they’re pushing through approx 25% compulsory redundancy focused on humanities & social science without anything close to a financial justification. The only reasonable interpretation is ideological motivation. I am both heartbroken and embarrassed. Sign please. www.change.org/p/stop-redun...

Once more, because glaciology and tectonics are wonderful subjects everyone should know more about, as is the roller-coaster history of speculative geology. Also, ETH Zürich has an outstanding online image library that offered some great photo options. Also, Albert Heim had an amazing beard.
Will Thomas@williamthomas.bsky.social · 2mo agoIn today's AIP History Weekly Edition, we look at Andrea Westermann's recent @hsnatsci.bsky.social article on Albert Heim's late-19c. work in glaciology and tectonics. Heim combined fieldwork, lab studies, and physical analysis to ground speculation about the plasticity and motion of ice and rock.
Tomorrow evening, Deborah R. Coen (Yale University) will be giving the lecture “The Atmospheric Commons: Towards a Usable History of Climate Science.” This event is part of the #lectureseries “On Environment.” The series is organized by the Chair of Environmental Humanities at the RCC.
