#Phycophiles, gather 'round for exciting news! #NEAS2021 will be a virtual celebration of #phycology on April 10, 2021 We'll have pre-recorded "primetime" talks, asynchronous material, awards & more! Primetime will feature students (of course)! More on deadlines & details soon!

Just started reading this and want to encourage all of you to as well! Informative and energizing, @CFigueres and @tomcarnac lay out a clear call to action and define what that action looks like to create a better future for all of us. #GlobalOptimism #TheFutureWeChoose

Today we celebrate the work of @Antarcticmoss, who researches how Antarctic plants respond to climate change, and supports #WomeninSTEMM to be leaders as part of @HomewardBound16. Read her piece on civil disobedience & the climate change conversation. bit.ly/38tjjtq

Doing our best is no longer enough. We must all now do what is necessary. @GlobalOptimism #ClimateActionNow @nature #WEF20 nature.com/articles/d4158…

Watch this interview with ecologist @A_Lal, astronomer Dr Mita Brierley and academic medical practitioner @PPrathivadi, featured recently on the Indian news website @TheQuint. #takeyourplace bit.ly/2G5IyFU

The 2019 drop was driven by a nearly 10 percent fall in #emissions from the power sector, the biggest decline in decades. #Coal generation fell by 18 percent last year, the largest annual decline on record. @insideclimate #ClimateActionNow @GlobalOptimism insideclimatenews.org/news/07012020/…

Hadn’t seen Patrick Owen, my and @NormWickett’s former @uconneeb officemate (TLS 386), since 2005. Then I went to the #SICB2020 poster session. #reunion

It’s happening in #SouthKorea. A cycle path covered with solar panels that feed the lights of the road as well as charging stations @GlobalOptimism #ClimateActionNow #Innovation #SmartCities #Renewables #solar #solarenergy #tech #technology

“Nature won’t care if we are around or not...if we want to save where we live, we need to do something about it." @karilydersen1 travelled to Antarctica with 100 STEMM women who are stepping up to lead us into an uncertain future. #takeyourplace #TEAMHB4 bit.ly/2sKi3m1

.@HomewardBound16 #TeamHB4 participants have already returned from Antarctica ❄️, where they lived great experiences that deserve to be told Don't miss this very special travel journal, written by them 👉 acciona.com/homeward-bound… 📸 P. Branderman / W. Rogan

De lo positivo en una Cumbre de Clima (de gobiernos) es el espacio para la #ciencia y #activismo en los pasillos y eventos. Aquí las ticas @MonicaArayaTica y @melania_guerra 🇨🇷con expertas de 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇧🇷 🇪🇸 (con bebé!) 🇨🇱 y 🇲🇽 Hermoso y vital apoyarnos. Gracias @HomewardBound16!

Humbled to be amongst one of the women highlighted in the special climate issue of Acciona magazine! #TakeYourPlace #WomenInSTEMM #LeadershipMatters

Electric trucks charged on any power grid in the United States are better for the climate than any diesel truck, according to an analysis released by the Union of Concerned Scientists @UCSUSA. #EV ow.ly/QQd550xyCSz

Welcome back, #TeamHB4! Brilliant women from around the world have just returned from the 4th @HomewardBound16 leadership program, the largest all-female voyage to Antarctica. Let's join them and end gender discrimination in STEMM. homewardboundprojects.com.au #takeyourplace

@kirstenmmuller Welcome back! Can’t wait to hear about your experience!

On 4 December at #COP25, we'll be presenting #ClimateAction success stories and pathways to #ClimateNeutrality by mid-century, summed up in two key reports we compiled together with experts and civil society groups. Be inspired! >> bit.ly/37BoIP8

@esargent184 Love this approach to self-assessment.

End of the semester review. Today students self assessed their 10 weakest learning objectives for the course. I will write a practice exam for later this week based on their weakest areas. 1Q per 10 ticks. Anything under 10 ticks, I refer back to previous assignments/office hours

Surprising alignment between labor unions and corporations? Not so! Addressing climate change is beneficial to everyone. Check out this impressive list of leaders who recognize that. #ClimateEmergency #ClimateCrisis #COP25 #TimeForAction #ClimateAction

Leadership.

#Antarctica is one of these places that once you visit a piece of your soul remains there forever. #HappyAntarcticaDay to all the people around 🌍 that like me will forever *belong* to the #peace & #science continent, and will fight for it. #ScienceDiplomacy @HomewardBound16
