Volunteers planted 1,100 trees at Great Avon Wood, a 113-acre partnership project between Avon Needs Trees and the Forest of Avon Trust. The project aims to restore woodland, enhance biodiversity, and combat climate change and flooding risks.

And why would Trump care about lobsters?

Senator #AngusKing fumes at #ClimateChange being nixed from annual threat assessment

Chris D’Angelo for The Maine Monitor April 8, 2025

"#Maine has been described as a 'climate haven,' [the same for #Vermont] a place expected to remain relatively sheltered from the most extreme and dangerous impacts of global climate change. But the #PineTreeState is far from immune.

"Fossil fuel-driven climate change is intensifying #HeatWaves, #flooding and other #ExtremeWeather events. Waters in the #GulfOfMaine are warming faster than nearly every other swath of ocean on the planet, threatening the future of the state’s signature #lobster industry and other #fisheries.

"Sea levels here are forecast to rise approximately 4 feet by the end of the century, forcing coastal communities, shipyards and military installations to prepare and adapt.

" 'This is a guaranteed threat,' said #AmyEshoo, director of #MaineClimateActionNow. 'It’s not one we can negotiate with. It’s not one that we can put #tariffs on. It’s not one we can go to the table with. We unleashed it. It’s here. We’re feeling its effects. Maine is definitely feeling them.' "

Weekly Weather Watch: April 8, 2025

Devastating flooding continues across the Central U.S., from the Lower Mississippi into the Ohio Valley. Recent extreme rainfall has pushed rivers beyond their banks, and more rain is on the way this week into next.

Meanwhile: Record heat is building across the West and Central U.S.—early season highs could break long-standing records.

Read the full breakdown of what to expect across the country this week:

Feeling really grateful right now that our home has not been affected by the catastrophic #flooding in Kentucky. These are photos I just pulled from the #Louisville Reddit
page. Those are street lamps poking out of the water in the first
pic. Schools were closed today and will be again tomorrow because so many streets are flooded. The river is not expected to crest until Wednesday.

Who monitors coal ash pits, dams and floodwater at former coal plants? The owner

This weighs heavy on my mind today because a few miles upstream of my rural Ohio village on the #OhioRiver, with 7-blocks of its 9-blocks under water and river flooded, is a decommissioned coal plant. The largest coal ash pit at the site is 163 acres, more than 2 miles long if you walk all the way around to where you started at. #Flooding #Ohio #Coal #environment

Significant, generational and historic #flooding across the Ohio River Valley following multiple days of heavy rainfall and severe storms. You can see the extent of the flooding in the Sentinel-1 #SAR derived flood mapping I made in support of operations here. I have masked out normal water detection from previous Sentinel-1 images so I'm only highlighting the floods.
