🚨BIG NEWS🚨Thanks to the infrastructure law passed by @HouseDemocrats + signed by @POTUS, the Casco Bay Island Transit District has been awarded $3,600,000 to replace its aging ferry ⛴ with a new, hybrid vessel! This will eliminate 1,000 metric tons of CO2 emissions annually!

Look out for pop-up half shell tastings of aquacultured scallops this summer! @struan_coleman new collaboration with #VerticalFarm mainebiz.biz/article/10-mai…

Water temps in the Gulf of Maine just saw its warmest fall on record. Fall 2021 was 0.5 degrees warmer than 2012, which previously held the title. Reasons? Residual heat from a very warm summer (second warmest on record), warm fall air, & ocean patterns. wapo.st/3r9VUrL


Why is it always classical music? A modern larvae deserves modern music. Anyone willing to fund me to find out if Kanye improves sea scallop survival? link.springer.com/article/10.100…

The US election is tomorrow.  If you, like me, are tired of horse-race-style reporting, and need to zoom out, I wanna tell you a story. It’s about an ancient force influencing the election. And, as a bonus, it’ll give you an Easter egg to watch for as the returns come in. THREAD
