Equity in science is a beautiful lie — and I’m done pretending Science isn’t really moving towards equity; institutions are just perfecting the appearance of equity. We need to build an alternative system.

Hospital Staffing and Patient Outcomes After Private Equity Acquisition | Annals of Internal Medicine Background: After private equity acquisition, hospitals may experience changes in staffing with implications for patients. Objective: To examine hospital staffing and patient outcomes in emergency dep...

“Conclusion:

After private equity acquisition, hospitals on average reduced salaries and staffing relative to nonacquired hospitals…This decreased capacity to deliver care may explain the increased patient transfers to other hospitals, shortened ICU lengths of stay, and increased ED mortality.” 🩺🧪

Systematic attribution of heatwaves to the emissions of carbon majors - Nature Climate change made 213 historical heatwaves reported over 2000–2023 more likely and more intense, to which each of the 180 carbon majors (fossil fuel and cement producers) substantially contributed.

A paper in Nature suggests a quarter of heatwave events from 2000-23 would have been near impossible without anthropogenic climate change. The paper also indicates that major carbon emitters are responsible for around 50% of the increase in intensity of these events. ⚒️ 🧪

Opinion | Brazil Just Succeeded Where America Failed

“Brazilian justices pushed back forcefully. When evidence emerged that the Bolsonaro campaign had made widespread use of misinformation during the 2018 election, the court began what became known as the Fake News Inquiry, in which it aggressively sought to crack down on dangerous misinformation.”

A figure showing that light pollution prolongs avian vocal activity by nearly an hour. (A) Most diurnal bird species show bimodal vocalization patterns with peaks in the morning and evening; in light-polluted landscapes (yellow shading), the first vocalizations occur earlier in the morning and the last vocalizations occur later in the evening. (B) Globally—averaged across species, space, and season—onset of morning vocalization shifted 18 min earlier in the brightest landscapes versus the darkest landscapes. (C) Similarly, evening cessation was delayed by an average of 32 min. In (B) and (C), lines are means and shaded regions are 95% confidence intervals (CI) of model predictions.

Light pollution is causing birds around the world to sing for longer each day, prolonging their vocalizations on average by 50 minutes, according to a new study in Science.

Para os colegas do "sul global", olhem com calma para essas oportunidades e informem-se sobre a pessoa que faz a oferta. E para os das regiões favorecidas pela história, se vcs se reconhecem nessas palavras, é o momento de mudar e apreciar o trabalho e conhecimento dos pesquisadores locais.

Rise in dengue fever outbreaks across the Pacific driven by the climate crisis, experts say Samoa, Fiji and Tonga among the worst affected amid warning the disease and others will become ‘more common and more serious’ as the planet warms

Dr Paula Vivili, deputy director general of the Pacific Community (SPC), said historically dengue outbreaks were seasonal.

“However, due to climate change, transmission seasons are lengthening, and some areas are experiencing year-round dengue risk,”

Surge in critical minerals claims puts Brazil’s land reform communities at risk The greed of mining companies in their search for critical minerals in Brazil is threatening food production and the environment, particularly in the Amazon and northeast region states. This is what…

The greed for critical minerals is invading land reform settlements in Brazil, threatening food production and environmental protection.

Almost half of the mining projects impacting rural settlements are in the Brazilian Amazon.
