I feel very lucky to have known Prof. Trevor Burnard. His kindness, warmth, and vast expertise shone through in every conversation- and his early support and encouragement was instrumental in getting Equator off the ground. He will be greatly missed.

New Blog! Have you heard about @QUARTETnary, the new card game all about geological time? Creator @iris_van_zelst tells us why she created this awesome game and how she collaborated with a chemist and an illustrator (@drlperezdiaz!) to make it happen!

Passionate about geoscience? Want to do some quick online outreach? Please volunteer for our French Geology Exchange! Chat (in English) to a group of French students about a geoscience theme you have experience in-the chat is online on Teams or Zoom, at a time that works for you!
Our virtual French Geology Exchange is BACK! We are looking for geoscientists to do a one-off online outreach interview in February/March 2024! If your expertise fits one/more themes below & you'd be keen to chat geoscience with a group of students studying English, get in touch!
