Hey savvy friends,
This week we’re getting stuck in Arctic ice, driving Teslas of the sea, planting beloved seagrass and so much more…

In 1847, Sir John Franklin and a crew of 128 men disappeared while searching for the fabled Northwest Passage. A National Geographic team sought to find evidence of their fate—but the Arctic doesn’t give up its secrets easily.

Baltic Sea, citizen divers restore seagrass to fight climate change 🐢
Just off the coast of Kiel in northern Germany, scuba divers use hand trowels to dig up seagrass shoots (complete with roots) from a dense underwater meadow, delicately shaking off the sediment before placing them in yellow bags.
Back on land, they store the shoots in large cooling boxes, before heading out the next day to a barren area further north to replant them in circles.
They hope this tough work, part of a new project that trains local citizens to restore seagrass meadows in the Baltic Sea, can help tackle climate change.
