Researching how climate change and other crises impacts the agriculture and food systems in the Baltic Sea Region and Eastern Europe.
Good news for Ukraine 🇺🇦 and Sweden 🇸🇪 today! Ukraine intends to buy 100-150 Jas 39 Gripen E.

Will the next step be that Sweden increases donations to Ukraine, essentially buying them for Ukraine?

Also when will it be annonced that 🇸🇪 and 🇺🇦 will be developing the next generation stealth fighters?

Instead, it is climate change and the ongoing changes to our farming landscape that drives the prices.

We better get used to high food prices and the cause of our expensive ☕️coffee, 🥛milk, 🥚eggs, etc. is rather a result of bad farming policies and the failure to reduce our carbon emissions. [🧵7/7]

Some produce has increased way more, especially dairy, coffee & chocolate.

Swedish Television journalist Alexander Norén says that the cause can be linked to 2 major reasons. (1) #Climatechange which disrupts production & reduces yields and (2) the decreasing number of farmers in Sweden. [🧵 2/7]

Lately, the Swedish 🇸🇪 food prices have been intensively discussed. Higher prices ↗️ cause consumers to urge a boycott against the large Swedish food retailers, who are believed to profit on high prices. SCB (Statistics Sweden) report a 3.9% increase in overall food prices in 1 year. [🧵 1/7]

Watching Swedish parliament debate the support for Ukraine, or rather discussion of consensus. 8 out of 8 parties support extended support for Ukraine. @centerpartiet.bsky.social even goes as far as suggesting that 1% of Swedish GDP should go to Ukraine. No doubt that 🇺🇦 has full support from 🇸🇪

Felt a bit sad to delete my Twitter (X) account. But then I remembered that it has been dead for a long time already. Selective algorithms, toxic troll accounts & fascists agendas has killed what used to be a place for free speech. Happily keep my conversations to #Bluesky & #Mastodon. #HelloQuitX

I am facinated by Polish agriculture! When travelling by train though #Poland, you can literally see how the landscape differs from its neighbours. More small and diverse farms!

...and not very surprisingly, Poland has one of the highest Agricultural Production Diversity in #Europe. #agriculture
