    Nouveau calculateur individuel de #empreintecarbone 4.2t - en transition, mais pas encore assez bien . 33% sont les services sociétaux (1.3t) ajouté pour tout le monde. Le reste est à parts similaires du au logement, la nourriture et les déplacements. Le questionnaire est assez détaillé, je trouve juste difficile a estimer les km voiture et le tau de remplissage. Et les repas sont sur une semaine, mais si on mange la viande qu&amp;#39;une fois par mois, on ne peu pas le mettre. https://www.le...

    Aaaaahhhhhh ! One of my favourite papers, which is about the efficient use of water by plants, has just been cited in this sentence &amp;quot;[...] as stress-induced flower or seed abortion is typically irreversible (Brendel, 2021[...]&amp;quot;. There is zero information in my paper about flower or seed abortion.

    #AcademicChatter Hello, fellow academic chatters. I&amp;#39;m an experimental scientist.
