“We need to pay for the nature we use.” Succinct message. Genius delivery. Just what the doctor ordered.

A third of the way through the 'decisive decade' and we're a long way from where we need to be. Our current narrative isn't going to see us through this - it's time for a new (true) story of empowerment and possibility. My article in @ProSyn: project-syndicate.org/magazine/clima…

In fall of 2024 GEDI will be back at its original location and again collecting data, potentially through 2030, starting a new epoch of ecosystem structure observations. Congratulations to the entire GEDI team for an amazing first chapter and looking forward to the next! 🚀🌟

And… that's a wrap on 2022! Another year of mapping, coding, and studying #soils, #phenology, #biodiversity, #seeddispersal, #restoration, #resilience & more is over. Thanks for your interest in our #ecology lab. Looking forward to sharing more cool #science with you in 2023!

Decarbonising the world economy within the Paris climate range will require <5% of GDP in investment. Solving world food crisis will cost a few % of global GDP. At the same time we put 6-7 % of global GDP in fossil fuel subsidies. Unacceptable. Shows we can afford a bright future
