Hey Public Lab community, seems like you might have things to say on landscapes of risk and geographic vs scientific ways of knowing, check out this call for #AAG2023:
📢 Call for papers for #AAG2023. We’re organising a panel for everyone researching disasters to have been told their work isn’t real ‘science’! Non-real scientists unite in sending us your abstracts on your weird and wonderful research please.
I'm honored to share "Refining Relationships: How an Unlikely Community–Scientist Partnership Led to a Historic Environmental Justice Victory" (OA) co-authored by 5 resident-organizers, a retired state scientist, and other allies https://t.co/Lsgmj0fki3
