'Apathy is one of our biggest problems': Ocean photographer Shawn Heinrichs wants to save the seas The images of sea life captured by photographer and cinematographer Shawn Heinrichs have a dual message: we should revere these majestic, yet fragile creatures, but we should also fear the prospect of their extinction. Heinrichs, 50, grew up by the South African coast: "As a kid I spent every weekend around the oceans -- it has more abundance than you could ever imagine," he recalled. His protective instinct for life beneath the waves inspired a career investigating its mistreatment by humans and campaigning for change. By locating elusive whale sharks in Mexico's Isla Mujeres, he heavily influenced local fishermen's career transition to ecotourism. Heinrichs then documented the widespread hunting of manta rays for their gills, which are used in traditional Chinese medicine, and helped pave the way for mantas' official protection by the UN Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species. Some of his pictures showcase magnificence, while others are intentionally hard to look at. But Heinrichs' imagery exists to inspire action. Today he devotes much of his focus to SeaLegacy, an organization which seeks to channel a sense of public injustice at endless fishing and to direct it towards environmental activism.

US gun control: Cross-party group of senators agrees limited safety measures "Today, we are announcing a common sense, bipartisan proposal to protect America's children, keep our schools safe, and reduce the threat of violence across our country," the Senate group said in a statement. "Families are scared, and it is our duty to come together and get something done that will help restore their sense of safety and security in their communities." Republicans made up half of the 20 senators who proposed the new measures. The senators also called for increased investment in mental health services and school safety resources, as well as including domestic violence convictions and restraining orders in the national background check database for people buying firearms. สนับสนุนโดย : สล็อตวอเลท

Ukraine responds to Biden's remarks on Zelensky before invasion Now, Zelensky's spokesman has responded to the remarks, saying that Zelensky asked for preventive sanctions against Russia prior to the large-scale invasion but Ukraine's partners "did not want to hear". Spokesman Sergei Nikiforov said that at that time, Zelensky had three or four telephone conversations with Joe Biden and the leaders exchanged views and assessments of the situation in detail."Therefore, the phrase 'did not want to hear' probably needs clarification," he told Ukrainian news outlet LIGA.net. Another adviser, Mykhailo Podolia, said Ukraine understood that Russia was planning an invasion and was preparing for it - the question was on the scale of the attack. สนับสนุนโดย : สล็อตวอเลท
