ENB Pub Note: I had the pleasure of interviewing Craig Rucker this week, and below is an interview with Craig on Fox News.  Our podcast will be airing next week, and I learned a lot from our interview. Craig and Patric Moore, Co-Founder of Greenpeace know each other and have a great relationship. I am also excited to work with them on future interviews including the upcoming COP28. We will be continuing to address ESG, Investing, and Energy hypocrisy issues as we see them.

30-foot humpback whale was found dead on the shores of Fire Island on Friday morning — at least the 18th doomed humpback discovered on the East Coast so far this year.

The tragic majestic mammal was found belly-up on the eastern side of Smith Point County Park in Shirley, Long Island, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said.

The animal’s body has been collected for a necropsy, NOAA told Patch in a statement. The cause of death is unknown.

“Information gathered through this examination will include measurements and photographs, along with biological samples collected to learn more about the whale’s physiology and document any factors that may have contributed to the animal’s death,” a rep told the outlet.

The whale washed up on its back, with its striped underbelly showing on the beach.
