For 60 years, unclassified US defense and intelligence reports assessed security threats from environmental, #water, and #climate risks. These assessments are now being deleted, censored, and canceled. I document, annotate, and link to them here (first of 3 posts): www.gleick.com/blog/climate...

Super excited that my new book Ancient Mythologies of the Wilderness - Narrative, Nature and Religious Identity Formation from the Babylonians to the Late Antique Christians is coming out next Thursday, April 17, with Cambridge University Press & Assessment 😄 🥳 👇 www.cambridge.org/core/books/a...

In two days, the Afghanistan Women’s National Football Team will be absent from the 2026 AFC Women’s Asian Cup Qualifiers draw. This marks the second World Cup-qualifying cycle from which the team has been excluded since 2021. FIFA must recognize, support Afghan women’s team in exile ✊ ⚽

KRONIKK: Det er krevende å tenke det, skummelt å si det og nesten umulig å skrive det. Men det er likevel sant.

Tydelig svar fra UiBs rektor og rektorkandidat: UiB skal være tydelige forkjempere for den akademiske friheten ved å støtte UiB-forskere under press, jobbe nasjonalt og internasjonalt for å reverse endringer i USA og bygge beredskap for å sikre fri forskning i Norge og Europa, støtte kollegaer i USA

Støtt fri forskning ved å skrive ut denne plakaten på et A4-ark, gå utenfor kontoret ditt kl 12 i dag og ta en selfie av deg selv med plakaten - så poster du det på sosiale medier med hashtag #standupforscience2025. Er du i Bergen så kom gjerne på Muséplassen kl 12. Dette er tiden for å si fra!!
