EU scraps plans to reduce pesticide use by 50%. Disappointing lack of leadership here. The 50% target had flaws, but was needed to drive the kind of reductions we need to see. Sad to see it scrapped entirely not reworked. www.politico.eu/article/ursu...

A lab team spent the pandemic lockdown studying thousands of photos of ant faces (and discussed their findings at #EntSoc23)
sciencenews.org
Ant face patterns like swirls and stubble might have practical value
Reviewing thousands of ant photos hints that facial surface patterns might offer benefits, like structural support or abrasion protection.

I have a postdoc position in Landscape Ecology 🧪🌍 Please RP #BES2023 on identifying how surrounding landscape composition and historical management influence rates of plant community change and occurrence, today and in the future. Collaboration with CEH in UK. See alt text www.su.se/english/abou...
9 aerial photos of landscape change from 1945 to today 
The project focuses on how rapidly and to what extent plant communities change depends surrounding landscape composition and habitat change over time. It is a cross-disciplinary project between community ecology and geography. The long-term goal is to understand how we avoid local species extinction where there are time lags because of historical landscape change and other global drivers
By using an unique re-survey data set from the UK it is possible to explore and systematically test hypotheses about how landscapes over time influence plant community change. Historical maps and aerial photographs will be used to determine habitat patterns and change in specific geographical location to investigate the possibility for developing methods to quantify ecologically important aspects of landscape history. The postdoc will work within the team of ECSTATIC project with collaboration with CEH in Lancaster university in the UK.

I new the biofuel debate but I had no idea of the scale of it 😦 tl;dr: the US produces Biofuel on an area equivalent to the *surface of the UK*, covering 10% of the fuel demand. If photovoltaik was insatlled on 1/12th of that area, it could power an all-electric US Car fleet 😲
open.substack.com
Biofuels: the US could switch to electric cars and solar power on just a fraction of the land
Biofuels could be making climate change worse, not better. There's a way to put this land to good use.
