Desqualificacions. El sudari de Laertes de les polítiques d’habitatge | Lleiengel.cat
El Pla Territorial Sectorial d’Habitatge de Catalunya (PTSHC) no reverteix la insuficiència i els errors d'anteriors polítiques d'habitatge

I res, que he fet aquests càlculs i els he dibuixat al mapa perquè tinguem temps d'anar corregint el tret. Potser un semblarà una cosa per a nerds de l'habitatge, però jo diria -ja em perdonareu la immodèstia- que és important...

No sé si té sentit que tinguem aquest debat sense parlar -per exemple- d'habitatge, de dotació de serveis o de la presència de comunitats d'acollida, però fins i tot obviant aquests factors, em sembla atrevit afirmar que la presència de persones estrangeres no té concordança amb el mercat de treball

While I'm inclined to believe this, I am curious about the assignment mechanism that justifies the description as causal - relying on people who opt to deactivate their account is correlational evidence. Also wondering why causal is in quotes in the headline.

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

Las COP solo van a empezar a girar cuando tengamos una coalición global de electroestados que apoyen a los países más vulnerables. Esa es la tarea de hoy: empujar una revolución electrotécnica justa, construir hegemonía eléctrica y un modelo de desarrollo renovable, destruir el poder fósil global.
El resultado de la COP30 es un fracaso sin paliativos al volver a no mencionar el abandono de los combustibles fósiles en su declaración final. Ahora bien, las COP solo muestran la relación de fuerzas geopolíticas actual y el momento crítico en que se encuentra la descarbonización global.

As I argue in The Language of Climate Politics: we are stuck not because climate politics are polarized, but because they’re UNIFIED (across the right and center-left) on the lie that we can keep using oil and gas but still deal with climate change anyway.
Here’s a good example of that discourse.
Here’s a good example of that discourse.
European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen said today that the fight against climate change was not against the fuels that cause it — only the pollution they emit.
Von der Leyen says EU is not fighting fossil fuels, only emissions
The comment could undermine European countries’ push at COP30 to move away from coal, oil and gas.
