Can you do an IPCC-style assessement for a small country like 🇦🇹 Austria?   Yes, we did! The Second Austrian Assessment Report on Climate Change #AAR2 was written by ~200 researchers coordinated by #IIASAVienna, @bokuvienna.bsky.social & Uni Innsbruck… @ccca.ac.at #APCC aar2.ccca.ac.at/en

Jag rekommenderar @syre-tidningen.bsky.social och speciellt det nya specialnummer #Visionskollen som analyserar om och hur vi kan leva inom planetens gränser:: tidningensyre.se/newsletter/v... Regeringen har tagit bort presstödet. Kanske ni kan tänka er att stödja tidningen genom en prenumeration?

Samma dag som Uppsala Universitets styrelse gick ut med ett skarpt uttalande i relation till Gaza intervjuades jag i student tidskriften "Lundagård" med anledning av att jag skrivit under #uppsaladeclaration. Håller opinionen på att vända, till och med i #Lund? www.lundagard.se/2025/05/21/l...

Berlin and German authorities are moving to deport foreign nationals for participating in demonstrations against Israel’s war on Gaza. This now includes EU citizens. I wish I could read highly recommendable articles like this in the German press. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

The US still showing the way? “What we’re seeing here is straight out of the far right’s playbook.” theintercept.com/2025/03/31/g...

Trump is dead serious about everything. Invading Greenland. Invading Canada. Sacrificing Ukraine. Emptying Gaza. Destroying voting rights. Claiming a 3rd term. Mass deportations. White supremacy. All of it.

Is it time for the #EU to embrace a postgrowth era?🌱 Max Koch argues that decoupling GDP growth from resource use is insufficient to meet planetary limits. He advocates for a ‘sustainable welfare deal’ focused on environmental and social goals. 🔗 onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...
