Huge 9th Circ win for tribes, enviros fighting Rosemont Copper Mine: It is NOT ok to dump waste on 1000s of acres of public land that lack valuable minerals. My story from MoJo explains plaintiffs’ clever argument and how case could affect future mines. motherjones.com/politics/202…

Huge win for S. AZ & protection of our waters & wildlife & spectacular scenic vistas & tourism economy today! A fed'l appeals court threw out Rosemont Copper mining plan on public lands, saying it was an illegal give-away to the Canadian mining company.loom.ly/D4fh-ns

Where does your recycling actually go? We used trackers to follow plastic bags and snack wrappers 2,000 miles across Europe. bloomberg.com/graphics/2022-… via @bbgvisualdata Just b/c it can be recycled doesn't mean it is. Important story from @BloombergGreen

"Plastic IS climate change" - great reporting and storytelling by @rebecca_altman theatlantic.com/science/arch…
We have to talk about plastic. It dominated the last century and will dominate this one as a leading cause of climate change—not because anyone wants more of the stuff, but because the logic of manufacturing demands that it be made, writes @rebecca_altman. theatlantic.com/science/arch…

Everyone needs to read this article in its entirety. There are so many important lessons to learn from these women and their stories. We need changes in all research institutions, including @stri_panama, to address widespread sexual harassment in #STEM
Women face multiple barriers in Science that bring us down or push us out. The pervasive and toxic culture of sexual harassment like the one I experienced @stri_panama needs to change!

Exactly this:
"Even though the #mining industry might benefit from a modernized law, miners don't want to throw their baby -- perceived right to mine w/few restrictions -- with the bathwater"

as @ElizabethRoyte writes for @NatGeo, nothing is more certain about global warming than that it will lead to hotter weather—and more suffering.
