Why does Trump want more of our national birds to die? Is it because that eagle on his desk scared him?

Happy World Ocean Day! The ocean is the heart of our life support system, without which we’d all be dead. It’s taken up >90% of the heat from global warming and 30% of our CO₂ emissions. In return, we give it 11 million tonnes of plastic annually, which animals ingest and also become entangled in.

Oceans Awash in Plastic Waste
On a day that many might be headed to the beach, take a moment to consider some of the widespread impacts of all of that plastic, and the ongoing efforts to clean it up.

Apparently TSA lines are long at some airports, but we waited only 5-10 minutes both ways for a cross-country trip over the weekend. Pre-check wasn't much faster than regular. Perhaps partially an excuse to insert ICE terror and harassment into a new venue?
