Climate Change Driving Gray Whale "Catastrophic Mortality Event"

Environmental groups warn climate change is causing a "catastrophic mortality event" for Pacific gray whales due to food depletion from melting sea ice. Other factors like ship strikes and pollution also contribute, leading to a near halving of the population since 2019. A petition to relist them under the Endangered Species Act is pending.

Republicans Cancel Vote on Bill to Weaken Endangered Species Act After Party Opposition

The bill, introduced by Rep. Bruce Westerman (R-Ark.), faced opposition from Republicans representing tourism-dependent areas along the Gulf, with Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-Fla.) posting 'Don\'t tread on my turtles. Protected means protected.' The vote was scheduled for Earth Day.
