Mary Lawlor, UN Special Rapporteur on Human Rights Defenders, reminds us that ‘climate change IS a human rights issue’.
Her keynote speech at the @dcuclimate.bsky.social annual conference is a call to action, and a strong defence of #climate and #human #rights defenders worldwide.

A report by the Irish Fiscal Advisory Council & Climate Change Advisory Council indicates that the State risks fines of up to €26bn if climate targets are missed. The report, “A colossal missed opportunity”, warned that the State faced a stark choice, either “act now or risk substantial costs later”

Very sad to learn of the death of David Lodge - the Dickens (or merely Amis?) of late-20th century academia - whose Changing Places helped enliven my graduate studies in the 1980s. Even though my PhD advisor once called me 'the Morris Zapp of your set'.... I'm still reflecting on that, bitterly.
David Lodge, Campus Trilogy novelist and academic, dies aged 89
The author of more than two dozen books is best known for his trio set in a fictionalised version of the University of Birmingham, where he worked from 1960 to 1987
