Lotteries used as a tiebreaker for #academic #research #funding? I love this idea! This would automatically increase diversity in funded research, reduce bias and assessor workload. Are there any downsides?

I’ve just had a holiday, and unlike many my dream holiday is being at home. One of my greatest pleasures is to work ON my home, not just in the DIY sense but on ‘home-making’, making it an increasingly pleasant place to be. To me this is also a deeply political issue. /1

I've just discovered this great interactive infographic unpacking all the drivers and aspects of #globalchange. A great teaching resource, or just to browse yourself. Check it out:

Super graphic, important analysis by @ICCS_updates Mike Clark & colleagues. Shame about the #cheese score, though pizza just about passes muster.

Great to see this paper out. This perspective covers an interesting and important issue, and was ably led by @j_r_rhodes.

Sea otter mothers give their pups almost constant attention, carrying it on her belly away from the cold water, grooming its fur, and letting the pup nurse or sleep.

How much #biodiversity is being saved from avoiding impacts? This is not an easy question to answer, but we attempt to make start in our new paper doi.org/10.1002/fee.2496

Loved this article in the @GuardianAus, and in particular this plot of actual and projected emissions by country or region. You can instantly see where a country's climate pledge seems feasible.

A lack of long-term governance regarding #biodiversity no-net-loss policies risks failure of objectives & could distract from much needed transformative change. Read more in this insightful Perspective from Florence Damiens, Anna Backstrom & @ascelin @RMIT cell.com/one-earth/fulltext/…

Thanks for the nice commentary on our #offset paper @sophusticated. It's seems the current political climate means we're a long way from offsets resulting in transformational charge. I don't see that changing any time soon, but here's hoping for unexpectedly large charges soon.

Wanna quickly discuss this stand-out new offsetting paper by Florence Damiens, @Ascelin @LibbyJPorter - in my view one of the most important offset papers ever written. nature.com/articles/s41893-0…
