Monday feels. Or maybe election season feels. Or carbon emission feels. Or all of the above.

And if you missed it live you can now watch it at x2 speed while you do your dishes! Feedback and thoughts are very much welcome—and encouraged. How can we improve use of scientific information for risk reduction? Big thanks to @SZ4D1 @SZ4Grads youtube.com/watch?v=T7SkEtgE…

I am so sad I no longer live in Michigan. Amazing.
Personally lobbied for this sticker with my City Clerk. If there is ever a year to have an unhinged werewolf ripping its shirt off as the “I Voted” sticker…it’s 2024.

A group of us have been working to adapt our 2021 @EGU_NHESS paper (doi.org/10.5194/nhess-21-187…) into an open-access eLearning course. The initial version (feedback welcome!) is now live... open.edu/openlearncreate/cou… It aims to help natural hazard scientists better contribute to DRR.
🌍 GfGD has contributed to a new open-access e-learning course designed to enhance natural hazard scientists' engagement in disaster risk reduction (DRR). 🧵1/5

Terrifying when you see your home region called out in the national news for being unprepared. It’s true though, and will continue to be unless we invest in safety infrastructure. ⁦⁦Comments from colleagues @geosmx⁩ & Corina Allen cnn.com/washington-earthquak…

Not all guided tours consider the true risk of your adventure. Fuego volcano, Guatemala is a case in point. [Incl. commentary from Matt Watson, Ailsa Naismith, Roberto Mérida Boogher.] bbc.com/news/articles/cydd91…

This is Wookie telling me I still have some work to do on my seminar outline for this Thursday. Cats are the harshest critics.

Okay I’m finally finding a moment to listen to this and I admittedly was nervous—the whole hearing ourselves talk thing—but I just legit squealed because it’s so fun to hear @smitchell_sci and @DrWendyRocks and I can’t help but love being a part of it.
🚨 It's time for our first double guest episode! And it's a zinger, featuring @DrWendyRocks and @EatTheCrust talking all about the importance of training scientists in science communication and helping the public perceive natural hazards and risk. Listen: podcasters.spotify.com/pod/s…

Lovely summary of the backstory on our paper on women & evacuation at Fuego volcano, Guatemala. The story behind the story! ❤️ 🌋
I wrote a mini blog post about a recent study by @EatTheCrust (lead author) and I on women's perspectives of evacuation at Fuego volcano, Guatemala. It's a wee summary of the paper and our motivations for writing it. Check it out! reasoningwithvolcanoes.com/2…

For those looking to understand the (geophysical) context of the Morocco earthquake:
The recent M6.8 earthquake in Morocco is the largest ever recorded in the country - and news reports indicate that it was deadly. What happened? Why? What can we expect next? Read more in our blog, Earthquake Insights. Find the link in my bio.
