Massive and energized crowd in Seattle says #HandsOff Democracy on a sunny Saturday. Who did an accurate crowd count? Easily 30,000 “pissed but peaceful” patriots.

These are awesome. Would love to see similar pics when rally was at its peak to measure crowd size. Estimated size: 2,000-5,000. Anyone catch that or have official numbers?

So heartening to see a few thousand scientists, grad students, healthcare workers, support staff, and members of the public #standupforscience at the Seattle rally. The message - Science is for everyone - rang loud and clear. And so many great signs…

The crowd is swelling as Seattle stands up for science. @govbobferguson.bsky.social just stopped by. Fired NOAA researcher, censored mathematician, and climate scientists are showing why science is for everyone! #standupforscience2025

This is a great list of books to calm the nerves and soothe the soul.
I was deeply disappointed by the lack of nature/science/climate/enviro on many major end-of-year book lists—so I decided to make my own!

Ok, for all the journalists out there who’ve seen Wicked the movie, what were the chillingly prescient moments that struck you? (I need to see it again - and take notes.)

Just went through this with my dad. His old hearing aids weren’t cutting it and he thought he was just going to have to suffer in silence. But I string-armed him into getting custom made devices that have a tighter fit and can be “turned up” more than off the shelf models. Now, he loves them!

Yes, this.

Yes, this.
I think we (the world) must create market conditions and mechanisms that will make reaching climate finance targets not just achievable but economically advantageous. How we do that is another question. But what about prioritizing decarbonization using an abundance model?

So sad that this is necessary in the US. But it is. Safety and security are top issues now.

Many commentators say that vigilante groups are never the answer. But they clearly don't know about the masked Ecuadorian trio named “Acción Ortográfica Quito,” who roam the streets at night with a singular purpose: to correct all the spelling and grammar mistakes they find in graffiti.

Whew! Glad we’re not losing @hakaimagazine.com. Can’t wait to see how this partnership evolves.
It's OFFICIAL. @hakaimagazine.com will continue; not in name, but in spirit.
In January 2025, senior staff from Hakai will be joining bioGraphic magazine www.biographic.com
That means more awesome narrative features and science-based news.
But, of course, WE NEED YOUR HELP
