#30DayMapChallenge Day 25: Hexagons
Used DuckDB for spatial aggregation, GeoPandas for preprocessing, and pydeck's HexagonLayer with 3D extrusion to map global mangrove density and change (1996–2020). Data from Global Mangrove Watch

What was the weather like on your birthday? Now you can find out!
During the shutdown, I forced myself to stay agile in data science tech, like AWS, Google, and Open AI.
I made a notebook that gets weather for the day/location of your birth, using multiple NOAA sources.

Breaking News: The EPA moved to stop requiring polluters to report their emissions of greenhouse gases. The proposal would end a key tool the government uses to track carbon dioxide, methane and other gases that are driving climate change.
E.P.A. to Stop Collecting Emissions Data From Polluters
The data, from thousands of coal-burning power plants, oil refineries, steel mills and other industrial facilities, is the country’s most comprehensive way to track greenhouse gases.
