IT’S PUBLICATION DAY! (UK) I’m so excited to see this labour of love finally out in the world! How better to spend today than at an earthworm research conference 🪱 🧪 If you’re in the UK, THE WORLD BENEATH OUR FEET is in bookshops now! Coming soon to North America and EU. @hodderbooks.bsky.social

Every four years, the international earthworm research community gets together to exchange ideas. This time, we’ve taken over Wageningen for #ISEE13, and it’s been a blast! Here’s a few highlights, including my earthworm Macrophotography workshop 📸🪱 @pdejong.bsky.social @helenherself.bsky.social

Want to see billionaire brainwashing in action? Seven out of ten Brits are big fans of renewable energy and want to see lots more of it. But they think the majority of people DON’T support it. That disconnect isn’t an accident. 🧵

If someone tells you the CO2 is coming out of the sea, they try to fool you. We know exactly where it comes from and where it goes. We emit CO2, about half of that stays in the atmosphere, and a quarter each is taken up by oceans and forests. Measured facts! globalcarbonbudget.org/gcb-2025/

A December week between some final field work and presenting earthworm C balance results at the Swiss Geosciences Meeting. 🌲🧪🌍🪱

Wer nach dem Sturz des Diktators Assad sofort über Abschiebungen von Geflüchteten nach Syrien redet statt über Wiederaufbau, demokratische Regierungsbildung und Minderheitenschutz vor Ort, hat den politischen Weitblick einer durchschnittlichen Seegurke.

🎁Christmas came early at WSL: Our researchers unwrapped the wrapped tree on the WSL premises and collected its isotope-marked leaves for their research projects.🍁 More info in the how and why in our Instagram post: www.instagram.com/p/DC6fuQFoVb... @pdejong.bsky.social 📷 Philipp de Jong

Hi! I’m a Phd student in soil science and biogeochemistry studying organic matter cycling in forest soils. Also interested in all things isotopes. And I have a fable for earthworms 🪱!

Though crabs have evolved about 10 times, vertebrates have tried to become worms about 70 times. 🧪 📸Rhineura floridana, the Florida worm lizard, Nate Nazdrowicz
