Creo que un punto ciego de cierto activismo y análisis político es una reducción muy fuerte del problema medioambiental al cambio climático y más en particular al de la transición energética renovable. Para que quede claro, en mi opinión el cambio climático es el problema más grave que tenemos a...

20 straight days with 30 °C in Finland! Truly unprecedented heatwave still in full swing with maximum today about 32-33 degrees.

Even the Arctic regions (e.g. Sodankylä Tähtelä) have seen three weeks above 25 °C, and may rival tomorrow their August heat records.

Taking climate science seriously means adopting anti-capitalist, anti-imperialist, anti-patriarchal and anti-racist approaches towards pretty much any topic.

A lot of us are *extremely* worried about pesticides.

But the point is: mass insect die-off is now happening due to climate breakdown, even where pesticides aren't a factor.

Nature is being attacked on just about every front there is, and needs *every last one* of us to step up in its defence.
Surely liberal use of pesticides across the globe is also having a massive effect? No-one seems too worried about that...

Según el medio israelí Haaretz, Hamás aún cuenta con un arsenal de miles de cohetes de corto alcance y con buena parte de la red de túneles, que se cree que antes del inicio de la guerra se extendía por más de 500 kilómetros subterráneos

Columbia University has a long record of making foolish and short-sighted decisions. For example: In 1993, they didn't accept me into their philosophy PhD program.

Conference season is near.
Dear fellow academics, first of all you shouldn't be flying anywhere for a conference, the climate crisis is real ffs.
Second, DO NOT GO TO THE US unless you are cool with being detained, harmed and potentially deported to Salvadoran prison camps.
So: DO NOT GO TO THE US.

Horrific news from Gaza about Israeli massacre of innocents during Ramadan. Btw, all of you separating Ukraine and Gaza: Trump will respond to Israel's violation of ceasefire exactly as he will respond to Russia's. By supporting the aggressor.

oh, that 'curious' subaltern feeling of being systematically silenced. 🫠
Shocking. Never thought I'd live to see this.
I was just told that I have to remove “climate” from the title of an ongoing grant if I want to keep it. And publications from that grant cannot include “climate” and other forbidden words. I can’t believe I’m writing this from the United States of America. #AcademicSky

Gotta love beavers. Czech planners had spent 7 years preparing a flood protection damn that would cost 1,2 million euros; instead eight beavers turned up and enacted the damn in a few days, doing a better job than planned by the authorities.
