You may have heard of the amphibian #chytrid fungus Last year Scheele et al. claimed chytrid caused >500 species declines. Scary! But it's not true. We tried to reproduce their claims with their own data & methods Read our reanalysis & comment here 1/ https://t.co/WS2QdgqVb0

Housing or trees? Science says "why not both?" 🌲 🏡 🏢 🌲 We need housing. We also need trees. Our new research across western Washington shows that gaining housing at the expense of trees is not inevitable #winwin #conservation #housing #biodiversity

Love that Olympia's city staff drive vehicles decorated in winter garb and lights across the different neighborhoods each year. Amazing way to celebrate city employees and the holiday season ❄️☃️🧑🎄🎄🚒🚔🚚

So excited to see this paper out. We found that: •Non-LGTBQIA+ scientists overestimate the degree to which LGBTQIA+ respondents feel included in conservation •LGBTQIA+ scientists feel up to 50% less safe and a lower sense of belonging at work https://t.co/xcY60DNyBP

Today my Senate colleagues voted to make me Chair of the Senate Housing Committee beginning in 2025. As chair, I will continue the fight to lower housing costs, expand our supply of housing, support first-time homebuyers, increase affordable housing & stabilize renters.

Well one thing’s for sure—never give up. Trump knows this all too well. For the rest of us who believe in human rights and democracy, we’re never giving up either. It’s another long uphill battle but I’m here for it. I know we can be better than this—we will persevere ❤️

"Pinks have already altered and will continue altering Finnmark’s habitat... Whatever the outcome, change has already arrived." Loved this @judeisabella/@hakaimagazine story on the non-native pink salmon transforming Norway's rivers, for both ill & good. https://t.co/jNxmFVx6M9

Non-native pink salmon have swarmed Norway’s rivers, prompting a relentless—and potentially fruitless—fight to beat back the invaders.
