#EZY6477 27th Aug,

My mum was refused boarding today after honestly telling staff she sometimes faints (non-threatening, well-managed). Instead of showing care, the pilot chose exclusion. Grateful to everyone else who supported her - shame on the pilot for lacking basic humanity. @easyJet

New paper on how maps are utilised in geographic #citizenscience - evaluating 229 applications and applying UX methods to identify critical usability barriers and suggest amongst others how to better support visual thinking to leverage geographic knowledge

What is the future of conservation? UCL's People and Nature Lab and Department of Geography recently organised a conference which included speakers from @naturalengland, @zsl and @GoogleDeepMind to consider this question. Find out more ⬇️ https://t.co/jDkBowus3S

This is useful for anyone interested in #CitizenScience, #Conservation, and #Ecology For those who want to explore these further, apply for the MSc in Ecology and Data Science https://t.co/QndEzXiF5x. From next year, we will provide a CS route with relevant modules and projects

#ECScollaborationgroup: Now @Abesuman tackles the role of #citizenscience in the #food sector, so relevant for our lives and the present and future of our societies.

#ECScollaborationGroup: can civic participation through forms of #citizenscience foster a just innovation in the agri-food sector, promoting the Farm to Fork Strategy and new Water Reuse legislation, both established under the EU Green Deal? @Abesuman @Aware_europe @ACCTING_EU

new paper discussing how to improve #trust in bottom-up #citizenscience with case studies from Japan, Cameroon and the UK with @FreshwaterIzzy @SimonHoyte @mhaklay and Michiel van Oudheusden

New paper: How can citizen science restore public trust in environmental governance? One important take-home message is that acting on the data is important. Case in point: River pollution. We need to start acting on citizen science findings ASAP.

I spent a week as a Deliveroo rider. And learnt a lot. First up, Deliveroo likes to claim you should earn at least the minimum wage of £11.44 while working. Me? I worked for 22hrs 50mins, rode 105 miles, did 27 drop offs and earned £120.38. That works out at £5.28 an hour🧵
