The intrinsic dimensionality (ID) of the SHIFT mosaic acquired on February 24, 2022. The ocean has lower ID (~5), and the developed/agricultural regions have the highest ID (>20). Field sites are overlain in black squares. Low ID values around the edges of the flight lines are due to fewer pixels and zero padding within the outer cells. The inset shows the National Landcover Database over the same region, where pink is developed land, green is forest, tan is shrub/scrub, yellow is herbaceous, and cyan is cultivated crops (United States Geological Survey, 2021; note that this has been recolored from the conventional classification to aid with differentiation between colors)

US exits carbon talks on shipping, urges others to follow. Ironically, the US is withdrawing from an international effort to reduce maritime GHG emissions because the US wants to “protect” Americans and US economic interests when, in fact, to withdraw does the opposite.

Biodiversity loss in all species and every ecosystem linked to humans – report Sweeping synthesis of 2,000 global studies leaves no doubt about scale of problem and role of humans, say experts

Humans are driving biodiversity loss among all species across the planet, one of the most exhaustive global studies on the subject ever conducted finds.

This is *us*, people: you + me. It's up to all of us to get into the fight for the natural world. 🌏
