Pressure to publish is rising as research time shrinks, finds survey of scientists www.nature.com/articles/d41...

"68% of respondents said the pressure to publish their research is greater than it was two to three years ago..."

This fuels poor quality pubs!

In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.

Australian deserts don't get climate-change headlines – they should
Australia’s desert country is rarely part of the global climate conversation, although it's Earth's largest connected conservation corridor.

Thank you to the advocates, like Dr. Marie Claire. This is a big step. The Trump admin has defunded and cut women’s health research, especially on the uterus, pregnancy & menopause. Removing the estrogen warning opens the gate for progress our daughters deserve. #WomensHealth #ScienceMatters

What would it look like if the world came together to prevent the fossil fuel industry from obstructing science-informed public policy and its implementation? UCS's Kathy Mulvey decided to imagine what a COP free from fossil fuel industry influence would look like. act.ucsusa.org/4hSh9IA
Imagining a COP Free from Fossil Fuel Industry Influence
COP30 will be a pivotal moment in global efforts to limit the worst impacts of climate change and advance a just transition centering workers, communities, and Indigenous Peoples.

Nonprofits like SubjectToClimate are stepping up, but the loss of trusted science resources is hitting classrooms hard.

Public trust disintegrates.
Parents hide their children. Clinics empty.

That's a completely inappropriate comparison. At the time of the Black Death, there was neither modern science nor global networking. One thing is certain, however: many groups are spreading misinformation and are just as ignorant of scientific matters as they were back then.
