Just back from an amazing month with work at ##SouthGeorgia. This is the summit of Stenouse Peak looking down into Cumberland West Bay. When I first came here 23 years ago the fjord was filled by the Neumayer Glacier down as far as the glaciers on the left. #ClimateAction

Yes you can, Sofia!! Yes you can!! Fun fact: most scientist in the planet do not speak English as a first language ✨ And there are many amazing Latina scientists (who have much less opportunities and visibility than what they deserve, but that is a different story…)
