It's #WorldMentalHealthDay 🌍

#DidYouKnow Healthy ecosystems support healthy minds?

IPBES #NexusAssessment confirms: biodiversity and functioning ecosystems improve mental health. Access to biodiverse environments facilitates recovery from stress, depression & other health-related conditions.🏡🧪
An upward view of a lush forest canopy with tall trees stretching toward the sky. The image shows numerous straight, tall tree trunks with textured bark and vibrant green foliage overhead. The trees appear to be mature hardwoods, creating a dense, natural cathedral-like ceiling of leaves. Text overlaid on the image reads "NATURE HEALS" and "Biodiversity supports mental health" in dark text. A smaller text block from the IPBES Nexus Assessment describes the relationship between nature and health. The IPBES logo appears in the top right corner. The photograph emphasizes the height and density of the forest, with sunlight filtering through the leaves creating a natural green glow throughout the scene.

Ayer tuve comparecencia en la Comisión de Transición Ecológica del Congreso. Sus señorías de Vox intoxicaron el debate con bulos negacionistas. Esta fue mi respuesta. Y de paso, una reflexión sobre su falso patriotismo al servicio de Trump 👇👇👇

The image is an artist's illustration of one model of the bright gamma-ray burst GRB 080319B.
The explosion appears highly beamed into two bipolar jets, with a narrow inner jet (white) surrounded by a wider outer jet (green).

🔭 Bricolage de ces derniers jours : PANOPTES 🤩 C'est un petit télescope automatisé pour détecter des étoiles variables. On le fabrique à Callista à l'EPFL 🇨🇭 mais c'est un projet international pour sensibiliser des élèves des pays du Sud Global aux sciences en leur faisant fabriquer et opérer 🧪
