Critically endangered angel shark filmed off Welsh coast First sighting in Cardigan Bay since 2021 of the species, which is under threat from human activities

It's thrilling to see an angelshark swim past a camera in Cardigan Bay, Wales. First sighting in years!

As I wrote in What the Wild Sea Can Be, angelsharks are critically endangered but they are certainly not gone. There's so much to fight for in our ocean 💙🌊🦑🦈

STUDY: Denmark tracked over a million children for 21 years, and found vaccines linked to zero extra cases of autism, asthma, or 48 other conditions.

Vaccines are safe, effective, and the best way to eradicate preventable disease. Period.

Kommer ni ihåg att svensk vattenförvaltning har ambitionen (sort of) att ha "Full koll på våra vatten"?

Här är ännu ett inslag som visar hur regeringen prioriterar havsmiljöövervakning.

Miljöövervakning = Ofta en mycket bra mätare av hur mycket man bryr sig om en miljö.

The Mythical Man-Month - Wikipedia

“The mythical man-month” is a classic for a reason. The reality is that for each added body, your project is PROLONGED by a month. Can’t say why I know, but if your management was ever cursed by the outsource or intern you didn’t ask for, you will know.

Can’t believe this needs to be said but here we are.

The MMR vaccine DOES NOT contain pieces of aborted fetuses. The vaccine contains weakened forms of measles, mumps, and rubella viruses and inactive ingredients like rHSA, neomycin, and sorbitol to stabilize the solution.

That’s it.

We are really close to reaching this weeks goal! Only 6,500$ left to fundraise today! While it’s a big number to fundraise over the Sunday, but we fundraised even more.
