@ReyTheDev @shiftnudge Cool grey for me

.@shiftnudge Week 10 L3 HW✅ Category: Colour Task: Design a simple calculator with three different colour schemes all based off of a variety of (but very specifically chosen) greys. 👇

Check out our latest #blog on the effects of #climatechange on South Africa's southern right whales. Also, if you haven't yet, go adopt a whale! adoptawhale.co.za/2021/05/27/132…

An utterly crushing day for Big Oil 1) Chevron investors demand emission cuts 2) Dutch court tells Shell to cut emissions by half 3) Exxon shareholders buck the company and elect directors demanding climate action. Thanks to all who fight--you push long enough and dominoes tumble

@ReyTheDev @telmo

@telmo "Date? Aaaaah" for me.

Never nice to see a stranded cetacean, but we collected some great data! #science #dolphin

@EmzLCarroll @docgovtnz @royalsocietynz @itsliveocean @MMEG_UoA @ScienceUoA @alex_zerbini @FinntasticLeena @AucklandUni @polarbiome Summer hols spending some time with their South African mates?! Hopefully we’ll be tagging some Saffa whales soon!

Bill/Wiremu the tohorā has made another unexpected move . . . . this time due south ⬇️! Summer hols in Antarctica 🇦🇶look pretty good #southernrightwhale #whale #teamtohora pic under @docgovtnz permit w support from @royalsocietynz & @itsliveocean

(1) Are you interested in adopting a #whale and in doing so, supporting our #research and the #conservation of southern right whales in South Africa? A thread:

And we're back!🐳 Follow our page for all the latest happenings at the MRI Whale Unit - an international thought-leader in #knowledge, #research and #conservation of #cetacean fauna in southern African waters and the surrounding oceans.

“Even though we have stopped hunting whales, our actions are now indirectly impacting their populations through climate change.” Read more about the latest research by @EmzLCarroll @Gideonvdb 🐳 ⬇️ auckland.ac.nz/en/news/2020/1…

#Southernrightwhales can alter their feeding behaviours in response to rapidly changing oceans. A good sign! But, it still isn't benefiting the population. Here I discuss #whales, #climatechange, and the findings of a new publication in @GlobalChangeBio mammalresearchinstitute.science/news/2020/12/1…

New @GlobalChangeBio paper on the impacts of #climatechange on the recovery of #southernrightwhales from #whaling. As our oceans rapidly change, SRWs can alter their feeding behaviour. But, it doesn't appear to help their recovery @EmzLCarroll @LucV6 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/share/author/X…

How does tech actually help whales? Read how the just-published #southernrightwhale #genome and #satellite tracking helps us learn about #whales and how their populations might fare in changing oceans. Pic: @docgovtnz permit #conservation #SGwhales theconversation.com/genome-and-sat…

@Sashafrancess Agreed

As a professional dolphin person, I concur. It's been long known within these circles that they're the official D*ckh**ds of the sea

Just in: Earth just had its hottest #September on record; 2020 could end up ranking among three-warmest years on record, say @NOAANCEIclimate scientists More at bit.ly/371gTVa #StateOfClimate

Perhaps the beginning of another Península Valdés situation where sea birds harass whales?

Mind. Blown. A Cuvier's beaked whale, an air breathing mammal, dived for 3hrs 47mins. How is that even possible?! Way to go @NicolaJQuick et al.!

Such awesome work! Hopefully we can start tagging some South African SRWs soon @MRI_Whale_Unit. Plenty of summer migration questions that need answering... #southernrightwhale #satellitetag #foraging #ecology
