It's baffling why the Go8 (a group of 8 leading universities in Australia) endorsed a position to weaken environmental laws. Not only do we, the researchers at these universities, disagree, but our research shows it is a bad idea. In just one day, 90 Go8 researchers documented our opposition.

Why not in the South of France? Then fill in this questionnaire and spread the word: framaforms.org/my-interest-...

📢New Paper Alert📢 on corals and climate change in Science Adaptation via natural selection could determine whether Acropora corals persist under expected levels of global warming Hyperlinks & explainer thread below ⬇️ (1/12)

A huge lab effort! Using reproducible criteria we found that 68% of #coral studies had cryptic taxa and that (when tested) these species have permeable species boundaries (i.e., #hybridisation). We describe the implications of cryptic taxa and hybridisation for #conservation #restoration in detail!
