How do you know if a person is #smart? You ask questions.
How do you know if a #soil is #healthy? You take measurements.
But are we taking the right #measurements?
I think we can do better.

The #EU #GreenDeal is being degraded to meaninglessness & this needs to #stop.
Together we can make it happen. With colleagues I wrote an open letter saying that science is supporting the Green Deal and it needs to be reinstated with ambition.

Climate Change:
It's real.
It's us.
It's serious - and already dangerous.
But there are solutions.
The science is clear: the faster we cut emissions, the less suffering we will cause, and the better off we'll all be.
