BFFs (2023)

🚨 Cool new project alert 🚨

WE- you, me, everyone- need to work together to get important science messages out to people.

We're in an all-hands-on-deck moment here.

We've learned the hard way that talking to each other on social media about these problems, while very important, is insufficient to get CORRECT information to a critical mass of people.

That's why, if you ask me, it's time to hit the street.

4 artists & 3 scientists collaborated on these posters. We hope YOU will put them out in your community. Each poster comes w/info about each topic.

Where should you put these posters?

Community Bulletin Boards

Classrooms

Your street-facing window

Wooden street poles

ETC

Here's who worked on this project:

Alright now go buy some posters and put them in the public space. I'd give them to you for free but uhhhh I'm broke and can't afford to. We're making them as cheap as we can.

These posters are printed to be put into the world. Pin them to a community bulletin board. Tape them to your window Post them in your class

I’ve never made a meme before, but everyone is raving about this angler fish so I decided to add in my input as a bioecologist 🧫
