Cultivating Change: A Collaborative Philanthropic Initiative to Accelerate and Scale Agroecology and Regenerative Approaches Food systems account for at least 15% of global fossil fuel use each year. 🚨 To tackle the climate, biodiversity, and health crises, we need to transition away from industrial food systems to #agroe...

🚨# FoodSystems = 1/3 of global emissions. They also contribute to:

🌲 90% of #deforestation
🦋 60% of #BiodiversityLoss
💧 70% of freshwater use

It’s time to shift #ClimateFinance to #agroecology + #RegenerativeFarming models.

Grateful to adapt our new paper on refugee family separation @ersjournal.com into a post for the Council on Contemporary Families. I hope it’s readable & useful for teaching courses on family, inequality, immigration, & policy. thesocietypages.org/ccf/2025/06/...

Book bans are rising, but everyday Americans dont want them.

We tested ~2000 people, and found broad acceptance, not polarization.

The public doesn't echo elite battles.

Congrats, Eliza! So glad to see your article is out :)

Doctor, how much does it cost? Moral values and price talk in a stratified consumer medical market

New paper out in Socio-Economic Review on how doctors and patients talk about the price of care in fertility medicine! I find that the way they talk about money is radically different depending on both the clinic's targeted clientele and organizational structure academic.oup.com/ser/advance-...

International students contribute $44 billion to the US economy annually, creating 1 job for every 4 students enrolled.

Higher ed is America’s 10th largest export industry. A finance professor explores how their impact reaches beyond big cities to small towns like Mankato, MN. buff.ly/kcGr5b1

Our lab had a #dogathon 🐕 yesterday where we analyzed NYC Open Data on dog licenses. We learned a lot of dog facts, which I’ll share in this thread 🧵

1) Geospatial trends: Cavalier King Charles Spaniels are common in Manhattan; the opposite is true for Yorkshire Terriers.

Not thinking of endowment per capita here, but how to tell a story about higher ed that doesn't focus on a handful of highly atypical institutions.

I'm not sure you can tell a great public story about Harvard. But there's another story to be told about what a "war on higher ed" actually looks like.

Screenshot of visualization from the financial times showing the size of university endowments relative to the total. The most visible names are Harvard, Yale, Stanford, Princeton, MIT, and the University of Texas.

We need one of these charts but for what percent of students attend Ivy League schools. www.ft.com/content/6300...

X post by Amy Nixon (@texasrunnerDFW ), featuring a verification badge. The post reads, "The USA is weird now. If you're a person under 30, you probably think it's normal but that's because you don't know. Trust me. It's weird."

America hasn’t felt this upside down since I was a child in an internment camp.

Doctors by Nature: How Ants, Apes & Other Animals Heal Themselves by Jaap de Roode

Cassandra Quave calls @jaapderoode.bsky.social's Doctors by Nature, "a fantastic read."

Exclusive: NIH to terminate hundreds of active research grants Studies that touch on LGBT+ health, gender identity and DEI in the biomedical workforce could be terminated, according to documents obtained by Nature.

The constant illegality is exhausting. And the extended nature of all this is going wear people down, as what was initially shocking becomes par for the course.

Listen to our latest episode, recorded live! We talk with chefs Norma Listman and Saqib Keval about historically informed food, how to run a justice-based restaurant, and their recent (controversial) Chef's Table feature. This one is particularly good. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

Dear Jenn, I'm so sorry for your loss. Sending you many hugs and ❤️

William Labov, Who Studied How Society Shapes Language, Dies at 97 He laid the foundation for sociolinguistics, and he showed that structures like class and race shaped speech as much as where someone lives.

“There is no reason to believe that any nonstandard vernacular is in itself an obstacle to learning. The chief problem is ignorance of language on the part of all concerned. Our job as linguists is to remedy this ignorance.”-Labov, in 1972.

And @avillamont.bsky.social

We're in a dangerous moment here. A lot of US progressives and leftists have grown disillusioned w the climate movement as such. Mainstream climate has mostly been silent on genocide. The GND turned into IRA, which turned into minimal social wins and Harris running on fracking. Trump's back. 🧵

The fact is the recent clean energy laws, many of which were bipartisan, are sending billions of dollars into Republican districts. They are overwhelmingly creating jobs in rural and Republican communities.

I made a Sociology Starter Pack. Its just a start, so let me know if you want to be added.
