Family cookbooks, filled with handwritten notes, sometimes held together with rubber bands, tell the story of generations of homemakers. They are irreplaceable treasures.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

Whose definition of “forest” will we use? Who gets to decide where the forest will go? Thinking of #politicalecology work by Nancy Peluso and Peter Vandergeest.

The holiday content I need
🎶From Atlantic to Pacific, gee the fish facts are terrific!🎶

#25DaysofFishmas is hitting the road! While there's no place like H.O.M.E.S. for the holidays, we'll be traveling beyond the #GreatLakes this year to learn about freshwater fishes from across the US. The road trip kicks off December 1!

This is a deeply sexist take, given that ~2/3 of minimum wage workers in the US are women.

If you're looking for an alternative to pie! #FoodSky
New! A dream of a pumpkin basque cheesecake that rewards last-minute planners with speed and ease. Almost halfway to pumpkin pie in flavor yet still a basque cheesecake, burnished edges and sunken-by-design center and all.

Some might think them scaly, slimy, or just plain strange, but more maligned species still play a critical role in ecosystems. At #CITESCOP20, we must spare a thought for these less charismatic animals, says WCS's Susan Lieberman.

100 years ago, WCS scientist Marie Fish (left) confirmed for the first time that American eels begin their lives in the Sargasso Sea.

At #CITESCOP20, writes WCS’s Jake LaBelle, it’s up to all of us to ensure their journey continues.
