Nächste Woche Montag geht es weiter mit unserer Vortragsreihe zu neuen Moorlandschaften. Das wird dieses Mal sehr spannend, weil es um eine Frage geht, die auch viele in der Praxis Beteiligte interessiert: Besteht die Gefahr von Nährstoffausträgen? Insbesondere auch für Genehmigende interessant!
greifswaldmoor.bsky.social Greifswald Mire Centre @greifswaldmoor.bsky.social · 13d
💦 Weiter geht’s in der Vortragsreihe „Neue Moorlandschaften“
Am 12. Januar, 18 Uhr spricht Prof. Dominik Zak (Universität Aarhus):
Die Revitalisierung von Mooren steht vor einem (lösbaren) Phosphorproblem

Laut Netzwerk-Steuergerechtigkeit gehen uns jährlich bis zu 200 MILLIARDEN Euro durch Steuerhinterziehung und aggressive Steuervermeidung verloren. Geld, mit dem wir die Regelsätze fürs Bürgergeld viermal finanzieren und trotzdem noch erhöhen könnten. Holt das Geld bei den Reichen!

Just submitted a comment paper to a journal (discover sustainability).They reclassified it as a Review, then rejected it because it “lacks review methodology.”
The academic publishing machine: inventing a problem, then penalizing you for it. Peak Kafka.
