1/12: Great article/podcast on the importance of evolution education (pK-higher ed), not just for understanding the world around us, but also for structuring the education process itself.

2/12: After checking out the article & podcast, educators should review the resources at @GlobalESD, geared to help support sustainability education initiatives that connect concepts in human evolution, behavioral ecology, & sustainability science: sites.google.com/view/globalesd…
3/12: Then take a look at some of the articles/resources available at @tvolmag & @EvoInstitute, including the Education Initiative (evolution-institute.org/projects/educa…), Education Through an Evolutionary Lens (evolution-institute.org/wp-content/upl…), and Prosocial World (prosocial.world).
1/3: Should have shared this yesterday for #DarwinDay, from @NCSE.
Because evolutionary theory impacts & underlies so much of our lives - how we practice medicine, how we build our environments,...

3/3: Maybe even a bit more than a basic understanding.
It's not hard to argue many of our current problems are at least partially the result of ignorance of evolutionary theory and it's applications to our day-to-day.

1/9: A few years ago I picked this book by @LyandaHaupt up in the bookshop haven of Hay-on-Wye in southeast Wales, but have only just now read it. For me the author really hit home how #Darwin was able to construct the theory of evolution, arguably...

2/9: one of the most important scientific theories we have, through extensive observations of the “natural” world. While some degree of modest experimentation was involved (though that too was rooted in nature) it was his meticulous observations of nature,...
3/9: his closeness to nature, that inspired his vision of the tree of life and the mechanistic details of evolution. It’s also what led him to the realization that humans aren’t separate from the natural world.
This realization also contributed to...
