@naomioreskes.bsky.socialthanks for posting, but... if it is accelerating then it can't be a straight line, n'est-ce pas?
@naomioreskes.bsky.socialthanks!
@naomioreskes.bsky.socialIn honor of Banned Books Week, I think we should all to buy and read at least one banned book.

@naomioreskes.bsky.socialThis is demoralizing. I love science as much as anyone--and have spent a good part of my career defending it--but if we (should have) learned anything from the Covid-19 pandemic, it's that natural science without humanistic perspectives often fails to hit its mark.
@naomioreskes.bsky.socialI have to share this: A student came to office hours today, and said: "I am not worried about grades, I just want to learn." Would that happened everyday!

@naomioreskes.bsky.socialWant to know how big Ag is distorting our food systems? Watch this great video of the Real Organic Conference last weekend at Churchtown Dairy. Plus: without taking a stand on raw milk safety, I can now attest to the fact that it tastes better.

@naomioreskes.bsky.socialExactly. Or why we just send our students home and tell them to write alone. :)
@naomioreskes.bsky.socialAgreed. This is bizarre. In my own career I have taught reading, writing, speaking, listening, observing, documenting... & probably some things I am not thinking of here. All of which I think helps my students to learn to think. plus: I know I learn to think also by cooking and baking. Weird.
@naomioreskes.bsky.socialDo you study disinformation? Now there is a peer-reviewed journal, dedicated to understanding it.

@naomioreskes.bsky.socialInterested in flock surveillance ?
