Idyllic rural NSW is a hotspot for motor neurone disease
"Our recent mortality paper shows that if you live in rural and regional Australia, you are 40 per cent more likely to die from motor neurone disease. This cannot be genetic."
"Much attention will be focused on MND hotspots which include regional centres such as Griffith, Leeton, Wagga Wagga and Narrandera in the Riverina where rates of the degenerative illness are estimated to be five to seven times the national average. Other areas of concern include Tamworth, Coffs Harbour and Port Macquarie." >>

🏒🥅🇨🇦🏆 THE NHL COACHING CHURN
Q is an outlier. NHL average is about three years, last time I looked. Oilers, 2+.
I don’t know how this rate of churn helps build organizational stability. I’m pretty sure it doesn’t.
I do think Q’s time in Chicago speaks to the value, from a Cup-winning perspective, of letting coach and team go through the inevitable ups and downs without threat of firing.
But that requires organizational (and, especially, owner) patience. And especially in hockey-mad/obsessive/fanatic markets.
I imagine the tenure of coach Mike Babcock will be short, here in Oilerville. Regardless of any Cup success. More churn.
I’m very curious to watch coach and wunderkind Martin St-Louis and the Habs over the next few years#coaching #letsgoOilers #Oilers #habs #nhl #stanleycup #hockey #hnom #yeg #edmonton #montreal @hnom

🏒🥅🇨🇦🏆 HOCKEY, MONEY, CUPS
Montreal. They are the other template. They have an emerging and large elite corps signed for win-friendly contracts for 5-8 years.
Let’s see how the two models (get rich v get Cup) play out over the next five years.
McD isn’t here in Oilerville for the money. As long as there’s a good chance to win the Cup, I believe he’s with Drai and Bouch. That chance to win gets better as so many other teams deal with the “get rich” model.Montreal will win multiple Cups in the next decade. Oilers, a couple. The get rich players? Not so many.

"Hotter oceans
exacerbate the sea level rise and extreme storms that threaten billions of people, as well as driving marine heatwaves that decimate sea life and undermine coastal livelihoods, scientists warned.""The average surface temperature was 21.1C, with the rising marine heat a stark indicator of the climate crisis. More than 90% of the heat trapped by carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning enters the oceans."
"Most of the planet-heating CO2 from fossil fuel burning and forest destruction is absorbed by the oceans. However, a hotter ocean is less efficient at absorbing CO2. This is potentially weakening one of the planet’s most important natural buffers against global heating, the scientists said."
“Fossil fuel emissions need to be rapidly reduced. Meanwhile, it is essential that countries protect marine and coastal ecosystems. Kelp beds, mangroves and marshes absorb carbon and coral reefs protect against storms and provide habitat. More than 190 governments have committed to protect and conserve at least 30% of the planet by 2030, and now is the time to turn that commitment into effective, durable conservation on the ground.” >>

An underwater disaster: Marine heatwaves are cooking our ocean ecosystems – and will only become more common
" Marine heatwaves happen when the ocean remains abnormally hot for an extended period. While they may be invisible from the shore, their impacts can wreak havoc underwater – killing various kinds of coral, seagrass and fish." >>

Our climate fiasco: Falls in whale sightings, rare seabirds appearing
"A huge, long-lasting and extreme marine heatwave stayed in place for many months. It became known as “the Blob”. Water temperatures were between 2°C and 6°C above normal. While this may not seem like a drastic change, it led to widespread ecosystem disruption. At least 240 species were found outside their normal ranges – some further north than ever recorded."
"It’s hard to overstate how extensive its effects were. Kelp forests disappeared. Millions of starfish dissolved into goo. Whales died. Seabirds starved. Toxic algal blooms appeared." >>

How media covers death and destruction in nature
Explicit content warnings needed for ecological disasters?"Disasters that affect our ecosystems can generate anxiety, grief and a sense of helplessness, which media reporting can amplify."
"SA’s experience with the algal bloom suggests it’s time to extend the logic of existing media guidelines into the environmental domain. A dedicated framework for reporting on environmental disasters would not censor or dilute journalism. It would strengthen it." >>

From climate denial to agnotology (the study of how ignorance and doubt are deliberately, culturally, or politically manufactured)
"It’s worth noting, human-made greenhouse gas emissions are the main driver of rising global average temperatures. However, El Niño can tip these temperatures to record breaking levels." >>
https://theconversation.com/the-weather-bureau-has-just-declared-an-el-nino-what-could-this-mean-for-australia-285376"Agnotology is the study of deliberate, culturally cultivated ignorance or doubt, typically to sell a product, influence opinion, or win favour, particularly through the publication of inaccurate or misleading scientific data (i.e. disinformation). More generally, the term includes the condition where more knowledge of a subject creates greater uncertainty." >>

