Climate change is a critical global concern. A key strategy to drastically reduce our carbon footprint and protect the planet involves changing dietary habits, particularly by reducing or eliminating meat consumption.

A senior researcher in environmental sustainability and public health at the University of Oxford champions this approach, advocating for a tax on meat consumption. This perspective was presented at a TEDx event, an independently organized local conference.

The 88,000-acre Scotchman Peaks Roadless Area, straddling the Idaho-Montana border, is one of the region's largest remaining wild areas. Inspired by its natural beauty, Jacob Glass produced "En Plein Air," a film documenting the Friends of Scotchman Peaks Wilderness. This grassroots group, formed in 2005, seeks federal protection for the region, with the film highlighting two painters who use their art to advocate for the mountains.

The documentary received nationwide media attention, dramatically increasing the Friends' membership. This surge of public support for wilderness designation led to endorsements from many area chambers of commerce and Montana Governor Brian Schweitzer.

California's iconic redwoods are at risk from a Highway 101 expansion. This project threatens to cut into the essential root systems of ancient trees on the North Coast, leading to their weakening, decline, and death. With less than 5% of original redwood forests remaining, these vital ecosystems cannot recover once damaged.

Governor Gavin Newsom has the authority to stop this plan. Urge him to protect these irreplaceable redwoods before it's too late. Act Now.

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
