No action is too small. Everyone has a role.

Now, a massive attack on our last conserved natural spaces; for what? why?

In a parallel world, we could do this everywhere

From Nichols Kristoff on NYT www.aeinstein.org/198-methods-...

Every species. Every ecosystem. From pollution to climate change, the fingerprints of humanity are everywhere, especially in vanishing biodiversity. 🌱 A massive new study uncovers the full extent of our impact. Read more:

American Geophysical Union (AGU), and American Meteorological Society (AMS) will produce a catalog of of climate observations, projections, impacts, risks, and solutions to continue work of the National Climate Assessment (NCA) cancelled by the idiot despot. www.yahoo.com/news/scienti...

A bit of good news: “… growing leafy greens & berries, under solar panels. shade reduces evaporation, growers water less. wetted landscape cools panels, improves efficiency. livestock grazing under panels fertilize soil for plant growth & flowers for native pollinators …“ grist.org/climate-ener...

Grateful on earth day for our lives on our fragile blue planet

People, we can do better than this. Please.

Trump is now the most contaminating source of environmental toxic policies in the sad short history of the Anthropocene www.science.org/content/arti...

Besides charismatic leaders to ‘win’ back the government, progressives need to self-organize a brain trust to develop a solid reconstitution plan to repair Trumps epic damage.

A very bad idea., Maybe OK in 5 years after careful planning with stable models. AI today is still immature, volatile and dangerous, humans are easily fooled and lack meta-skills to sort through AI slop. www.techpolicy.press/doge-plan-to...

No one can excuse this heartless cruelty to vulnerable populations

Trump’s attacks on Science christinapagel.substack.com/p/censor-pur...

“Birds are breathing in high levels of airborne microplastics into their lungs—and, likely, so are we, with unclear effects on our health.“ Ending the age of plastic is an EMERGENCY. The world needs an ambitious Global #PlasticsTreaty that drastically cuts plastic production.

A Progressive Project 2029 proposed by Joseph Heath is essential to repair the restore sanity and fairness in our government. Who will lead? How to fund? How to organize and recruit teams to get started?

US President Donald Trump is taking a wrecking ball to science and to international institutions. The global research community must take a stand against these attacks. https://go.nature.com/4kd1vIu
