A rare sight to not see Tokyo Tower lit up at night as the nation mourns the assassination of former PM Shinzo Abe. Photos taken July 9, 2022. #AbeShinzo #TokyoTower #Japan #Tokyo

I was selected to receive the Japan Society for the Promotion of Science Summer Fellowship in 2020. After a two-year delay because of Covid, I have arrived at Teikyo University and am working with Dr. Kohei Watanabe on food waste research in Japan! #foodwaste #Teikyo #JSPS #Japan

My chapter on Global Survey of Food Waste Policies is live in the The Palgrave Encyclopedia of Urban and Regional Futures. Thanks to @Robert_Brears for the opportunity, which I learned about through @AESSnews listserve. #FoodWaste @SpringerNature @Palgrave doi.org/10.1007/978-3-030-51…

As an avid birder who is a social scientist with a degree in #environmentalpolicy, I am very happy to have reviewed an excellent book on #urban #raptors by Clint W. Boal and Cheryl R. Dykstra @IslandPress for the Social Science Journal. #birding #conservation
Thank you @SenWhitehouse for #REDUCEAct bill. In 1999, while a student @universityofri, I gave a persuasive speech on #recycling in a communications course. I never would have imagined such little traction after 2 decades. #environmentalpolicy
Polluters are trying to sink my REDUCE Act, so I’m here to lay out the facts. Check back tomorrow for another video debunking plastic industry myths.

🔴Only 5 of the #G20 countries had targets for the #RenewableEnergy %—and only 3 reached those targets. The question shouldn’t be whether we’re aiming for #NetZero—it should be: how do we get there? Follow @REN21 to learn more👇

Millions of electric car batteries will retire in the next decade. What happens to them? theguardian.com/environment/…
I am on the board of an NGO that supports development work in #Paraguay and am gathering contact information of media outlets through which to advertise the grants we offer. Thanks in advance! #internationaldevelopment #Asuncion #ConoSur #SouthAmerica #Guarani #terere #ipora
Sometimes, achieving large climate goals seems continually out of reach. But it's important to remember that you can work steadily towards big, systemic changes through small, actionable goals. How are you helping spur climate action in your community? #ClimateActionNow
