Kristof is optimistic about the growing awareness of cruelty to farm animals. But after 37 years as a vegetarian, I'm surprised that more people haven't reached the obvious conclusion that we should stop eating them, for the good of animals and the planet. tinyurl.com/ygebp2nn

@howserob @SecPompeo The Paris Agmt *is* weak, bottom-up, and voluntary. But it was a start. And it does NOT just give China a pass, because US also has leeway - and that is why leaving was a completely pointless act of malevolence.

Here @SecPompeo in criticizing Paris Agmt for being *ineffective* seems to admit that climate change is real. The answer to the problem he indicates is not to reject the Paris Agreement-it is to stop giving #China a pass.Carbon border adjustment. #GreenNewDeal.

I can't prove it, but I think Trump's tweets have contributed to my students' tendency to Randomly Capitalize Words.

Why women live longer than men.

Took me a minute to get this, but it's lol-funny... twitter.com/AcademicsSay/s…

More and more students write that things are "based off" other things. That makes no sense. We must hold the line. tinyurl.com/y8nl5enh

Apologies to my students for my lapse in neutrality. I hope it will be a temporary, one-thing thing. MAP /15
