the Titanic. Adaptation is not enough. We need degrowrh.

Scientific work showing that there are plenty of fin whales for the resumption of large-scale in Antarctic waters is in place.

Apart from @seasaver and Captain Paul Watson Foundation 🐋🏴‍☠️ where are the NGOs?

TFA is going to be the pollutant everyone is talking about in the next 5-10 years. Germany is way ahead of the curve. No one else is paying attention yet

We have a paper coming out on this topic hopefully in the next month or so - provisionally accepted
