Seagrasses store vast amounts of climate-warming carbon, but the world has lost half its seagrasses just since 1990.

But dugongs – a little known cousin of the manatee – are unlikely ally in maintaining and restoring the world’s seagrass, scientists have found.

RT @NearSpaceNet: 2024 is a big year for @NASAEarth science!

In addition to providing communications services for missions observing Earth, the Near Space Network supports the launch vehicles that get those missions to space!

In 2024, we are looking forward to launches for PACE, NiSAR, and more!

The incredible evolution of the winter storm that barreled across the country.

From a blizzard in the Plains to tornadoes in the South to flooding in the Northeast - this system brought it all.

RT @GreenpeaceArg: 🛑 Los glaciares, sus reservas de agua dulce y sus importantes ecosistemas podrían estar en peligro‼️

⚠️ La importancia de la Ley de Glaciares reside fundamentalmente en que los preserva como reservas estratégicas de recursos hídricos, de biodiversidad, a la vez que los clasifica como “bienes de carácter público” más aún en el contexto de emergencia climática actual.

⁣🚨 Las cuestiones ambientales consideradas en la Ley #Ómnibus que el gobierno ha entregado al Congreso contienen regresiones ambientales inaceptables que liquidan el trabajo de cientos de miles de personas que han ayudado a conservar el medio ambiente y el patrimonio ambiental de Argentina 🇦🇷

🗣️ Hacemos un llamado a no permitir estas regresiones que en nada nos benefician.
