Squid Facts, Heat Islands and Threatened Rivers
This week's investigative reporting, analysis and environmental news.
No. 253, Sept. 29, 2022
Hello Revelator readers,
Researchers have dubbed this month “Squidtember.” We had a conversation with biologist Sarah McAnulty about why these cephalopods are so important and the power of talking about science.
Climate change and decades of inequity are making “heat islands” in cities worse. Governments are taking action to tackle these emerging health risks.
Our stories rely on insight from experts, frontline activists and readers around the world — especially these days, when so much seems to be happening so fast. We want to hear from you, so please drop us a line anytime.
Coming up:
Should we stop using the word “poacher”? Check back tomorrow for a look at the history of the word and why it doesn't serve conservation efforts well anymore.
As always, thank you for reading. Stay safe and connected.
