I wish more people stopped and thought about how a conflict which been going on for generations actually ends? Clue. It isn't by dropping more bombs and killing more people.

Thomas Hunt Morgan was born #OTD in 1866.

He was an American evolutionary biologist, geneticist, embryologist, and science author who won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine in 1933 for discoveries elucidating the role that the chromosome plays in heredity.

During his distinguished career, Morgan wrote 22 books and 370 scientific papers. As a result of his work, "Drosophila" became a major model organism in contemporary genetics. via @wikipedia

We could sequester CO2 by “re-greening” arid lands, plant scientists say

https://www.eurekalert.org/news-releases/1001623

ahem, I think that 1) desert ecologists will want to have a word, and 2) once you've regreened the land, others will want to "develop" it for their uses, so it may end up under asphalt etc like the rest of the planet?

I would be ok with regreening land that has desertified recently eg due to anthropogenic change.
