A VERY easy way for individuals to contribute to the fight for climate justice is by signing this petition by Audubon. It takes less than a minute of your time and contacts your state representatives (in the US) to urge them to pass the Inflation Reduction Act.

Phytoplankton: Why they're so important!

While phytoplankton may not seem that important at first, they are very, and I mean VERY, important. Phytoplankton are responsible for most of the transfer of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to the ocean! They're also extremely important to the Earth's carbon cycle, they help to process and store carbon. They can also produce oxygen! Prochlorococcus and other ocean phytoplankton are responsible for 70 percent of Earth's oxygen production. However, some scientists believe that phytoplankton levels have declined by 40 percent since 1950 due to the warming of the ocean. Ocean temperature impacts the number of phytoplankton in the ocean.

The Willow Project

The willow project has been approved, but there's still hope.

peaceful protests and signing the petition may still help!

It starts in 2027, so the next president may be able to stop it, so remember to vote for eco-friendly presidents!
