Loved this @earthinstitute brainstorm: Postdocs & two climate/sustainability leaders explore how to overcome barriers in dominant academic models hindering young scientists pursuing tough sustainability goals. Here @megmaurer2 notes community-based work takes time...

“Winning” grants/debates etc “Defending” dissertation “Competitive” awards What else comes to mind? Academia is like sports. Worse, it’s conceptualized & practiced as some sort of war or imperialist projects (remember “The Imperial University”?) Need to change this language
