What a fantastic thread. Page turner history books. We need a pop chart equivalent!
Ok BlueSky: what are your favorite history books in terms of sheer page-turning, narrative propulsion? Thinking along the line of Killers of the Flower Moon, etc. Nonfiction chronicles that read like novels or movies.

"The impact was dramatic. Water use fell by more than 55% in under two years, from 1.2 billion liters per day to about 500 million.When rains finally returned in 2018, the reservoirs refilled. But the deeper lesson endured: transparent, collective action can shift behavior on a massive scale"

Academics from all fields should be at the forefront of the action for the planet everywhere. Their absence is the greatest betrayal of academia's mission. #ClimateSky

"There’s no research on a dead planet - so why do so few academics engage in activism?"- @charliejgardner.bsky.social
1/ There's a lot of talk these days about scientific neutrality and the role of academics in our planetary emergency

So I'd love to introduce myself by sharing some of my work on academic activism and talking a bit about my own shift from 'the lab' to the streets
