TotalEnergies abandons US offshore wind, will invest $1 billion in fossil fuel projects
The United States and French ‌energy major TotalEnergies said on Monday they would redirect nearly $1 billion from offshore wind leases to U.S. oil and natural gas production.

I’m looking for a review paper on different gps tracking methods and tech for wildlife. If you published such review or know of a paper discussing this topic please let me know ⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️⬇️🌎

Interesting. Based on these comments, it seems that viewpoint is still entrenched in university setting. It will change if we encourage more discussion about careers outside academia.

Good for you for knowing what you want. There are many opportunities outside the traditional university setting. Best of luck finding something.

Yes, there is evidence that bats are foraging offshore, but none that do this exclusively.

Yes definitely. The more exposure students get on non-academia careers the better.

I went from finishing my PhD, straight to the private sector and have thoroughly enjoyed my job for the last 19 years. There are so many opportunities outside academia, but I agree, non-academic #careers are not really discussed inside of academia. #AcademicSky 🧪

I'm always interested to hear what other tools people are using, and I'm curious what your writing workflow is. What apps are you using? Are you writing your articles directly in the Ghost editor or using another writing app like IA Writer or Ulysses?

We saw lots of butterflies, moths, and dragonflies out at sea. There’s definitely a lot of insect activity out there.

I can’t hear you: Are restaurants getting louder?
It’s a restaurant owner’s dream: a lively ambience with delicious food, crowded tables, vibrant music and buzzy energy. But is it a diner’s nightmare?

This could help offset cuts to research funding. Scientists still need to get paid for their work though.

Definitely! It's a great way to study animals on such large-scales that would not have been possible prior to the smartphone.

In short, listen to their concerns about #vaccines (without dismissing them), empathize, and offer your personal experience. Help someone make their own decision, rather than telling them what to do.🧪💉

Totally agree on the amount of time spent on proposals and grants. It dominates my job and they are only likely to get more competitive given fewer future opportunities. Also, sorry to see you leaving the Ghost platform. Any reasons on the switch to Substack?
