Bruno David, président du Muséum d'Histoire Naturelle : «La diminution des oiseaux, des insectes, de la microfaune du sol qu'on observe en France est extraordinairement alarmante. On détruit leurs environnements. On perturbe tout le système écologique.» https://t.co/ddtTK8Hdtl

"We invade tropical forests and other wild landscapes, which harbour so many species, and within them, so many unknown viruses.We disrupt ecosystems and shake viruses loose from their natural hosts.When that happens, they need a new host.Often, we are it." https://t.co/CiLRQjvdRh

@brunepoirson @FdeRugy la solution n'est PAS le recyclage du plastique mais bien son éradication. Recycler est presque pire: les vêtements faits à partir de plastiques recyclés libèrent des fibres microplastiques dans l'eau au lavage, par exemple...

Ils sont dans l'eau qu'on boit, dans notre nourriture, et contaminent toute la chaîne alimentaire. Ce sont les microplastiques.

Simberloff: "We should not delude ourselves into thinking that simply by increasing the numbers of species locally or regionally, we are meeting international and highly important conservation targets."

Very clever figure published in this Scientific Reports paper on genomic sequencing of populations from feces:

Download the pdf so you can take a look at Fig1 under high-resolution; zoom in very closely on the baboon turd. Trust me, it will make your day.

Amazing talk from Pr. Hendrik Poinar from @McMasterU @AnthroMac at the @TheNeuro_MNI tonight... "Rewriting black death and the second pandemic of plague: integrating history, genetics, climate and ecology"

[Jean-David Gothié @JD_Gothie]

"A pestilence isn't a thing made to man's measure, therefore we tell ourselves that pestilence is a mere bogy of the mind, a bad dream that will pass away. But it doesn't always pass away and, from one bad dream to another, it is men who pass away..." Albert Camus, The Plague

the protein netrin makes stronger connections among brain cells, playing an important role in learning and memory. https://t.co/jW2pE15zzB #neuroscience

"The pyriproxyfen metabolite 4'OH- pyriproxyfen disrupts thyroid hormone signaling.." is the #1 paper on bioRxiv today in pharmacology and toxicology. Congrats @JD_Gothie @bilalkmughal. See it at -> https://t.co/ABnUMecKqT and https://t.co/Da9zIUKyG3. Please retweet.

Ocean acidification projected through 2100 under a high future emissions scenario. Each unit decrease on the pH scale is a tenfold increase in acidity!

Reprenons le contrôle et inversons la tendance maintenant, il n'est pas trop tard ! ✊ #PlanèteVivante #LPR2018
