Our new blog is a story of the wonders of ice ๐Ÿฅถ and how we can explore the secret world beneath it! @robstorrar.bsky.social explains the SLIDE project, which is contributing to our understanding of #climatechange by studying the fate of Greenland's hidden lakes

A comic from Did This Really Happen?! A woman gives a PhD presentation. After the talk, a man says "To be honest, I didn't listen to anything you said...I was too busy determining whether you would sleep with me". The woman is furious.

Did this *really* happen?!

New blog alert- This month, we are discussing sexism in Geoscience, through a series of anonymous perspectives and with reflections from the Did This Really Happen cartoon team ๐Ÿ™

We hope the piece sparks conversations- we still have a long way to go.
