This was a very good discussion of what is wrong with ecomodernism (spoiler: you can have all the tech you want, it will not magically produce painless redistribution because the effects of property and prices will not automatically disappear in the future)! www.nybooks.com/articles/202...

My article is out! On how ‘ecosystem services’ went from a word for those aspects of nature that economics cannot express to a word for nature's economic value, and how concerns for planetary habitability disappeared from the environmentalist vocabulary. www.journals.uchicago.edu/doi/10.1086/...

"The oft-noted scandal of climate change is that those who caused it will not live to see its full consequences, and those who are suffering or will suffer worst did not cause the problem." -Wainwright, Joel; Mann, Geoff. Climate Leviathan

At COPs, countries like Norway, Australia, the U.S. and Canada argue for high climate ambition. Back at home, they have collectively increased oil and gas production by 40% since Paris Agreement. This is why climate negotiation demands shouldn't be interpreted as action drilled.media/news/COP30-OCI

🌍 #COP30: A turning point for climate & gender justice? Women, particularly racialised & marginalised women are on the frontlines of climate & environmental injustice.Yet their leadership, knowledge & solutions are often overlooked in decision-making spaces like COP. www.wen.org.uk/2025/11/10/c...

Letter from a climate activist: “It is time for every leader to prove that they value people over polluters. My generation will not stop pushing for policies that match the science and protect our future.”

“In union, there is strength.” ― Aesop Please, all in the conservation movement, do not do deals that simply favour your pet areas, in exchange for publicly endorsing @australianlabor.bsky.social's pathetic environmental law reform bill. Demand the whole package is improved, back in the science!

A beam of light in the darkness of the world from Naarm last night. I'm proud to live in a state that has accomplished something so important in passing Australia's first Indigenous treaty. Always was, always will be Aboriginal land 🖤💛❤️

If @billgates.bsky.social were to read #ScienceUnderSiege by @peterhotezmdphd.bsky.social & myself, he would know that climate change is amplifying deadly pandemics. Only someone ignorant of the science adopts the fallacy that we can treat global health and the climate crisis as separate threats

Trump just murdered six more people off the coast of Venezuela.

Australia can offer the US a guaranteed and reliable supply of rare earths, but we should NOT make a deal at any special price. We should process the minerals here and export them at (tight) market rates. Trump has done us no favours. #auspol

The only violence I’ve been seeing in Portland is from the so-called Feds!!! Keep sharing these videos; it’s evidence.

There is absolutely zero chance that a man who took $50,000 in cash in a paper bag from an FBI agent on camera would have been appointed to any position by any other president.

Haha, glory be.

As an aspirational Australia energy minister, it is (or should be) deeply embarrassing for Dan Tehan MP to not understand the difference between ‘firming’ and ‘base load’ power, or gigawatts and megawatts (!). Do better, Dan reneweconomy.com.au/dan-tehan-fa...

The victim was aged between 6 and 9. The reporting seems to miss the point that a child cannot consent to sex, so "sexual experience" should be accurately described as "previous rapes". The whole thing is disgusting.

A self-identified professional scientist using the screenname Mug of Glop also chimed in, saying, “lmao Trump is the absolute weakest b—- in history.” There’s a reason tennis has sunk to triviality in this country in the last 40 years,” he added. “It’s terrified, condescending management like this.”

Trump gets booed at the US Open and WTA agrees to seek media blackout 😤. But you can see it here, with Harry Sisson.

I'd like clarify this one. Actually, this partnership does have an influence on Woodside's behaviour. It emboldens them. It makes them part of society and facilitates their continued pollution.
