Huge shout out to MPP @tedhsu for advocating for Ontario's universities at Queen's Park! Thank you for presenting the petitions from Queen's university faculty and students. #onpoli

Colleges and universities across Ontario are facing cuts. Today, I met with Queen's students & heard about how funding cuts affect their critical research. Last week, I presented a petition urging the province to increase post-secondary funding in line with their own blue-ribbon panel.

The downfall of #Chemosphere - journal removed from Clarivate’s Web of Science for “failing to meet editorial quality criteria”. #ecotox
thelabandfield.bsky.social
Farewell, Chemosphere! Honestly, between this and Science of the Total Environment (and some increasing concerns about Marine Pollution Bulletin & Environmental Pollution) there's a real market for a society-driven not-for-profit published pollution journal retractionwatch.com/2024/12/18/j...
Journal that published viral study on black plastic removed from major index
Chemosphere, the Elsevier title which in September published an article on “unexpected exposure to toxic flame retardants in household items” such as black plastic cooking utensils, has been remove…

Wow! So much to dig into here for #ecotox scientists concerned about proposed releases of industrial wastewaters from the Canadian #oilsands. Thanks for sharing @vandermeuleni.bsky.social

Hot off the presses, ~3400 pages on modelled oil sands tailings release scenarios from Alberta Environment & Parks 🤯. This is going to take a hot minute to digest and understand.

With this much time and effort put towards it, releases must be in the near future

Isabelle Côté was part of a team of 4 marine scientists from 3 academic generations on a rowboat with 2 tiny sleeping cabins crossing 1 entire ocean. Check out this incredible tale of their journey as told to me by @redlipblenny & crew for @NatureCareers www.nature.com/articles/d41...
