I won an astronomy communication and public education award from the Canadian Astronomical Society, for yelling about satellite pollution! I'm quite honoured, and now obligated to continue yelling.
Which I was going to do anyway, but it's extremely nice to know that my university (who gave me a public education award last year) and my professional society both think I am good at yelling about this and should keep doing it.
