On this date in 1990, President George H.W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) into law. The ADA was the world's FIRST comprehensive civil rights law for people with disabilities. Are you a geoscientist with a disability? You can connect with the IAGD, a 501c3 non-profit dedicated to improving access and inclusion for people with disabilities in the geosciences here: theiagd.org/
Check out the field trip they are leading after GSA Connects 2024! (Field Trip 419) Hazards and Hilltops: The San Andreas Fault and Mount San Jacinto IAGD Accessible Field Trip on Thursday, 26 September: tinyurl.com/b9drm8ks

Happy #EarthScienceWeek!
It's Thursday, and #GeoscienceForEveryone day! AVO scientists love to talk, teach, and learn with students and kids all over Alaska. If you don't have a volcano in your backyard, we'll bring one!

Combining #EarthScienceWeek, #GeoScienceForEveryone & #TBT... did you know that US agencies used to collect earthquake felt reports using...postcards! Mostly from postmasters. Today's online Did You Feel It? system casts a wider, more inclusive net: ow.ly/qHqT50L7y2G
