Today is the first day I won’t be working in months (inc weekends). But I’m not having a day off, I’ll be picketing with @coventryucu. University workloads are unsustainable. I love my job, but I can’t provide the service students deserve while I’m at breaking point. #ucuRISING

On our final day we visited Brockholes, a @Lancswildlife reserve, where students looked for evidence of ecosystem service provision. Sadly they were too busy working to have their photo taken, but here are staff Joe Hewitt, @MPK_1, @Jade_Catterson & @nigeltrodd meeting Mr Toad!

I’m keen to warn you about a scam which my lovely, kind mum so nearly fell for. It was incredibly believable. Someone pretends to be you but on a different number, contacts someone close to you and asks them to quickly pay a bill for you before you pay them back. Mum in green 👇🏼

A perspective.
Thousands of students travel to schools and universities from these homes and conditions each day and return to it to complete assignments, projects and research.
When they achieve success - matric or a degree - it deserves a damn standing ovation.
Wonderful travel experience so far! Flight departs in 45 mins and I’m still waiting outside in the world’s longest queue #birminghamairport

Incredible satellite imagery from Himawari capturing a new year eruption at Hunga Tonga Hunga Haapai. The information available through remote sensing is continuing increasing and this demonstrates a critical use!

Our climate stations recorded a brief spike in air pressure as the atmospheric shock wave pulsed across New Zealand.

Inclusive economic participation drives sustainable economic growth.
When women are economically empowered, poverty reduction, improved standard of living & gender equality are easily attained.
To achieve this, dismantling barriers to their economic participation is 🗝.
