This ought to work

Ich habe 5 so gute Freunde auf Professuren, dass ich ihr Leben gut kenne u beurteilen kann. Nur mit 2 wäre ich in Bezug auf meine entfristete Mitarbeiterstelle trotz deutlich höheren Einkommens bereit zu tauschen u bei 1 von diesen 2 funktioniert es auch nur gut, weil extrem unterstützende Beziehung

Ich fand es sehr befreiend als ich das für mich formuliert hatte. Es gibt einem auch eine ganz neue Perspektive auf "das System" und die Dinge, die es vermeintlich von einem fordert.

This is absolutely true - so true I feel it in my bones - and it requires a very different academia than the one we have. We need transformative changes, from internal and external rewards systems to engagement with communities, decision-makers, the private sector etc. and of course teaching.

Since it is the season for revision requests with absurd deadlines such as 1st January 2026 for a major revision. To anyone who needs to hear this: That is the submission system. It is PERFECTLY FINE to ask politely for an extension of the deadline.

My wonderful colleague Marie Oltmer from Carl von Ossietzky University of Oldenburg and I were curious how issues such as insect protection "become a thing" and which actors play what role in this. So we set out to explore this. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/...

Well done on this constructive contribution with some very useful basic advice.

Also, don't engage in rewriting. If something is unclear, that's all they need to know. It's their job to make it clearer.

while we're here: people don't read papers in order, and they usually look at figures first, so try to have the figures tell the whole story. Fig 1: schematic, what are we talking about, main Q Fig 2: what did you actually do Fig 3: what did you find, main results

I'm excited to announce this new paper we have in The Lancet Planetary Health. We show that the world is not moving towards a just and ecological future for all.

When the engine of #prosperity does not pull every wagon, the carriage grows mutinous. As @boehmwolf.bsky.social writes in @diepressecom.bsky.social, #Europe’s left-behind are not mute. There, economic drift becomes political rupture & the centre bleeds #votes to the margins doi.org/10.1080/0013...

Next week has been exhausting.

Philomena Cunk continues to ask the deep and important philosophical questions.

As many federal governments slow — or reverse — climate action, Austria's capital, Vienna, wants to show how cities can take the lead. 🍃🇮🇩 The first in a series (!) of positive climate solution stories, only on @npr.org 📻🎧

Prominent climate communicators continue to "joke" that what Trump is doing is "degrowth". It is not, and such claims are actively harmful. A quick🧵

"In April 2025, while most of the world was clutching pearls over trade war tit-for-tat tariffs, China calmly walked over to the supply chain and yanked out a handful of critical bolts. The bolts are made of dysprosium, terbium, tungsten, indium and yttrium..." 1/2 cleantechnica.com/2025/04/05/c...

Notting this for later

Adorable. The Boston ducks have protest signs #handsoff

My wife’s (the ID doc) favorite sign from today in Chicago.

Again aiming for the wisdom of the crowd: I am looking for scientific papers/publications with excellent #visualizations of their findings (charts, maps, ...). Not #dataviz-papers, but instead papers from other disciplines, applying the principles of #dataviz. Do you have any favourites?

International students are being hunted on their campuses. For raising their voices for justice. This is pure evil.

🚨Japanese convenience stores are endlessly fascinating. They are also precursors to platforms in Asia as I show in this newly published article. I've been researching this lineage for years and am thrilled to share -out in Social Media + Society now! 🚨 journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/...

Very pleased to announce we are running our PhD course Innovation and Sustainability Transitions May 12-16th again here at HVL in Bergen. Application deadline 31th of March. norsi.no/course/susta...

Join our GeoST webinar series on nature-society interactions! NB sign-up needed. First webinar 27th March with @cchlebna.bsky.social and @ad-andersen.bsky.social

You are all warmly invited to join us discussing conceptual inroads and potential synergies with neighbouring disciplines on the matter of nature-society interactions in the wider realm of geographies of sustainability transition. Great pleasure organising this with @markussteen.bsky.social & C Binz

Great and hugely important initiative!

🌍 Sustainable Regional Transition vs. Green Growth: Are They the Same? @johannessuitner.bsky.social and I have been reflecting on this question and concluded that, despite their frequent and intentional overlap, they are not.

No, the meeting did not go badly for Ukraine. It exposed in the most undeniable, unequivocal way possible the pro-Putin commitments of the president and vice president. That was information Americans and allies needed to have clear before them.

Trump: "You don't have the cards!" Zelenskyy: "We're not playing cards" The highlight of one of the most extraordinary 'presidential' exchanges I've ever seen in my 4 and bit decades on this planet

New paper out today: In this editorial for a @regionalstudies.bsky.social special issue, @ronboschma.bsky.social, @elisagiuliani.bsky.social, @simonaiammarino.bsky.social and I discuss recent research on the Dark Side of Innovation and its Geography: www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Mission accomplished! Der Star des Marktes. Alleine ich durfte mehrfach erklären was das ist, und was ich damit mache. ☺️🥬💚🥦

Our article in the Conversation - reveals that only half of ecological features required on new housing estates are actually there. It's a systemic problem of housebuilders not putting them in, management companies not maintaining them and a lack of enforcement theconversation.com/property-dev...

Good to be done with the backlog of reviews... But I seem to have mellowed a good bit. ☺️

Wien, ich mag dich ja sehr gerne. Aber wo versteckst du den Grünkohl? 🥬💚 #missinggrünkohl @tbroekel.bsky.social

I recently came across a publication with a map that showed European regions (NUTS2 or NUTS3) based on their challenges/potentials for sustainability transitions. It seems I didn't bookmark it, though. Any of you any ideas?

Apparently we are allowed to repeat ourselves here.... Also 🧪🌏🌎🌍😊
