[Land & Carbon Lab @landcarbonlab]

Grasslands—including shrublands & savannas—cover ~40% of Earth, supporting 1B+ people & storing vital carbon. Yet, only 10% are protected.

The #GlobalPastureWatch consortium is creating groundbreaking data to monitor & protect these critical ecosystems. https://t.co/jOceKks3bR

I’m at #AGU24 this week! Stop by my poster (B11G-1396) Monday morning to learn about the production of our global, annual, 30-m grassland extent maps (2000-2022) that are launching later this week! @landcarbonlab

New in @ScienceMagazine: Climate change exacerbates the environmental impacts of agriculture. It was a privilege to contribute to this all-star Ag-Clim team! Thanks to Yi Yang @ Chongqing University for his leadership. https://t.co/VvtQk1FySQ

[Matthew Hayek @matthewhayek]

Come present at a wide-spanning session at AGU 24 on livestock production, trade, and its environmental impacts. This will be the first session I've convened at the annual conference. Submit an abstract at the link below. I hope to see you there! https://t.co/esGnTR4HW8

[Land & Carbon Lab @landcarbonlab]

Hear from leading scientists, technologists and practitioners as they discuss how advances in geospatial mapping can help us advance this decade’s climate, nature and sustainable development goals 🌍

Cropland is expanding, but less than half of this land directly feeds us: only 37% of the harvested area of major crops is used for foods that are produced and consumed domestically. The rest goes to exports, processing, industry, or other uses. https://t.co/cLwZimo0PK

[Lindsey Sloat @alpineglow]

@bjenquist I'll be there! It would be great to catch up!

[Lindsey Sloat @alpineglow]

@KowalVA @LeahSamberg Yes! Worlds collide! I would love to catch up with you as well! (or crash your chat with @LeahSamberg )

[Tim Searchinger @TSearchinger]

Great new position available at the World Resources Institute to manage a new initiative on reducing global methane from agriculture. (Thanks for retweets to get the word out.) WRI has lots of exciting partners to work with and a growing food program.

I'm recruiting a postdoctoral researcher @ColoradoStateU to work on climate change impacts on agriculture and water resources. Feel free share with any interested colleagues. DM me with any questions! https://t.co/uPgMDNP18B

[Lindsey Sloat @alpineglow]

I started a new job this week as a Research Associate for @WorldResources Land and Carbon Watch. I'm super excited to be part of this new team working on ghg and land monitoring! Although I already miss @muellern and friends at CSU.

@KateBrauman There it is! <3

@KateBrauman But did you consider that they could be anxiety making homemade play dough for their toddlers?

[Lindsey Sloat @alpineglow]

@HydroClim @SteveDavisUCI @MeganKonar @muellern @coolfireecology @ClimateFran @RayDeepakk What a great looking paper that certainly should have been cited! I regret that I didn't read it earlier. Thanks for sharing!
