i try to emphasize good news

and if i can't do that i try to emphasize anger over sadness

but there's nothing i can do about this bit of news except be depressed:

"Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor #penguins at risk of #extinction"

https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/apr/09/mass-drowning-of-chicks-puts-emperor-penguins-at-risk-of-extinction

essentially, #globalWarming, the #climateCrisis, is breaking up the ice the #emperorPenguin depends upon to raise its young, and this is resulting in mass killings of their young now

😔

Mass drowning of chicks puts emperor penguins at risk of extinction

Record low levels of Antarctic sea ice is having grim consequences for penguins yet to grow waterproof feathers

There are plenty of appropriate anger targets for this:
• oil company leaders
• petro-state leaders
• plutocrats in private jets and yachts
• auto company leaders (mainly American) still pushing oversized and non-EV vehicles
• anybody still dragging their heels on renewables
• anybody still dragging their heels on public transit
