This is infuriating: a major spill of hexavalent chromium into the huron river, which we drink, fish, and swim. Tribar also caused severe PFAS pollution. Without reasonable laws to hold them accountable, we must find other ways. Their clients should act @Ford @GM @Rivian et al.

The Holocene Temperature Conundrum is a little less of one now thanks to Alex Thompson's new work showing how vegetation affected global temperature of the last 10,000 yrs! https://t.co/AbJFLZ6s9F

OPINION: We don’t want to go back to living on planes and out of suitcases. Virtual meetings are cheaper, more accessible and better for the planet. https://t.co/qb7nSLndbW

Congratulations to Alex (@ajtclimate) on the successful defense of his dissertation proving that vegetation matters to #Holocene climate change! @MichiganEarth

Good article reporting on burnout in academia, which is a problem that has been exacerbated by the pandemic. Agree that "We need to reward and value the right things." https://t.co/7xgFuiiNXO

Congrats to @DxjDu on this exciting work demonstrating weakened ENSO variability in the mid-Holocene.

New paper alert!
We present a new 9000-yr sub-annually resolved Ti record from Santa Barbara Basin. It demonstrates decreased interannual precipitation variance in Southern California prior 4.4 ka, indicating weakened ENSO variability in the mid-Holocene. https://t.co/Eby8byXvMF
