Conference season is near.
Dear fellow academics, first of all you shouldn't be flying anywhere for a conference, the climate crisis is real ffs.
Second, DO NOT GO TO THE US unless you are cool with being detained, harmed and potentially deported to Salvadoran prison camps.
So: DO NOT GO TO THE US.

Scientists do not get paid for getting quoted in the newspaper about science.
People know this, right?
Last year I was quoted in about 30 media articles, and I received a grand total of $0 for this.
We do it because it’s important, not because we get paid.

Welp this is horrifying. These researchers quantified the "stratigraphy" of plastic waste used in Common Coot nests. Using expiration dates, they found one nest that contained 635 (!!!) pieces of trash, including plastic dating back to 1991.
