Counting species & totting up extinctions are very weak ways of determining human impacts on nature - both only measure loss when the last individual of a species is gone

Assessing ecosystem loss & degradation, & declines in abundance of wild populations are more informative

Happy to announce that my paper with the great @vgarcianavas and super @SaxPrentice is out in @NatureComms
Land-use diversity explains global 🌐 patterns of bird 🐦 taxonomic and functional richness!!

A final nail in the fossil-fuel coffin? Here is a key paper providing proof that @Exxonmobil has known since the 1970s that their oil and gas causes climate change. Something they have been denying and diminishing for decades. Admit mistakes, and accelerate fossil-fuel phase-out.

One week left to apply for this post doc at Uppsala U, aimed at quantifying the role of selective determinism versus historical contingency in thermal adaptation of insect pests: https://t.co/k8Jqzal56d

DM me about details - deadline may be extended.

Thanks for sharing🙌

Tom Staton @qmee_cdt successfully passed his PhD viva yesterday on #agroforestry with no corrections, four published papers and a fifth in a review!

[Richard Walters @ABritinScania]

Congratulations Tom! Well deserved.
