A Nature study tracked 20,000 Americans for decades. Very conservative respondents died of internal causes at 1.14% higher rates than very liberal ones — after controlling for age, income, race, geography. by @daylightatheism

The Trump administration is tearing up 900 deep-sea instruments that took a decade to install and $370 million to build — scrapping the world's most advanced ocean monitoring network to save $48m/year. Real-time data on AMOC stability, marine heat waves, ocean chemistry, commercial fisheries? Gone. Congress twice voted to save it. They did it anyway by bureaucratic fiat through the NSF. No, not budget management, this is deliberate science vandalism — blinding ourselves to the ocean systems that regulate global climate, because the results were inconvenient.

"Combatting science denialism depends on community-level collaborations, not individuals. In particular, experts need to be supported by academic and research institutions, policymakers, and journalists." - New paper: science denial, insect apocalypse and biodiversity loss, by @manusaunders on the Ecology is Not a Dirty Word blog.

Something that seems like it's gone under the radar is #PBS shutting down their #deia program and firing the program management. This is an infuriating and disappointing move by PBS to choose #compliance in advance rather than #defiance. Every inch we give to the #fascists is an inch we may never get back. Hold strong and #resist. The #resistance is having an effect, #muskrat and co are not invincible and your efforts matter.
Please call your local station and send a message to PBS headquarters. Tell them you are unhappy with their decision to support an illegal #coup of #hate, #violence, and #sciencedenial #sciencedenialism. Media needs to remain independent and unafraid of #fascism, something the big media #corporations have seemingly forgotten.

"Getting accurate information across in the face of this science denialism is something of a minefield, as there is evidence that attempts to correct misinformation may backfire, further entrenching the beliefs of science deniers instead. In their paper, Schmid and Betsch present some good news and some bad: rebutting misinformation reduces the ensuing level of science denialism, but not enough to completely counter the effect of the original exposure to misinformation.
Denialism is not skepticismSchmid and Betsch make a point of emphasizing that science denialism is a universe away from a healthy skepticism. In fact, skepticism of existing results is what drives research to refine and overturn existing paradigms. Denialism, the authors write, is 'dysfunctional' skepticism 'driven by how the denier would like things to be rather than what he has evidence for.'
Because this denialism springs from motivated reasoning, science advocates are scrambling to understand how to debunk misinformation in a way that motivates their target audience to accept it. Schmid and Betsch focused on strategies to counter misinformation as it is being delivered during a debate, focusing on two possible approaches: correcting misinformation and laying bare the rhetorical techniques that are being used to obfuscate the truth."

"Bees don't waste time telling flies that honey tastes better than crap."
It's a phrase I've seen often in response to science denialism, but it's even more fitting when you realize bees work to benefit their communities while flies just create hordes of diseased offspring to become a problem to the world.
Be a bee, not a fly.
