Today’s book recommendations for Christmas presents #books #reading

I've finally got around to curating a selection of films about the #climate crisis 🎥 There's lot of mediocre climate films out there, but for me these stand out head & shoulders above the rest 🎞️ They make excellent resources for classrooms, lecture halls, or community cinema's 🎬 Thread:🧵Plz RT

Cooking and eating together connect us beyond hunger — to memory, identity, and home. My latest piece explores how commensality becomes care and resistance for marginalised people: medium.com/the-new-clim...

Just published in The New Climate: Will New Laws Help to ‘Green’ Almería’s Sea of Plastic? Almería’s greenhouses look dazzling from above — but underneath lies a system struggling with plastic, waste & fragile regulations. 👉 medium.com/the-new-clim...

Absolutely wild. Israel targeted and massacred 31 journalists and media staff in Yemen. The second-deadliest attack on journalists ever recorded. The Israeli regime is built on war crimes.

Delighted to have my photography research featured in the British Ecological Society Niche magazine! We talk about photoelicitation, commensality and labour exploitation in Almería's intensive greenhouses. With María López Rodríguez and @jlvicentevicente.bsky.social #migration #foodsystems

F*CK YEAH! This is wonderful news - hope in the darkness! Well done, Zack #greens #politics #news www.theguardian.com/politics/liv...

Can anyone please help? I’m looking for a translator to help with subtitles on two <1 minute audio recordings. Any pointers greatly appreciated! 🙏🏻 #translation #documentaryfilm #morocco #arabic

Norwegian salmon 🐟 + Spanish tomatoes 🍅 Both look ordinary on our supermarket shelves, but both fuel broken food chains: overfishing in West Africa, dangerous migration, and exploited labour in Europe. Read my latest photojournalism article 👉 europeancorrespondent.com/en/r/how-eur...

While green technologies can hypothetically make supply chains more efficient, enhanced efficiency often leads to more production and economic growth, not less.

A farmworker died last week after sustaining injuries during a chaotic raid on a California farm. In an op-ed, Vanessa Trujano reflects on a lesson she learned as a young farmworker: “America values immigrant labor more than actual immigrants, & so we must recognize our own worth.”

This year's Evidence Synthesis International School is open for registration! Join us in Almería in November for a 5-day course taking you from a question to a draft protocol. Ideal for researchers at any stage working in social or environmental science. evidencesynthesisschool.github.io

Earlier this year I was awarded a merit in a @onewater_blue-@UNESCO photography competition for my work in Almería, Spain, on water scarcity in the intensive greenhouses there. It's now featured online! #photography #water onewater.blue/article/wate...

Check out this set of investigative journalism articles in Untold Magazine, including two from my work in Almería in Spain! #journalism #photojournalism #labour #migration #exploitation #InternationalWorkersDay untoldmag.org/category/dos...

This was a wonderful read full of beauty, rage, bravery, humour, and much more. It covers the experiences of several scientists in @scientistsforxr.earth. It's human in all the best ways, never maudlin but full of love for this world.

Research synthesis is just plain hard 😡 But did you know there's a community that aims to make things easier and more accessible in R 😍 Join us at the free Evidence Synthesis & Meta-analysis in R Conference #ESMARConf2025 Abstracts due real soon: Monday April 21st! #MetaAnalysis #Rstats

It was a real honour to get to know Rachid. His story is like that of tens of thousands, trapped in exploitative labour and forced to travel thousands of miles mostly on foot from Istanbul to southern Spain. Please read his story. #photojournalism #migration #labour #food #farming

Our grocery shelves are stocked year-round thanks to migrant workers like Rachid. The brilliant photojournalist @nealhaddaway.bsky.social tells his story for The New Climate. medium.com/the-new-clim...

A long read for Easter Monday. Our grocery shelves are stocked year-round thanks to migrant workers like Rachid. This is what his life is like. By the brilliant photojournalist @nealhaddaway.bsky.social for The New Climate. [gift link] medium.com/the-new-clim...

Tens of thousands of migrants from Morocco and West Africa end up stuck in exploitative agriculture in South Spain each year producing out tomatoes and peppers - this is Rachid’s story. medium.com/the-new-clim... #migration #farming #spain

These workers, mostly undocumented migrants from Morocco, sustain Spain’s billion-euro greenhouse industry, producing the vegetables that fill European supermarkets. See the full photo story by @nealhaddaway.bsky.social

Observe the fight to the bottom. Supermarkets are slashing prices to win customers, but the ultimate cost will be paid for by the environment and the poorest people locked in food production. Welcome to necrocapitalism. #neoliberalism #necrocapitalism #food www.theguardian.com/business/202...

In The New Climate, @nealhaddaway.bsky.social reports on a new study from Adrift Lab finding plastic ingestion in seabird chicks associated with organ failure. What could this mean for life on Earth, including humans? #PlasticPollution medium.com/the-new-clim...

Very proud to have a chapter in this book - it’s an honour to be featured alongside the other beautiful and heartbreaking, but often hopeful, stories!

A bird might look and act outwardly healthy – but on the inside, ingested plastics are slowly wreaking havoc.

🚨 How Plastics Are Rewiring Nature 🚨 A new study examining effects of low-level plastic ingestion in seabird chicks shows fundamental changes associated with organ failure and Alzheimer’s disease. Read more: medium.com/the-new-clim... #environment #photojournalism #plastics #marineplastics

The key findings reveal that plastic ingestion isn’t just a digestive issue 📸 @nealhaddaway.bsky.social
