Typhoon Champi is heading for Guam 🌀
See how it formed, and @noaa's wind forecast.

A week ago it was a loose cluster of storms near the Marshall Islands. This shows how it formed, from real weather data, and NOAA's forecast of its winds as it reaches the Mariana Islands.

The eye is expected to pass very close to Guam early Sunday morning.

Stay safe, Guam, Rota and Saipan. Follow NWS Guam for official warnings.

💛 The American Red Cross is responding on Guam and in the Northern Marianas. To help, give to Red Cross Disaster Relief at redcross.org, call 1-800-RED CROSS, or text REDCROSS to 90999.

🧸💛 HUGS WITHOUT BORDERS
Kindness is a universal language.

The stuffed animal you give could become their favorite hug.

Imagine a child receiving a stuffed animal you chose for them, along with a few words written by you. During these difficult days after the earthquake in Panama, your gesture can offer companionship and remind them that someone cares.

Donate a new or gently used stuffed animal, clean and in good condition, small or medium-sized, along with a heartfelt message.

Your note can be as simple as:
“We haven’t met, but I’m sending you this hug with lots of love.” 💛

📍 Drop-off locations:
• Orgánica Store – Paitilla

A gift from your hands. A hug from your heart.

🧸💛 ABRAZOS SIN FRONTERAS
El cariño es un lenguaje universal.

Ese peluche que tú regalas puede convertirse en su abrazo favorito.

Imagina a un niño recibiendo un peluche que elegiste para él y unas palabras escritas por ti. En estos días difíciles después del terremoto en Panamá, tu gesto puede brindarle compañía y recordarle que alguien piensa en él.

Dona un peluche nuevo o usado, limpio y en buen estado, pequeño o mediano, acompañado de un mensaje de cariño.

🦀 ¿Hasta cuándo la burocracia pesará más que el sustento de los pescadores?
El sector del cangrejo azul en el estado Zulia cumple meses paralizado debido al bloqueo de exportación impuesto por la NOAA. Aunque desde el @Minpescave se ha hablado de "avances" y "trámites completados", la realidad en los puertos es otra: más de 30.000 pescadores de cangrejo azul y decenas de plantas procesadoras siguen pagando el precio de una gestión que no entregó los recaudos técnicos a tiempo.
No se trata de "cordialidad diplomática", se trata de diligencia administrativa. Países como Vietnam o Sri Lanka ya subsanaron sus observaciones y reactivaron sus mercados, ¿Por qué en Venezuela resolver un código e INSOPESCA toma casi un año? Las familias de pescadores, procesadores y afectados con esta prohibición no llenan la mesa y el estomago con promesas, exigen soluciones definitivas. 🛑 #ministroloyo #cangrejoazul #marcorubio #insopesca #queremostrabajar🦀

Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services are asking for public input on electromagnetic fields, radiofrequency radiation, wireless exposure and human health.

I want space weather included in that conversation. ☀️🌎

My paper asks researchers to study natural geomagnetic conditions alongside wireless exposure, investigate health and wildlife outcomes, and strengthen preparedness for disruptions to power and communications.

📖 Read my blog and paper:

Can you identify a humpback whale by its tail?

Scientists can, and that's just one of the fascinating ways researchers study these marine mammals.

In the latest episode of Science is Cool Unplugged by PocketLab, Dave Bakker sits down with Sara Wood of NOAA's Hawaiian Islands Humpback Whale National Marine Sanctuary to explore whale migration, communication, conservation and the technology helping scientists better understand these ocean giants.

From unique tail patterns to drone research, their conversation brings real-world science to life and offers educators new ways to connect scientific observation, ecosystems and animal behavior to classroom learning.

Dive into the science behind Hawai‘i's humpback whales.

Listen to the full episode on our website.

En mi último viaje a Maldivas, el mar estaba a 30 grados. Rico para bucear. Peligroso para los corales. 🪸🌡️

¿Qué le pasa a un coral cuando el agua se calienta?

🪸 El coral vive gracias a unas algas que le dan comida y color.
🌡️ Con el agua muy caliente, se estresa, las expulsa y se vuelve blanco.
⚠️ Si el calor permanece, muere de hambre.

Y cuando muere el coral:

🐠 Se pierde el hogar de una cuarta parte de la vida marina.
🏝️ Las playas se erosionan, porque el arrecife es lo que protege las costas.
👥 Casi mil millones de personas que viven del mar pierden comida y trabajo.

Este año llega el fenómeno de El Niño uno de los más calientes de la historia y calentará el mar aún más.

¿Sabías que el coral se moría de hambre? Cuéntame en los comentarios 👇

🪚Another successful day of training! Participants strapped on their safety gear and gained hands-on experience in safe chainsaw operation and proper tree pruning techniques through the Virgin Islands Urban Forestry and First Aid/CPR Certification Training, offered under the Workforce Training Program for Nature-Based Solutions. Building skills, confidence, and a stronger workforce, one tree at a time! 🌳💚
