A trick for fitting world maps on phones:
Stack two azimuthal equal-area projections, clipped at 90° longitude, each one rotated 180° from the other.
The bottom map covers the top's Antarctica, which reduces the total height and looks nice.

A 🧵 on a topic I find many students struggle with: "why do their 📊 look more professional than my 📊?"

My students always ask me what they can do as individuals for climate, and here’s what I tell them:
1. Vote for candidates that will do something about climate change
2. Ride a bike
3. Stop eating meat (or at least beef and dairy)
4. Fly less
