Up for regulation are some 2.8 million square kilometers of waters roughly 200 nautical miles from land. The area is equivalent in size to the Mediterranean Sea, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
Fish stocks are not the only draw for nations interested in carving out rules for a mostly uncharted market. The Arctic Circle, according to USGS, is home to an est. 90B barrels of oil and 1.6T cubic feet of natural gas, approximately 13% of the entire planet’s energy reserves.

When I was a kid, every earth science class I took, all I heard was "Save the Rainforests."
I can't fathom sometimes (operative word) that now, I'm 33 and here we are. Always seemed adults in the room had reverence for the rainforests and understood their planetary value.
I don't doubt there are students learning about how critical rainforests are today. Not the point ATM. The point, for me: does it matter how much you say "Save the Rainforests" every year to students if this is where it ends up? Platitudes are not collective planning and action.
I wonder if the young kids in school who learn of climate change will ask this type question when they are my age.
"Why did they ignore this? Why didnt they care more? Didnt anyone think to plan for the worst?"

US Atty Justin Herdman's comments on OH cases re: political violence:
"Now let me speak generally to those who are advocates for white supremacy, or white nationalism.  I am talking directly to you."
"The Constitution protects your right to speak, your right to think, and your right to believe.
If you want to waste the blessings of liberty by going down a path of hatred and failed ideologies, that is your choice."
"Threatening to kill Jewish people, gunning down innocent Latinos on a weekend shopping trip, planning and plotting to perpetrate murders in the name of a nonsense racial theory, sitting to pray with God-fearing people who you execute moments later...

“It’s always been difficult for the media, and hence the public, to understand methane,” @billmckibben told me. “As carbon emissions have fallen, methane emissions have risen steadily, it’s possible that our total greenhouse gas emissions have not gone down at all. What a farce.”
@billmckibben STORY UPDATED:
Unraveling rules that it had tried for years to put on hold, the Environmental Protection Agency released a proposal Thursday to cut regulations on methane, the second most potent greenhouse gas that accelerates global warming.

🚫 What happen if amazonia dissapear? a very important thread you need to read 🚫

#PrayforAmazonia
Did you know that the Amazon is the main green lung in the world? It absorbs much of the C02 from the atmosphere, if it disappears much of that gas would go back to the atmosphere taking the problem of global warming to unimaginable points
many species of animals would become extinct, there are approximately 643 species that live there, SIX HUNDRED AND THREE

#ClimateAlarmists ignore the fact that all of their propaganda efforts to scare people into submitting to expensive CO2 reduction schemes are having less than no restraining effect on the one & a half degrees of #GlobalWarming over the last two centuries.
vox.com/2015/5/15/8612…
Nothing being done now is having any effect on reducing CO2. We could help Nature do it the old fashioned way by planting a trillion trees. But that takes time.
#ClimateAlarmists prefer preventing the poorest people from trying to stay alive during winter.

Scientists are proving that active geothermal sources around the globe are causing most of the glacier melting & ocean warming. And more of that heat should be harnessed to benefit humanity, as has been done throughout human history.

1. Science is prediction. A consensus without predictability isn't a scientific consensus, it's just a really bad assumption. Climate alarmists assume catastrophic warming within 12 years. Let's see how past predictions have panned out.

@AOC #GreenNewDeal #Pseudoscience
2. Failed climate prediction #1

1990 IPCC FAR: “The average increase of global mean temperature over the next century is estimated to be 0.3°C per decade (with an uncertainty range of 0.2°C – 0.5°C).”

Reality: Since 1990 the warming rate has been from 0.12 to 0.19°C per decade
3. Failed Climate prediction #2

1990 IPCC FAR: “Emissions of greenhouse gases will result in a likely increase in global mean temperature of about 1°C above the present value by 2025

Reality: From 1990 to 2017 the increase in temperatures has been 0.31 - 0.49°C

#citizenscience

Go to tomnod.com any time to see what's up! (1/n)
First things first - crabeater seals are "true" seals (i.e., in Phocid family, "earless" which really just means they don't have ear flaps like fur seals, for e.g.)

AND

They do not eat crabs. THEY EAT KRILL, like this critter here

What size of land would be required to supply the aviation industry with the sufficient amount of biojetfuel, should a biofuel revolution take place?

Six times the area of all the fields in the world.
That is, 68 percent of the total land area on Earth.
#climate #aviation
Let me explain why.
Earlier this year, a long-distance flight was performed by Qantas, using 10% biofuel. 150 acres of mustard was required for this flight. ow.ly/byRP30lz8td
Suppose that we would replace all fossil jetfuel with 100% biojetfuel with the same area requirements as Qantas' flight.
Also, suppose that roughly 1/4 of all flights are long-distance & that short-distance flights require 75% less fuel than long-distance.
