 Learn something new.

You are interested in taking action to help the environment, but you aren’t sure where to start. Maybe the amount of information is overwhelming or you’re not sure which specific issues matter most to you. Either way, learning something new this Earth Day is a good next step.

Pick one topic to learn about, whether it is something you can put into action right away or just a way to deepen your understanding of the environment. A few ideas for how to learn more:

Follow a few social media accounts related to the environment (we hear NOAA social media is a good place to start *wink*).

If you’re ready for a deep dive, look into a book, podcast, videos, or documentary. You could even follow along with the Planet Stewards book club!

If you find the nuances of environmental issues overwhelming, consider pulling apart some of the complexity by deliberately examining an issue you care about through the lens of environmental justice.

Sharing a Passion

Hello my deep sea lovers and enthusiasts. First off I'd like to say that more posts will be coming as this semester winds down, so keep your eyes out as I'll be focusing on some cool critters in the future!

As for today, this post will be dedicated to shouting out some other blogs and creators that I truly admire and adore. While I know that this blog is still small and I haven't much of a following yet myself I think that it is important that we recognize other work in the STEM field, constantly educating ourselves with other's work and in turn sharing our own knowledge. The blogs and recourses I will be sharing today include The Deep-Ocean Stewardship Initiative (DOSI), The Deep-Sea Podcast, and lastly a personal hero of mine, Sylvia Earle.

DOSI works to combine research from various scientists and organizations across various disciplines to work on aiding governance at the UN concerning sustainability within the deep ocean. They offer a weekly newsletter along with policy briefs and a wide variety of other resources, which can be found on their website. They also can be found on various social medias such as twitter or instagram. A recent post that I enjoyed was a Halloween inspired article titled A Spooky Deep-Sea Round-Up, also linked in a recent twitter post.

The Article discussed a variety of topics from an analysis of who attended an international online conference to glow worms and their enzymes and even lobster distribution. This particular article was a wild card mix match of various relevant deep sea topics that all can enjoy (although some of the terminology may require a bit of googling for some).

Our next feature is a podcast that I have more recently started to listen to, but I truly enjoy! Its perfect for listening to as some background noise when you're pre-occupied, or maybe on a longer drive. The Deep-Sea Podcast can be found on Spotify (which can be enjoyed for free with a few adds). The podcast's host features some pretty prevalent deep-sea scientists and discuss some misconceptions, new findings, and everything else deep ocean related. One of my favorite episodes so far has been episode 002, "Exploring the Mariana Trench. Guest: Don Walsh". For my readers who are unaware, Don Walsh is like a living legend in deep-sea exploration, having been one of two of the first people to dive to the deepest point in the ocean, the Challenger Deep. The episode breaks down what is actually known about the Mariana Trench along with many of Don's other expeditions. It's really amazing to be able to hear about these amazing explorations from someone who has encountered them first hand, so from any episode, this should go on your "must listen" list. Some of the fun creatures located at this depth can be seen just below, and may be a bit of a sneak-peak at an upcoming post ;).

Lastly we have the stunning, talented, absolute power house of a woman in STEM, Sylvia Earle. Now I get it, what can be soooo great about one person when there are so many amazing scientists studying the ocean. Yes, this is true! But my wonderful readers, Sylvia Earle is a trailblazer for women in STEM. Not only was she one of the pioneers for modern SCUBA equipment use, but she was often one of the first women to be on many scientific ocean studying teams, including an experiment to test the ability to live underwater for prolonged periods of time. She was the first female chief scientist at NOAA, has countless samples stored in the Smithsonian, over 150 written works, over 7000 logged underwater hours, is the founder of Mission Blue, should I keep going? Sylvia updates constantly on twitter and posts or information from NOAA or Mission Blue can also great sources of information or lectures from her. I highly encourage anyone, not just my STEM loving females to investigate and appreciate this amazing woman and the treasure trove of knowledge she has to share.

