Hello!

I am Ana, had a bluesky account for a year, but only started using it this week!

I work in energy, and study environmental policy.

I post about climate, finance, degrowth and renewable energy, and I sometimes write #bookreviews, mostly on new radical climate or politics publications.

An interesting read, though the subtitle says it best. At this point we need to move beyond abstract theorisations of transformations and engage in real strategy-building, for which Olin Wright is not granular enough.

Papier intéressant de @sylvestrehuet.bsky.social qui interroge une IA nourrie des rapports du GIEC pour lui demander quelle est la responsabilité du capitalisme dans le dérèglement climatique et s'il faudrait en sortir. On peut dire que ça botte un peu en touche.

L’IA, le GIEC, le capital, le climat
Dans les manifestations pro-climat, on peut entendre « changeons le système, pas le climat ». Qu’en dit le GIEC ? Que dit une IA de ce que dit le GIEC ?

And this is only becoming worse after Brexit. Studying in Scotland used to be free for EU students, making it a (slightly more) diverse uni. Now scottish students find themselves among the economic elite...

If you are trying to understand the NCQG check out Simon's style guide. "Calls on" is only an invitation, and it is also the weakest form of invitation...

Las donaciones voluntarias por la DANA están genial, pero no solucionan los problemas más graves de los afectados; eso sólo se logra con ayudas públicas cuantiosas. Lo público salva al pueblo!
