Great new article from Susan Cook-Patton. Revitalizing the planet is about rebuilding local biodiversity and human well-being across the globe, and there are wonderful climate benefits that result if we achieve these things. #GenerationRestoration forbes.com/sites/worldeconom…

PhDs can be challenging and public discourse tends to focus on the negatives. To bring back some balance and positive momentum, this group of students sought to highlight the positive elements of the PhD experience. #AcademicChatter #PhDChat elifesciences.org/articles/8…

Various sources have confirmed that around 22 rhinos have been poached in South Africa in the last 48 – 36 hours, and while the run up to Christmas has historically been a time of year when poachings spike, this recent spate is deeply concerning. (1/4)
