Poke, a popular raw tuna dish, raises significant sustainability concerns. Tracking the origin of yellowfin or bigeye tuna used in poke is often difficult, highlighting broader issues in the seafood supply chain.

This lack of transparency is common across the seafood industry, leaving consumers with little information about what they eat. To combat seafood fraud and promote sustainable practices, Oceana is actively working on solutions. Learn more about their efforts: https://bit.ly/2FvJLZo

Racism denies humanity, sexism demeans, and their intersection limits true freedom. Frances Cudjoe-Waters, a Black woman and Harvard Law alumna, realized the exhaustion of politely presenting her pain to predominantly white audiences. She decided to abandon polite conversation and speak her truth, declaring, "I Ain't Sorry." She never expected to witness the reemergence of civil rights issues like Charlottesville and repeated acquittals for killings of Black individuals, reminiscent of the 1960s. While seeking to facilitate discussions, she recognized the toll of maintaining dispassionate intellectualism. Her family was featured in the Dallas Morning News.

Despite this, the Australian government is criticized for its inaction on climate change, instead allocating significant funds to the fossil fuel industry. This approach jeopardizes the Reef's future.

Tennessee native Erica Davis recognized that rural communities often see little benefit from local oil and gas extraction. Collaborating with grassroots organizers in Campbell County, she researched and sponsored a bill to reform oil and natural gas severance taxes.

Davis's bill aims to raise these taxes, which are the sole legislative means to keep extraction wealth in-state. Crucially, it seeks to distribute all revenue directly to the affected communities where extraction occurs, rather than the current one-third. Despite Davis's lobbying efforts and bipartisan support, the bill was dropped from the 2015-2016 docket. Now pursuing an environmental law degree, Davis plans to revive the legislation in the next session.
