“In 1974, my objective was to eradicate whaling, and I hope to do that before I die.” Paul Watson, the founder of Sea Shepherd, is currently facing possible extradition to Japan, where he could be sentenced to 15 years in prison. He is currently being held in detention in Greenland. In an interview, he said that his prison cell feels almost like being on the deck of his ship. He referred to it as the best prison cell he's ever been in. Because he can watch whales and icebergs pass by his window. He was arrested for causing damage to one of Japan's whaling ships in the Antarctic in 2010. He was detained last July, and tomorrow a decision will be made on whether to extend his custody in Greenland. Why does it have to come down to this? Watson says that in his fight, he doesn't use violence. He's only trying to protect our planet. Shouldn't everyone be doing that? I'm posting this not only to raise awareness about the arrest and potential imprisonment, but also to highlight Watson as a hero for marine conservation. Whales are extremely important for the planet, and they must be protected. They're magnificent creatures—my personal favourite—but more importantly, they play a huge role in combating climate change.

Let’s talk about cigarettes. I woke up this morning to the smell of cigarette smoke coming up through my bedroom window in Barcelona. “These things should be banned”, I thought. They smell bad. They harm our health. They pollute our oceans. They end up on our streets. And that’s not all, it seems. I did a little research. This is what I found.?? Tobacco farming removes approximately 200,000 hectares of forests and woodlands annually. Tobacco cultivation consumes 22 billion tonnes of water each year. Cigarette smoke emits 10 times more particulate matter than diesel exhaust. (My brain exploded here ??) Cigarettes kill more than 8 million people each year. Cigarette butts are made of plastic filters (I knew that, but perhaps you didn’t) and they’re the most littered item globally. Yep, 4.5 trillion butts are discarded each year. And that’s excluding e-cigarette waste. Wow, that’s a lot! So now, please, can you give me one good reason why we should continue producing cigarettes? This escalated quickly. Rant over. Give this a repost ?? to spread the word. Let’s save our planet. ?? #tobaccofarming #environment #protectwhatyoulove

Our website was intentionally designed to use less energy and produce fewer CO2 emissions. We recently switched our website to dark mode to reduce our emissions further. We aim to raise awareness of sustainable web design and hope to inspire others to reduce their website carbon footprint. Read more about how we did it.

Green is the colour of sustainability. ?? Nowadays, many seem to believe that simply using green makes them sustainable. But there’s another colour that promotes sustainability: black. Switching our websites to black (or dark mode) can help save energy and reduce our carbon footprint. We recently made the switch — our website is now in dark mode. Our emissions were reduced by a further 7.69%. The initial plan was to provide an option for visitors to switch between light and dark mode, but we decided to go fully dark. Let us know what you think! If you don’t have a website but want to do your part, switch your phone to dark mode. You’ll save battery power and use less energy by recharging less frequently. #darkmode #sustainablewebdesign #sustainability

Our website is getting a small revamp. We’re aiming to reduce the website’s carbon emissions even further. Keep an eye out — we’ll be publishing soon. ?? #digitalsustainability #sustainability #sustainablewebdesign
