Carbon is the work of the devil.

Last Friday, during a class about the short and long term organic #carbon cycle, a student raised his hand:

"So, 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons...", 666....carbon must be the work of the devil."

Maybe this can help us sell carbon neutrality to religious conservatives.

@HexesofVexes Last year students were blocking that very bridge to protest the university's response to Israel's violence in Palestine. They should have know that they were being accompanied by this paleo-force of resistance.

 

This little plant, identified as Equisetum arvense by a colleague, appears to have grown right through one of the metal posts of the bridge of Amsterdam University College (#AUC #UvA #VU).

I think it should be the mascotte of all students at Science Park:

"Those who persevere against all odds find the light at the end of the tunnel."
