This visualization illustrates the rise in global temperatures from 1880 through the end of 2013. NASA scientists report that 2013 tied for the seventh warmest year since 1880, continuing a significant long-term warming trend. Notably, with the exception of 1998, the ten warmest years on record have all occurred since 2000, with 2010 and 2005 ranking as the hottest.

The visualization displays a running five-year average global temperature, compared to a 1951-1980 baseline. A color-coded map shows surface temperature anomalies, with red indicating higher and blue indicating lower than normal temperatures.

The Alaska Department of Fish and Game plans to kill bears to save the struggling Mulchatna caribou herd, which has plummeted from 200,000 to 16,000. However, scientists and conservation groups, including the Center for Biological Diversity, contend this program lacks scientific support. Courts have already ruled against the initiative.

Independent experts identify disease and food scarcity, exacerbated by climate change, as the primary drivers of the caribou's decline, not bear predation. They assert that killing bears will not achieve long-term recovery. Wildlife management should prioritize science, sustainability, and ecosystem protection over scapegoating.

An Alaska Superior Court ruling permits the state to kill an unlimited number of black and brown bears across 40,000 square miles of southwest Alaska this summer. The state claims this "bear

An Alaska Superior Court ruling permits the state to kill an unlimited number of black and brown bears across 40,000 square miles of southwest Alaska this summer. The state claims this "bear control program" will boost a struggling caribou herd, but there is no scientific evidence to support this assertion.

Cooper Freeman, Alaska director at the Center for Biological Diversity, expressed concern about the "unlawful plan's irreversible consequences" and the lack of scientific basis. He emphasized the need to protect wildlife based on science, not "disgraceful waste of the state’s limited resources."

The Center for Biological Diversity and Alaska Wildlife Alliance are collaborating to stop this program. Support their efforts in this critical fight.
