YESSSSSSS

BREAKING: DHS waives dozens of environmental laws to rush border construction through congressionally designated Wild & Scenic section of the Rio Grande in Big Bend--the incredibly remote Lower Canyons stretch. We're looking into legal action. In the meantime, here's my reaction: "The Lower Canyons of the Rio Grande are one of the wildest places in America—a stretch of river so remote that visitors can float for days without seeing a road, a light, or a single sign of the modern world. This waiver clears the way for DHS to blast roads through serene canyon walls, flood the darkness with artificial stadium lights, and build an industrial barricade across one of the last great rivers in the American Southwest. We will fight this looming catastrophe.”

Thank you, @RepSalinas, for calling it like it is: our public lands aren’t for sale, and the Roadless Rule isn’t up for auction. Rolling it back would put places like Alaska’s Tongass National Forest on the chopping block, and nearly 60M acres of national forest at risk.

Wildlife crossings save lives, money, and ecosystems. With over 1 million wildlife-vehicle collisions each year costing the U.S. more than $10 billion, we need projects that protect natural corridors & construct crossings in collision hotspots. Connectivity is safety. Protecting people and wildlife. pewtrsts.org/4k2RTQO via @pewtrusts

🏗️We put together this rendering to show the progress of Midtown's infill development since the start of the Midtown Improvement District and Blueprint Midtown. Today, more than 100,000 people spend time in this square mile of the city. Check out this new visual!

The Atlanta Beltline being this packed with people at 7pm on a TUESDAY is just a delight. Every restaurant along the trail is packed, people everywhere socializing and being humans together. The dichotomy of this experience against Atlanta Freeway Hell just boggles the mind.

when claude gives you a timeline of 1-2 weeks, is it aware it's gonna generate all the code in the next 5 minutes?

Without a doubt, our best trail camera capture yet: the first documented observation of a cougar with kittens in Minnesota in modern history. Turn up the volume to hear all the vocalizations. The footage, which was captured on March 25, shows a cougar with 3 large kittens while they feed on a deer they killed just south of Voyageurs National Park. We captured this surreal footage because we started a study to understand the survival and mortality patterns of deer in our area this winter. As part of that work, we GPS-collared several deer in the area in January.  In late March, we received a mortality signal from a GPS-collared deer and found the carcass buried under a pile of leaves on a hillside—a tell tale sign of feline predation.  We suspected it was likely a bobcat but thought, just possibly, it could be a cougar. So we put up two trail cameras on the cached deer carcass and 4 hours later, two cougar kittens returned to the kill. The entire family showed up that evening and spent hours in front of our cameras. In total, we captured 7.3 hr (435 minutes) of video footage of these animals. We will share more footage soon! Huge thanks to the Minnesota Environment and Natural Resources Trust Fund for supporting the Voyageurs Wolf Project and the recent effort to understand deer survival in the area. Their support was critical to this observation—without it, we would never have captured this footage. And huge thanks to the >10,600 donors who have supported our project and enabled us to purchase trail cameras supplies. The cameras (and batteries, SD cards, mounts) we set at this kill were purchased with funds from donations.

The Braves have the largest division lead across the league!

Thank you for making this clear 👏 The Arctic Refuge is one of the last intact wild places in the country, there’s so much to lose that no amount of extraction can ever justify.

Don't pay attention to the noise from the White House. It's very clear that markets and consumers vastly prefer lower cost energy sources that hedge fossil fuel price volatility. 88% of all new generation added in the US last year. electrek.co/2026/04/01/fer…

More public land for North Americans!

A new report from @Wilderness names the Western Arctic & Arctic Refuge among 10 U.S. landscapes most threatened by drilling & mining, and shows how communities are pushing back. One message is clear: these lands are not for sale. Learn more: wilderness.org/sites/default/…

None of my lefty friends like me for this but I am personally pro-Waymo. Driving is incredibly dangerous. We now have many studies that show Waymo’s are genuinely less dangerous. Ride share drivers’ jobs are not more important than saving lives.

Yeah California is all that.

There is no reality in which this country can do amazing things like this and not be able to build incredible infrastructure like high speed rail and nuclear power.

Charleston is great...Savannah is better 🤐

New Protected Bike Lane going in on 14th Street!

Reintroduce wolves and mountain lions across their former range and they will restore equilibrium. Exploding deer numbers means more ticks and more Lyme disease. It’s so obvious it’s painful pointing it out.

Until I got to visit Seattle, I never realized a single mountain could define a landscape like Rainier. Incredible
