❓ Want to know what it can be like and what all you can learn when joining a big scientific conference even without being a scientist yourself? If your answer is "Yes", then check out the blog post linked below, written by our team member Bärbel Winkler while attending this year's General Assembly of the European Geosciences Union (EGU) held in Vienna and online from May 4 to 8.
Oral sessions Bärbel attended focused on ...
➡️ best practices for science communication and outreach
➡️ how non-specialist audiences can learn about scientific topis
➡️ how students in different age groups can be introduced to science
➡️ the ethical, social, and cultural responsibilities geoscientists hold beyond pure researchShort courses provided input about ..
➡️ the intersection of science and public policy
➡️ what science diplomacy is about
➡️ how to create an engaging short presentation
➡️ how misinformation can be countered and science defended➡️ A Union Symposium focused on how human responses to climate change are shaped not only by scientific evidence but also by moral values, psychological dynamics, cultural identities, and religious beliefs.
➡️ A Great Debate about Geoengineering raised the question whether these concepts are actually a distraction from the urgent need for climate adaptation and mitigation. Some significant ethical fears were raised, particularly that large-scale testing might occur on Indigenous or disenfranchised lands without consent.
The whole week provided a lot of "food for thought" and the blog post shows that!

The last few days have put me into a prolonged, slow burning state of freak out. Fun.
My friend’s father passed away on Monday. My father went into the hospital on Tuesday. No details on either situation will be forthcoming. We just got clobbered by a thunderstorm which, it turns out, was rough enough to knock out the power in the hospital. The backup generators kicked in a second later, but woah.
I am planning to go to the hospital after work tonight. I need to make dinner first but then I’ll go for a quick visit before visiting hours end. Tomorrow morning is the funeral. I’ll go to the hospital afterwards. How’s that for a tough day? The last few days have been bad, but tomorrow… woah.
On less important (re: not important at all) topics, I have one more episode of The Umbrella Academy’s final season to watch. I strongly suspect that once I finish that final episode I will immediately start a rewatch of the entire series from season one episode one. I think that is going to happen.
Earlier today I was looking at Threads (the twitter alternative social network made by the same assholes who make instagram and bookfayce which begs the question why the fuck am I giving this new social network site the time of day) and I posted that musically speaking, today is a Porcupine Tree kinda day (from a mental health standpoint, of course… meaning heavy and complicated and confusing if you’re not paying close attention). TWELVE MINUTES LATER I got a notification that the Porcupine Tree instagram account had been ported to Threads. They haven’t posted anything yet but I guess I should say you’re welcome?
I don’t know what the dad situation is going to be like this weekend but I do know that Bellana, my step daughter, is coming over for a visit. All the bad, scary stuff going on feels a little more bearable when the kids come by. I am really looking forward to seeing how she did at her conference this week. I want all the sciency details.
Speaking of science, from a nutritional standpoint I screwed up yesterday. I spent the whole day at the hospital with Dad and when I left the house I forgot to take my pill case with me. I took my breakfast vitamin pills before I left, and took my lunch vitamin pills when I got home for dinner. I was going to take my dinner vitamin pills before I went to sleep, but I fell asleep earlier than expected and missed that dose. Dummy. Note to self: bring the friggin’ pill case tomorrow. Dumb ass.
What else? Word from the hospital this afternoon is that Dad is starting to show early signs of coming out of whatever was wrong. My fingers and toes and eyes are all firmly crossed. Again, I am not sharing details beyond a small hint of optimism. Enjoy it while you can.
Okay, Robert. Stop stressing and get back to work. You have stuff to do. Do it.
