A massive Norwegian salmon farm is planned near Acadia National Park, threatening Frenchman Bay with noise, light pollution, boat traffic, and billions of gallons of daily waste.

This facility, projected to produce half of Eastern Canada's salmon, risks introducing disease and parasites, often requiring vast amounts of harmful pesticides and chemicals.

Join us in urging Governor Janet Mills to publicly oppose this project and protect Maine’s coastal way of life. Take action: https://www.Oceana.org/SaveMaine

Shipping traffic in the Santa Barbara Channel and along the California coast significantly contributes to air pollution and fatal strikes on endangered blue, humpback, and fin whales. The voluntary Vessel Speed Reduction (VSR) program encourages vessels to slow to 10 knots or less, effectively reducing pollution, whale strikes, and ocean noise.

Sean, the resource protection coordinator at Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary since 1997, develops policies and programs to address impacts from various uses. He also manages emergency response, enforcement, and community relations. Sean was instrumental in establishing marine protected area networks to restore fish and invertebrate populations and habitats within the sanctuary and state waters.

President Biden must fulfill his promise to ban new federal fossil fuel leasing. This crucial step is essential to protect our climate, lands, oceans, and communities from further harm.

The pollution from existing oil and gas fields already threatens to push global warming past 1.5 degrees Celsius. We cannot afford any new leasing, making public lands and waters the ideal place for the President to take immediate, bold action against fossil fuel expansion.

President Biden must fulfill his promise to ban new federal fossil fuel leasing. This action is crucial for protecting our climate, lands, oceans, and communities from further harm.

Pollution from existing oil and gas fields alone, if fully developed, risks pushing global warming past 1.5 degrees Celsius. We cannot afford any new leasing. Public lands and waters offer the natural and immediate opportunity for President Biden to take bold action and end fossil fuel expansion.

Climate change severely impacts regions like the Gulf of Mexico, threatening livelihoods. Young people, disproportionately affected, are leading the fight for environmental policy but are often excluded from critical solution discussions. Including diverse young environmentalists is crucial for effective action.

Armon Alex, a young climate activist, co-founded the Gulf of Mexico Youth Climate Summit and Project WAVES, a student-led water quality initiative. He empowers young leaders in climate communication and serves on Corpus Christi's Environmental Task Force. Maggie Peacock, also a co-founder of the Gulf of Mexico Youth Climate Summit, works with youth organizations and hosts community events. Both advocate for diverse perspectives in global climate solutions.

Charlton Shackleton is addressing the underrepresentation of equatorial regions in climate change funding. Commemorating his ancestor Sir Ernest Shackleton, he will lead a 2022 expedition to the South Pole, personally transporting climate scientists for research. This unique initiative aims to support those most impacted by climate change.

As an Antarctic Explorer and Entrepreneur, Charlton also founded The Shackleton Research Trust, offering academic scholarships to underrepresented science students worldwide. Additionally, he directs the Shackleton Initiative Marine Research Centre (SIMRC) in Tobago, which explores coral reef restoration and hosts researchers at Buccoo Reef.

North Atlantic right whales are critically endangered, with only about 400 individuals remaining. Fatal ship strikes and fishing gear entanglements are primary threats, causing deaths to outnumber births. Oceana Canada advocates for mandatory speed limits in key passages like the Cabot Strait to prevent further fatalities.

Oceana's Ship Speed Watch is an innovative tool that monitors ship speeds and positions in whale habitats along the East Coast. Utilizing AIS data, it displays restriction zones, emphasizing how enforced speed limits can prevent deadly collisions—a leading cause of whale injury and death.

The vampire squid, despite its name and appearance, is neither a squid nor an octopus, but a unique creature classified in its own order. It possesses eight arms and two tentacles. Its name derives not from blood-sucking, but from its dark coloration and the cape-like webbing between its arms. This species inhabits the dark mesopelagic zone. Learn more: https://bit.ly/2WqOUYZ
