@neeratanden I’m so very sorry. Amy and I send our best wishes. Am sure you were super careful. Hope others take this as a lesson.

I have the coronavirus. I’ve been sick for a week, and really, really fatigued, with muscle pain. So far, thankfully, no fever and my oxygen levels are fine. But I was super careful, wore masks, carried hand sanitizer. Haven’t really socialized with friends.

Just out, new Yale U. Press book with a chapter on "@climatechange, food, and @biodiversity" by @OlaWestengen and me. @croptrust @cgiar @fao @USAID @SenWhitehouse @amyklobuchar @LeaderSchumer @senatortester yalebooks.yale.edu/book/978030020…

Thanks to Sergi. And thanks to GoPro for the documentary film.

New award winning bourbon made w/ southern heritage @cropdiversity rescued by @AnsonMills. Thanks! It's a great story w/ a happy ending this New Year's Eve. gardenandgun.com/articles/high-… Shows importance of conservation and use of diversity @CropTrust, especially corn @CIMMYT

#Farmers in the U.S. get less than 15% of every #food dollar spent. Not even this much at #Thanksgiving. And they have to contend w/ tariffs, #ClimateChange and government denial @realDonaldTrump. They need science and supporters the world over.nfu.org/2018/11/21/far…

Preparing for the #foodsecurity challenges of tomorrow requires that we conserve the #biodiversity we have today. With gratitude to @CropTrust for its tireless commitment to conserving crop diversity. #FunderGratitude

Players balance their need to harvest crops against their collective goal to store & preserve seeds in the #SeedVault. Players who harvest too much endanger seed diversity & threaten #Catan with a collapse of the food supply 👏👏👏Well done @CropTrust @catan!

2018 is shaping up to be the 5th warmest year on record behind 2016 (the warmest), 2015, 2017, & 2014, per NOAA ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/20… Should have been part of the political discussion in U.S. election year. Wasn't. Big impacts on farmers @CropTrust @FAOclimate @cgiarclimate_EA

401 consecutive months of "above average" global temperatures. I think I detect a trend, maybe even change! Coincidence? Nope. AG adaptation @cgiar needed. And diversity! @croptrust @GlobalSeedVault ncdc.noaa.gov/sotc/global/20…

Being a Super Hero, I shouldn't "out" myself like this, but what the hell. The drawing brings a smile to my face. Thanks! twitter.com/JanPaul123/sta…

@FoodForever2020 #eatforum, I celebrate a grassroots effort to save apple diversity. 3500+ varieties. temperateorchardconservancy.org

Follow @FoodForever2020 and learn more about this initiative, & the importance of #SDG 2.5. #interdependence

Diversity + selection by farmers necessary for adaptation of many crops to climate change for food security. #FoodForever @eatforum

Preserving #agrobiodiversity is key 2 ecosystem resilience, any strategy must embrace diversity & redundancy 2 ensure #foodforever #EATforum

Oceans could contain more plastics than fish in future per Crown Princess Victoria of Sweden #eatforum. Sobering thought.
