Ford Field has an excess of COVID-19 vaccines right now, state health officials just told us. They are urging anyone 16 and older who wants a shot to go to the stadium in Detroit now until 6 p.m. No eligibility rules apply to these. So if you're looking, go now!

@KristenShamus Will they stop at 6pm? It’ll take me 40min to drive there ...

@callivdw and I evaluate the degree to which life cycle assessment incorporates ecosystem services. Answer: Limited. Focus on carbon balance accounting. Great opportunities via land-use change. Need to blend ecological modeling & GIScience with LCA. authors.elsevier.com/a/1ceFs3HVLKkr…

Where does your guacamole come from? In this paper, we reveal that ~90% of Hass Avocados sold in the U.S. come from one region in Mexico. Remote sensing documents deforestation and biodiversity impacts due to Avocado plantations. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

@em_chan Would love to learn from an expert on how sustainability is approached in the fashion industry. Any chance of working with you to conduct a 10min interview for a course I'm helping design at University of Michigan?

Educate yourself #BlackLivesMatter Thank you @Autumn_Bry for creating this resource!

@BarbMcQuade I would love to go see these guys IRL — could you DM me an address?

Beautiful day for a car wash. #SkeltonCrew.

I survived coronavirus. Spent nearly 2 weeks indoors + in quarantine as my body fought it off. Yesterday, I took my first steps downstairs, headed straight to my garden + took a deep breath Wasn’t gonna share this online but I’ve been encouraged to share hope & good news 1/18

Let me get this straight. Joe Exotic mistreats tigers and gets THREE hunky husbands. I am frankly LOVELY to a bunch of cephalopods and I have ZERO hunky husbands?? I do not understand this math.

The coronavirus crisis teaches two critical climate lessons: 1 We can afford a Green New Deal. 2 When we agree as a society that something is an emergency, we come together to address it. The only thing blocking climate action is our collective choice not to act.

What if the planet’s health was also taken seriously?

I was almost done interviewing Weinstein’s defense attorney when I decided to ask one more question: had she ever been sexually assaulted? “I have not,” she said at 23:50. “Because I would never put myself in that position.” Then things really heated up. nyti.ms/39hghZy

This Parnas interview is incredibly damning. But, then, it’s *all* been incredibly damning. The problem here is not a lack of damning testimony, some of it from President Trump himself. It’s a lack of Republican senators who care about the country enough to do the right thing.

@callivdw @ElizKolbert hey i think the NYT heard your call for recs on twitter? check this piece! nytimes.com/2020/01/10/opi…

Just read DONT WAIT in the latest issue of the New Yorker. Powerful words @ElizKolbert. “The world is in danger, and we need to act immediately to survive.” Recommendations for ways for individuals to work as change agents?

@RealSimple I typically enjoy reading the “New Uses for Old Things” section but was disappointed this issue. Let’s promote actions that reduce waste.

@runmarycain @lindsaycrouse @nytimes Thank you for sharing your story ❤️

This was a long time coming. For years, I felt broken and alone- I waited, yet no one reach out to help. Now I am ok. But the system isn’t. And I can’t stay silent. This was hard to share, so thanks @lindsaycrouse & @nytimes for all your support. ❤️ nytimes.com/2019/11/07/opi…
