Fun read for a drizzly Sunday afternoon... www.theguardian.com/environment/...

After a long drive with kids, I'm always shocked Homer's car design didn't take off!

Currently watching Department Q on Netflix..."not my circus, not my monkeys" is my new favourite saying. I expect to be using it liberally in the coming months.

🚨 Micro(nano)plastics in the fish gastrointestinal tract: A mini review and relevance to One Health perspective www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... 🐟 This review looks at the fish gut, as a critical intersection between environmental, biotic, and human health, aligning with the One Health concept

I passed Holocene Court today and wondered whether these flats in NW London really provide a stable epoch for the development of human civilization? Or was it just a cool sounding name that the developers thought would lure people? 🤷🏻

Back in London for summer hols....1 late and 1 diverted train, stepped in dog poop in the middle of the pavement (!), sprayed by a passing car, every green space is now a building site for new block of flats, but the roads are already congested. Good to be home...also train prices wtf!

Sunday afternoon in a kid's play centre. Watching my kids play whilst listening to meloncholic late 90s/2000s music makes me feel like I live in John Woo movie

🚨 New paper So happy to share the paper from our Clean Shores, Great Lakes project. Thanks to the coauthors that bought this project and paper to success and the 5000+ volunteers, citizen scientists that participated in our clean-ups, data recording, outreach. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Poster day at #SETACVienna

#climatechange and #pollution is a complex topic. For #metals we've been trying to understand the impacts - come see our poster at #SETACVienna

Happy to be presenting our Clean Shores, Great Lakes of citizen science led clean-ups in the African Great Lakes at #SETACVienna next week

www.youtube.com/watch?v=LyHY... Interesting research from the Netherlands finding microplastics in the cases of caddisflies from 50 years ago. This sets a new date for plastics as freshwater problem...

Research Council of Norway proposal submitted

Arrived in Bergen all the way from the University of Dar es Salaam. #proudsupervisor

Important article by @georgemonbiot.bsky.social describing the current situation in terms of complex systems and their fragility or resilience. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

What’s the root cause of climate change and pollution? and how to tackle both issues without causing new problems? 👉 insideclimatenews.org/news/1202202...

Day 2 of Emissions Analytics Tyre Industry and Sustainability Conference. David Shaw, CEO of Tire Industry Research, gave a presentation "Decoding tyre-speak" outlining how the industry works and what they mean when discussing sustainability.

Looking forward to 2 days of tire talk at the Emissions Analytics Tyre Emissions & Sustainability Conference in Prague. Lots of interesting talks on the agenda covering #environmental presence, #chemicals of concern and #toxicology, as well as presentations from the tire industry

Great article from @dralexford.bsky.social and colleagues www.nature.com/articles/s44... . The use of manufactured doubt, deflection and disinformation has become relevant across #environmental #sciences - #PlasticsTreaty and #climatechange. Here's another example of what scientists are facing.

The devastation on its way is unimaginable - like nothing humanity has ever witnessed before - and everyone will wish they had been climate activists and ‘hysterics’ when they had the chance. We are in a moment of unprecedented stupidity

I've seen a lot about #microplastics from teabags in the news recently. Food or drink intake as a source of #plastics is important, but we also need to think about other sources in the kitchen and food prep... see our 2024 paper on this... www.cell.com/heliyon/full...

Enjoying the last bit of cold sun before the rains come this weekend in #Bergen

Joining a new platform allows me to reintroduce Clean Shores, Great Lakes, started in 2022 to #clean-up #plastic #litter in the African Great Lakes. Combining #citizenscience, #schoolsoutreach, #sustainability #stakeholder #policy #mitigation. See: cleanshoresgreatlakes.norceresearch.no

Hello BlueSky! X has become increasingly #toxic so thought I would move here. Looking to connect with folks interested in #environmental #science and #ecotoxicology working with #chemicals, #plastics, #microplastics. #research wordcloud...
