Kiitos oli hyvin journalismin logiikkaa ja tulevaisuutta avaava - päällimmäisenä mieleen jäi kiitollisuus toimittajien syvää ammattitaitoa kohtaan. Ymmärrän, että koko juttujen tuotannon prosessia ei kuitenkaan voi sisältöjen rinnalla hirmusti korostaa.

Sama tilanne meillä tutkimuksessa.

We continue to need directionality toward sustainable growth and green economy. Streamlining and increasing policy coherence should be possible without sacrificing ambition.

Finland published the new food / nutrition recommendations last week. The guidance is mostly based on health research evidence but now it includes also environmental consideration. The changes from the previous ones: more potato, less (processed) meat. @sykefi.bsky.social @ruokavirasto.bsky.social

My hometown Helsinki from different angles. Dramatic?

Did you know that non-metal minerals, like sand and gravel constitute the largest share of resouce / raw material use in Finland and in the world?

We need to shift to repurposing of buildings and infrastructure: #circulareconomy.

My first thread on Bluesky 😀
What is the global GHG mitigation potential in 2035? A very relevant question for the upcoming round of NDCs. We analysed it for the 2024 UNEP Emissions Gap Report (Ch. 6).
Conclusion: the mitigation potential is more than enough to bridge the 2035 emissions gap.
