Our world is burning down in front of our eyes, and too few are acting.
It's all hands on deck time. We need to inspire our friends, neighbors, siblings, colleagues to act. We need to talk about what's happening. We need to become role models. We need to be the change.

It’s #InternationalCatDay! Let’s pay homage to P-22, the mountain lion of Griffith Park. He’s survived crossing the 405 & 101, run-ins with koalas at the L.A. Zoo, and rat poison exposure. Learn all about him at our pop-up exhibition, “The Story of P-22.” https://t.co/itS5vaUrN6 pic.twitter.com/xU8R5d5asx

Great thread by @DoctorVive responding to that most subtle and nuanced of climate deniers, @BretStephensNYT.
Her thread is like a masterclass in how climate denial works, how it’s legitimized, and how it causes damage at the highest policy levels. (For shame @nytimes) https://t.co/ccwSDLyHdj

I’ve been sounding this alarm for a while: horticulture is in decline worldwide because young people are not filling positions of previous generations. This comes at the moment our planet needs plant expertise more than ever. This must change. https://t.co/mlCook2pp9