#Algal #Toxins emerge as a new concern in #Alaska’s Northern Bering Sea
Locals who depend on the sea for food and culture are trying to understand the risks to traditional foods and wildlife populations in a region undergoing myriad changes
by Yereth Rosen, Alaska Beacon, May 31, 2026 via #ICTNews
Excerpt: "For countless generations, people of the #BeringStrait region have relied on the food they harvest from the sea without worrying about #HarmfulAlgalBlooms [#HABs] that threaten seafood eaters in warmer and more southern latitudes.
"Now, as the Northern Bering Sea undergoes cascading effects of a warming climate, algal risks pose a new challenge.
"The change has been dramatic.
"And it has prompted a change in the way #Nome youth grow up learning about collecting food from the waters around their home. In early April, Nome high school students traveled to Bethel with their science teacher, where they presented their research at the Western Alaska Interdisciplinary Science Conference held by Alaska Sea Grant.
"Algal toxins were present, at very low but detectable levels, in fish they eat.
"Sophomore Audrey Bruner-Alvanna was among the group of student researchers. She said young people are concerned about algal blooms, which proliferate in warmer conditions, and their potential effects on wild food resources.
" 'Because, you know, as the climate changes, as the world gets warmer and stuff, there’s going to be more of these toxins and stuff during summer,' she said. 'I feel like a lot of people that I’ve talked to have been wondering about how our subsistence is going to change in the future based on all of that.'
"The student research came about after one of the nation’s densest and biggest concentrations of toxin-producing Alexandrium algae ever documented burst forth in the waters of the Bering Strait region in 2022.
"Until the appearance of the 'massive bloom, the most toxic bloom, the longest-persisting bloom in the U.S.,' local people barely knew what harmful algal blooms or #Alexandrium are, said Emma Pate, president of the Nome Eskimo Community, the local tribal government.
" 'So we had to figure things out and learn really fast,' Pate said during an October 'Strait Science' presentation hosted by the University of Alaska Fairbanks’ Nome campus."

Welp, the last remaining reason to bother watching the NHL playoffs has been eliminated. Time to move on to more interesting things.

At least someone beat Carolina once, right? #Habs
Also wrong Carolina I know but it's all the same, right?

I's like to offer my most sincere condolences to people of Montréal.

🏒🥅 “Fire us up, Marty!”
This was a fun club to watch last year. This year, I don’t count them out as serious trouble for any club competing for the Cup. That includes my Oilers. It definitely includes the Panthers (Marty and the Habs had their number during the regular season last year.)

So, the waters off the Maine coast have been warming up (it was very warm when I last waded in the waters in May). Seems
Karenia mikimotoi has appeared here as well. I expect to see it return with warming waters... Also, this article claims it's less toxic that Red Tide (a cousin) -- but from what I just read in the ABC News article, I would disagree with that! @anne_twain @ToodenFrom WHOI:
"Karenia mikimotoi
- Globally distributed, can cause mass die-offs of shellfish, crustaceans, echinoderms and fish
- Karenia mikimotoi produces several toxic compounds, blooms can also lead to anoxic conditions
- First bloom in Maine occurred in 2017, with a second bloom in 2019
- Karenia mikimotoi is also found in Massachusetts waters"What is Karenia mikimotoi?
"In recent years, the genus Karenia has made the news in the United States as a result of the massive #RedTides caused by #KareniaBrevis [That's the one I know about]. These blooms have caused widespread fish and wildlife mortalities and impacted public health in Florida leading to significantly disrupted tourism and fisheries industries which have cost local economies millions of dollars in damages on an almost annual basis.
"Compared to this notorious HAB species, its sister species, Karenia mikimotoi, is less toxic [!!! Ummmm....] but more globally widespread with blooms reported in Ireland, Norway, India, Japan, Korea Australia, South Africa, Alaska, Texas, and the east coast of the U.S. The blooms of this species can stretch many kilometers, persist for multiple months, and reach concentrations of several million algal cells per liter.
"There have not been confirmed reports of direct impacts to human health by #KareniaMikimotoi, but blooms of this species can cause large-scale mortality events of marine fauna such as shellfish, echinoderms, crustaceans, and fish. Karenia mikimotoi has been shown to produce several toxic compounds as well as reactive oxygen species, but toxicity is highly variable by strain and the factors contributing to mortality events are still not entirely understood. Although overall concentrations of toxins in K. mikimotoi appear to be relatively low, there is evidence that their effect may be enhanced when the cells come into direct contact with fish gills. Anoxic conditions can also occur when K. mikimotoi cells die in large numbers and subsequent breakdown by bacteria deplete oxygen in the surrounding waters. These anoxic events have also contributed to die-offs."
What is the history of Karenia in the Northeast?
"Karenia mikimotoi was first isolated from a coastal lagoon near Woods Hole, MA in 1957 and classified at that time as Gyrodinium aureolum. Since this time, large scale blooms of K. mikimotoi appear to be an emerging problem in New England, with the first occurrence in Maine reported in August, 2017. This bloom was concentrated in the Fore River, Portland Harbor, and parts of the Harpswell coastal waters, and coincided with a die-off of softshell clams in Brunswick, ME. This mortality event cost fishermen $250,000, but a direct causal link between the bloom and shellfish mortality was not established. In August 2019 another bloom occurred in Casco Bay, with no mortalities recorded. Karenia mikimotoi is periodically found in Massachusetts waters, usually in the summer and early fall."
