GSA members are invited to comment on the draft of major revisions to a position statement: Diversity in the Geosciences. The comment period runs through 15 Aug. 2023.
GSA Council recently approved minor revisions to three position statements: Removing Gender Barriers to Career Progression in the Geosciences, Promoting Earth Science Literacy for Informed Public Decision Making, and Critical Mineral Resources. Council also voted to continue to endorse the Seismological Society of America and the American Geophysical Union position statement, “The Capability to Monitor the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT) Should be Expanded, Completed, and Sustained.”
