I sometimes get asked why I keep going back to Devon Island in the Canadian #Arctic. Last summer was the 25th anniversary of my 1st trip. This is why. Check out this incredible video from last summer by Sam Anderson: DAYS ON DEVON ISLAND youtu.be/PtoSEqYTIjk?si…

We’re barely three weeks in, but Trump is laying the groundwork to allow staggering levels of corruption to occur in the US Government. Here are five actions he's already taken to open the flood gates of corruption – just the facts🧵

The Fraser River is unique among the world’s great rivers – a huge, relatively natural, undammed, mountain river running through a dense urban area. But a lack of monitoring and poor management could threaten much of what makes the Fraser special, warn SFU experts.

We stand with scientists and communities across the country in opposing the dismantling of NOAA. As climate disasters grow more severe, we need stronger science, not less. We urge Congress to reject efforts that threaten NOAA’s mission and impact.

Morgan J. Freeman Trump's claim "they rigged the election, and I became president" is outrageous. We need an urgent, independent investigation into the 2024 election to uncover the truth and hold him accountable for undermining democracy. Enough is enough.

A South African billionaire worth nearly $500 billion wants to cut Social Security and Medicare for American seniors—many of whom are surviving on an average of just $762 a month. Let that sink in. The richest man on Earth, who pays little to no taxes, thinks your grandmother’s

I'm no mathematician, but I do know this: 99% is a hell of a lot bigger than 1%. Together, the American people can defeat Trump's advances toward authoritarianism and create an economy that works for all of us, not just the billionaire class.

So many people still don't realize how many protests are erupting across the country. The sheer number of them should be national news, but instead we rely on local papers and the stories of the protesters themselves to document them. Here are a few from this week. 🧵 New York

Is Pete Hegseth a racist? Hegseth has removed Colin Powell’s name from a list of notable Americans, buried at Arlington National Cemetery. In fact all the names removed were people of color or women. Only white men were left on the list. Your thoughts?

SpaceX just landed a $5.92B contract with the Pentagon for Space Force rocket launches — the largest contract among the three firms who secured deals to send satellites into orbit. While DOGE cuts essential services for you, Musk is getting a taxpayer-funded windfall. Hello?

70 years ago, a woman discovered nuclear fission. But her male colleague stole her work and won the Nobel Prize. She fled Nazi Germany empty handed and died without a word. Here's how the biggest theft in science buried Lise Meitner's name in history: 🧵
