This is currently exactly what I’m facing. Leave the country or leave science. And leaving the country is not as easy as everyone thinks it is.
Other countries mostly only want post-docs and other scientists who are much farther along in their career 🫠
Hi Brooke, thanks for doing this!! Awesome resource. Can you add me to the list please?

Everyone I love lives here."

Spread the word! Turn off the lights (unless you're trapping!), leave the leaves, plant all the native plants in every gap, make a pond, stop using chemicals in the garden. I know I am preaching to the converted but insects are important!
