New in Area: 'What difference does language make? Comparing systematic evidence reviews of Vietnamese and English language literatures on climate change and the health of outdoor workers' by Anh Ngoc Vu et al. doi.org/10.1111/area... #geosky

Indian govt. raids/threatens climate activists for "campaigning against fossil fuels at the behest of some foreign organizations…similar activists or organisations whose climate campaigns may be inimical to India’s energy security are under the scanner”. www.climatechangenews.com/2026/01/07/i...

So frightening. ‘The list covers a wide swath of organizations and groups, including 31 UN entities, such as UN Water, UN Oceans, UN Population Fund, and the UN Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women.’ These apparently ‘no longer serve American interests’.

Cinq mois après sa promulgation, la loi Duplomb commence à être appliquée. Avec des effets très concrets sur le recours aux pesticides ou l’agrandissement des plus grandes exploitations d’élevage. Voici ce à quoi vous n’avez pas échappé. Un article de Nolwenn Weiler et Sophie Chapelle 👇

Winter storms have torn through Gaza’s camps, destroying more than 22,000 tents and flooding shelters. With little insulation, fuel, or medicine, families face freezing nights as aid agencies warn this winter could prove deadly without urgent intervention. #Gaza #WinterStorms #Refugees

The vindictive weaponization of NSF grants is just stunning. Even as someone who has had their own grants terminated (thanks, climate change topics) -- to just cancel ALL grants to Harvard is still shocking. There is no bottom to what is going to happen to science funding.

By me: ‘Shock to the system’: farmers hit by Trump’s chaotic tariffs, cuts and extreme weather resigned to needing yet another tax-payer funded bailout www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

Accountability & Responsibility: new blog from Amartya Sen & Jean Drèze Times of democratic uncertainty demand reflection on what it takes to ensure that public institutions function for the common good. Accountability is part of a much broader idea: responsibility.

Apart from nonsensical maths & logic, imagine being proud of slapping 40 - 50% tariffs on some of the world's poorest countries. Many of the textile & other industries played a huge role in poverty reduction, esp for women. #USA #Tariffs #Trump #USA Source : BBC

This is cool. The Guardian recreated a searchable climate future risk tool (wildfire, extreme heat, drought, hurricane, and coastal flood) for the US that was developed by FEMA but deleted by the Trump administration’s ‘climate’ purge.
