We suggest that publications have been trying to show youhttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🌈" title="Regenbogen" aria-label="Emoji: Regenbogen">, but it might just be:https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🟡" title="Gelber Kreis" aria-label="Emoji: Gelber Kreis">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🟢" title="Grüner Kreis" aria-label="Emoji: Grüner Kreis">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🔵" title="Blauer Kreis" aria-label="Emoji: Blauer Kreis">
So why should you care? Well, no matter who you are, scientist, non-scientist, squirrel, 2020 has made it very clear that it is SO important to get the whole picture.
