This was the best day ever in Davos.
We went toboggining, where I injured my shoulder.
Saw amazing presentations on #WomeninPolarScience and ate the biggest pizza of all time.
Miss everyopne from #POLAR2018, it was such an amazing conference. https://t.co/XIGHvZL6RQ

[Scientific Committee on Antarctic Research (SCAR) @SCAR_Tweets]

Interesting statistic: 75% of the audience at SCAR and IASC's joint plenary on 'communicating science across boundaries' @POLAR_2018 thought 'Boaty MacBoatface' was helpful to science communication. More here https://t.co/aHTPzDAQJk @SCAR_Tweets #iasc

[Dr Barbora Halašková (née Padrtova) @PolarBarbora]

#Arctic #security poll which 39 people from the audience took during my talk at @POLAR_2018 #POLAR2018 last week. RESULTS: The #Arctic is a region of future conflict, at the same time only 4% should be invested in security and defence (30% science&technology)

"Observations" is a passive-sounding term for what is a very active endeavour. Maybe language an update to appeal to those who can make generational investments in observing systems happen, "strategic environmental intelligence"? - Henry Burgess @Arctic_Office #AOS2018 #Polar2018
