Cutting food waste in the U.S. by 50% could be almost as beneficial to biodiversity as switching the entire U.S. population to a planet-conscious diet. See interview with @QuentinDRead about his research on creating a more #sustainable #food system: sesync.org/resources/inte…

Today, the radical right-wing supermajority on the US Supreme Court handed down its decision in West Virginia v. Environmental Protection Agency. To be clear- this is a shockingly disturbing decision that hobbles EPA's ability to reduce climate pollution.

@_doctormidnight @writerjoe126 @ExLeftForFriend @TylerHodgson04 @NBCNewYork So, you'd prefer a police state where people can be punished arbitrarily harshly without the government having to produce any proof that they committed crimes???

@WeAreRLadies When I was a "data scientist," probably 25%, now that I am a "statistician," probably 50% -- although I'd say >90% is part of data cleaning and processing pipelines that lead to statistical models, which a lot of people on this thread say counts as stats 😎
