Barbecuing today? I hope your family's plates, cups and flatware are all reusable. Added bonus: they won't blow away in a stiff breeze. This #PlasticFreeJuly let's take every action we can to declare our independence from single-use plastics!

No nation can protect our ocean or climate alone. International partnerships achieve stronger governance. A new paper co-authored by Ocean Conservancy colleague Henry Huntington, explores the benefits nations might secure through collaborative Arctic conservation. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

🚨 UNNECESSARY HARM 🚨 Over the weekend, an inactive oil rig was discovered to be spilling into the Gulf of Mexico. This spill from an 'inactive' offshore drill highlights the critical need for proper decommissioning. MORE: ow.ly/H1sV50SItbm

I'm excited to see our elected officials continue to hold the oil & gas industry accountable. Thank you to Katie Porter and Rep. Tim Kennedy for introducing the Plug Offshore Wells Act (POW Act), developed in partnership with Ocean Conservancy oceanconservancy.org/news/plug-offs…

Thank you, Sen. Cory Booker for supporting #PlasticFreeJuly and championing legislation to bring about systemic, upstream solutions to the crisis of single-use plastic pollution.

Remote island and coastal communities are on the front lines of climate change and will benefit most from this new #waveenergy and #tidalenergy bill from Nanette D. Barragán and Suzanne Bonamici. So glad to see #cleanoceanenergy solutions like this!

New from me in the @tb_times: Florida lawmakers are trying to pave paradise in an egregious and out-of-touch proposal to commercialize our protected lands. Together, our collective voices can make change. I hope you'll join me in taking action. tampabay.com/opinion/2024/0…
