O desmatamento nunca foi o único problema, mas era o maior. Agora temos menos floresta a cada ano e mais degradação rolando. Um tipo gigante agora é fogo. A @erikaberenguer.bsky.social deu o papo aqui no vídeo youtu.be/jy3X8jwB6U4?...

New article by our group in @pnas.org 📄🌳 We often focus on stopping deforestation —but what about forest degradation? Are existing deforestation policies offering any protection against this problem? www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/... #Amazon #Deforestation #ClimatePolicy #Conservation

You cannot talk like this about any other minority in America. And if it was any other president’s adviser who said something like this about any other minority, it’d be the instant end of their presidency.

For interdisciplinary scientists lacking a home, one path forward is building a new community of researchers with shared interests, say Laura Vang Rasmussen, @rachgarr.bsky.social, @sofiananni.bsky.social, @nramankutty.bsky.social, & Ariane de Bremond @glp-earth.bsky.social. eos.org/opinions/cre...

Almost as remarkable as the flooding is having a public service that actually functions. There are crazy floods often in the us and people are largely on their own. #climate change

Billionaires are 4,000 times more likely to hold political office than ordinary people. Over half of the world’s largest media companies have billionaire owners. 9 of the top 10 social media companies are run by just six billionaires. 📖 oi-files-d8-prod.s3.eu-west-2.amazonaws.com/s3fs-public/...

New Oxfam Inequality report just dropped: Billionaire wealth has grown by 80% since 2020. The world’s 12 richest billionaires have more wealth than the poorest half of humanity. Elon Musk is the first ever person to have over half a trillion dollars wealth.

Gutsy and fascinating work developing a chicken pain index, in essence, as a path to more ethical animal-agriculture futures in a protein-hungry world by @cleoverk.bsky.social 🧪🐓. Paper and summary: 🧵

"In total, the Gates Foundation (formerly known as the The Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation) has donated $3,519,491 to Lomborg’s think tank. The most recent tax filing on record includes a 2022 donation to the Copenhagen Consensus Center worth $1.25 million" - @rtakver.bsky.social, @desmog.com

😢 "Perhaps the most striking findings is that the British public vastly overestimates the cost getting to net zero by almost 14,000%, fueling scepticism & a reluctance to pay. On average, they estimate it will need 28% of GDP by 2050, compared to @thecccuk.bsky.social forecast of just 0.2%"

I so admire Gideon Levy - Israeli Journalist, Haaretz.

A must read. 🔥🔥🔥 I have to wonder how many of the men at her Penn post just resented her bc of her deep values, her commitment to stick by them, and her clear success. …happy to recruit but loathe to retain if you have a spine.

Can someone please invent an American to British translation device? Basically take whatever an American would say directly and then fluff it up in indirect and passive language. Make sure it throws in an “I’m afraid” at the beginning of every sentence for Oxbridgey types. Thanks!

Though tbh when men yell at me now I do tell them to calm down knowing just how infuriating that will be!
