“We used to say 1.5C to stay alive. Now we know 1.5C we might survive. We are at 1.1C and lives have been lost. Just happens most of those are lives of people of colour. Is that why world powers are ignoring it?” Kumi Naidoo #cop26

I don't know who needs to hear this, but "You should apply, they're desperately looking for women" is not the motivational message you think it is

So you're going to do a PhD! Yay! Here's my best advice: 1) Don't work nights/weekends unless you have a hard deadline. Work 40hrs, no more. My most cherished grad school experiences were hanging out with my friends. Do not waste your youth providing unpaid labor. Don't do it!!

Love seeing home birds out in Vancouver ❤️

This is Neekas, Heiltsuk Territory. All of these salmon went into the creek, the creek dried up b/c of no rain so far this fall, and just died, and this is just one reach! Global warming is killing everything. This is such a sad scene. Video credit, Sarah Mund

Phalaropes, like Zoolander, are "ambiturners" - aka they have one direction that they prefer to spin in. Some go clockwise, some anticlockwise, but they're generally consistent. They're also very, very good-looking! #PhalaropePhriday #BirdTwitter #FunFactFriday
