Is the Greenland threat an attempt to break up NATO? Trump tried to leave NATO but was stopped. Is he now trying to get kicked out, then exploiting EU internal divisions to split Europe up between Russia and U.S. along cold war borders?
I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.
Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

A Chocolate Orange has doubled in price – and got smaller. Why?
From Quality Street to Toblerone to the Terry’s classic, festive treats are becoming more of a luxury – and it’s not just down to the price of cocoa

Radentscheid: Bürgerentscheid gewonnen – und dann passiert erstmal nichts
In vielen Städten stimmte die Bevölkerung für mehr Radinfrastruktur ab. Umgesetzt wurde dann jedoch wenig, kritisieren Initiatoren – und zweifeln an der Basisdemokratie.

Mal was neues mit der Bahn. Nachts um halb zwei einfach Mal eine halbe Stunde in Fulda im Bahnhof stehen, weil der Zugführer einen Fahrplan für die Schnellfahrstrecke braucht, damit wir die Verspätung aufholen können, die durch das Warten auf den Fahrplan verursacht wurde.

Yeah, no shit. In Germany, universities refuse to teach climate change except in specific degree programs because somehow it is still seen as a biophysical issue, not a social one.
Sheeeet🤯
"when asked “what proportion of climate scientists think that global warming is caused mostly by human activities?” - only 30% of middle-school & 45% of high-school science teachers selected the correct option of “81 to 100%."

Adaptation to climate change was meant to be the easy part: As easy as 1,2,3 - what will the climate be? what are the risks? do something to reduce the risk!
It is going to rain? Put on a coat and keep enjoying life!
Adaptation increasingly turns out to be much harder than emissions reduction!

Now reading - the conventional definition of adaptation as the process adjustment often ignores ambiguity from scales, justice, socio political realities and knowledge pluralisms.
Finally, some food for thought how we move away from a technocratic approach wich disregards people's needs.

Wondering: how do we apply strict ethics guidelines for GenAI use in research? Everyone knows what plagiarism is and we penalize it strictly.
But how do we recognize, validate and penalize unethical AI use? I.e. when can I flip someone off because of sending me unchecked AI outputs?

Thanks to GenAI, I now regularly have to go through lengthy reports which are well written but potentially contain hard to spot bullshit.
Extremely annoying that we can never know whether we are looking at actual content or are reduced to a procedural position in a bullshit mill.

Despite the benefits of agroforestry, cocoa landscapes in Ghana and Côte d’Ivoire remain dominated by full-sun and low-shade systems.
Average shade-tree cover is just 13%, far below the 20–40% recommended for climate resilience.

An den größeren Grenzübergängen kann man mit Glück gelangweilte Polizisten sehen, ansonsten sind die Grenzen wie sie sein sollten: offen und unsichtbar.
