If we don’t fix the climate, pollution, and nature crises, we can’t fix anything. They are already actively amplifying poverty, hunger, and division. They are what stand between all of us, regardless of geography or ideology, and the better future we all seek. That's why I'm convinced that ...

My point is that it doesn't have to be that way. We are nowhere near maxing out investment in & implementation of sol'ns that benefit people, health, climate and nature at the same time.

Amazing analysis. Thank you. Some progress is encouraging but we can’t lose sight of blind spots. While there have been some commitments on food and feeding in the early years there’s still a way to go. #BabyBlindSpot

We need a large and loud response from the scientific community, or publishing at Wiley journals is going to come to a complete standstill. And since Wiley is the main alternative to Elsevier, there really aren't many options. Yet another industry has leaned into AI only to be utterly enshittified.

Planting the trees is great. I see lots of cities doing that.
What I often don’t see is cities spending the money to take care of them—watering, pruning, etc. I’d love to hear more stories about how that happens (e.g., budget; staffing)

Our libraries in #Wandsworth have left the interlibrary loan scheme! They claim that it is “cheaper to just get requested books on Amazon” but I haven’t seen any evidence of that…
