I spent this week in two very different rooms, discussing the same looming failure.
You cannot buy 21st-century security with a 20th-century receipt. If we treat "National Security" and "Ecological Security" as separate line items, we fail at both.

EU defense spending is up 16%.
But a budget ignoring climate resilience is built on quicksand. Deterrence fails when troops are tied up in disaster relief.
Wed at @oenb.at, we debate the operational reality.
It isn't about emissions. It's about survival.

We define projects by the name of the pot where the money comes from, not by the problems they solve.
As I discussed with @danbanik.bsky.social this isn't just an administrative headache. It is a systemic failure.

If we drain resilience funding to buy tanks, we aren't saferโweโre just vulnerable in a different way.

Is your supply chain strategy prepared for the coming governance deficit?
Climate stress + weak institutions = commercial volatility.
Companies that win will treat resilience as an investment, not a reporting burden.

Can the world quit coal?
Nearly a third of all countries worldwide have pledged to phase out their unabated coal-burning power. But China and India are still adding coal plants โ for now.

But that simplification is also the mechanism for the platform's power. It forces you to distill your core idea.
Itโs what makes complex topics accessible to a global audience and provides a stage for new perspectives.

For researchers, TED talks are a specific kind of hard. We're trained to embrace nuance and complexity.
Here, you're forced to cut, simplify, and present over-rehearsed content. That process can feel inauthentic.

In a recent video Casey Neistat distinguishes between mandatory hardships and chosen hardships.
This talk was a chosen hardship. The key about a chosen challenge is you can quit at any time, which forces you to confront why you're doing it.

Yesterday, this philosophy was tested when I stepped onto the red dot at #TEDxMidAtlantic.
It was terrifyingโbright lights, a theatre full of dark silhouettes. Iโve never practiced a talk this much, or worked with a coach to train for one.
I did it. I froze once but recovered.

I've always believed in intentionally exposing myself to difficult situations. Public speaking. Pitching to publishers. Interviewing senior policymakers.
The reasoning is simple: If you don't try, you don't win. If you don't fail, you can't grow.

Vital debate at the Bled Strategic Forum on the nexus of #water, peace & #security.
My key message: We must treat water as the political issue it is. While climate change raises the stakes, conflict is not destiny. Evidence-based, preventive action can build pathways to peace.
