Devinez qui on a croisé dans les couloirs de la #COP30 à Belém... 🤡

Thank you for everything, Jane. www.theguardian.com/science/2025...

"Nous pourrons compter le nbre d’oiseaux tués, ce qui nous permettra ensuite de mieux adapter le nbre de prélèvements", insiste le cabinet de la ministre. Et si on proposait aussi que l'on abatte tous les arbres des forets pour avoir un inventaire juste. QUEL ENFER! www.lemonde.fr/planete/arti...

@cnrsecologie.bsky.social regrette profondément l'adoption de cette loi à la vision court-termiste & ses conséquences graves sur l’environnement, qui méprise santé & bien-être de la population & le rôle des espèces sauvages dans la prod. agricole. La communauté scientifique n'a pas été entendue.

Visez un peu le niveau de cet "éminent" député RN. Si son parti avait la majorité, monsieur Jacobelli serait ministre. Mais qui a envie de confier le pouvoir à un homme de 55 ans qui fait les mêmes blagues pas drôles qu'un ado qui en a 40 de moins ? Cette lourdeur au secours... 🫠

Un grand bravo à ma collègue du @cired.bsky.social Lauriane Mouysset, qui fait partie des 4 économistes nommés par le jury du Prix du meilleur jeune économiste 2025 ! Entretien avec Perrine Mouterde de @lemonde.fr : www.lemonde.fr/economie/art... Site web : laurianemouysset.wordpress.com/research/

Opinion from the FT's Editorial Board: 'The US and European countries that tout Israel as an ally that shares their values have issued barely a word of condemnation. They should be ashamed of their silence, and stop enabling Netanyahu to act with impunity.' www.ft.com/content/f5fd...

Hi #econsky and conservation friends, if you need a hopeful story, the RCT we completed in eastern DRC might be for you. It is about a viable path to clean (electric) cooking, human development, and the protection of endangered wildlife, including mountain gorillas 🧵🧪 tinyurl.com/4jccmcaw

This is absolutely horrifying. Turkish graduate at Tufts student is picked up and removed to undisclosed destination by ICE, apparently because she wrote a pro-Palestinian oped.

This was one of the most important public health data programs of all time. The Trump people are like the Taliban or the fanatics who destroyed Timbuktu.

Submission deadline for 2025 #EUDN PhD Workshop is Friday March 14 - doctoral students in development economics please apply! Hosted by @cerdi.bsky.social in Clermont-Ferrand from May 15-16, it will be a great opportunity to network and get feedback. #EconSky #EconConf eudn25phd.sciencesconf.org

It doesn’t feel good to criticize other’s work: but this is how science advances. In Nature today we respond to a high-profile paper (by Jedediah Brodie & colleagues) about the impact of protected areas on wildlife in southeast Asia. www.nature.com/articles/s41...

All Protocol Observed Welcome to Issue 189 of The Continent. M23 fighters are marching on to take a second city in the DRC. The Tanzanian president is hosting a leader’s conference to address the crisis. But Tanzania is not a disinterested party. Read it here: bit.ly/TheContinent...

"Rwanda has put $1bn of global aid under threat by taking part in the invasion of the Democratic Republic of the Congo, the UK foreign secretary, David Lammy, has said" Let's hope teh EU will follow.. www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

Rwanda's Western donors should be hanging their heads in shame at having allowed this - by their complacency and indifference - to happen in a city of 2m people. x.com/BBCAfrica/st...

Relaying here the recent post by LUCHA, one of the main civil society organization in Goma regarding the horrible situation in Goma. Already 6 days that 2 millions people have no more running water and electriticy. Already 2 days that fights happen in the city. And no internet to hear from friends

Did you know? Over 100 parks across 16 African countries are co-managed between states and NGOs! These Collaborative Management Partnerships (CMPs) are ambitious. Our new @pnas.org paper maps CMPs and quantifies their impact on deforestation. A long🧵 doi.org/10.1073/pnas.2411348121

The first chapter of my PhD entitled **Who carries the burden of climate change? Heterogeneous impact of droughts in sub-Saharan Africa** has just been published in the *American Journal of Agricultural Economics*. doi.org/10.1111/ajae... Here is a summary of my findings!

To finish off 2024, I'm glad to see our paper published yesterday in @pnas.org. It focuses on protected areas, innovative management arrangements between State & non-State actors across 16 African countries, and their implications for deforestation. More to come later! www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/...

Après qu’un groupe d’agriculteurs, liés à la FNSEA, a muré le 28 novembre l’entrée de l’Inrae, nous, un collectif de plus de 240 chercheurs soulignons que des transitions radicales sont nécessaires et que la recherche doit rester indépendante pour faire face aux enjeux monumentaux du XXIᵉ siècle

The oligarchic embrace is happening before our very eyes. This is the road that gets us to competitive authoritarianism.

I find this recent paper in World Development incredibly interesting. A story between fairness, politics and evolving coalitions between indigenous people, parks and forest conservation. The case study is in the eastern Congo. Congratulations to the authors doi.org/10.1016/j.wo...

Il n’y a pas d’impasse climatique. Il y a une incapacité à se projeter dans l’avenir. Je propose dans ce nouveau texte de nous appuyer sur les pivots géopolitiques, sociaux et culturels qui permettent d’alimenter un imaginaire politique écologique. legrandcontinent.eu/fr/2023/10/3...
