The world is literally burning, and rather than doing anything to help, Donald Trump and his friend, the richest man in the world, are spreading lies to gain more power. The message is clear, not only do they want to help, they want to mock America's corpse.

This sounds so cool!! I just signed up, looking forward to it.
Would appreciate a RT from the scientists for this one! We have 665 scientists in the spring database and I want to get us to about 1000 before we set the teachers loose on the database for January matches.
Scientists!

We are trying to get 1000 of us into the volunteer database by Jan 1.

You'll be volunteering to speak with classrooms over video chat about your work, and answer their questions! You can volunteer for up to 5 sessions per semester.
