Michael Rodriguez and Marco Gebiola show that bokashi fermentation of brewery waste can reduce N2O and NH3 emissions in insect upcycling. Circular economies can be made greener through attention to these details. @MichaelVRod3 sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

A picture speaks a thousand words. Our communities are being affected by port pollution on a daily basis. We need @SouthCoastAQMD to act on #PollutionFreePorts by beginning the ISR process now. calmatters.org/environment/2…

So glad I attended #AGU21 in #NOLA It was my first non-SF AGU and first meeting in person for 2 years. While there were a lot of missing faces, enjoyed excellent student presentations, seeing colleagues face-to-face, and NOLA fun. Fingers crossed that triple vaxx & masking work

Impostor syndrome is a paradox: -Others believe in you -You don't believe in yourself -Yet you believe yourself instead of them If you doubt yourself, shouldn't you also doubt your judgment of yourself? When multiple people believe in you, it might be time to believe them.

We should be following in the footsteps of Emperor Palpatine/Darth Sidious-- and we don't mean by joining the Dark Side! @SouthCoastAQMD: If we #ElectrifyWarehouses by passing a #StrongISR, we'll have clean, unlimited power in the goods movement industry too! #MayThe4thBeWithYou

One of those effects of climate change you might not think about: The worsening heat at the @coachella music festival. A @UCRiverside study found that global warming will endanger winter tourism in the valley... including its pop-star-studded festival. link.springer.com/article/10…

Casaundra Caruso, student featured in this article, did research in my lab summer 2019. She is an outstanding, motivated student. The fact that she struggled so much upon beginning at UCR exemplifies the challenges UCR students face (esp transfers) latimes.com/california/story…

UC Merced and UC Riverside serve more racially marginalized students than other campuses and yet have far fewer resources to do that job.
