As scientists, we are increasingly being asked to tell the public the truth about the crises we face in simple and direct terms. The truth is that we are shocked by the ferocity of the extreme weather events in 2023. We are afraid of the uncharted territory that we have now entered. This summed up our experience of 2023, as it happened. It's been an honor to be part of this crucial research, led by the great @WilliamJRipple and Christopher Wolf. And with co-authors Jillian Gregg, @jrockstrom, @NewsomeTM, Beverly Law, Luiz Marques, Tim Lenton, Chi Xu, (the late😔) @SaleemulHuqand and @Sir_David_King The 2023 state of the climate report: Entering uncharted territory: academic.oup.com/bioscience/…

Let’s be clear. The terrible shooting in Colorado Springs this weekend is a direct result of the hateful and violent rhetoric that has been allowed to grow in this country. We must stand united with the LGBTQ community and speak out against bigotry everywhere we find it.

Every year I read a lot of grad school applications from accomplished people that don't give me the info I'm looking for. It feels like a major hidden curriculum thing. So here's (my opinion on) how to write a great Statement of Purpose/Research for a PhD program. 🧵 1/

“Pregnancy is more than thirty times more dangerous than abortion. One study estimates that a nationwide ban would lead to a twenty-one-per-cent rise in pregnancy-related deaths….They will die of infections, of preëclampsia, of hemorrhage….” newyorker.com/magazine/2022/…
