Happy birthday to #paleontologist Mary Anning (1799 – 1847)! 🧪🐡⚒️ #histsci She was the wrong class, sex & religious denomination to gain the education, opportunity to work & communicate her results or garner any respect as a pioneering paleontologist. Further, during her lifetime most people thought

Just 3 days until #BiodiversityDay 2026! 🌿 From communities to cities, from individuals to institutions, every effort counts. Be part of the movement to implement the #KMGBF. Visit the IDB website 🔗 www.cbd.int/biodiversity... #LocalAction #ForNature #UNBiodiversity #IDB2026

The Museum of Natural Sciences at the University of Saskatchewan will always have a special place in my heart 🦖❤️ Here in Finland I like @heureka.fi, Natural History Museum Luomus in Helsinki, and the Science Centre Tietomaa in Oulu

Some amazing science museums allow you to learn inside and outside... For this I suggest: @planetariodoporto.bsky.social and biodiversity hall mhnc.up.pt/en/hall-of-b... @cienciavivalagos.bsky.social lagos.cienciaviva.pt/3475/turismo...

On this April 1st, EvoKE didn’t want to trick you… but to challenge a common #misconception. Try this: search “evolution” and look at the images. What do you see? Chances are, it’s the “march of progress”. 👉 But this gives the wrong idea. #Evolution isn’t linear, it’s branching.

📣The EvoKE Webinars are back! We are excited to relaunch the EvoKE Webinars on 16 April with Gregor Torkar, who will explore how #evolution education can support #sustainability competences and its links to GreenComp – the European Sustainability Competence Framework. 🔗 Learn more: bit.ly/4bo31Uw
