I’m a biologist.
I consult scientists (GIS experts and climate experts) in the geography department at a prestigious-as-fuck university A LOT and they’re in demand.

You realize that most climate change studies emanate from geography departments right? And that geographers frequently collaborate with sociology, anthropology, archaeology and history departments on digs and archival research? And that Trevor Paglen, a geographer in the UC system, was the first person to use long…

It's something like a $65 billion subsidy to employers who pay a low wage. Not that I think it's a bad idea— just, for it not to be a subsidy, it needs to be combined with a high minimum…
