Yeah, chlorine gas particles would be too small, I guess. At least the smoke would be blocked (if it travels that far)

Yikes! Stay safe, and grab a KN95 mask if you don't still have one in your purse!

taxing the rich to fund education and other services has a dual purpose - it strengthens those services and lessens the influence of the rich at the same time

Pregnancy and delivery are still dangerous to this day - I know two women who nearly very died delivering their first (and only) kid. Thank the gods for doctors, nurses, midwives, doulas, and all the rest

Same 😬 Also, neither of my kids would have survived birth, probably. They both had to stay in the NICU

Sounds like she hasn't changed her field-side encouragement since her kid was in 3yo peewee soccer

The lower third of panel four focuses on the rocky and sandy formation of the sea floor, covered in purple sea urchins. The text on the image reads sea urchins have big appetites, too, with kelp being one of their favorite go-to snacks! When sea otters keep urchin populations in check, they can prevent the towering underwater forests from vanishing.
A  long stalk of golden kelp covers the right side of the image against the illustrated blue and green hues of the ocean floor background. The text on the image reads thousands of fishes, birds, and other animals depend on healthy kelp forests for their survival. A healthy kelp forest may also help buffer coastlines from strong storms.
The final panel of the comic has the same diagram of sea otter, sea urchin, and kelp forest as the first slide. The text in the lower left corner of the image reads as a keystone species, sea otters help maintain the balance between urchins and kelp through this trophic cascade.
