Nature loss is one of the greatest challenges we face, but there is hope. We’ve joined with choreographer Sadeck Waff and students from Bird College to perform a "human murmuration”, an inspiration for leaders working together to save nature at #COP15. urgentconversation.org/?source=rspb
Moominpappa, fresh off boat from Australia (isn't that the wrong way round?) goes for a stroll around town & decides to rid Cambridge of its Kaiju problem using the Shrinky Dinky from the @dinky_doors lab. (Poor sound effect by me, sorry. As ever, need to redo without shadows.)
In deepest darkest Devon, I’ve found what I think is a fragment of Atlantic hazelwood: a type of temperate rainforest & a very rare habitat, more usually found in western Scotland or Ireland. Let me tell you a bit about it… 🧵1/n

Ecological + social justice in action. The good folk of Langholm are £10k short of their £150k crowdfunding target to double the size of @TarrasValleyNR, with only days left to go. Can you chip in? gofundme.com/f/langholm-moo… @RobGMacfarlane @GeorgeMonbiot @ChrisGPackham @RewildingB

Neither Oxford nor Cambridge, both famous for cycling, feature in the list of cycle-friendly cities. Why? because both are still dangerous, polluted and wrecked by motor traffic. Their cyclists, however numerous, remain second-class citizens.
New research reveals how reintroduction of just 20 key species could boost biodiversity by restoring large mammal populations across swathes of the Earth. Researchers also identified priority ecoregions where this would be highly feasible. bit.ly/3GProJC Via @unepwcmc
They think the rules don’t apply to them. Speaking of which, what’s really going on with Gov’s plan to ‘overhaul’ our #HumanRightsAct?
It's good to see recognition of Buddhism's influence on the West. The article identifies this with various worthy developments. But what is the distinctively Buddhist element, and how much more does Buddhism have to offer?theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

The anthropomorphisation of AI systems leads us to discount both the agency and responsibility of their designers, and our own agency, as individuals, communities and societies. Language matters. We succumb to tech inevitablism and fail to act to shape our future.
AI service designers encourage this anthropomorphisation. Systems are designed to respond as if they are sentient beings with their own agency.
Absolutely loving this zinger from @ZeerakTalat and friends about the dangers of anthropomorphizing AI systems -- it does an amazing job at explaining all of the risks that come with it! A must read 🤗 arxiv.org/pdf/2305.09800…
Guidance is less about avoiding individual words and more about being careful about their implications, such as that AI systems need agency to be harmful. If you've made it this far, I'd love to hear your thoughts about how we should and shouldn't be talking about data and AI.
It's the end of my 12th year of a picture a day and I thought I'd pull together my favourites from 2022. If you have a spare minute (it's about five actually) I'd love it if you made the time to watch. Happy New Year everyone. Thanks Rob Jackson youtu.be/jnSsijd_qlM

One for #throwbackthursday: a few years back I stood outside Wells Cathedral for a full day and photographed the impact of the light on the front facade. I was amazed at the outcome - at how a single entity could morph and change under the changing light.

Tweeps, this paper will be open access but it's taking a bit of time to put that in place. Delighted you like the pretty picture. Note that prevalence of Omicron in UK is currently 1 in 15 whereas this pic assumes 1 in 100 (ie it's even riskier currently).
Our new paper on quantifying the risk of transmission of SARS-CoV-2 in different environmental conditions. Picture shows risks for Omicron variant at 1% prevalence (lower than currently in US & UK). TL;DR: avoid the gym, choir practice & stuffy nightclub. pubs.acs.org/doi/pdf/10.102…
