I agreee! Closing the Childhood Development Center (on-campus childcare for faculty) is short-sighted and will have cascading negative impacts across campus for faculty. The university made the wrong decision but it can still make the right one. @AmericanU, reverse the decision!

Final call! Applications are due tomorrow, May 20th, 2023.

Get a glimpse into the future as you play your way through “Survive The Century,” a choose-your-own-adventure book co-authored by SIS professor @EnviroSimon which focuses on making climate decisions for a better world. youtube.com/watch?v=nhwL2L…

@KaafPay @profptj @peter_lavoy @Aparna_Pande @tanvi_madan @MilanV @mariamdurrani @YarwoodJanette So, I'm a Grouchy Potty Mouth. That's actually scarily accurate.

@sehric @climateMorrow @CarbonRemovalAU If the goal is to fill @climateMorrow's shoes, then yes, size 27 sounds about right.

Listen to @EnviroSimon explain the nexus between food and climate change #COP27 #WeCanDoIt #WeDontHaveTime

We built an editable database of 100+ carbon removal knowledge gaps. Our hope is that by making these gaps more visible, and by making it easier for experts without CDR-specific knowledge to figure out where to plug in, we might be able to fill them faster. 🚀

I say this as someone who's famously skeptical about science communication: projects like Survive the Century from @beckbessinger, @EnviroSimon, and @christrisos matter here because they give the public tools to talk in the same terms about better futures survivethecentury.net

The new Inflation Reduction Act aims to reduce U.S. emission by about 40%. @wil_burns, Professor of Research in Environmental Policy at @AU_SIS explains how carbon capture will play a big role in reaching this ambitious goal in his @ConversationUS article. bit.ly/3BoQWgY
