Field Builders make the fields that make the future. More people should consider the role.
We’re backing at least 50 Field Builders to launch grant programs in emerging scientific fields. Each Field Builder will award $70,000 to researchers they recruit and receive a $5,000 honorarium for leading the work.
Applications for the Field Building Accelerator are open now through December 15, 2026: fieldbuilding.org/

I have written a Letter to the Editor in ET&C. My message is simple: let's consider submitting our best manuscripts to journals owned by societies we care about. It is essentially a reflection of my appreciation (or love) for SETAC. Hope you like it

Another ANOVA/model tip in #R, be careful with using numbers to describe grouping factors (e.g., labeling sites as 1, 2, 3). If R sees numeric/integer data, it will treat it as a continuous covariate (ANCOVA), even if what you wanted was a comparison of groups. 🧵

As one legacy of Covid-19 leaves people more likely to use sanitizing and disinfecting products, our @IISD_ELA expert @pitrod explores what this means for our river and lakes in @Newsweek.

We now use more cleaning products than ever—and it's easy to see why.
But what is this doing to the health of our water supplies?
