Two weeks ago, I had the chance to tell a story at a Moth-style event called Arctic Entries.
With the help of a couple of wonderful coaches, I found a way to compress months of fieldwork collecting mosquitoes in Borneo into a 7 min tale.

I know there's a lot going on in the world, but this seems like the Amazonian drought hasn't gotten adequate coverage anywhere. Anyone working on a story? My friend @HernaniFMO is a great source--ecologist in the region and has been working on documenting what's going on.
Are you ready to try something new and work in #scicomm?

Not an article I wanted to write.
The deadly H5N1 bird flu is spreading widely, including to mammals.
For the first time, it's now likely spreading mammal-to-mammal, among minks which are exceptionally well-suited conduits to humans.
We must act now.

@eli_wyman I really enjoyed the mom&pop conservation project at the Costa Rican Amphibian Research Center. Good trails that eventually get into nice primary forest. In theory <2 hrs from Heredia, buuut traffic. Add an hour to loop back through gorgeous Turrialba https://t.co/dcyv3jDdtN
Superstars indeed! It was a delight getting to know Santino (giving sugar water to a groggy Eidolon dupreanum below) and Angelo and playing a small bit role for this paper. Way to go Ekipa Fanihy!
This summer I drove my electric car 7600 miles from Vermont to Alaska, which would have been tricky enough without, you know, the whole pandemic thing. I wrote a piece about the adventure that just got published here: https://t.co/5CinH9UhKA

@HerrCaitlin @AdamTrot@rachelbwolfe@WSJ@RouteBetter The first production ICE car came out in 1887, and the first highway legal BEV, 2008. Imagine waxing poetic about horses in 1901 after struggling to drive across the country. Yeah, the US is behind on EV infrastructure, but also COME ON! We aren't even a decade and a half in!
@HerrCaitlin @AdamTrot@rachelbwolfe@WSJ@RouteBetter I think these sorts of misadventures should be required reading for anyone attempting an EV road trip, but also I wish the framing was better:
The Democratic Republic of Congo is putting 16 oil exploration blocks up for auction, including nine in the peatlands of the Cuvette Centrale, with the government explaining it needs to generate income to develop the country. Environmentalists warn that... https://t.co/MJT2bqsbV4
I was on the Wapta Icefield last week and missed a pair of impressive, if deeply concerning papers about the future of forests in a warming world, both authored by my friend Bill Anderegg (not on Twitter?)
