2/3 When we started Planet, our mission to image the Earth daily at 3-4m resolution was driven by the deforestation case: we needed to see an individual tree to stop the large fraction of deforestation happening at that level (‘degradation')& daily imagery was needed to stop it!

Our center is growing! We have a number of wonderful opportunities available right now from postdocs to tech positions. Check out our "Careers" page to learn more and apply: bit.ly/38lmjIz

A deeply tragic story. Impressive, important reporting by Patricia Callahan, Kirsten Berg, Sebastian Rotella, & James Bandler. propublica.org/article/inside…

I wrote this in July when the 2nd surge was underway. The 3rd is upon us; this piece still holds. The exhaustion is palpable in the voices of people I interview. They’ve been sprinting a marathon. So much has already been asked of them. It’s untenable. theatlantic.com/health/archive…

Exciting postdoc opportunity in the @asner_lab to be an integral part of a team of ecologists, pathologists, & foresters working to find solutions for the deadly fungal pathogen devastating Ohia, Hawaii’s dominant native tree species. Learn more & apply: bit.ly/38lmjIz

New pub out in Remote Sensing of Environment with Greg Asner & Roberta (Robin) Martin on modelling global tropical forest functional traits using Sentinel 2 #remotesensing data: bit.ly/31axLoN

How do our advanced #remotesensing maps support #conservation efforts? By providing diagnostic rather than prognostic insights. Our maps provide policy makers with the scientific evidence they need to make informed decisions. One example: #GlobalSafetyNet: bit.ly/2HLrEkh

Biodiversity loss related to the change of landscapes can increase emerging disease risk & in some cases lead to zoonotic transmission. - 🆕 ipbes #PandemicsReport: ipbes.net/pandemics

Our new film "Our Mothers’ Land" is live! In partnership w/ The Gecko Project (BlueSky: @thegeckoproject.org) we sent journalist @febrofirdaus to meet women around Indonesia who've risen to lead social movements, facing violence, imprisonment & judgement as they fight for their rights.

Crazy cool!

Larval Hawaiian Velvetfish (Caracanthus typicus, ~1cm) sporting extremely formidable head shield and serrated spines. This adaptation to pelagic life is lost in adults, which live in corals & are covered with soft papillae (hence the name). #Larvalfish #FishLarvae #Ichthyology

"Say ecological justice!" 📸 We're here with @ridhimapandey7 Greg Asner 🌍Lorna Gold 🌏 after the movie premiere of The Letter #LaudatoSiFilm!

👏🎬❤️ A lot of excitement and joy yesterday at the #Premiere of the movie The Letter at the Vatican! Did you watch it? What did you think? Tell us in the comments! 💬 Tomás Insua Integral Human Development 🌍Lorna Gold 🌏 Greg Asner Off the Fence @ridhimapandey7  #LaudatoSiFilm

Help get this to A BILLION. Many have asked how two scientists got involved in the movie. My answer is that science needs to serve at historical boundaries between communities, cultures, & belief systems. Science is a toolkit. People are the force for change. #LaudatoSiFilm

I took a closer look at Arizona State University's cutting-edge coral reef research in Hawaii with ASU GDCS Director Greg Asner. Goggles up, #ForksUp. 🔱🤿🪸
