We need to come together to oppose this.

@MJVanni @Hydro_DoctorJ @michiganstateu Congrats, Tanner! And thanks for all of your help with my EPA postdoc project on Acton!

@IAF__FAI I discovered this

[Sarah Waldo @waldosarah2]

I had many international colleagues, and many non-Black, non-Indigenous colleagues of color. Institutions need to probe this model minority myth (see "So you Want To Talk About Race" by @IjeomaOluo) and figure out how to better support all BIPOC.

I went to grad school at @WSUPullman for environmental engineering, and was part of multiple interdisciplinary programs. Of the ~100 students in these progs, only 2 were #BlackInSTEM.

This one highlights that there have been no improvements in PEER (persons excluded because of their ethnicity or race) Persistence in STEM for three decades

For everyone saying: "there's a lot we need to figure out..." about defunding the police.

[Clint Smith @ClintSmithIII]

There is an vast body of literature, research, and analysis that exists on the topic of abolition. People, specifically Black feminists, have been rigorously engaging with the idea for decades. Just because it's an idea you're not familiar with doesn't mean it's worth dismissing.

@Astrobiophile Thank you for making these, they're awesome!

Budgets are moral documents.

[jordan @JordanUhl]

Police spending in America is over $115 billion.

EPA? $9 billion.

CDC? 11 billion.

Thank you @kimlatricejones. I'm listening.

[Sarah Waldo @waldosarah2]

This. @NPR, @MorningEdition @NPRinskeep, your coverage is missing this key point:

[Jerrica @jerricasays_]

They arrested thousands of people to avoid arresting four.

Let that sink in.

[Sarah Waldo @waldosarah2]

.@NPR, @MorningEdition, @NPRinskeep: Why is your news coverage so focused on "controlling" the protests, while you hardly mention that three of the four officers involved haven't been charged?

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

1 Arrest. Not enough.

[Sarah Waldo @waldosarah2]

Seconded.

[Andrew Ault @Andy_P_Ault]

To all of the amazing Chinese researchers I worked with during PhD, postdoc, & in my research group now, you are awesome and shouldn't be subjected to this racist garbage! To US citizen scientists, you know how wrong this is & devastating it would be to US STEM, one word, VOTE!

Missing my old neighborhood in Cincy! #Northside45223

@gavin_mcnicol @GilesPalaeoLab @emsaurios @seis_matters Hey Gavin, we've met a few times at conferences like this. It's important to see this in the context of diversity and inclusion in the sciences. Allies (myself included!) need to be doing the work. Reading this is a good place to start:

We can't go back to business as usual. What I'm taking away from this crisis isn't what the Earth can look like with less pollution, but what humans can do when we work together.

[Sarah Waldo @waldosarah2]

A great resource (free, public) for exploring the impact of the COVID crisis on CO2 levels is the Keeling Curve.

A lot of other people have been speaking up about this, notably @DrKateMarvel, (https://t.co/3qfsBxbuY1).
