There is lots we can't do at the moment to make the world a better place, but opening up @geolsoc.bsky.social on the day of #Pride in London (we're on the parade route!) might be one of them! Join us for drinks, nibbles, & photo booth fun with our LGBTQ+ group! 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ www.geolsoc.org.uk/events/gsl-p...

It's poster time again at #EGU25, this time from our @geolsoc.bsky.social Science and Events teams talking about how we can bridge the gap between #geosciences & (dis)engaged audiences... Come say hello to Tom in room X2.51 before 15.45 & share your opinions on open data and scientific meetings!

Poster session time at #EGU25 & our incredible Education team from @geolsoc.bsky.social are presenting on our educational resources - go say hello to Sarah at X2.81 before 18.00 today to find out more!

There is some chaos again in academic publishing, so a quick reminder that some societies manage their own journals in house & offer OA options, discounts, read & publish deals etc. Any "profits" go back into the Society to support charitable activities incl. education & funding #AcademicSky

I keep thinking (hoping?) I will start to use BlueSky regularly and it'll be different to the other place, that it'll be "better" somehow, but the world seems to be burning and it's just... We deserve better. ALL of us.

If you want to join our starter pack please do comment below - we are going to start a third one soon And if you asked to be in in the past but now feel you are at risk for being in them, do DM us and we will remove you. #StaySafeStayStrong go.bsky.app/Cw9bRYZ go.bsky.app/Cw9bRYZ

Not unexpected, but still 😭 #AcademicSky

And so it begins, #AGU24! Already got lost trying to find the first room this morning, but full of excitement for the science this week, starting today with lots of #PlanetaryScience, #AI & #MachineLearning, along with #SciencePolicy..

Well, a surprisingly sunny 19°C Sunday afternoon in DC today made for a nice walk before the week's chaos begins! Who else is around for #AGU24 this week? There will be a few of us from @geolsoc.bsky.social about, so come say hello! ⚒️ #academicsky

In case you haven't heard, @geolsoc.bsky.social has finally secured a 999-year lease at Burlington House, securing its future! Work now begins to make it more accessible & sustainable, as well as focus on education & outreach more regionally as well! ⚒️ Full statement: geolsoc.org.uk/burlingtonho...
