How Nonprofits Use Social Media to Engage with their Communities - NPQ - Nonprofit Quar... - 0 views

  • most (74%) use social networks as a megaphone, announcing events and activities and sharing organization-centric info.
  • Nonprofits overwhelmingly (88%) said their most important communication tools were email and their websites, even though fully 97% of them are on Facebook. This may have to do with the fact that in their mind, the pinnacle of engagement is a donation (47%).

The Power Of Poop: A Whale Story : Krulwich Wonders... : NPR - 0 views

  • with an enormous population of plankton, a few whales and a few krill, and slowly but surely the whales will multiply, pooping more iron into the ocean to produce more krill, which produces more whales, then more krill, then more whales, then more krill, until you could support an ocean teeming with whales
  • He found that on average whale faeces had 10 million times as much iron as Antarctic seawater
  • ." Basically, that's iron concentrate. And strategically emitted — which would have to be up near the ocean surface, where the sun shines — that extra iron would create blooms of phytoplankton, which would then be eaten by krill, leading to a boost in the krill population, leading to ... yes ... bigger whale dinners!
  • ...3 more annotations...
  • baleen whales prowl the seas consuming immense quantities of krill, they might, during digestion, concentrate their food into iron-rich deposits which, when the time comes, they eject back into the ocean.
  • Krill need iron to grow and multiply.
  • there's not enough iron in the southern ocean water to support that many krill. So either the whales had smaller meals a century ago, or somehow the oceans got an extra kick or boost of iron to create more krill.

Impact of whaling on the ocean carbon cycle Journalist's Resource: Research for Reporti... - 0 views

  • When whales and other large animals flourish in the ocean, they carry a substantial amount of carbon to the sea floor upon dying. Whales and other large marine vertebrates could effectively function as carbon credits
  • About 160,000 tons of carbon per year could be removed from the atmosphere if whale populations were restored to pre-industrial levels. This amount is equivalent to adding 843 hectares of forest
  • Restoring the whale populations compares favorably with unproven schemes such as iron fertilization in removing carbon from the ocean surface
