"People think hope is wishful thinking, and actually hope is about action." Quote from the Wiser Than Me podcast with Julia Louis-Dreyfus.
"Only when our clever brain and our human heart work together in harmony can we achieve our true potential." Graphic by the Jane Goodall Institute of South Africa.
"You cannot get through a single day without having an impact on the world around you. What you do makes a difference, and you have to decide what kind of difference you want to make." Graphic by Ariana Huffington on Instagram.
My favourite Jane Goodall quotes....so many, so to the point, so wise. How different the world would be if enough people listened to her.

Margaret Brennan totally exposes FDA Commissioner Makary for making it up as he goes and making conflicting recommendations in order to cast doubt on covid vaccines. He's so terrible during this interview that Brennan is left shaking her head as she wraps it up.

We can give ourselves more than President Trump can ever take away.
To do that, we need a plan to unite, secure, protect, and build #CanadaStrong.

FEMA will stop 100% cost-share in Helene recovery β’ NC Newsline
"I am extremely disappointed and urge the President to reconsider FEMAβs bad decision, even for 90 days," Gov. Josh Stein said.
Trump, who (falsely) claimed during his election campaign that Biden wasn't doing ENOUGH to assist with NC's hurricane recovery....wait for it....just revoked Biden's Dec 2024 hurricane clean-up reimbursement agreement.

A screen grab from the first paragraph of the paper referring to how the myth that scientists can be a βbrain in the jarβ still exists in some scientific circles.
Another screen capture from the first paragraph with the sentence highlighted reading, βscientists often play a crucial role in such crisis through engaging in dialogue with society by framing their research in terms of societal values.β
Hereβs the paper itself if youβd like to read it. Itβs very short. www.nature.com/articles/s44...

A screen capture of the science article on the CBC homepage today, which features a picture of me and a title reading βprominent climate scientist argues itβs time to ditch the myth of neutrality in science.β
Was not expecting to open the main CBC page this morning and see this!
In todayβs climate, I feel our message is even more relevant than even just a few months ago when the interview was recorded.
