Who out there shares the best urban transformation before-and-after pictures? It’s a tactic I consider particularly powerful & effective. Bonus points for sharing your favourite B&A examples. Example below from @modacitylife.com from Torino, Italy where we were just both speaking. #UrbanistShoutOut

I went to #JuliaCumes & #LipeBorges’s photography exhibit on Cape Cod’s immigrant community. And read Omar El Akkad’s incredible One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This. Here’s what emerged… #CapeCod #CapeCodMuseumofArt #OmarElAkkad #immigrant meerasub.substack.com/p/a-reason-t...

Bill Gates sure picked an interesting day to downplay the threat of climate change

Go, Jane, go! She's rounded up hundreds of Hollywood figures to revive the First Amendment organization her father championed. Fonda, in her late eighties, is in her prime as a climate champion and a powerful voice for justice.

What a life, #JaneGoodall, untiring til the end. Thank you. This "Love Song to Jane" from Dana Lyons seems appropriate. www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LXg...

#PubDay for @royscranton.bsky.social‬’s #Impasse, from @stanfordpress.bsky.social‬. If our world is a “Rube Goldberg machine held together w/ fiber-optic cable, fossil fuels, shipping containers, & narrative,” & that machine is falling apart…what do we do? #book #climatecrisis #philosophy #history

FERN's story with Orion, “How fungi are surviving—and even thriving—in a warming world,” by Meera Subramanian, is included in this special issue, both in print and online. To read it online, head over to FERN's website. @orionmagazine.bsky.social‬ @meerasub.bsky.social‬

This story, the news that Camp Mystic had argued to remove some buildings from the previous flood map & the OR fire map debacle, strongly suggest that we need a way to insulate hazard & risk designations from politics. Hard (impossible?), but maybe modeling on the indep. fed. reserve. Thoughts?

Turns out firing everyone at the National Weather Service means the service for national weather forecasts doesn’t get served…

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analysed the cost of solar in 2004. Today, building a fence with solar panels can be cheaper than using wood.

Note I will keep you anonymous in my article. 🌍🧪

Today's heat wave was made FIVE TIMES more likely by fossil fueled climate change Yet Republicans are trying this week to pass a bill that would decimate the energy transition and sell off swaths of public lands to fossil fuel companies

Jaclyn Moyer won the 2025 Oregon Book Award for Gold Hill, of which I said, “Legacies of land and family reach across generations and continents ...You will never bite into a piece of bread, or visit your local farmer’s market, in quite the same way again.” Read it! literary-arts.org/2025/04/anno...

"I love teaching about infelicitous speech acts, because my life is so full of them. To be a foreigner is to be perpetually wasting arrows, missing the mark." Lovely piece by Lily Kelting in ‪@offassignment.bsky.social‬.   www.offassignment.com/noequivalent...

Based on my examination of Chenowith and Stephan’s data, 1.5% is the fraction of the population needed for a mass protest to have a 50-50 shot of succeeding. This movement is growing and the size of the crowds today is a favorable sign. Analysis: samwang.substack.com/p/how-to-rec...

Do you double check your receipt when you buy groceries? Maybe you should. Kroger stores in multiple states show a pattern of listing expired sale prices on the shelves and then ringing up regular prices at checkout, an investigation by the Guardian US, @thefern.org and @consumerreports.org ‬found.

Make no mistake: the House budget bill, as currently written, is effectively a full repeal of the Inflation Reduction Act clean energy measures. This renders all IRA tax credits as-good-as-dead. Goodbye nuclear industry. Goodbye US manufacturing investments. Hello higher energy prices.
