Soils are stressed out — from drought, heat, antibiotics, fungicides, and more. Cary's @Jane_M_Lucas is untangling how those stressors interact. Her findings will help farmers maintain healthy soils and maximize soil carbon storage. Read more: caryinstitute.org/news-insights/…

Officials are reporting 5 confirmed cases of malaria in Florida and Texas — the first local transmission in 2 decades. @slladeau explains that "everything about the mosquito physiology speeds up as temperatures warm," @DrJBrownstein adding symptoms patients should look out for.

2) It’s actually worse than that chart made out, because at most points on the income distribution, Americans earn much more than Brits. If we plot the same data by actual income instead of percentile, the US deficit is vast. 5 fewer years even among the comfortably-off.

With tremendous sadness we share that Gary Lovett died on Dec. 17 while skiing in the #Catskills. Gary was an exceptional ecologist + dear colleague; his sudden loss is felt by all who knew his probing mind, kind nature, & commitment to protecting forests. caryinstitute.org/news-insights/…

We coded 122 formal city plans in 20 cities in the US to ask: How is US urban planning for green infrastructure addressing equity? Results out today sciencedirect.com/science/articl… Upshot, transformation in planning is needed! Led by @zjgrabowski w @UrbanSteward @caryinstitute @USL_NYC

View, share, & vote! Sarah Rothman’s 3-minute research video is in the @u21news 3MT People’s Choice global competition. Her #EnvironmentalJustice research builds on @slladeau & @PLeisnham's mosquito work in #Baltimore & #DC. @BESlter bit.ly/3C0zEY1

Listen it is simple: if you wanted to have rights you should have been a gun.

Safe abortion care is essential to protect the health of women & girls everywhere. Removing access to #abortion care will put more women & girls at risk of illegal abortions and the consequent safety issues that would bring bit.ly/3kA2Z1P

So just to recap… everyone admits a coup attempt was made on US government but it may not be illegal (enough), States can regulate women’s access to health care but are not allowed to regulate men’s access to guns. I feel I’ll-equipped.

Whether #Omicron emerged from a person or wild animal remains a question. Speaking to The @NewYorker, Cary's @bahanbug explains that due to #COVID's diverse host range, a new #variant emerging from an animal infected by a person presents a very real risk. newyorker.com/science/elemen…
