Morning folks, time for my first Mastodon thread (!)
Ahead of the #midterms tomorrow, I want to talk about the tragic politicisation of science in the US.
It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when the Republicans became the anti-science party, but the process probably began in the 1980s, when the Christian right first emerged as a major force in conservative American politics.
Since then, the journey has been smooth and swift, and there is now a stunning partisan divide on confidence in science 😥
@pks absolutely! Learning practices for data handling, metadata & its importance, & basic statistical understanding go a long way.
Hi all, just getting started here after leaving that other app. If you like native fish biology, river ecosystems, or don’t like light pollution, give me a follow and suggest others I should follow! #fishbiology #lightpollution #urbanecology #riverecology
