🚨 Cool new project alert 🚨

WE- you, me, everyone- need to work together to get important science messages out to people.

We're in an all-hands-on-deck moment here.

We've learned the hard way that talking to each other on social media about these problems, while very important, is insufficient to get CORRECT information to a critical mass of people.

That's why, if you ask me, it's time to hit the street.

4 artists & 3 scientists collaborated on these posters. We hope YOU will put them out in your community. Each poster comes w/info about each topic.

Where should you put these posters?

Community Bulletin Boards

Classrooms

Your street-facing window

Wooden street poles

ETC

Here's who worked on this project:

Alright now go buy some posters and put them in the public space. I'd give them to you for free but uhhhh I'm broke and can't afford to. We're making them as cheap as we can.

Komodo dragons have iron-tipped teeth, new study shows

Komodo dragons, the world’s largest species of lizard, have iron-tipped teeth that help them to rip their prey apart, according to new research. The metal is concentrated in the cutting edge and tips of their curved, serrated teeth, staining them orange, scientists wrote in a paper published Wednesday in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution. Komodo dragons are native to Indonesia and weigh around 80 kilograms (176 pounds) on average. They eat almost any kind of meat and are known as deadly predators...

Lovely Spotted Gar, at the Beijing Zoo Aquarium.

New York resident and social worker Emily Feiner being forcibly removed from Congressman Mike Lawler’s town hall for having the *audacity* to ask, “What’s your red line? When will you defend the Constitution you swore to uphold?”

One question and she was accosted.

This is Trump’s America, where you’re not even allowed to ask basic questions of your representatives.
