I show my students in class some ways I use Wikipedia for chemistry (molecular masses, pKa values, info on isotopes, etc.). Using the A.I. answer on a google search contradicts the numbers I get on Wikipedia regularly and, looking up the differences, Wikipedia is always the correct one of the two.

“Scientists should stop trying to be neutral and instead embrace their values,”says a group of top climate scientists, including @katharinehayhoe.com. The neutrality myth is harming the reputation of science right when we need it most.” #ClimateCrisis Science isn’t neutral. It’s science.

New analysis: 0.25% of 2025 Bluesky posts contained citations to research...while only 0.000006% of X/Twitter posts did. In raw numbers, X still has 2x the research-based posts that Bluesky does (though they are harder to find): but it took Twitter 10 years to get there vs just 2 years for Bluesky

Globally, 80% of people want their countries to take stronger climate action, and over half think about climate change daily or weekly. Far from being split, humanity is largely united on wanting to do more. But how can we help move the needle? Find out: go.wri.org/climate-choi...

Covid was a wasted opportunity. During lockdown the climate of earth drastically improved, outdated work practices were uprooted & people had time for their own lives. It's a shame none of that continued.

There will come a day when complaints about the carbon tax will seem quaint compared to the increase in property damage and insurance costs associated with more common extreme weather events. You may dodge a bullet but your insurance rates have to cover those who didn't.
