It's been two years since millions of people looked out from Twitter and jumped into the Fediverse. I'm so happy you're here!

For those celebrating their second #Fediversary - do your friends a favour and remind them there's an alternative.

No-one here is having dinner with Trump tonight. No-one here is a bigoted billionaire.

The network is us.

There's plenty for us to improve, but plenty to love, too.

Share the love, go invite three friends today, they might be having a bit of a day... 💙

"We have long known that dragging heavy fishing nets—some as large as ten 747 jets—across the ocean floor destroys sea life and habitats.

Only recently, we have discovered that #BottomTrawling also unleashes plumes of carbon, which otherwise would be safely stored for millennia in the ocean floor. "

"The amount of carbon dioxide released into the ocean from bottom trawling is on the same order of magnitude as annual carbon dioxide #emissions from global aviation."

Team uncovers new marine source of carbon emissions into atmosphere

Bottom trawling is a previously unaccounted for source of atmospheric carbon emissions, scientists reveal in a study published today. As the world scrambles to slash emissions caused by fossil fuels, deforestation and other sources, the study finds bottom trawling—the act of dragging a heavy fishing net across the ocean floor and resuspending some of the carbon in the seafloor sediment—to be a significant source of atmospheric carbon pollution.
