I’m working on a report about data centers in Illinois and remembered this resource that gathers redlining maps from across the USA in case anybody else might find the resource useful for similar (or other) projects:

I always frame citational practice as relational: Whose ideas do I want to inherit and carry forward? Whose/which ideas am I responsible to/for? Which thinkers have offered me intellectual, emotional, spiritual guidance? Who are my ontoepistemological ancestors? #AcademicSky #AcademicChatter

🧪 Friends of all backgrounds: please enjoy this new paper whose findings “reveal that bees engage higher-order cognitive mechanisms under temporal uncertainty, suggesting that core features of awareness may be evolutionarily conserved across distant taxa.” Yeah. 🫢 www.cell.com/iscience/ful...

Sultana draws on documentary video content from the 'Voices from the Global South' project, produced by the Open University, @rgsibg.bsky.social & @igu-ugi.bsky.social, to illustrate the arguments in her paper. rgs-ibg.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

New in Geo: 'Repairing epistemic injustice and loss in the era of climate coloniality' by Farhana Sultana This paper critically examines the intersections of power, pedagogy and praxis in producing inequitable climate knowledge, global governance, policies and solutions. doi.org/10.1002/geo2...

In case anyone is interested, here's my course guide for 'Epistemic Injustice' (formally 'Knowledge, Ignorance, and Power'), which I'm teaching this semester. I've made some changes for this year. There's still so much I don't get to - as I said before, I really need a second semester.

At the National Science Teaching Association (NSTA) meeting in Minneapolis, our @stemteachingtool.bsky.social team from UW Seattle put on 13 sessions on equity & justice-focused approaches to #SciEd & #ClimateChange ed All slides & resources are available here: stemteachingtools.org/news/2025/ns...

Today (Thurs) at #NSTAFall25, we start off at 8am with a session that explores 21 different priority areas of climate & environmental justice. Come explore how to teach about a new topic in Room 102A! Our full schedule is below. bsky.app/profile/phil...

Had a powerful launch into #NSTAFall25 today at the Climate Café. I talked to dozens of educators & ed leaders working to teach about #ClimateJustice & #EnvironmentalJustice. If you are at NSTA this week, come join us in Room 102A to keep it going. Detailed schedule below! bsky.app/profile/phil...

Are you at NSTA in Minneapolis? Come join us today (Wed) at the Climate Café! It runs from 1 to 3pm (in the STEM Showcase). Our STEM Teaching Tools team is co-hosting the café with Climate Generation. #TeachClimate #ClimateChange #ClimateJustice #NSTAFall25

PLS SHARE #SciEd #NGSS #STEAM The UW @stemteachingtool.bsky.social team just published another NEW TOOL. This one shows how to use ART PEDAGOGIES as a powerful platform for students to learn about and take action on #ClimateJustice and #EnvironmentalJustice! ➡️ stemteachingtools.org/brief/105

One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc

PLS SHARE #SciEd #NGSS The UW @stemteachingtool.bsky.social team just published a NEW TOOL on how the words we use to describe the ecological world matters! Since language reflects & constructs power we should root our words in environmental justice & flourishing. ➡️ stemteachingtools.org/brief/104

60 yrs ago today (Nov 5, 1965), the 1st US government report to warn about climate change was published. "Restoring the Quality of Our Environment" included warning of C02 build-up and sea-level rise/melting ice-caps. allouryesterdays.info/2025/11/04/6... 1/n

Last Thurs, the Trump admin announced it is opening the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge to oil and gas drilling, which sits on Inupiaq and Gwich’in land. The Gwich’in consider the land sacred and rely on the caribou migration.

Come get your Master's or PhD degree with us! We have a new program strand focused on LAND AND WATER EDUCATION FOR SOVEREIGN FUTURES! Come explore how land- and water-based pedagogies that uphold Indigenous sovereignty support environmental & #ClimateJustice. education.uw.edu/academics/pr...

TL;DR "Al in education is something to avoid as much as you can." Great 🧵

“If we cannot even in principle be free from external manipulation and anti-scientific claims — and instead remain passive … and welcome corrosive industry frames into our computer systems, our scientific literature, and our classrooms — then we have failed as scientists and as educators.” 5/🧵

Lol the Nobels can't even acknowledge women's contribution to discovery. But sure let's acknowledge The Machines.

Six of the nine Nobel Prize winners this year work in the U.S. Three of the six were born outside the U.S., which is the pattern most years. No country has benefited more from welcoming immigrants from around the world. www.nobelprize.org

@hcrichardson.bsky.social A good read that gives important background as to what Signalgate clown is saying. I WOULD like to include the official Oglala Sioux Tribe response to this. I shared before, separately, but I feel this piece should be here as well.

In 2020, we mapped out the danger zones that will close in on Americans over the next 30 years — combining climate data with wildfire projections by US Forest Service researchers and others. See what changes are in store for your county 👇

"In a landmark study, OpenAI researchers reveal that large language models will always produce plausible but false outputs, even with perfect data, due to fundamental statistical and computational limits." www.computerworld.com/article/4059...

It is vital to understand climate change as a multispecies justice issue. Here's how SCIENCE mag covered this new study in @pnas.org: "CLIMATE CHANGE TURNS ALASKAN RIVER TOXIC: The Salmon River, long a symbol of Alaska's untrammeled wild beauty, is now an emblem of Arctic climate change."

Bureaucracy and budget constraints couldn’t stop CalPoly Humboldt’s Native American Studies Department from founding an Indigenous foods research lab.

Today I've been exploring one of the longest standing Indigenous blockades in Canada. I learned about this Anishinaabe resistance fight as I read Leanne Simpson's THEORY OF WATER (which is powerful!) You can learn about the Grassy Narrows resistance here: www.indigenouswatchdog.org/update/for-m...

My latest must-reads list and my final thoughts for the week. Here, I talk about the first AI-involved murder in the US (that we know of), how the guardrails of reality are being tampered with or removed, and the need to anchor ourselves to each other if we're going to survive these times.

“The men&women who have joined CDC across generations have done so not for prestige or power, but because they believe deeply in the call to service. They deserve an HHS secretary who stands up for health, supports science & has their back. So, too, does our country.” www.nytimes.com/2025/09/01/o...
