Pro-COVID UK Charity With Anti-Vax Ties Behind Controversial Stanford Health Policy Conference Collateral Globalโ€™s fight against pandemic mitigation measures has gone international.

In case you missed it, earlier this month, Stanford University held a health policy summit stacked with COVID contrarians, anti-vaxxers, and right-wing operatives (Holy Overlap, Batman).

It was funded in part by a pro-COVID UK charity with anti-vax ties.

The elephant in the room: Long-haul air services and climate change This paper extends previous research that has examined the impact of banning (super) short-haul flights on climate change. Looking at all scheduled paโ€ฆ

"flights of 4000 km or more account for just 5.1 % of flights, but 39.0 % of fuel burnt". This jaw dropping number is from a new paper by @giuliomattioli.bsky.social et al www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

'What must be understood is that we are not just a country with a history of racism but home to one of the three great โ€œovertly racist regimes,โ€ as George M. Fredrickson writes in his book Racism: A Short History: South Africa, Nazi Germany, and the Jim Crow South.'

Also not bothered by the religious undertones either; Iโ€™ve shifted formally to agnostic again so welp (honestly I think I always was, now itโ€™s just spiritual and agnostic as opposed to atheist and spiritual)

Rich people have profound help with shit like this and back then being a renaissance man type was in vogue so screw em, he got lucky with the time and the place - youโ€™d have likely done better provided you kept your ethics and morals intact

Itโ€™s just the game man
