As projected here www.nature.com/articles/s41... we are steadily moving toward a situation where are major town or city runs out of water

There are early signs of this everywhere, right now Iran seems to be a hotspot at ~1.5ºC of heating

We are *utterly* unprepared for what comes at 1.6, 1.7 & 2ºC

These ads are poisoning trust in media ‘Native advertising' allows fossil fuel companies to disguise their ads in news outlets. A new book argues the practice undermines journalistic credibility.

Big Oil is using native advertising to "disguise their ads in news outlets" and promote "controversial technologies like carbon capture as climate solutions, portray fossil fuel companies as climate-friendly, or misrepresent their role in the energy transition" finds author @commscholar.bsky.social.

Kinneging reageert op screenshot van titel van interview met PhD over haar (academisch legitieme) onderzoeksconclusies. Doet dan alsof heel de UvA dit vindt; loopt leeg over de Sovjet-Unie zonder letter van het proefschrift gelezen te hebben. Roept op tot sluiten van de UvA. 🥴Wetenschap onwaardig.

A Government of cowards.

Rather than tackle inequality - they've gone for pensioners, disabled people and now it's people fleeing war and persecution.

They can't get away with this.

Yanis Varoufakis on X: "Since Trump’s ‘ceasefire’, Israel killed 900 Palestinians in Gaza. In the West Bank, 691 Palestinians were kidnapped during 1,503 invasions.

Once a global leader on climate action, the EU has given in to the right’s green-bashing | Nathalie Tocci From deforestation to emissions trading, vital policies are being watered down in the name of ‘competitiveness’, says Guardian Europe columnist Nathalie Tocci

Once a leader on climate action, the EU has given in to the right’s green-bashing. From deforestation to carbon pricing, vital policies are being watered down in the name of ‘competitiveness’. But Europe is shooting itself in the foot. My piece @theguardian.com

Blijkbaar mag je niet eens meer de waarheid zeggen over Liegende Dilan, zonder meteen gecanceld te worden door het verstikkende politiek correcte discours aan de rechterflank.

Is vrijheid van meningsuiting nog wel zo vanzelfsprekend in Nederland?

Lekker gewerkt van CDA en VVD in het Europees Parlement: voor het eerst samengewerkt met de PVV, AfD, Le Pen en Orbán om de Europese wegkijkwet slopen.

Hier kiest centrum rechts (waaronder CDA) voor de samenwerking met uiterst rechts, om het grote geld uit de wind te houden www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2025/...

Als de VVD zichzelf in de hoek manoeuvreert kan het nog altijd op een loyale PINO* rekenen die het voor ze opneemt.

Daarnaast stel ik ook voor om dezelfde eisen te gaan stellen aan banken e.d., want het aantal investment bankers dat links stemt is bizar klein. Bepalen waar hoeveel geld naartoe gaat (en waar dus niet) is even formatief voor de samenleving als de universiteit per slot van rekening.
