Deforestation can make bednets less effective. Whoah. New findings from Tafesse Estifanos and team at @gundinstitute. These interactions between nature and health are everywhere, as highlighted this week by the #NexusAssessment here at #IPBES11 in Namibia .

Vermonters checked off a spring rite Sunday: ice-out at West Danville's Joe's Pond. Such local observations are a "goldmine" of data for climatologists, says State Climatologist & #UVM prof. Lesley-Ann Dupigny-Giroux. https://t.co/KhOn6Ay6ax from @vermontpublic's @AbagaelGiles
