It is important to practice being critical of things we want to be true and things we want to be untrue. Try everyday to dig into one piece of information you see/hear/read and get some hard data to understand it.

Some uplifting climate news for once! Does this mean it's larger than The Great Barrier Reef? And how did it take that spot? Did it grow to be larger than the Great barrier reef, or did the latter shrink?
Good news for once!
We’ve found a 300-year-old coral that’s so big it’s visible from space. It’s now considered the world’s largest. Best of all: it’s not yet harmed by climate change & global warming.
It’s being called a beacon of hope. Let it also be a call to action! #DoSomething 🧵

My word of the day (and personal recommendation) is ‘snerdling’ (18th century): nestling cosily beneath the covers and holding off the day a little longer.
