Les personnes qui tombent sur Christophe Cassou, vous n’avez vraiment aucune idée de tout ce qu’il a fait depuis 2 ans contre le projet de l’A69 et pour faire avancer l’écologie dans notre pays.
Gardez votre énergie pour vous énerver sur l’Etat et leur politique violente. Choisissez vos ennemis.

.. and the decision to renege on already-committed climate finance was also federal - hence the "rogue" qualification
We agree, this is about the federal state, not all individual states, and #WeAreStillIn has been very useful and will be mor eimportant than ever in the next four years!

In climate science, the US is now a rogue state
Failing to gather, preserve and acknowledge environmental data means less sight of what is inevitably ahead
"In climate science, the US is now a rogue state", says the FT
This is true, but incomplete: the US is also a rogue state in climate finance, and more generally in climate action...

Semi-regular check:
Does anybody know of anyone who had said they "reluctantly" voted for Trump "after some deep thought and reflection" because: the "economy," or "business" or "America's standing in the world" or... who has since publicly changed their mind?

The student paper at the college at which I teach reports a "tsunami of takedown requests" from international students terrified of being targeted for innocuous, legitimate op-eds & opinions.. Many ask in person--leave no trace in writing. Reminds me of my father's account of studying in the USSR.

Rightwing media falsely blame Ed Miliband for UK steel crisis, experts say
Net zero and clean energy can actually help save the steel industry, experts point out
I've been a journalist for 25+ years and I'm not sure I've witnessed as much wilful (and v likely coordinated) disinformation from certain corners of the UK media than over past few days. Sun, Mail and Telegraph have been truly awful - and seemingly shameless

Why Turkey’s democratic future matters for the world
My arrest in the government’s attempt to crush dissent shows how important the stability of my country is
From his prison, Ekrem İmamoğlu writes:
"As the EU strives to fortify itself against growing challenges, the presence of a democratic Turkey is indispensable. A regime that crushes dissent and governs by fear will only deepen regional volatility"...

Russie 🇷🇺 – Histoire des viols de guerre
Depuis des décennies, le Kremlin encourage les viols sur les civils & les prisonniers de guerre. Moscou cherche ainsi à faire plier ses adversaires, à briser ses ennemis pour les soumettre à ses ambitions impérialistes⤵️
