Não faltaram alertas sobre a necessidade de adaptação aos extremos climáticos, como o relatório do IPCC de 2007. Passaram-se 17 anos e o governo do Rio Grande do Sul não planejou nem implementou mudanças significativas no uso da terra ipcc.ch/site/assets/uploads/…

Check out this super interesting thread by @sophusticated with the main messages of our recently published paper led by @aurora_torresm on construction mining & conservation policies
Sophus zu Ermgassen@sophusticated4 Apr 2024
Very excited to share our *new paper* in @ConBiology reviewing how mining as a threat to biodiversity is covered in high-level conservation policies, & proposing 8 key components of a global strategy to address mining threats. Led by @aurora_torresm conbio.onlinelibrary.wiley.c…

Mining threats in high‐level biodiversity conservation policies

Amid a global infrastructure boom, there is increasing recognition of the ecological impacts of the extraction and consumption of construction minerals, mainly processed as concrete, including...

Check out our global assessment on the effectiveness of mitigation measures to reduce the road barrier!
Dr. Kylie Soanes@kyliesoanes30 Jan 2024
Most of us will have seen images of crossing structures like this by now. They’re becoming popular all over the world, for everything from crabs to cougars. But how well do they actually work? Do they mitigate the barrier effect of roads on wildlife movement? 🧵

Se um cientista disser que 1 xícara de café é mais prejudicial que 3 de glifosato, você acreditaria?🤔 O Joio desconfia.🤨 A microbiologista Natalia Pasternak, que defendeu a vacinação na pandemia, tem reproduzido argumentos da indústria do agro...🧶 bit.ly/47g6otu

Mas que absurdo é esse??
Gabriel Rocha 🦴💀🙉@paleorocha8 Nov 2023
Divulguei meu artigão de revisão aqui esses dias e to muito feliz com o alcance dele. Mas preciso compartilhar algo ruim que aconteceu. Eu sou o primeiro autor desse trabalho, mas não é o que foi publicado. A Revista USP simplesmente inverteu a ordem dos autores

If you are at #ESA2023 come today to our hybrid session Effects and Cost-Effectiveness of Measures That Aim to Mitigate Road Impacts on Biodiversity
Animex International@AnimexInt8 Aug 2023
Today, @fernandaztex, a postdoctoral researcher, is giving a talk at the ESA conference that explores the exciting project we have been working on to monitor how our fencing is helping to reduce road mortality of amphibians in Brazil.🔍🐸 #ESA2023 #RoadEcology #TreeFrogs

Iniciativa muito bem-vinda de expandir o monitoramento para outros biomas. Porém, o termo "desmatamento" é inadequado para ecossistemas não florestais que predominam em biomas como Cerrado e no Pampa, e que são os mais ameaçados pela supressão da vegetação nativa.

It's so important to look at these and work on solutions!

"...female postdocs with caring responsibilities stand out from other subgroup analyses. We find that mothers are most unhappy, depressed, anxious, stressed by care work and their work as postdocs. They report more personal conflicts ...and are most socially isolated."
