Published December 2, 2025, by The New Press, "The Problem with Plastic: How We Can Save Ourselves and Our Planet Before It's Too Late" by Judith Enck, Adam Mahoney, and Beyond Plastics is an Amazon Editors' Pick. This powerful investigation reveals plastic's devastating impact on human health and the environment, from poisoned oceans and polluted air to microplastic contamination and environmental racism.

The book critically examines plastic's paradox, challenging the belief that recycling alone can solve the crisis.

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game plans to kill bears to save the struggling Mulchatna caribou herd, which has plummeted from 200,000 to 16,000. However, scientists and conservation groups, including the Center for Biological Diversity, contend this program lacks scientific support. Courts have already ruled against the initiative.

Independent experts identify disease and food scarcity, exacerbated by climate change, as the primary drivers of the caribou's decline, not bear predation. They assert that killing bears will not achieve long-term recovery. Wildlife management should prioritize science, sustainability, and ecosystem protection over scapegoating.

An Alaska Superior Court ruling permits the state to kill an unlimited number of black and brown bears across 40,000 square miles of southwest Alaska this summer. The state claims this "bear

An Alaska Superior Court ruling permits the state to kill an unlimited number of black and brown bears across 40,000 square miles of southwest Alaska this summer. The state claims this "bear control program" will boost a struggling caribou herd, but there is no scientific evidence to support this assertion.

Cooper Freeman, Alaska director at the Center for Biological Diversity, expressed concern about the "unlawful plan's irreversible consequences" and the lack of scientific basis. He emphasized the need to protect wildlife based on science, not "disgraceful waste of the state’s limited resources."

The Center for Biological Diversity and Alaska Wildlife Alliance are collaborating to stop this program. Support their efforts in this critical fight.
