🚗 Florida Panthers Battle for Survival on the Open Road 🐾 With only 120-230 adults left, the endangered Florida panther faces a fierce battle for survival. Surprisingly, its deadliest threat isn't from nature but from vehicle collisions. This year alone, at least 12 of the 16 reported panther deaths were due to road accidents. Despite the grim statistics, there's a silver lining. The current numbers suggest stability in panther populations, contrasting with last year's lower collision figures that hinted at a population decline. As human development expands rapidly in Florida, state officials are urging drivers to obey speed limits to protect these majestic predators.

“Tasmania’s salmon industry: battling seals with guns and traps, mired in scandal and public outcry in a relentless war with nature.” The Tasmanian salmon industry’s war against fur seals has led to a cascade of scandals. Farmers, struggling with the growing seal population, resorted to drastic measures, including relocating and killing over 2,000 seals annually by 2017. The choice of weapons included shooting and dumping the bodies on local tips. This brutal practice caused public outrage and mental health issues among local fishermen. Despite the secrecy of the seal-trapping program, it became a significant issue in the 2018 Braddon by-election, with anti-salmon industry candidate Garland securing a surprising 11% of the vote, impacting the expected Liberal Party victory. It’s your choice Choose wisely! RNS will only ever use Land based salmon farms ✊ #SalmonIndustry #FurSeals #EnvironmentalScandal #WildlifeConservation #Tasmania #AnimalRights #MarineLife #PublicOutcry #EcologicalImpact #FishingIndustry

If state police cannot be implemented soonest, FGN should allow the states to take over the running of the FOREST GUARDS. States should be allowed to equip them beyond just protecting the forest resources from animal poachers, but to sufficiently deny criminals from freedom of action in the forests. Also, other coastal states should be allowed to establish CREEK GUARDS.

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 🔥🗣 Innovation matters. In a nation that recently witnessed the spread disinformation for political gain during disasters, the beacon that is Watch Duty sets a standard of care and integrity that should be emulated and embodied across silos and sectors in this work. The key here is a dedication to facts. To safety. To be brave and willing to create. We have to be willing to run towards the Climate-Induced Disasters Innovation space. We have to stop creating plans to flee and start formations to fight for a safer tomorrow for all Americans, irrespective of income, political ideologies, ethnicity, immigration status. It will take all of us with everything we have to mitigate risk, increase resilience, and adopt new ways to navigate. In a world where you can choose to be an Elon or a John Clarke Mills, be a John. Every time. Every day. After the Fire USA
