Oops, what went wrong with the reunification? (Not that map of Bavaria shows more heterogeneity). It's not my field of reaserch, but to me the map seems to indicate (inter alia) larger scale drivers of societal homogenization. Curious to hear scientists' opinions on this.

Following the abolition of good practice standards, the only logical next step should be to cancel standards altogether. This will surely fix the poor performance of the CAP? Next, we should cancel traffic regulations to improve safety, and water quality regulation to secure people's health.

Not that this would come as a surprise, but worth reading who are the beneficiaries and losers from the EU's deregulation of NGT. friendsoftheearth.eu/press-releas...

Copa*cogeca worked hard to dismantle the CAP from the benefits it can bring for farmers, society and the environment, and now tries to defend it from being scrapped. Go figure.

Open letter by scientists: 31 organizations and 2262 individual signatories call EU policymakers to Revive the Green Deal. The planetary crisis risks millions of people in the EU, billions globally. Weakening a key instrument to tackle the crisis is unwise! Read here: zenodo.org/records/1486...

Scientists are trying to be a-political, but anti-science is very political, as is being silent. But speaking up is hard too! I'd be curious to hear how sustainability-, conservation- & climate-scientists speak up, or communicate science in view of the risks of current politics & societal shifts.

So frustrating to see how the things are most critical for our future - climate, biodiversity, our water & health - are pushed aside in current politics/elections. Instead we hear of immigration without causes, or economic growth without resources. Feels like watching TV while the house is on fire.

A visit to the botanical gardens on a sunny winter day helps refreshing the eye and the soul. But wait - what are all these tufts of messy dead plants?! Obviously, no gardener here would ever mow all the surface in one go. How can this logic be applied for managing grasslands and gardens?

The strawberries are finally there! Tip of the month: don't touch them, and tell others to do so as well. Be it organic or not, our consumption - pushed forward by aggressive marketing - drives rapid land use changes and environmental pressures, especially in S. Spain. Let's wait for summer.

Making starter packs seems to be the hot thing and I noticed that we don't have one for conservation scientists (🧪), so here we go go.bsky.app/3CZDnb2 So if you are an active researcher and would like to be added, reply here. Please no journalists or NGOs, there are other starting lists for that ;)

Thank you @nature.com for covering our research on women again today! Study of biologists quitting academia reveals hidden gender gaps. Even in fields in which women are well represented, they are up to 40% more likely than men to leave research within 20 years. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
