America is a global leader in climate science, but we must do more and invest in: ✅ Forests as Carbon Reserves ✅ Long-term environmental monitoring ✅ Next generation Earth system modeling ✅ Federal climate scientists @kakryc & @DavidReidmiller ow.ly/KIhO50FTwBg
The @IPCC_CH’s new #ClimateReport is the authority on climate science for policymakers around the world. NEW column by @kakryc and @GMRI lays out how the U.S. can maintain its scientific leadership in combating the climate crisis. americanprogress.org/?p=502452
“This crisis demands immediate climate leadership at every level, coupled with investments in science & technology from our own U.S. Congress—to start—to stave off the worst impacts.” - @kakryc of @amprog on the @IPCC_CH 6th Assessment Report usatoday.com/story/news/wor…
Today, the @IPCC_CH released a report compiling the latest in scientific knowledge on climate change. This #ClimateReport gives a robust picture of past & present global climate conditions, and models future climate projections. (🧵:) ipcc.ch/assessment-rep…
“Critically, this report shows that climate catastrophes that were projected in previous @IPCC_CH reports are now actually happening, which is both chilling & underscores the need to trust the science and further invest in solutions.” - @kakryc of @amprog. americanprogress.org/press/statemen…
It’s time to invest in #OceanClimateAction. Marine wildlife are vulnerable to climate change too. @POTUS, permanently protecting Northeast Canyons & Seamounts can create a safe haven for species to thrive in the face of warming oceans. Learn more: americanprogress.org/?p=501559
What ocean wildlife was protected before Trump gutted the Atlantic’s only marine monument? 🐬🦑🦈🐳🐙🐟🦆 What is protected now? 🐙🐟 (but not all of them!) More from @kakryc: americanprogress.org/?p=501559
NEW from @kakryc: New science shows Trump’s anti-conservation rollbacks threaten the Northeast Canyons & Seamounts Marine National Monument. @POTUS must restore strong, permanent protections to save this haven for ocean wildlife. #SaveTheSeamounts americanprogress.org/?p=501559
The Northeast Canyons and Seamounts #MarineNationalMonument is the only marine monument in the U.S. Atlantic Ocean. A study published today found that opening the monument to commercial fishing reduces species protection in this biodiverse area: buff.ly/3hEWRDx
Ocean literacy is key to understanding and protecting our planet. There is only one ocean and it connects all of us. Our language should reflect this. Will you join us and #droptheS? youtu.be/TUEF9fxbj4I #WorldOceanDay
Happy World Ocean Day! #DYK June is also #NationalOceanMonth? Follow along this thread as we celebrate the ocean and the actions we need to take to ensure just, equitable and inclusive ocean-climate policy! #OceanClimateAction 🧵
@OceanProgress @kakryc Congrats Kelly! Wise decision by @OceanProgress!
We are so excited to announce that Kelly Kryc (@kakryc) has joined our team as a senior fellow! Give her a follow to keep up with her good work as we continue to advocate for #OceanClimateAction! americanprogress.org/press/release/…
By protecting at least 30% of the U.S. ocean by 2030, we can ensure that coastal communities thrive, ocean life is nurtured, and the #ocean has a chance to adapt to climate change. Thank you @POTUS for taking action to #Protect30x30!
🖼👩🔬 Join us for @PictureaSciFilm panel discussion tomorrow w/ @CindyLeifer @CorrieMoreau @kakryc @CornellOISE @cornellvet @CornellGrad @CornellOFDD @CornellEAS @BrighterBeams
Yesterday, 40 bipartisan members of Congress called on the Biden Admin to make a $10B investment in #OceanClimateAction projects. Thank you @USRepKeating, @ChrisPappasNH, @davidcicilline, @RepJoeCourtney, @JimLangevin, and @chelliepingree for supporting #OceanClimateAction!
From Acadia to Katahdin, Maine has a long history of conserving our natural heritage. But not all of our majestic wild areas are on land. Read about how the NE #CanyonsAndSeamounts Monument protects ocean life: @KelseyLamp & @NEAQ's @kakryc, @PressHerald pressherald.com/2021/03/07/mai…
"If we could see this monument above the waves, its landscape would be as dramatic as any on land." Learn more about why we need to protect the #CanyonsAndSeamounts from @NEAQ's Kelly Kryc and @EnvironmentME's Kelsey Lamp in the @PressHerald buff.ly/2N1JuSO
A healthy planet keeps us all - humans, plants, animals, fungi—alive. That’s why it’s on us to protect what we can, while we can. #MonumentsForAll 🐟🐠 bit.ly/3esrsEi
