"The richest 1% now has as much wealth as the rest of the world combined, according to Oxfam."

It's not immigrants stealing your wealth, but the people paying for the propaganda, to get people to believe this.

Does our food waste support more crows & generalists, and do these species kill/displace other urban birds? Grateful to @r_heisman & @Revelator_News for highlighting my work with @KaiChanUBC @MGEMitchell @HaroldEyster, as we begin to investigate this question. Read ⬇️

@JoeyBernhardt @baumlab Thanks, I needed to hear this!

[Joey Bernhardt @JoeyBernhardt]

A living wage in #Guelph is > $30,000/ year. NSERC scholarships pay well below that, which is not enough to pay for food, housing and other basic needs.

Have you heard of RELATIONALITY or RELATIONAL THINKING, and wondered what that really meant?

It is supposed to be an antidote to over-reductionist thinking

Empirical examples might help. check out our NEW PAPER in @PaN_BES led by @HaroldEyster : https://t.co/UMORTKgNYK
