Graphs showing cumulative area burned and carbon emissions in Ontario. Note in terms of area burned 2021 is the top spot but 2026 is top spot in terms of carbon emissions. Both are correct. The reason for this is that the 2026 fires are more severe - consumed more biomass (greater depth of burn).

🌊 Aquatic deoxygenation is emerging as a planetary-scale threat. New review argues oxygen loss in oceans and freshwater should be recognised as a ‘Planetary Boundary’ because of its far-reaching impacts on ecosystems and Earth system stability. aslopubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Yesterday the US Administration supercharged its explicit effort to bar international students from staying in the US after graduation. All Americans should know: 1/3 of *all* STEM PhDs working in the US are immigrants who graduated from US universities, then stayed. www.piie.com/index%2Ephp/...

I am not a climate scientist but when I was a kid the number of times we couldn’t go outside because of Canadian wildfire smoke was zero times

Wildfire smoke exposure and mortality burden in the USA under climate change Qiu+ doi.org/10.1038/s415... "When monetized, climate-driven smoke deaths result in economic damages that exceed existing estimates of climate-driven damages from all other causes combined in the USA"

if you only look at the new windows (not around them or at the crumbling walls), then my next project looks ok ps. I dislike drywall and plaster more than most things pps. why don't we cover walls with modular and removable panels? why don't we have Lego-houses? seriously!

Probably more helpful to think of them not so much as “Canadian wildfires” but rather “climate change wildfires currently consuming Canada”

Why I’m a fan of the Oxford comma.

I have procrastinated, but FINALLY I submitted my comment on Russell Vought's attempted politicization of scientific grant-making. For all you other procrastinators, here's where you do it!

I was watching this Green Heron and thought "the moss must feel very nice on that bird's feet." And then I wondered how much feeling they have in their feet. I wasn't able to find any direct research, but they likely have less sensitive feet than us as their feet are mostly bones and tendons, 1/2
