6 critically endangered smalltooth sawfish reported dead in the Florida Keys with anecdotal reports of fish seen spinning and behaving erratically. But scientists and wildlife officials are confident this is not yet a repeat of last year’s bizarre event. local10.com/news/local/2025/…

🚨 LANDFILL CRISIS- landfills across the nation, especially in S Florida are running out of space bc Americans produce more trash than any other country. Some cities have turned to ZERO WASTE: diverting trash away from landfills by recycling & composting. Austin is 1/2 way there

It’s the most wonderful time of the year but also the trashiest. A @Stanford study found Americans generate 25% more waste between Thanksgiving & New Years. But there are ways we can all go GREEN this holiday season & not skimp on any of the fun! local10.com/news/local/2024/…

Right now Florida has lost over 90 percent of its coral cover due to bleaching, disease & habitat destruction. The Miami Reef Star is a public art installation on Miami Beach to show how art, tech & science R converging to bring back lost corals & create habitat for marine life.

MORE THAN A MILLION CORALS KILLED when in 2013 dredging @portmiami smothered 278 acres of corals in sediment. Now as Army Corps of Engineers gets ready for a deepening & widening project at @PortEverglades scientists are making sure the Port Everglades Corals are protected. (1-2)

"There's so much at stake here," says Dr. Rachel Silverstein, our Chief Executive Officer. She speaks from experience. In 2013, when the Army Corps deepened PortMiami, 278 acres of coral reef was decimated, smothered by all that sediment that was raised during the dredging.
DON'T TRASH OUR TREASURE - The $1.3 billion project to improve, deepen and widen Port Everglades is still in limbo because of the millions of precious corals and other endangered marine species that will be impacted once the dredging begins. local10.com/news/local/2024/…

🚨 @noaa says the planet is currently experiencing the 4th global coral bleaching event on record & the 2nd in the last 10 years.  Our Earth is on fire & yet science & mentions of climate change are being challenged. While Fl corals still recover from 2023 devastating bleach.

The nutrient pollution flowing into Biscayne Bay is damaging its health. This is why @MiamiDadeCounty has an ordinance restricting the use of fertilizer. Learn more about the law and how it helps protect this precious resource here: miamidade.gov/fertilizer #StartTodayToSaveTheBay
