Washington man Igor Lytvynchuk, 38, threw a rock at an endangered monk seal earlier this month, drawing immediate fury from locals and a pending criminal case. His attorney, Myles Breiner, told the Seattle Times Lytvynchuk has been brutally assaulted, doxxed, and has received hate mail since the incident. He said his client recently received a package of what appeared to be feces.

What you see here is a wetland without water, says Vallejos, who has investigated the causes alongside activists from the group Resistencia Socioambiental de Quilicura. I discovered that Quilicura is home to the largest concentration of datacentres in Latin America. Chile's push to become the regional tech hub now faces backlash as datacentres have drained water from drought-stricken wetlands, consuming billions of litres annually.

Tom Steyer has vowed to take on entrenched political and economic forces to create affordable housing, make the wealthy pay more in taxes, lower energy bills and protect the environment.

The show is called The Pollinators. Much of the work draws from her interest in nature, and the pieces in the show reflect on the important work of the planet's endangered pollinators—but there's also a read of them as hybrid creatures with some aspects of the female face and form. They're kind of strange and a little monolithic. They are kind of moth-like and plant-like and relate to endangered species. But they also have neon coming out of their eyes.

mennell's work smears the personal and political across their body. The Thames performance is the finale of a project called (para)site, made in response to revelations of sewage discharge in our waterways and a reaction to the way benefit claimants are labelled a drain on society. OK, mennell thought, I'm going to be the parasite.

Hoppers breaches what, at this point, feels too prescient to ignore: the question of how not to be consumed by despair, even in our formative years. What's a kid meant to do with all that rage against the machine inside their head? All this gloom is, of course, communicated via the fluffiest of stratagems: the North American beaver.

The Traditional-style home, built in 1986, has more than 5,000 square feet of updated living space. There are six bedrooms, six bathrooms and fireplaces in the living room, one of the two family rooms and the master suite. One guest room has its own entrance. There's also a three-car garage. The nearly half-acre lot has mountain views.

We want an end to the use of herbicides in our creeks. This idea that we're just going to spray, hose down these creeks and leave them dead is unacceptable. Linas and other residents have filed requests for records detailing the chemicals the county uses to control vegetation in the waterways, such as glyphosate, triclopyr and imazapyr.

A 1 billion rise in Heathrow's debt has prompted campaigners against a third runway to argue the government's decision to back the airport's expansion is even more absurd. The company's accounts for last year, just released, show it reported 17.6bn of debt up from 16.6bn in 2024. The owners also reported pre-tax profits of 575m, down more than a third from 917m in 2024 - despite passenger numbers growing by 600,000.

The move has triggered sharp criticism by environmental activists ahead of the COP30 UN climate talks in Brazil next month. The Equatorial Margin deposit off Brazil's coast is believed to be rich in oil and gas. The company was granted the license to drill in the area after a five-year battle. The country's environmental agency IBAMA said the approval came after a "rigorous environmental licensing process."

Scientist and global activist Jane Goodall, who turned her childhood love of primates into a lifelong quest for protecting the environment, has died at the age of 91, the institute she founded said on Wednesday. In 2003, she was appointed a Dame of the British Empire and, in 2025, she received the U.S. Presidential Medal of Freedom.

Big banks across the world are substantially increasing their financing of the fossil fuel industry, including for the industry's expansion during a time of intensifying climate crisis, all while pulling back from previously stated climate commitments. These are among the key highlights of the most recent Banking on Climate Chaos report, which found that the 65 biggest banks globally committed a whopping $869 billion to companies conducting business in fossil fuels in 2024, representing a huge $162 billion increase from 2023.

"I hung a trans flag on El Capitan. It flew for a total of two hours in the morning, then I took it down."

You're seeing here evidence of a statewide movement that is committed to moving New York off fossil fuels. We are committed to pressuring Governor Hochul to stand up to Trump and block these dangerous, costly, and unnecessary projects.

Friends of the Everglades stated their satisfaction with the ruling, highlighting expert testimony regarding the harm caused by industrial lighting and significant land impacts in Big Cypress National Preserve.

"On a clear day, the trails winding through West Coyote Hills near Fullerton, California, offer a sweeping view of the mountains rising over Orange County's suburban sprawl."

The Niger Delta, which produces the crude that earned Nigeria 80 percent of its foreign revenues, teemed with gun-carrying soldiers from the military dictatorship of the feared General Sani Abacha.

Governments have yet to rise to the moment. They remain disconnected from global concerns and the pressing need for courageous leadership to protect the deep ocean.

Macy synthesized principles of Buddhism, systems theory, and deep ecology philosophy to empower collective action toward environmental sustainability, inspiring ordinary people to heal the planet.

The Murphy Company's devastation of the landscape slaps you in the face. Here on land owned by the state's Department of Natural Resources (DNR), a beautiful mature forest has been logged for hardwood, plywood, and other wood products. Hacked-off stumps are visible in all directions, a few trees left to stand. The former forest floor, once rich with organisms, now stands heaped into huge slash piles to be burned.
