The deep sea is home to ancient corals, mysterious creatures, and ecosystems we barely understand. Mining here could cause irreversible damage—before we even grasp what’s at stake. pewtrsts.org/4lTrEgp 📷 Schmidt Ocean Institute

Seagrass prevents coastal erosion, stores carbon, and contributes to food security. However, these vital ecosystems are in decline. Join #GenerationRestoration and take action for our precious ecosystems: bit.ly/44JY0Cs

It's #InternationalBogDay. Bogs, swamps, and mires—all known as peatlands—might sound mysterious, but they're unsung conservation heroes. Protecting them mitigates floods, reduces wildfire risk, and more. pewtrsts.org/450tcgN 📸Photograph by Charlie Reinertsen/Twolined Studio

Wirtschaftsministerin Reiche möchte offenbar mit einem Gefälligkeitsgutachten den Ausbau der Erneuerbaren abwürgen, anstatt endlich ihre Arbeit zu machen und sich um den Ausbau von Netzen und Speichern zu kümmern. Das dürfen wir ihr nicht durchgehen lassen faz.net/aktuell/wirtsc…

👎By 2040, plastic production could increase by 66% and plastic pollution could almost double—leaking into our environment and harming our health. 👍 A strong U.N. treaty could reduce plastic pollution by 7x. #INC5 📸Getty

The Domain 1 MPA would protect 460,000 km² of the Antarctic Peninsula vital for krill, penguins & whales. Sponsored by Argentina & Chile and scientifically grounded in 143 data layers, it includes no-take zones & adaptive protections. Credit: CCAMLR 2024 asoc.org/campaign/antar…

East Antarctica faces unprecedented threats: record 38.5°C heat in 2022, 28°C heatwave in 2024. Its ice sheet holds 80% of Earth’s freshwater, enough to raise sea levels by 52m. Fishing for krill & toothfish continues without protections. 📷️ John Weller

🌍 New research shows Antarctica is now showing climate change impacts eerily similar to Greenland, with melting ice and accelerating glaciers. Scientists warn this “Greenlandification” could drive global sea levels even higher. ❄️📈 phys.org/news/2025-10-a…

🌊 The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) is Earth’s largest ocean current, a cold, powerful ribbon connecting the Atlantic, Pacific, and Indian Oceans. A new study found it flowed 3× faster and shifted 600 km south ~130,000 years ago. ow.ly/Wggv50X9jqv

More than half of assessed Mediterranean fish stocks are overfished. When the Food and Agriculture Organization General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean meets next month, they can agree to help rebuild populations and protect vulnerable habitats. 📸Damir Sagolj/Getty Images pewtrsts.org/3KHb3hA

Antarctica’s krill fishery has been forced to shut early for the first time ever. CCAMLR Members have a chance over the next two weeks to turn the tide by creating the Antarctic Peninsula MPA. Let’s keep Antarctica’s food web, and our climate buffer, intact:
