Cuttlefish can change color to fade into the background. It can do it amazingly fast.

This week’s sustainable tip, courtesy of Instagrammer @zerowastechica, is a fun one. For your next celebration, try this: confetti from fallen leaves. It’s biodegradable, easy to make, free, and looks darling.

i’m not sure my hands would hold up to doing this with the health problems i have, but it’s a super interesting idea!

I made this over the span of several days, so please forgive the weird little changes throughout the comic. Anyway, I’ve been real passionate about the environment/zero waste lately, so here’s a comic on how you can do your part! I hope it was at least a little helpful

there’s always something you can do to help! start small, if you need too!

Oh Christmas tree, oh Christmas tree…worms?

Christmas tree worms like these in Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary burrow into coral, but leave two tree-like crowns protruding. These crowns are used for respiration and to catch a nice holiday dinner, in the form of microscopic phytoplankton.

Worm wishes this holiday season from your National Marine Sanctuary System!

I think this is such a neat looking creature!

It is December! That means Christmas is coming. 

Although I am not religious, its the perfect excuse to post one of my favourite Christmas Tree Worm photos I have been keeping secret for a couple years.

Happy Holidays to and from every corner of the world, and I will be posting again in January!
