Invasive species proliferating in Valais is encroaching on natural reserves and posing a biodiversity threatAlessio Perrone (The Guardian)
But female scientist Eunice Foote published a paper - 3yrs earlier - demonstrating how atmospheric water vapor & CO2 affected solar heating. She theorized that heat trapping gases in Earth’s atmosphere warm its #climate.
Tyndall was widely read. And Foote, being a woman, wasn't even permitted to present her own work.

The world is interconnected - oceans, food, #climate, energy, health, security, biodiversity & on.
When more of us, all around the world, consider how the pieces fit together & influence each other, we’ll be better equipped to meet global challenges.

Enter cultivated meat, which doesn’t come from a chicken, pig or cow on the farm. Instead it’s grown in a lab directly from animal cells as a more sustainable alternative, requiring less water, fertilizer, land & energy with fewer emissions.
