"The combined pressures of global heating and farming are driving a "substantial decline" of insects across the globe" The number of insects has plunged by half in many places around the world. bbc.com/news/science-e…

I hoped I'd never see this headline in my lifetime, however I've been a witness for 25 years. A student recently asked me how I stay positive? I can only say, I try to stay present.

Anyone else ever just get tired of the patriarchy?? Just me??

I have new #Zostera babies!! They are so much easier to sprout than #Heterozostera! #teamseagrass is making global progress in aquaculture ❤🌱 Stay tuned!

How do I know if something is *actually* commercially compostable and not #greenwashed? Look for the word "compostable" along with logos from accredited organizations. While packaging that says "biodegradable" or "made from plants" may seem compostable, it's not. #Envir400

@Back_To_Nature1 Sending all the good energy!!!

Here is my full speech at the #COP26 World Leaders Summit Opening Ceremony with a key message from Earth to COP: "Open your hearts"! The youth voices at the World Leaders Summit will probably get the least coverage! So I'll upload them here! Share widely!

Have you ever seen a #nudibranch fluoresce like this!? I imagine it's some sort of #algae and there is some symbiosis there but its really pretty! Especially the gills. It was huge too! bigger than my hand. Possibly a sea lemon? Doris pseudoagus? #nature #wildlife #Scotland

More than 70% of all acres burned in Washington in 2020 were from fires started over Labor Day weekend last year. Do your part to prevent us from repeating history. Skip the outdoor fire this weekend.

Experiencing all this flooding in NYC right now and thinking about all the politicians who told me that pursuing a Green New Deal to adapt our nat’l infrastructure to climate change is “unrealistic” & “too expensive.” As if doing too little is the responsible, adult thing to do?

So happy to see this paper finally published! We demonstrate that drivers of #seagrass #bluecarbon differ across regions and geomorphologies.🌱🌱 One of the outcomes of my stay at @CMER_ECU working with amazing researchers 8)🙂💙 shorturl.at/grw57

During my #POEcap I have learned sooo much about myself and my future career goals. I only have 11 days left of my #undergrad and here’s my advice! #ENVIR492 (1/3)

During my #POEcap experience I gathered some information for my capstone from @ProjectSeagrass ! They have some good digestible sources for #seagrass info! #ENVIR492
