There are still funding opportunities at NSF in STEM education. Follow Robert Russell on Linkedin for updates! www.linkedin.com/posts/robert...

If I could change one thing about #ScientificPublishing I'd ask funding bodies to stipulate all work they fund be published in non-profit journals. The knock-on effects would alleviate most of the strain on #AcademicSky. This isn't hard. It's big, but actually, it's pretty easy. 1/n

Wastewater!! calling @profsmyth.bsky.social

Concerned Health Professionals of New York opposes the construction of fracked gas pipelines in NYS on public health grounds. We note that the original permits were denied due to egregious risks to air quality and water. That science hasn’t changed. We urge citizens to get informed and speak out.

FracTracker @fractracker.bsky.social has just released a comprehensive, interactive, open-source tracker of US data centers. “Our findings show many facilities are skirting key environmental reviews—like air and water permits.” www.fractracker.org/2025/07/nati...

www.savensf.com Save NSF is a coalition of concerned scientists and allies who are working to save funding for scientific grants through the U.S. National Science Foundation.

Sending this out---NSF cuts have affected many in our community of practice.

Great pointers for talking about climate change from Katherine Hayhoe www.youtube.com/watch?v=jP2D...

So many in out faculty network are addressing Climate Change across the curriculum—these are great strategies for engaging learners!

Plant scientist Reagan Wytsalucy joins us to discuss her mission to track down and study the Southwest peach tree—a variety well-suited for growing in the desert.

The budget proposal eliminates: NOAA’s Oceanic and Atmospheric Research office Stops funding regional climate data, climate competitive research or sea grant programs Severely defunds the Natl Ocean Service & the NMFS www.cnn.com/2025/04/11/c...

Teaching through public health challenges, including HIV, TB, and COVID, has been one of NCSCE’s signature curricular change strategies-they are the bridge connecting science education to civic engagement

A Direct Hit, by @holdenthorp.bsky.social @science.org www.science.org/doi/full/10.... "This is a moment to unite."

Important resource as public data is being removed! @ncsce.bsky.social

This inspiring story would be a great text for undergraduate STEM students--how the history of modern biology, the history of 20thc philosophy, and world history intersect--we owe so much to those who risked their lives to resist authoritarianism and advance human freedom--

In 2017 I had the absolute privelege of hearing a plenary by Sean B Carroll at #Dros17. He told the story of Albert Camus and Jacques Monod. In 1940 occupied France, Monod pursued his Nobel-winning research by day & resistance by night. Read "Brave Genius": www.seanbcarroll.com/brave-genius... 1/2

Alternatives to cdc for those who use public health data to support undergraduate research experiences.

Will take some effort to work through this, but worth it to see the power of Deepseek to clarify some very complex economic possibilities. Thanks @stephaniekelton.bsky.social

Very proud of our colleague Pat Marsteller. who received NCSCE’s highest honor, the Wm.E.Bennett award,for contributions to civically engaged science in 2022.

Great opportunity for undergraduates!

Me, a public health person, just sitting over here reflecting on the fact that the US has experienced a 7% increase in infant mortality post-Dobbs. Like, do you realize what that says about this society from an ethical perspective? That we made policy choices that caused this? #PHEthx

Sitting down to compose a hopeful message for 2025 is a tough ask given the year we’ve just had. Even glib sentiments are hard to come by. The defeat of pro-democracy forces in the US presidential election still weighs like a heavy anchor on my attempts to move on. 1/11

There is a lot of focus on “disinformation “ as the biggest problem for democracy—this important article by @himself.bsky.social explains that the problem bigger and more complicated

Big gas on campus: “It’s a classic example of academic capture where the private interests use the public infrastructure for their own profit-seeking motives rather than the needs of the community or the state.” @sarasneath.bsky.social @NatalieMMc_ @guardian www.theguardian.com/environment/...

@jeffsparrow1.bsky.social hi Jeff, very glad to find you via your conversation piece! As a climate scientist who advocates for collective action and keeps this pinned to the top of her social accounts, I definitely need to read your book. Just ordered!

Is the congressman representing Silicon Valley, @rokhanna.bsky.social, really basing his policy rationale off how many views he gets on X, a platform with completely opaque systems for recommendations and view counts, and owned by a guy we know uses the algorithm to promote himself?

An All-Star roster of climate scientists cleared their throats recently and it was something to behold. Their message to Net-Zero experts in every sector? You're Doing It Wrong 🧪 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

As climate scientists, @michaelemann.bsky.social and I fight side by side for a better future every day —even when miles apart. But having the chance to be together in person is always a joy! Though my talk today wasn't livestreamed, it was recorded. I'll share the link when it's available.

The landscape may be shifting, but CETI's work to accelerate an equitable clean energy transition in the Northwest continues. Read our November Newsletter to get caught up on the latest: www.cleanenergytransition.org/post/the-lan...

Great starter pack on climate!