I once again thank you for coming to enjoy the beauties of the deep ocean, and for today, some of the wonderful scientists and organizations who contribute to our knowledge and understanding of the big blue. Check in soon for more post!

Nature Is Healing: A Seal Now Lives on My Lawn

This month, Spencer Andrich, a high school Social Studies teacher based in Anacortes, Washington, found himself sheltering in place with an unlikely companion. “I was lesson planning on my computer, and I looked out the window, and there was a giant elephant seal kind of coming towards the house.”

Since Washington State Governor Jay Inslee issued a Stay at Home Order on March 23rd, Andrich has been living at his family’s beachfront property about 60 miles north of Seattle. The home has been in his family for three generations, but according to Andrich, an elephant seal visit is a first. “I don’t think we ever had anything close to this happen here.”

Listen and subscribe: Via Apple Podcasts | Via Spotify | Via Stitcher or anywhere else you get your podcasts.

Andrich got some help identifying the elephant seal from Ralph Downes, an enforcement officer for the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife, and who has encountered her many times on his patrols.

“I got on the horn with Ralph, and he immediately knew who she was. She has three tags on her flippers, [but] he didn’t have to ID them. He goes, ‘I’ll bet you anything that’s Elsie May,’” Andrich said.

While the tagged flippers confirmed Downes’ guess, it was her unusual behavior that had given her away in the first place. Andrich summarized Elsie May’s reputation among biologists, enforcement officers, and others familiar with the seal: “Apparently, she’s very social. She gives zero effs. And she knows she’s on the top.”

Northern elephant seals spend the majority of their lives out in the open ocean. They can dive for up to two hours underwater and come to the surface for just a few minutes at a time. In the spring, elephant seals make the rare visit ashore to molt, where they shed fur and regrow their upper layer of skin. A typical elephant seal seeks out remote stretches of beach for a month-long period of undisturbed molting.

Not Elsie May.

“For whatever reason, she associates our area, Whidbey and Fidalgo Islands, as a safe haven. And since she’s seen people throughout her life, she doesn’t mind cars and dogs and people,” Downes said. “In fact, she’s a little inquisitive. She wants to come closer to see what the heck you’re doing.”

That was Andrich’s experience with Elsie May. One morning, Andrich was filming her from the safety of his kitchen when she approached the house and attempted to come inside through a sliding glass door. “I was saying ‘no no no’ because she could easily break that glass door. I imagine she’s hundreds if not thousands of pounds.” Female Elephant Seals can weigh up to 1,300 pounds, according to NOAA Fisheries.

Elsie May didn’t end up breaking the glass. Instead, she settled on the outer screen door, which “she shredded,” according to Andrich.

Later that day, Andrich got another video of her fast asleep on the lawn.

Elsie May did not end up molting on Andrich’s property. On day three of Elsie May’s visit, Andrich was on a conference call when he saw her begin to make her way back to the ocean. As soon as the call ended, Anrich recalls,“I immediately went on my paddle board to see if I could find her, but she was gone.”

Andrich had initially been a little worried about the prospect of cohabiting with a wild animal, but he found himself feeling surprisingly emotional at her departure: “Well especially during a time of quarantine and not being able to see people, it was definitely a welcomed interaction. She picked the right time to come and visit.”

We often consider of the ocean as a peaceful, tranquil place, crammed with animals that never make a great deal noise. So when I went diving in the ocean for the to start with time, I was stunned at how wealthy the soundscape all over me was: you could hear fish nibbling on coral and squid swimming earlier you. But a lot more than anything, you could nearly often hear the hum of a boat motor. It can be portion of a major dilemma in the ocean correct now. Ship site visitors noise has doubled each decade considering that the 1960s — and it is really wreaking havoc on maritime everyday living.

This online video was created in collaboration with Twenty Thousand Hertz, a podcast that dives deep into all forms of tales about audio. Every thing from "who's the human being behind the voice on your cell phone," to "what do other planets audio like to our ears?"
