My driveway was the scene of CA’s largest wildfire this year with 353K+ acres burned in the last 76 hours. Living <0.5 mile from the fire was terrifying, but thanks to first responders, we’re now at low risk. Climate change is real. We need real climate solutions. Now. #ParkFire – at Chico, CA

We have to inspire the new generation of scientists and can't start early enough. I will visit a kinder garden next time 🌻.
Madam,We greatly admire your groundbreaking achievement in discovering the Covid vaccine, which has made a significant impact worldwide. On a related note, our 3-year-old child recently participated in their Pre school science day, portraying you, Katalin, as their role model.
