Looking forward to reading these papers, particularly the first article 'Technology and International Environmental Cooperation' (by @frabitz.bsky.social) Reminds me of earlier work on role of tech in functioning of private regulation (www.cambridge.org/core/journal...)

Right-wing populist parties who disparage & seek to dismantle international environmental agreements pose a grave threat to the liberal international order. Here, GEP author Nguyen Khoi Huynh investigates how populists influence the design of IEAs. Required (open-access!) reading for troubled times:

Recommended Sunday reading in a stormy political climate: GEP's *most read* article ever! Here's @aklin.bsky.social & @mattomildenberger.bsky.social's take-no-prisoners analysis of "why institutional and political responses to climate change may ineffectively target the wrong policy-making dilemma."

Sobering stat from David Downie's latest GEP article: "Men currently lead 80% of the 15 global intergovernmental organizations particularly important to global environmental politics, and have held 90% of these positions in the past." More on gender distributions in GEP leadership positions here:

Has empowerment in the face of apocalypse ever been more urgent? Paul Steinberg's latest GEP paper explores how increasing our capacity to identify/fulfill goals over long time horizons & multiple issues can "benefit the whole person & whole community." Yes, please. Free to download, read, share:

A great opportunity to bring back this article I published last year in @gepjournal.bsky.social direct.mit.edu/glep/article...

"An underappreciated danger of our growing reliance on AI is that we are atrophying the parts of our brains that are most necessary for confronting the climate crisis [...] that are capable of creative, forward-thinking problem solving." https://bit.ly/4gO2Cwc #OpenAccess @gepjournal.bsky.social

How might climate action be framed in such a way as to encourage sustained participation in movements for social change while promoting the well-being of participants? Paul Steinberg's article in @gepjournal.bsky.social is now ungated & free to access until May 21st: https://bit.ly/42Cb4ua

So pleased to be able to follow @gepjournal.bsky.social on this platform. Looking forward to sharing and discussing new research from this great journal! direct.mit.edu/glep
