Is it a North American thing? A while back I was in a bar here (legal drinking age = 18) with some 20-year old American backpackers who insisted they couldn’t have a drink because they weren’t 21. Some sort of feudal concept of personal law going on.

LOL. No Air Canada. You do not get to "offer" me delay compensation less than the amount required by UK law. That is not how the law works.

Se há coisa que Israel tem em barda são prisões. E até eu conseguia comprar 400 barras proteicas e pacotes de compal.

While there are a number of limitations to this analysis, which I discuss in the paper, these findings provide robust global evidence that personal experience with climate-related hazards is associated with increased climate risk perception. Read it all here: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

There is marked variation between countries, and this appears to differ across hazards. For example, hurricanes, mudslides, and wildfires show similar effects across countries, while the effects of earthquakes, sandstorms, and droughts vary strongly across countries.

I use hierarchical Bayesian multinomial regression modeling, which allows me to investigate what level of risk perception is different for people with hazard experience. Importantly, people with hazard experience tend to view climate change as a very serious threat, not just a somewhat serious one!

The distinction between individual-level effects & country-level patterns is critical. A recent global study found that country average exposure was not related to policy support, similar to what I found here with risk perception. But individual exposure still matters! www.nature.com/articles/s41...

I leverage this data source to assess whether experience with different hazards is associated with increased climate risk perception. The individual-level effects are consistent and, for some hazards, comparable to having a university degree! Effects at the country level are small & uncertain

I use the World Risk Poll data, which includes information on whether respondents have personally experienced a climate-related hazard in the last five years, whether they perceive climate change as a threat to their country, and a multidimensional resilience indicator. www.lrfoundation.org.uk/wrp

🔥 Climate hazard paper published! Using nationally representative survey data from 142 countries (N = 128,093), I find that people who have experienced a climate-related hazard are more likely to consider climate change a 𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺 𝘴𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵. 🧵 Link: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

SIM para o fim da escala 6x1! NÃO para a Reforma Administrativa! Por: @mariadorosario.bsky.social

and as President from 7 May 2012 till date, his current (fifth) term as president will end in 2030 following his victory in March 2024 presidential election. He has been described as the de facto leader of Russia since 1999 or 2000.

Today is President Vladimir Putin's 73rd birthday. Putin has served as the Prime Minister of Russia from 9 August 1999 – 7 May 2000, as Acting President from 31 December 1999 – 7 May 2000, as President from 7 May 2000 – 7 May 2008, as Prime Minister from 8 May 2008 – 7 May 2012,

A cultura de um povo é uma força coletiva tão poderosa que estará sempre na linha da frente da resistência a todo e qualquer regime de exceção. A gente precisa de comida, diversão e arte, como cantaram Os Titãs. Foi justamente o que tentaram de tirar de nós. Mas resistimos.

O #CongressoMamateiro vai pôr em votação a PEC da reforma administrativa do centrão. Só destruição do serviço público e dos servidores! Se não formos às ruas, em dez anos só teremos prestação de serviço do setor privado e...o dinheiro do povo sustentando. Uma verdadeira privatização do Estado.

The passion in which she speaks. Her eloquence and diction. Her choice of words. She’s an icon. A legend living in our time. I respect the shit out of her. youtube.com/shorts/lIUQg...

I arrived in southern Gaza with my children, walking six hours without anything. Now I'm sitting in a tent shared with my brother. We have no tent, no mattress, and no food. Visit us, donate, or repost. We want to buy a tent, food, clothes, and mattresses 😞 we are tired😭😭 gofund.me/7fc0e346

I would argue that THIS strategy of user outreach is in fact toxic. Do you want feedback from ALL users or just users who follow you or somehow get this in their network? Where is the organized Bluesky comms and outreach strategy? bsky.app/profile/alis...

Näyttääpä siis siltä, että fasismin kautta tässä mennään. Kuten olen pitkään pelännyt. Henkiinjääneet sitten varmaan tajuavat, että olipa hölmö idea.

Ja kun ei tässä uusliberaalissa paradigmassa OLE lääkkeitä tähän fossiilitalouden kuolonkorinaan! Ei voi tehdä aktiivista politiikkaa, ei voi hillitä Pääomia, ei voi hillitä ympäristötuhoja, ei voi sijoittaa puolustukseen, ei voi, ei voi, ei voi. Ei voi mitään, mikä sattuisi raha-aateliin.

Tässäkin muuten taas näkyy, miten demokratia ei kestä vaurauksien keskittymistä harvojen käsiin. Tai hallinnasta karannutta kapitalismia. Isoimmaksi syyksi tuossakin mainitaan asumisen hinta kaupungeissa. Sitä ajaa ylös sekä se, että vauraus on kasaantunut, että kv-sijoittajat.

Voi itku tätä touhua. Taustalla on ihan todellisia ongelmia ja vältettävissä ollutta hölmöilyä. Mutta seurauksena näkyy olevan, että barbaarit ovat portilla. Espanja on vielä sen verran tärkeä maa EUlle, että aletaan olla liemessä jos sekin kippaa fasisteille.

Honestly, I think Netanyahu is on his way to surpassing Hitler at this point. Even the Nazis weren’t unduly brazen about their evil intentions.

This Portland police officer stood up for his community against ICE agents trying to drive into a crowd of protesters. “You WILL be arrested.”

This is still happening, two years, eight decades

Last year they claimed “illegals” were voting, without any evidence. They used fear mongering to push for voter suppression laws. Now they claim “illegals” are getting free healthcare, again without any evidence. So they can make healthcare unaffordable for millions of Americans. Enough.

When your custom character appears in a cut scene

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city. They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

And most of the possible actions depend on having alternatives available. Is there good public transit and safe bike lanes? We can't build power plants. But government can make solar and wind easier. Government can support adding solar power to homes. Build it and people will use it.

I certainly think our 2)s have let us down & humanity. But clearly they were under pressure from 1) & many of them were in that demographic 2%ers 3%ers Obama is a classic example. But all have failed. (Didn't get the risk of existential I guess) twitter.com/markhertsgaa...

It's not ppl as such that are the problem. It's 1) the wealthy elite who won't give up their money & power 2) political leaders who have no courage or are beholden to 1. 3) ~40% of the ppl who are genetically biased to be selfish

99.95 of climate denial is solution aversion. What that means is, soon as you respond to one "but what about?" objection, they'll pop right up with a new one. This video explains, and if you're interested in a deep dive, I have a whole book about this! It's called Saving Us.

Some easy steps: move your money to the right bank, check bank.green to divest from fossil fuels projects today. move money away from fossil fuels and demand your bank do the same, call or email your bank about it! Check out @chilliapp.bsky.social for other actions to take

I think you didn’t read the essay or my pinned post. Please do! :)

For a senator, policy is individual action. For an activist it means activist-ing. For a business owner it’s business practices. For an artist it’s striving for things like relevance, resonance, beauty, poetry etc that sustain us and help us imagine the future.

And, individual actions doesn’t just mean things like bringing your own straw. It means each person leveraging their skills, platforms, roles, etc.

Millions of people using their voices to change the world. That's the only way society has changed before - and that's how I know we can do it again! My essay here talks about how to link recycling your yoghurt container to catalyzing society-wide change :)

• Introduces global modelling to show how we can feed 10 billion people within environmental limits. • Puts justice at the center — from fair wages to healthy food access. • Identifies 8 solution areas to guide food systems transformation

The 2025 EAT-Lancet report has been published 6 years after the original report broke ground in synthesizing knowledge about our food systems. This new report provides a scientific update on what constitutes a healthy, sustainable, and just food system in today’s world. eatforum.org/update/the-2...
