Well, it's official. After our paper last year (onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10....), the Slender-billed Curlew is officially declared Extinct today.

Scientists dream of describing new species, not writing their obituary and epitaph, knowing that they are gone forever #ornithology

Venezuelaโ€™s opposition leader on Trump, Maduro, and why the ballot box isnโ€™t the answer this time Venezuela's opposition leader Marรญa Corina Machado discusses boycotting the upcoming elections, Trump's Venezuela policy, and the migrant crisis.

To all those feeling Schadenfreude that Trump "lost": Machado is in Trump's camp. Trump "won" by proxy.

Unfortunately, theyโ€™ve caused irreparable harm here with their lobbyists and dark money connections. However, I WILL rejoice if/when the NRA ceases to exist.

The fascist nightmare in the USA has been in the works for a long time. The gun lobby has been one of its long-term architects.

I could go on a long rant about how commercial potting mixes are including too much organic material and not enough conditioners like perlite. Peat (a surprisingly scarce resource) is being wasted. Plants are dying of root rot. It creates perfect conditions for gnats.

Vermiculite (must be labelled as โ€œpureโ€) or diatomite are other alternatives. Centuries of burning and draining of peat by humans has released a significant amount of CO2 into the atmosphere, contributing to anthropogenic climate change. Harvesting peat destroys carbon sinks

Tech billionaires seem to be doom prepping. Should we be worried? The debate is ramping up about what happens if - or when - computer intelligence overtakes humans
