Green sea turtle no longer Endangered

These gentle, 400-pound giants are splashing back from the brink of extinction.

Green sea turtles have been an iconic endangered species since the 1980s, mostly due to bycatch in fishing nets and taking adults and eggs for food. I have core childhood memories of watching Steve Irwin talk about sea turtle conservation in front of a beach full of nesting green sea turtles.

After 45 years of conservation efforts, their population now meets the IUCN criteria for Least Concern rather than Endangered.

For a species with such a slow life history (it takes green sea turtles decades to reach sexual maturity) and a nearly global population, this is a Really Big Deal. This is the kind of long term conservation victory that many of the amazing humans who started working on green sea turtle conservation back in the 80s didn't live to see.

Just because something isn't fixed right away doesn't mean it won't ever be fixed. Just because the work is slow doesn't mean it isn't worth doing.

"I guess I would scream too if I knew a God could hear me" is too much of a raw line to come from a tik tok about a cat

I am cordially inviting all of you to post this in the comments/reblogs of any and every Al post you come across, on any platform. Especially useful for accounts who “teach” people how to use Al.

Good video showcasing exactly why these dogs are not suited to 99 percent of households.

They've gotten very popular recently and I suspect theyre also being dumped in shelters at a high rate

[ultramarineblues]

I can confirm they are.

Which is one of the reasons I reblogged this, I vaguely hope it might make someone somewhere reconsider their choices

Civil rights activist Pamela Echols defended herself from a police attack on July 30, 1967, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, becoming a symbol of the "long hot summer" of urban rebellions that year.

And this causes children to be perceived as failures (either by themselves, their parents and/or society at large) when they are not successful according to the logic of capital. It's one of many ways capitalism has commodified our relationships.

Engels expressed the general idea of this in "The Origin of the Family, Private Property and the State"

July 25, 2026 - Riot police protecting heavily outnumbered neonazi protesters in Wien, Austria, clashed with antifascist counter-demonstrators. The "Identitären" wanted to hold a march through the city center, but found themselves blocked by hundreds of antifascists instead, and decided to ask the cops to help them escape.

Later that day the fascists held a short march in a suburb of Wien to make some videos for social media so they could pretend everything went as planned. [video]/[video]
