As carbon-fee-and-dividend legislation prepares for reintroduction in the new Congress, we heard from economist Dr. Noah Kaufman. He was the lead author of the 2019 Columbia University assessment of the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, which confirmed the bill's environmental and economic effectiveness.

Seismic airgun testing, used for offshore oil and gas, poses a severe threat to the ocean's soundscape. These powerful blasts injure marine life, endanger regional fisheries, and jeopardize the livelihoods of those dependent on the ocean.

The Bureau of Ocean Energy Management (BOEM) is currently preparing an environmental impact statement (EIS) on expanding seismic testing in the Mid and South Atlantic. BOEM must incorporate the latest science to fully assess these risks. Help raise awareness about this destructive practice. For more information, visit: http://oceana.org/seismic.
