The North Atlantic right whale isn't doing well. Fewer than 350 of these stocky creatures are thought to remain-and their numbers are shrinking. In the last six years, vessel strikes, entanglements in fishing gear, and unknown causes have killed or injured at least 92 animals, putting the whales at risk of disappearing forever.
To help save the species, two major environmental groups have urged consumers to rethink their seafood choices, particularly lobster: Last fall, the Marine Stewardship Council, the world's largest seafood eco-label, and the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch program, a popular US-based seafood guide, ruled that Maine lobster was no longer rated "sustainable" or considered a "good alternative" due to the risk the fishery-and its vertical fishing lines, which run from a float on top to a trap on the seabed floor-poses to right whales. In response, meal kit company HelloFresh pulled lobster from its menus, and Whole Foods announced it would temporarily stop selling lobster fished in the Gulf of Maine.

Overturning Roe didn't just bludgeon abortion access. It sabotaged science, too. In early May 2022, reproductive health researcher Liz Mosley was at a dinner celebrating her first day as an assistant professor at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine when the news broke: A leaked draft of the Dobbs decision revealed the Supreme Court’s plan to gut abortion rights in the United States—the “worst-case scenario,” as one dinner guest put it.

Growing Pains - Why are governors rejecting funds for kids' summer meals?
The Summer Electronic Benefit Transfer Program for Children (EBT), the first new federal food aid initiative in decades, is a permanent extension of Congress’ Covid-era relief that sought to provide extra meals for more than 30 million school kids who qualify for free or reduced-price lunches. But more than 10 million children will miss out this summer, according to the USDA. Thirteen other states—Alabama, Alaska, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Louisiana, Mississippi, Oklahoma, South Carolina, South Dakota, Texas, Utah, and Wyoming—also chose not to enroll. And they all have something else in common: Republican governors.

Mission from God. Church And Statehood– A new Puerto Rican political party puts faith before status.
A new Puerto Rican political party puts faith before status. Puerto Rico’s churches, which in recent decades were mostly confined to private life, are now reshaping political dynamics. Proyecto Dignidad is a reflection of a broader populist global trend, and it draws inspiration from the Trump playbook and other domestic right-wing currents that helped him win over significant numbers of Latino voters in 2020.
