๐๏ธ In my spare time I work in support of this local organization to protect & build homes for low-to-moderate income people
Proud to write this article in our regional news journal
Housing lands trusts won't solve the housing crunch alone, but they help lots

New science from the Washington Cascades show that the same forest treatments we use to reduce wildfire risk also hold more snow in our mountains
Fantastic science by TNC and University of Washington colleagues

๐ธ๐๐ธ It's World Frog Day and that gives me a chance to remember the critters that defined much of my career. Frogs are amphibians, a word that means "two lives" - one life in water and one on land - which means frogs are doubly impacted by environmental change
Also they're just neat

Check our preprint on building abundant housing and energy while protecting and restoring nature
Tough conversations but I'm glad someone like @sophielgilbert.bsky.social is having it!
Land is everything
Watching these changes where I grew up motivated me to become a conservation scientist
But I also see so many people struggling to afford housing and energy
This is why I study how conservationists can help rapidly build things we need while also protecting and restoring nature
Salmon still surprise us, despite being some of the best studied animals ๐ ๐
Salmon have complex juvenile migrations and use diverse habitats outside their natal watershed before entering the sea. What we conserve matters for recovery!

Can supporting masculinity help solve climate change and heal society?
Interesting lessons from this book & study. A new approach to masculinity and supporting boys/men may help heal society and the planet. Maybe a warmer version of masculinity can cool our planet and society #climate #masculinity

Excited to share our "conservation abundance" preprint, along with my co-author @maxlambert.bsky.social!

We think that the abundance movement is a conservation issue, and that conservation scientists can help ๐งช๐๐ฆ๐๏ธ๐.
