USGS director Reilly, a former astronaut and petroleum geologist, claims the National Climate Assessment used "inaccurate modeling that focuses on worst-case emission scenarios". There are two problems with this statement. (thread) https://t.co/7wZEyPsuPG

Knotweed can grow through cracks in cement, between floorboards, and out from the joints in a stone wall. Oh, and it’s already in my backyard. https://t.co/CF7WSyNl6c via @slate

THE WORLD'S RAREST BAOBAB SPECIES! In Nov 2018, we went to film Adansonia perrieri in the north of Madagascar. We climbed the crown to observe flowers and visitors. Only 200 baobabs of this species are currently known !
