Let's raise children who can name plants and animals, not celebrities and brands!
By prioritizing a nature-oriented education — alongside other forms of learning — we can raise a generation of individuals who are not only well-informed about the world but who are also motivated to protect, preserve and nurture nature for future generations!
Happy birthday to Danish #seismologist Inge Lehmann (1888 – 1993) who demonstrated that the Earth's core is not a single molten sphere, but contained an inner solid core, in ‘36. She was a pioneer #womanInScience, a brilliant seismologist & lived to be 105.
As she first postulated, the #earth has roughly 3 equal concentric sections: mantle, liquid outer core & solid inner core. 🧵1/n
May 12 is International Women in Mathematics Day. Danish seismologist Inge Lehman developed a mathematical model based on her research on seismic waves, demonstrating that #Earth has a solid inner core 🌍
