Amazing paper, @HBrumb! Such important work.
Click below to read the team's paper, "Increasing Forest Cover and Connectivity Both Inside and Outside of Protected Areas in Southwestern Costa Rica"
Our paper that came out yesterday found that #forest cover and connectivity increased both inside and outside of protected areas in the region of Costa Rica where I lived for 4 years! Kudos to collaborators @NASA_DEVELOP & @osaconservation mdpi.com/2072-4292/16/6/1088 @RemoteSens_MDPI
Excellent work, @ZiaMehrabi and team!

Long-form interview on @KGNU about our recent study of climate change's impact on elections.
I talk about how the idea came from a conversation with @ChrisBarnardDL at the 2022 @CUBoulder Global Climate Summit, what we found, & what it might mean for '24.

A new @NatureClimate perspective out today, led by @matthewgburgess. We argue for opportunities to amplify the effectiveness of recent U.S. climate policies informed by social science. Check out Matt's thread & read paper here: rdcu.be/dv7hM @CIRESnews @CUBoulderENVS
The IRA has the potential to significantly reduce US emissions, as @JesseJenkins, @JEBistline and others have shown. In a new @NatureClimate paper, we discuss the supply, demand, and polarization challenges that could get in the way. 1/

See Dr. Peyton Thomas in action!! You're an inspiration!

“EARTH run was never meant to be the takedown of the wood pellet biomass industry,” says Peyton Thomas. “It was meant to be a source of conversation… a source of inspiration to spark deeper connections with these forests and an example of what collective action can look like.”
