Now we\u2019d like to expand the ESA blog in two ways.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">The importance of ecological science is becoming more apparent by the day as many of the world\u2019s current <a href=\"http:\/\/www.esajournals.org\/doi\/full\/10.1890\/070185\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>major crises<\/strong> <\/a>\u2014 climate change, invasive species, sustainable energy \u2014 deal with ecology. Accordingly, it\u2019s increasingly important to communicate our work to the public.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">Along that vein, we\u2019ll first expand on our current blog theme by including regular updates and summaries of ecology and ecologists in the news. So, if you read about ecological research in the mainstream media and it makes you excited (or curious, or disappointed, or inspired, or incensed\u2026), be sure to let EcoTone know at <a href=\"mailto:esablog@esa.org\">esablog@esa.org<\/a>. Better, yet, if your own research has received attention in the media or in some public outlet, we want to hear from you!<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">And second, in the age of \u201cweb 2.0\u201d, EcoTone will be full of photos, audio, video and other media that help illustrate who we are and what we do.<span> <\/span>If you have a thought-provoking example of ecology in the news and can demonstrate it with media, please send it our way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">As always, we welcome comments and respectful, open discussion. Please add us to your bookmarks and check back regularly for updates.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"color: #000000\">Cheers, and thanks for reading <strong><span style=\"color: #339966\">EcoTone<\/span><\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\"><em>Christine Buckley, EcoTone moderator<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><a href=\"https:\/\/esa.org\/esablog_old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/11\/ecotone-logo.bmp\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-31 alignright\" style=\"float: right\" title=\"ecotone-logo_s\" src=\"https:\/\/esa.org\/esablog_old\/wp-content\/uploads\/2008\/11\/ecotone-logo_s.bmp\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><span style=\"color: #000000\">Hear ye, hear ye, friends of ecology!
