One of my personal favourites. A figure we did in Chapter 1 of #IPCC #ClimateReport showing the five considered scenarios, the timings peaking and halving CO2 emissions as well as when they reach net-zero. Together with @ed_hawkins beautiful stripes.

The new IPCC 6th Assessment Report (AR6) provides an unprecedented degree of clarity about the future of our planet, and the need to reduce – and ultimately eliminate – our emissions of greenhouse gases.
In this thread I take a look at some key findings from the report: 1/27
Hey y’all, feel free to tune in Thursday morning for my talk at #ABS2021, or watch it whenever you like on my website: imranrazik.github.io/Media.h…. In short, we found that short-term proximity can promote the development of new, long-term grooming relationships in vampire bats :)

The death of a vampire bat 19 days after giving birth presented @OhioState scientists with an unexpected chance to observe a rare event: a female bat’s adoption of an unrelated baby. Reported today in @royalsociety #OpenScience bit.ly/3tJMHqz

I think that simple, unambiguous statements like this - from institutions and societies - really help make science more inclusive. Silence isn't neutral, it pushes people out. Thanks.
It’s been a long time coming! Big thanks to @MariaSagotR for her amazing mentorship throughout my undergrad~

People have died in the ER while waiting for a bed. There aren't enough ventilators. This entire hospital will soon be dedicated to the coronavirus.
