Trump just overturned the Biden 30x30 America the Beautiful executive decree. What does that mean for the ocean? #Beyond30x30

Do new executive actions benefit workers or corporations? Will legislation benefit noncollege workers? We have questions about upcoming legislation:

As Americans suffer the consequences of climate change, like the deadly wildfires that devastated Los Angeles, Hurricane Helene, and dangerous heat, on Day One Trump rolled back Biden’s executive orders on tackling climate change and environmental injustice. www.whitehouse.gov/presidential...

We need global cooperation. Trump’s announcement to again withdraw from the Paris Agreement marks a stark return to isolationism.

Climate science identified polar amplification via the potent ice-albedo feedback centuries ago & decades ago as an indication of anthropogenic GHG forcing. Permafrost melting, CH4 release & boreal wildfires are additional polar positive feedbacks now in play. 🧪🔌💡🌊 www.climate.gov/news-feature...

#NASAWebb recently found a galaxy that not only existed around 600 million years after the big bang, but is also similar to what our Milky Way galaxy’s mass might have been at the same stage of development. See its 10 distinct star clusters: webbtelescope.pub/3O5IJUD 🔭 🧪
A frame split horizontally down the middle. At left is a galaxy cluster and background galaxies, showing thousands of overlapping objects at various distances on a black background. Just above center is a bright white oversized oval, a supergiant elliptical galaxy. Around it are many thin, long orange or pink arcs. These are background galaxies that appear stretched and distorted. To the bottom right is the outline of a small box. On the right side is a zoomed in view of this area. There are two smaller circular outlines flanking a larger central oval outline, labeled Firefly Sparkle galaxy. Within it is a long line, pointing from bottom left to top right with 10 circular star clusters in pink, purple, and blue. The circled galaxy to the bottom left is labeled Companion 1 and looks like a bright red dot. At top right, the circled galaxy labeled Companion 2 is lighter red and surrounded by a red disk.
