Only one person in history has won both Physics & Chemistry Nobels. Her name was Marie Curie. Her discoveries of polonium and radium transformed science and medicine forever.

Before her death, Jane Goodall left us all with a compelling message from her last interviews: While we’re the most 'intellectual animals' to ever walk the planet, "we’re not intelligent."
“Because intelligent creatures don’t destroy their only home.”

Help keep migrating birds safe tonight. Nearly 17 million birds will be passing through the PNW. The Bird Alliance of Oregon says turning lights out from dusk to dawn will help migrating birds stay on course and keep them happy and healthy. 🚫💡🐦

We are witnessing a full blown war on science, public health & truth itself.
Let me be clear: Vaccines have prevented more than 1.1 million deaths, 500 million cases of illness & 32 million hospitalizations.
That's a lot of moms and dads who don't have to bury their children.

From the moment I made my blue-sky account, I told my self no politics- only science. I tried! But science is and has been on the chopping block with this f-ing administration.

Heat exhaustion is dangerous. Heat stroke can be deadly. Please remember, you cannot hydrate your way out of heat illness. Take frequent rest breaks with your whole body in shade. Heat kills! Especially if doing physically demanding work in high temperatures. #WeFeedYou #CALOR
