Lead researcher ING climate lawsuit @milieudefensie and lecturer @uva.nl. IPE of global financial governance by day, Anthropocene politics by night. Views are my own.
Timmermans benadrukt in zijn email aan de @groenlinks-pvda.bsky.social leden wederom dat de fusie een 'voldongen feit' is. Dan heb ik ook een 'voldongen feit': de primaire onderbouwing van de fusie ('meedoen in de strijd om de macht') blijkt bijzonder wankel, om niet te zeggen: afwezig...

Read @brettchristophers.bsky.social's The Price is Wrong with my book club and it was awesome. I learned a lot about the electricity market from this very insightful (albeit slightly depressing if you aim to avoid dangerous climate change) application of PE (with nice Polanyi ref)

Wonderful start of @hetactiefonds.bsky.social donor day with speeches from within the movement, historical anecdotes, and proud supporters

Excellent work-life balance, I would say

Quatsch. Spreken over de sociaal-democratische bibliotheek, maar niet zien dat in de ecologische bieb Hickel gebroederlijk naast het werk van Bob Goudzwaard staat. Sociaal-democraten zijn niet de enigen met historie en ideologie

ik heb braaf de GroenLinks-PvdA aanzet tot een beginselprogramma doorgeakkerd (lezenswaardig stuk, daarover later meer) en kan dus weloverwogen zeggen:

Very interesting research presentation of @simonschairer.bsky.social on the offloading of climate risks to the shadow banking sector, creating a systemic risk in this shady corner of finance. Wondering about the role of banks as conduits

Superinteresting and fitting program for the farewell colloquium of @mvdstichele.bsky.social @somoamsterdam.bsky.social. A grand tour of the state of affairs with the EU financial system

Sophie Straat en band is het beste wat Nederlandstalige muziek is overkomen in decennia. Feit.

In Germany there are still banks fighting on the banknotes side in the war on cash (which I understand if you are a market leader in foreign currency). Love it

Met een nieuw boek op komst eindelijk de vorige van @jobvtol.bsky.social uit de ongelezen boekenkast gepakt. Nog in de eerste hoofdstukken en nu al nieuwe dingen geleerd over dieren en diergedrag!

When you claim sustainability is a key strategic pillar but you sure as hell are not going to be held accountable for it...

Ooit reisden vogelaars speciaal naar de Oostvaardersplassen af om een grote zilverreiger te spotten, inmiddels gewoon onder een viaduct in het Flevopark (en dat is niet onverdeeld goed nieuws #klimaatverandering)

now that I am potentially supervising a thesis on the EU's Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism again, it is time to re-up my call to stop pronouncing that as cee-bam, and henceforth pronounce it as ca-bam

After the Court of Appeal did not impose a percentage with which Shell needed to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions, @milieudefensie.bsky.social be like

While the world agreed to transition away from fossil fuels, banks duly reduced their financing of oil and gas. But not ING. They grew significantly - to the point of (self-admittedly) overcapacity in some corners of the market and ensuring a carbon lock-in for decades to come

Ever since my stint at the banknotes directorate I rather liked this physical side of money & finance. And look at this beauty

it is basically this meme in an academic paper, but this economist wouldn't be sweating it
