"The most pressing threat to whales, plankton, life on Earth and civilization as we know it is not wind farms or preliminary studies on ocean alkalinity enhancement, but rather the very crisis both are intended to help resolve."

The Scientists Making Antacids for the Sea to Help Counter Global Warming The world’s oceans are becoming dangerously acidic. A controversial proposal would raise the pH — by mixing chemicals into the water.

Trump withdraws US from 66 international organizations and treaties President Donald Trump said the United States will withdraw from 66 international treaties and working groups with interests "contrary" to America.

Take Action to Stop Offshore Drilling
On November 20, the Department of the Interior released President Trump's latest offshore drilling plan, which would open up to 34 potential lease sales across more than 1.27 billion acres of ocean. Despite strong local opposition, the proposal puts large stretches of coastline at risk, including areas off Alaska, the Gulf, California's entire coast, and waters increasingly close to Florida. 👍

Tell Congress: No new war for oil! Donald Trump just launched a military strike against Venezuela, captured Venezuela President Nicolás Maduro, and declared the U.S. would take control of Venezuela’s vast oil reserves. 2026 must be the year we move away from fossil fuels — NOT embroil ourselves in yet another war for oil. Will y...

The Hidden Decisions That Could Change The Ocean Forever COP30 Belém exposed massive gaps in climate action, and the ocean will carry the burden. In this episode, we break down the missing fossil fuel commitments, the weak climate finance language, and the two-track political system that threatens to push ocean science into the background. These decision...

Why The Climate Crisis Is A Health Crisis! Climate change is here, today, and it's threatening our lives. Whether through the direct danger of extreme weather - from floods, to heatwaves, to wildfires - the dangers of diseases and new pandemics, or the harms from climate change's causes: whether that's toxic air or unhealthy diets.

Arctic Drilling: What This Means For Marine Ecosystems When I think of the Arctic, I picture a frozen, remote region filled with breathtaking beauty that is quietly suffering due to climate change. Melting sea ice and warming oceans aren’t the only challenges facing the Arctic’s delicate and complex ecosystems. For over a century, the fossil fuel in...

New research confirms that Antarctica may have already crossed a dangerous climate tipping point, making some ice loss irreversible. Since 2014, sea ice has retreated roughly 75 miles from the coastline, signaling a rapid “regime shift” in the Antarctic environment. This decline reduces the ice’s ability to reflect sunlight, allowing oceans to absorb more heat and accelerating melting.

The consequences go far beyond sea ice. Massive glaciers, like the Thwaites Glacier often called the “Doomsday Glacier” could raise global sea levels by more than two feet if destabilized. The Antarctic Overturning Circulation, a key ocean current distributing warmth and nutrients worldwide, is also at risk. Even with major emissions cuts, scientists warn that irreversible processes are already underway, making urgent action critical to slowing the effects.
