🌍 On #WorldEnvironmentDay, we’re spotlighting the forgotten polymers: PLFs. Found in shampoos, paints & detergents, 36m tonnes are made yearly - almost none reused. It’s time to act. 🔗https://buff.ly/1pPOAhW #SustainablePLFs2040 #BeatPlasticPollution #ChemSky

Happy #pride month! We believe that chemistry is for everyone. In the face of opposition that threatens the progress we've made, it's never been more important for us to promote equality of opportunities and make chemistry as open, inclusive and diverse as it should be: buff.ly/1dShs0l #ChemSky

The boy has finished the Junior Illustrated Maths Dictionary so now I've ordered the next one, a book called Simply Maths and Kirby Manga Mania 3. His ability to absorb information - if it interests him - is amazing.

Some people say decolonisation does not apply in STEM. This is what it looks like in a review article - exploring origins of our research that date back to the ancient world, and tracing societal development in oft-overlooked areas through to the cutting-edge of science. pubs.rsc.org/en/content/a...

Woke up with a not-quite-a-migraine, took migraleve so it doesn't hurt now but feel quite sleepy. Got to work to discover there are no cheese scones today - @rsc.org colleagues will understand the devastation caused to my day. Thank goodness for coffee!

Can you help in my hunt for new research posters? I run a workshop on academic poster design & presentations and I’m looking for new examples to share. If you have a poster I can use please get in touch. Good, bad and ugly examples are all more than welcome.

Tales from a single parent: getting a call from school saying child feels unwell when you're just finishing a meeting in London - we do not live in London. That was a very stressful trip home, apparently willing a train to go faster doesn't work. Child is absolutely fine this morning.

Interesting paper here in @chemicalscience.rsc.org. I was a first generation UG, as defined here. I spectacularly failed my first year & almost got kicked out. Recognise the points about failing to adapt. After 37 years, this can still influence my outlook, not always productively. #chemsky

1/12 Tony Blair Institute have released a report which is getting a lot of coverage in UK today It says the drive for net zero emissions is flawed and some media outlets have gone to town However it’s a bit odd By odd, I mean there’s a lot of bollocks in it and shouldn't be taken seriously 🧵🧵

The UK Supreme Court did not hear from any trans or gender diverse people before ruling on the definition of a woman in the Equality Act. Without this crucial consultation, there’s a higher risk of introducing policies and procedures that not only discriminate but just don’t make sense.
