‘It is the scariest of times’: Margaret Atwood on defying Trump, banned books – and her score-settling memoir

Fantastic analysis. Unfortunately, most election campaigns are run like high school popularity contests, and policy is developed by sampling the Vibe-Cloud, not through the use of data and reality-based analysis. Politics needs deep change.
Not only are wildfires caused by climate change, new research links the heatwaves that cause them to oil companies active in Newfoundland and Labrador, columnist Angela Antle writes in an open letter to N.L. Premier Tony Wakeham

Signals from the plant cell wall help to orchestrate growth, reproduction and immune function. Can harnessing this molecular cross talk help in creating better crops?
