Being extreme is not normalised, but you get attention by sounding extreme. Now you can make a whole career out of saying extreme things and monetize it even if you don't get political power #MMR2025

Catherine Woollard- Everyone has an obligation to do what they can in the face of hostile policies, be it the Danish model, the UK model, or the 1930s model; none of these is new. There was resistance before, and there will be resistance now and in the future, in all forms. #MMR2025

Yesterday was a whole vibe I tell you, amazing performances by @hornsphere and the music was top notch 👌. The incredible #HartTheBand and listening to @MissMwanyigha Mceeeing was heavenly. The only event that was successful in bringing together #GenZ, #Millenials and #GenX under one roof. That was one incredible way of celebrating the relationship between #Germany and #Kenya #RangiZaUrafiki hosted by the @GermanyinKenya . Did you know the Amb. @Diplo_Jazz could actually play the piano. We need a repeat 👌😌 @BravinOnditi @SharonMutende it was a vibe.
Yesterday we performed at the ‘Rangi za Urafiki’ Cultural Event — a celebration of friendship, collaboration and creative exchange. Such a vibe sharing the stage with The Unit Band 📸: @seth_creator #hornsphere #hornspheretotheworld

In a layman language, Citizen science in water quality monitoring is when ordinary people, like you and me, help collect and analyze data about the water quality in their community. This is different from traditional science, where scientists are the only ones collecting data.
