Honestly, there must be a point at which actors, musicians etc reach a fork in the road whereby they can decide to use their fame and influence for the good of the wider community or simply to bolster their own egos and bank balances.

As an Earth scientist, I have to speak up here. It is possible that climate change contributed, but we shouldn’t jump to conclusions until the studies have been done. Glaciers calve even without climate change and these have catastrophic consequences regardless.

Has anyone else noticed a seemingly coordinated campaign on Facebook to discredit the existence of bird flu? I've been seeing a lot of comments on public posts and news updates claiming that there's no such thing as bird flu, birds can't get the flu, and it's all an over-reaction.
