Good morning & welcome to #Caturday
There’s someone out there who still remembers you.
Not because of how you looked or what you did, but because, when no one else showed up with kindness, you did.
Kindness always matters

The science is clear. At a time when we face life-threatening impacts from climate change, this ill-conceived effort to open massive parts of our ocean to offshore oil and gas leasing is a major step backward in the nation’s urgently needed transition away from fossil fuels.
Today, the California coast we cherish and the delicate ocean ecosystems just beyond it face a renewed threat from offshore drilling. We oppose the Trump Administration’s 5-year oil and gas leasing program and will continue to defend our coastline, wildlife, economy, and health from this threat.

The ocean doesn't just influence climate—it IS climate. Yet it's often left out of the conversation.
Today at COP30, that's changing. Monterey Bay Aquarium joined the Belem Ocean Declaration commitment: "Let 2025 be remembered as the year the world united land and sea to protect all life on Earth."

Donald Trump and Greg Abbott played with fire, got burned — and democracy won.
This ruling is a win for Texas and for every American who fights for free and fair elections.

A 🪶Canada Jay perfectly fits today’s #BirdOfTheDay theme of #ShadesOfGray. After all, it was previously known as the Gray Jay.
