On April 30, 2026, a National Geographic-backed study determined that bottom trawling in European waters incurs an annual "net loss" of up to EUR 16 billion (USD 18.7 billion) once climate and ecological impacts are fully accounted for. Earlier the same day, new Blue Zone research helped validate longevity hotspots, exemplified by a Mediterranean island village where a senior man regularly walks to market for local produce. Also on April 30, National Geographic selected Yamagata, Japan, featuring sites like Ginzan Onsen and Risshaku-ji Temple, as one of its 25 best destinations for 2026. This follows the April 29, 2026, announcement by the National Geographic Society and Lindblad Expeditions of the 2026 Grosvenor Teacher Fellowship cohort. The program will send 36 educators on worldwide expeditions, marking 20 years of the fellowship's educational and professional learning opportunities.
