#OTD in 1970, the Oregon Highway Division consulted with the U.S. Navy and decided the best way to dispose of a whale carcass was to blow it up with a 1/2 ton of dynamite. The explosion caused blubber to rain down on spectators for over a 1/4 of a mile. The TV segment is classic.

Our new paper is out! 🚨🥳 We found high levels of both legacy and emerging contaminants in stranded killer whales from Norway, including a 10 day old calf which just had milk in the belly! 😓

Is glyphosate toxic to #bees? A meta-analytical review (of 16 papers on mortality with 34 data sets) finds it is https://t.co/PPgrTjDJn3 Most of the data sets showed #glyphosate exposure caused higher mortality in most bee species studied. @mbalter @DaveGoulson @JeffOllerton

Why we should not be bringing back neonicotinoids: short blog. Pls RT if you agree.

Our government has authorized use of neonicotinoids on sugar beet - so we can pollute the environment with insect-killing neurotoxins while growing a food with zero nutritive value. Whatever happened to Gove's "Green Brexit"?

@CAndvik @forskningsradet @RCN_Norway Congratulations Clare! 🥳🥳 well deserved!!

[George Monbiot @GeorgeMonbiot]

This is massive, and horrific. @NFUtweets is secretly lobbying the government to allow #neonicotinoid pesticides to be reintroduced after Brexit.
It tells its members: "Please refrain from sharing this on social media."
On the contrary, please RT.

The neonicotinoid clothianidin makes honey bees more susceptible to Varroa mite. Bad news for beekeepers - this chemical is still widely used around the world.

‼️New blogpost! PhD candidate @RobynneCalypso let's us dive into the world of arctic zooplankton, and explains how the energy of these small critters might change in the light of climate change 🦐❄️🌊.

I can't help thinking it's time to ditch the long drives, stodgy food and sofa - and reinvent our festive traditions. Meeting up for a frosty walk, small gatherings in parks and gardens, fresh air and winter sunshine. Let's embrace #OpenAirChristmas

Smartest bees don’t give a sh*t about the technique in a ball rolling task. They can use even plastic lanes as a tool to get the ball in the goal. Video by ⁦@LottaKaila⁩
