Fossil fuels are wreaking havoc on people, wildlife, and the planet.

Fueled by coal and gas, catastrophic storms and heat waves are devastating human communities and the habitats animals and plants need to survive.

Utility companies must phase out #fossilfuels, for all our sakes.

Welcome, to the first North Atlantic right whale calf born this season! 🐣🐳

Column: Why California's favorite bagel shop is defending fossil fuels In liberal Berkeley, Boichik Bagels helped defeat a tax measure backed by climate change activists.

Why did liberal Berkeley residents overwhelmingly reject a ballot measure to tax fossil gas and fight the climate crisis? In part because everyone's favorite bagel shop told them to vote "no."

I visited Boichik Bagels to learn more. My @latimes.com column: www.latimes.com/environment/...

US moves to list giraffes under Endangered Species Act for first time Climate crisis, habitat loss and poaching have reduced its numbers – but will Trump put the kibosh on protections?

Proposed #giraffe protections are good news, but it took 7 years to get here. US officials should be racing like a cheetah to fight the global #extinction crisis, but they’re actually moving at a snail’s pace to protect imperiled wildlife. #StopExtinction

“We actually realized that there are fewer giraffes in Africa than elephants,” said @ts4biodiversity.bsky.social.

But good news - they may be added to the Endangered Species List. 🎉
