The Nova Scotia supreme court acknowledged the urgency of the wildfire crisis, it warned that if individual rights aren't protected, they can be eroded in a way that eventually affects everyone.

The old oyster rule refers to the toxic red tides common in ocean waters during warmer months - which also happens to be oyster spawning season.

"Extending the spring crab season with pop-up gear helps support an economically vital fishery while preventing whale entanglements. It's a true 'win-win' for fisheries and wildlife."

"The most successful wildlife trips follow animal patterns and seasonality," says Condé Nast Traveler Top Travel Specialist Josh Geller of Embark Beyond.

A split-lobster, also called a chimera, is one color on one half of its body and a completely different color on the other half, according to the Seacoast Science Center.

Border walls are located along imaginary geopolitical boundaries. They slice arbitrarily through critical ecosystems that know only natural boundaries, cutting wild animals off from the resources they need to live—food, water, a diverse selection of mates—and the ability to migrate for survival.

"There are not very many conservation issues that I'm aware of where industry and conservationists and consumers and the fishermen and the resource users all want the same thing. Every stakeholder wants less bycatch."

The Trump administration has teed up the entire Gulf region for a Deepwater Horizon sequel with its approval of BP's extremely risky ultra-deepwater drilling project, said Brettny Hardy, senior attorney at Earthjustice, one of the groups.

While Natural England dithers and reviews processes, irreplaceable wildlife sites are being trashed, damaged, and even built over. That is not a technical failure, it's a dereliction of duty.

The haul of lobsters, Maine's best known export and a key piece of the state's identity and culture, has declined every year since 2021, and some scientists have cited as a reason warming oceans that spur migration to Canadian waters.

These polymetallic nodules, as they're known, take millions of years to form, slowly accumulating metals like nickel, cobalt and manganese. That's made them a target for mining companies, looking to feed the world's growing hunger for materials that go into advanced batteries and other technologies.

Recovered CWMs continue to pose worker and food safety risks. Because of ocean drift, storms, and offshore industries, sea-disposed CWMs locations are largely unknown and potentially far from their originally documented dump site. The three incidents exposed at least six crew members to mustard agent, which causes blistering chemical burns on skin and mucous membranes.

One veteran biologist said it was the most positive freshwater conservation story he had seen anywhere in the world in 20 years. It is really fantastic news. It is one of the first times that we can say that government measures have not just worked, but have really improved things, said Sebastien Brosse, of the University of Toulouse in France.

At the center of the dispute are eight dams and reservoirs on the Columbia and Snake Rivers in the Pacific north-west that have created devastating obstacles for salmon and steelhead unable to breach their deadly turbines or navigate through the large, warm, artificial pools.

The resolution, drawn up by 3rd District Supervisor Justin Cummings, states that deep-sea mining remains an unproven, speculative industry with no demonstrated record of safe commercial-scale operation, while existing coastal and ocean economies including fisheries, tourism, recreation, and cultural practices depend upon healthy marine ecosystems that could be jeopardized by seabed mining impacts.
