Moderating an @SDAMPP_org webinar on concept inventories lead by @isoCetnar for #medphys #education on this #IDMP2022! Couldn’t be more proud of the hard work done by her group!

Problem is not the term "natural gas", but near mystic reverence of all things "natural". "Natural" is not necessarily better. A disaster that is a "natural" disaster is not preferable. Malnutrition, Smallpox, Polio, Cancer, Getting eaten by a Lion- these are also "natural".
Can we stop putting “natural” in front of “gas”? One of the most successful greenwashing efforts of all time. We don’t call it “natural wind” or “natural sun” - or “natural coal”, for that matter. The nature of gas is that it’s a fossil fuel whose combustion causes climate change

As a conferencing mom, it was definitely a logistical exercise to plan pumping and return of milk safely 😵‍💫 Thanks to @aapmHQ for lactation rooms (I had the luxury of a close hotel room!) I’d love to hear tips and tricks from conferencing moms! #AAPM2022 @MilkStork
