Do we even have coal in Alaska? Or are we going to barge it up here from somewhere else? Either way, it’s a stupid idea. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026...

I’m appalled to see the new NPS policy for 2026. While visiting several national parks last November, the majority of the visitors were foreigners. Their tourism supports our parks’ preservation. Is the goal of this new policy to make the parks less profitable to justify privatization/exploitation?

Juneau’s got a beautiful new mural by Tucson’s Joe Pagac and Lenka Vasickova. More of this, please!
A raven, bear, marmot, moose, and eagle sit together on a log staring up at the northern lights. Fireweed and Forget-me-note frame the scene.

I started my NOAA career in 2002 at the Northwest Fisheries Science Center and recently “retired” early for the reasons described in this article. So much passion and expertise lost. It is heartbreaking for the scientists and the ecosytems we worked to protect. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

I was hoping a thin silver lining of the GSA being gutted would be that they wouldn’t get around to hanging the presidential portraits in the Juneau Federal Building lobby. I was wrong. These now greet me every day (for the few days I have left).
An almost comically villainous Trump portrait glares menacingly at visitors and employees entering the Juneau Federal Building. A shiny-faced portrait of Vance smirks alongside, like the kid who enjoys watching other dweeby kids get beaten up instead of him, for a change. The portraits are hung over the Charters of Freedom. Trump’s portrait is awkwardly a couple of inches larger than Vance’s.

I’d guess about 1,300 people at Juneau’s protest today in front of the Alaska Capitol. Largest I’ve seen there since the women’s march and march for science during the first Trump term. Extra credit to the person who had a Greenland flag — not many of those in town, I’d guess. #akleg #Alaska

BREAKING: Yuval Abraham, co-director of Oscar-winning documentary "No Other Land," says Israeli settlers beat his co-director Hamdan Ballal, injuring his head and stomach — and then Israeli soldiers invaded the ambulance he was in and seized him. Ballal's whereabouts are now unknown.
Tweet from Yuval Abraham:
"A group of settlers just lynched Hamdan Ballal, co director of our film no other land. They beat him and he has injuries in his head and stomach, bleeding. Soldiers invaded the ambulance he called, and took him. No sign of him since."

A Forest Service official confirmed that the recreation area’s revenue in visitor fees and permits exceeds its operating costs by more than a million dollars – in other words, the park earns enough to pay employees and more.
