This week:
• Climate change in the curriculum
• Increasingly divergent subvariants
• Cell-cultured meat
• RSV vaccines are coming
• Generative AI (...didn't write this, but it might one day)
Here's What You Can Do:
• Teachers can't teach without understanding the material. Check out ClimeTime (https://www.climetime.org/) and the CLEAN (https://cleanet.org/index.html) project for free, vetted resources for educators K-12.
• Bring everyone you know to get their bivalent boosters, bring masks back (they can help defend against the flu and RSV too), and improve your air quality wherever you can
• Our friends at Climate Tech VC put together a free deep-dive on methane emissions from cows. Read it (https://www.ctvc.co/ruminating-on-methane-emissions/) and get up to speed.
• Join our friends at Pod Save America to call, text, knock on doors, and vote (https://votesaveamerica.com/) for people who will fight for the 75% of Americans who don't have access to paid leave through an employer
• Check out Bleeding Edge AI (https://bleedingedge.ai/) for a cool timeline for developments as they happen, and/or Ben's Bites (https://bensbites.beehiiv.com/subscribe?ref=5286465a33), a free, digestible, pithy email update with all things generative AI
