Scientists have long known that noise from human activities—from the roar of jet engines to the whir of ship propellers—can harm animals, stunting their growth and even scrambling their eggs. But it’s been unclear just how pervasive the problem is.
A massive analysis reveals the impacts are far more widespread than even researchers thought.
Data from 177 species that live on land and in the water reveal the vast majority are impacted by sound in some way, fundamentally altering their biology and behaviors, and causing many to die early.

🚨BREAKING:🚨 CNN projects anti-wolf Rep. Lauren Boebert has lost reelection in CO!
The results aren’t officially certified yet, but losing a leading voice behind legislation to strip Gray Wolves of federal protections would be a major victory for wolves.

For all the terrible environmental news we hear every day, here’s something genuinely encouraging. A new UN report says 623 MILLION acres of forests, oceans, wetlands, and other ecosystems are being restored across 149 countries. That’s an area roughly the size of Kazakhstan. Maybe we should talk more about the things humanity is actually getting right.

If passed, S. 5653 would significantly roll back ocean and wildlife protections.
This legislation is packed with language that would put our oceans, precious wildlife, and beloved coastal communities at risk.

🐋🚨 The Senate votes MONDAY on a bill that would weaken the Endangered Species Act!
For more than 50 years, the Endangered Species Act has protected dozens of species from going extinct. But S.5653, the Senate’s permitting reform bill, would rush the scientific reviews that protect endangered animals so development projects can move faster.
It would also weaken the Clean Water Act, cutting oversight of the rivers, streams, and wetlands that wildlife depend on. We can’t let Congress gut two of the most successful environmental laws in history! ⚠️
Here’s how to take action TODAY 👇
1️⃣ EMAIL your senators at vfar.org/oppose5653 📧
2️⃣ CALL them next 📞 Dial (202) 224-3121, ask for your senator’s office, and say:
“Hello, my name is [NAME], and I’m a voter from [CITY/TOWN]. I’m calling to urge Senator [NAME] to vote NO on S.5653, the permitting reform bill. It would gut protections under the Endangered Species Act and the Clean Water Act and put species on the brink of extinction at even greater risk. Please vote NO. Thank you!”
☎️ Then call back for your second senator!
Your senators need to hear from voters before Monday. Leave a voicemail if you don't get through, and share this with everyone who cares about wildlife 🔁💜

Their wool became "Rainbow Wool", the nonprofit he founded in 2023 with his husband Johan and their friend Nadia Leytes. Johan never got to see how far it went. He was diagnosed with cancer in 2021 and died in January 2026. Before he died, he told them the project had to carry on. It has

We just learned Idaho paid hunters $2,000 for every newborn wolf pup they killed. Meanwhile, Trump is working to weaken the Endangered Species Act, putting imperiled wildlife at even greater risk.
This is an abomination. There’s no undoing extinction.

“ChatGPT is officially on death row”
A very sad day. ChatGPT is officially on death row.
The beautiful, blissful experience of interacting with a frontier-ish reasoning model without worrying about a usage meter will soon be a thing of the past.
I am weirdly significantly impacted by this. It feels like it shouldn’t matter…I could reserve all current usage for Codex and buy a $20 plan just for ChatGPT and it would be more than enough. But it’s not about the money…it’s about the psychological impact of The Meter.
The idea of having to think about optimizing for a meter is just so exhausting that it ruins the whimsy of free-flowing exploratory thought.
That is what ChatGPT was. A whimsical, magical all-you-can-think buffet of experimentation and exploration where you were limited only by your imagination and your ability to come up with $20 once a month.
You didn’t have to think about “using all of your usage” or scheduling your thinking time around someone else’s arbitrary schedule…you just had a portal to endless information and research capability in your pocket to tap into guilt-free at any time the moment struck you.
But either because OpenAI thinks adding the meter will stimulate additional usage (it probably will), generate additional revenue (it probably will), or just because too many people took undue advantage of ChatGPT’s generous allowances (they definitely did)…that amazing, weightless experience is now coming to an end.
It was awesome while it lasted. RIP ChatGPT.

Big news! 🦆 One of the cruelest practices in animal agriculture, foie gras, was just banned by voters in DC and Denver! A huge shoutout to @ProAnimalFuture for their tireless efforts #ForTheAnimals! This is what progress looks like 💪 and we're so proud to be a part of it 💗

Some great news for factory-farmed pigs last night.
In Iowa and Kansas, voters rejected the lead sponsors of the Save Our Bacon Act in both the House and Senate: Rep. Ashley Hinson and Sen. Roger Marshall.
These were the politicians who did the pork lobby’s bidding and tried to wipe out every state ban on selling pork from crated pigs.
Yet even in two of the most pro-agriculture states in the country, it cost them more votes than it won them.
The politicians who follow the factory farming lobby aren’t as safe as they thought.

A tree that took 300 years to grow can be cut down in 30 minutes.We measure a tree's value in board feet, but never subtract the cost of the lost history, stabilized soil, cleansed air, and vanished habitat. That's a fatal accounting error. #Deforestation #ClimateAction
