1/4 I am truly awed by this group of young folks who had the courage and fortitude to stand up for their futures in Hawaiʻi. With trepidation, I put myself out on the climate expert "witness stand", theguardian.com/us-news/arti…

We @AllenCoralAtlas are monitoring coral bleaching from space. The maps here show, in green outlines, where we detect bleaching. These maps are changing fast with each update. Log in and zoom in these green outlines to see the details at 10 m resolution.
🌎🚨BREAKING: @NOAACoral and ICRI confirm the Fourth Global Coral Bleaching Event 🪸 #coralbleaching has now been confirmed in over 53 nations and across all Ocean basins 🌊. This #global event requires global action #ForCoral. Download the press release #4GBE: icriforum.org/4gbe/
