PCBs are a harmful class of chemicals that continue to threaten drinking water sources nationally, via storm/wastewater 🌩️. Excited to see Mayor Brandon Johnson taking bold action to protect drinking water (Lake Michigan!) for all: holding companies financially responsible for the harm
Enjoyed your new paper Moss Imberger @RyanMBurrows on conceptualizing these critical waterways in our urban world!! Everyone should check it out!💦 journals.uchicago.edu/doi/full/10.10…
Such cool research Elise Paietta! Excited to see what you find and for Duke to celebrate your work :D
I wonder if Durham Workers Assembly can do anything? Instead of Bull City Ciderworks, I’ll start going to other locally owned spots in town - like Moon Dog Meadery and Bottle Shop Honeygirl Meadery. Thanks for sharing Melvin Peña
Joining AGU (American Geophysical Union) to call on Congress to pass a bill to ensure all student & post-doc scientists are financially supported! I wouldn’t be able to pursue my PhD in science without a livable wage - this is what makes science accessible to many Congresswoman Valerie Foushee p2a.co/D9WWcmY
Happy to be part of this Duke Forest event with Jonny Behrens to talk about work with Emily Bernhardt and Amanda DelVecchia on river carbon fluxes (and farts!): researchblog.duke.edu/2024/01/25/glo…
