Mirad el documental de Guille Ojeda sobre la problemática de los gatos en la calle, que no es moco de pavo (... ni el problema, ni el docu)
Un gusto haber participado, aunque la amabilidad es discutible y será discutida
Qué pedazo de TFM
👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼
Comparto un breve documental que ha realizado mi hijo como TFM de su máster en Comunicación Científica y Medioambiental de la UPF. Ha contado con el asesoramiento científico de investigadores reconocidos (y amables!!) Espero que os guste.

The EU is about to deregulate New Genomic Techniques (NGT) in Europe.
Target of the planned legislation is for applications in agriculture, but a small 'detail' will apply it to ALL 300,000 plant species on Earth.
A petition was placed by scientists:

Do not deregulate New Genomic Techniques (NGT) for wild plants!
The EU could soon approve a new legislation that facilitates unregulated application of New Genomic Techniques to all plant species - including all wild plants. Sign the petition to protect our natura...

The strawberries are finally there!
Tip of the month:

Let's wait for summer.
