Today, my latest publication was published in Global Change Biology. This work is the result of several years of brainstorming, discussing and polishing with three of my favorite collaborators. In it, we discuss how climatic extremes may affect evolution.

Community energy = people powering people ⚡🏘️
It’s when people come together to produce their own clean, affordable energy.
Lower bills ▶️ more control ▶️ greener society.
Imagine a world where your community takes control of their energy future, that’s community energy ✊♻️
