STAND UP FOR SCIENCE – March 7, 2025. Washington DC and nationwide. Because science is for everyone.

We are working on launching an ALT DOGE website. It will soon feature a team page listing all of Elon’s staffers, our own wall of receipts (tracking the money he’s taking from America), and a section to help Americans keep tabs on the false claims on Doge’s website—which now exceed 52%.

Ukrainians should have their land. Palestinians should have their land. Folks who support Ukrainians but don’t support Palestinians embody racist settler-colonial ideals. #freepalestine

We just want to remind you: You’re not alone. We’re all in this together, and we’ll get through it together. We’ve seen so many people sharing their feelings of anxiety and stress—please take a moment for yourself. Your well-being matters. Sending you hugs—you are amazing, and we love you all! 💚

Someone generously shared this template of a handout they were inspired to create for their local community with me. Here's a canva link if you'd like to adapt it for your communities: www.canva.com/design/DAGgN...

Hey humanity, Where the fuck are you? #Genocide #freepalestine #palestine #gaza #Israel #boycottisrael #bds #GenocidalState #Children #SaveTheChildren #SaveOurChildren

Yep! That's why responsible pet ownership is important. It helps keep both cats and birds safer by keeping cats inside! Also generally more birds die from building or car collisions then wind turbines as well. #birds #cats #biodiversity #sustainability #pets

Cats kill 10,000 times as many birds as wind turbines do.

I wish people stood with #Palestine & the Palestinian people just as passionately as they stand with Ukraine. #FreePalestine

I feel as if we're capable of acknowledging that a one-day boycott is mostly symbolic without becoming contemptuous and dismissive of people finding a little meaning and comfort in such a symbol. The scorn seems petty.

I'd like to make a public apology post. I misspelled and meant I have baldiphobia. I'm scared of his single strand of hair.

"Peatlands are important carbon stores, important habitat for many different species, but what sets them apart is their ability to capture carbon from the atmosphere & store it for thousands of years" - Lorna Harris, Dir. of our Forests, Peatlands & Climate Change Program, speaking with CTV News 🧵🌎

On this day in 1919, Grand Canyon National Park was established by President Woodrow Wilson. We were fortunate to be able to call this place home for a small while and it still makes me say wow every time I see it. #grandcanyon #nationalparks #arizona #landscape #photography #sunset #nikon

Most global #conservation funds go to larger, charismatic animals, leaving critically important but less fashionable species, like amphibians and algae, deprived, a 25-year study has revealed. www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Some 1,000 NPS employees were fired, and hiring for seasonal positions was delayed. Here's what to know about the impacts already being felt at parks, and what it could mean for the busy season.

Not wolves, but the Red Wolf + Mexican gray wolf recovery programs could certainly be next... The head of FWS' black-footed ferret recovery program was fired earlier this month, along w/ 2 employees who worked at a captive breeding facility. Funding has been frozen too.

What is the purpose of wearing a beanie if it's not even going to cover your ears?

PSA: Please do not buy bunnies as gifts. They are A LOT of work. 🌱They have specific diets, and if they are not followed you will end up with vet bills out the ting tang. 🫡 They are cute but mostly NOT cuddly. They can become aggressive which is not not a fault just nature. 1/

Ok people. I’m drawing silhouettes this afternoon. If you have a paper coming up and you are in need of a #silhouette please let me know and I will have it ready today. As always I upload all my silhouettes to phylopic.org I also have tutorials on how to put a silhouette in a plot in R.

As monarch populations plummet, they need our help now more than ever. Check out this op-ed by Jonathan Evans, the Center's Environmental Health Legal Director. 🦋⬇️

Due to recent U.S. federal actions, SCBNA urges elected representatives, civil society organizations & the public to work with us immediately in defending science, scientists & nature. Read the full @scbnorthamerica.bsky.social statement here: tinyurl.com/2e9xwyx2 🌍 #conservation

We sent a notice of intent to sue the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for illegally expediting 700 pending permit to fill or destroy wetlands across the U.S. The permits have been fast-tracked under the guise of President Trump’s executive order declaring a national energy emergency: biodiv.us/4iaKHjw

El Capitan displays a massive American flag upside down—the traditional signal of distress or extreme emergency.

Dark skies reflect my sadness at the firings of all the humans that help keep the #GreatLakes as healthy as possible. Tonight I mourn the loss of the 14 @usfws.bsky.social employees that kept the invasive sea lamprey at bay. My fishery will be hurt. 😢😢🌊🌊

Promoting diversity is not a crime.

I urge cis allies to read through this thread. Even if you don't agree with this interpretation (that the sudden spike in interest is a bad sign that journalists are aware of more anti-trans actions coming that are not publicly known yet), understand how scared we are right now:

Hundreds of wolves are killed each year in Idaho, Montana and Wyoming. The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service predicts that rampant wolf killing under state laws could reduce the region's wolf population from an estimated 2,534 wolves to as few as 667. These wolves need protection. Take action. ⬇️

the only way forward for video games is self-published games made by properly-organised studios corporate ownership will fire all of you in the end.

What the actual fuck?! America, it’s time to rise. When tyranny becomes law, rebellion becomes duty!

Democratic leaders: I think it's abundantly clear at this point that simply going along to get along ain't gonna work. Trying to negotiate ain't gonna work. Being collegial ain't gonna work. What you're doing right now isn't working. Take your gloves off and punch back. Hard.
