​Sharing our excitement - life is too short not too!

Responding to our pandemic

1/12/2021

 
Picture
Well, we're certainly in remarkable times and the way we engage with each other may never quite be the same. We acknowledge the extreme damage that COVID-19 is causing in so many lives, and rather than bury our head in the sand (even though we study groundwater!), we think now is an important time to step back, reassess what is truly important, and reflect on how the pandemic should change what we do as a research group by:
  • asking  should the pandemic change what we ‘do’ as sustainability scientists? and how does the coronavirus crisis compare to the global groundwater crisis?
  • collaborating with colleagues to support emergency remote teaching in hydrology by developing a compendium of videos, websites, games, and articles;
  • initiating solidarity building exercises among our research network, including a sharing of our Roses, Buds, and Thorns of our working-from-home experiences and a curated   #pandemicplaylist; and
  • trying to ignore the   coronavirus-induced productivity pressure.
Stay well everyone.
