Main stream media never cover the real price of economic growth and so called progress
What humans are doing to other species
They are also doing to themselves - the only difference is time

This is what the world will look like over the next 100 years...if we fail to act. We have no time for business as usual.
No time to waste, no planet B. #ActOnClimate

Great new article from Susan Cook-Patton.
Revitalizing the planet is about rebuilding local biodiversity and human well-being across the globe, and there are wonderful climate benefits that result if we achieve these things.

PhDs can be challenging and public discourse tends to focus on the negatives.
To bring back some balance and positive momentum, this group of students sought to highlight the positive elements of the PhD experience. #AcademicChatter #PhDChat elifesciences.org/articles/8…

Various sources have confirmed that around 22 rhinos have been poached in South Africa in the last 48 – 36 hours, and while the run up to Christmas has historically been a time of year when poachings spike, this recent spate is deeply concerning. (1/4)
