There are more ways for coral to survive climate change than experts previously thought. New WCS science can help us find and protect those climate-resilient reefs.

This #ClimateWeekNYC, dive into this hopeful news: https://t.co/5bqiLq9ibk

*me explaining to the robot*: "yeah, so, for reasons we don't really understand, you are incredibly bad at math, so if you ever need to do ANY calculations, and boy do I mean any, please use this calculator I am giving you"

Can you spare a minute help my son’s work earn a Webby? https://t.co/MNclacqDW1

A story I worked on, The Depths She'll Reach by @longlead is 1st place in #Webbys People’s Voice right now. If you could spare a vote it would mean the world! https://t.co/nZ7UbKWD5R

Reducing your smartphone use is better for your well-being than stopping cold turkey.

Experiment: 4 months after decreasing smartphone use by 1 hr/day, people were happier, less depressed & anxious, and led healthier lifestyles.

Digital moderation beats digital abstinence.

@mrejfox Actually it’s more like “will you drag me to my next class?”

[Nicholas Ferroni @NicholasFerroni]

Teaching is saying “Please listen! I’m only going to say the directions once,” then repeat the directions over and over for 30 years until you finally retire.

I’m a healthy adult who wears glasses, so I get it: masks can be a nuisance. But, there’s what, three months left of school? And the kids have already missed a lot of class time in the last two years… I just don’t see how masking a little longer is that big of an issue.

[Kate@TheBirchSchool @KateFFox]

Our “Daily Stand-Up” meeting has turned into the “Daily Lay-Down” apparently…

[Kate@TheBirchSchool @KateFFox]

@DaveRichardsPhD Why do adults promote this during covid? Group singing in crowded enclosed spaces, not masked? Kids’ and staff health don’t matter?

[Kate@TheBirchSchool @KateFFox]

Well done @JoyAnnReid, well done. #TheReidOut
