"Even if the U.S. were at war with the traffickers, an order to kill all the boat’s occupants if they were no longer able to fight “would in essence be an order to show no quarter, which would be a war crime,” said Huntley, now director of the national security law program at Georgetown Law."

There is change in the air. Drying or more wet, depending on where you live. This is extremely bad news for Europe, although not surprise. I remember @wolfgangcramer.net publishing about this back in 2016 (about drying Mediterranean), see next below 1/3

Reupping this as BBC journalists now can’t even quote the censored statement of fact. This is appalling. Facts matter! Evidence matters! This isn’t even an opinion!
This isn’t just the BBC censoring an opinion, as objectionable as that would be. This is the BBC censoring an historical fact. There is a mountain of evidence to back up this claim.
I wish I didn’t have to share this. But the BBC has decided to censor my first Reith Lecture.

They deleted the line in which I describe Donald Trump as “the most openly corrupt president in American history.” /1

Prof of Medicine @hughmontgomery.bsky.social says climate is biggest risk to health.

“I am scared” he says.

Web of impacts of climate lead to wars and societal collapse.

Plant-based diets and cuts to new oil and gas are among the tools Gov needs to promote.

New challenge for busy researchers who lament that they don't have time to think these days:

For 2026, plan for thinking time, or time to do nothing (which is when some of the best ideas happen). Protect it. Make it sacrosanct.

If you don't take your thinking time seriously, no-one else will.
This banger from the academia / writing / research meme stash definitely has wider applicability but I do really like using it for coaching, mentoring, and workshop activities when we talk about the importance of saying 'no' to things as researchers. #academicchatter #academicsky #PhDchat

My lifelong friend Democrat Peter Chatzky is running to unseat MAGA Congressman Mike Lawlor in New York. Hope you’ll give him a follow! #NY17
My favorite part of the campaign has been meeting so many new people, talking, and learning from all of you. I’m thankful for the memories we’ve made along the way.

Scrapping the two-child limit in full is a monumental decision. Well done to all involved in the Child Poverty Strategy, and everyone who has made the case against the policy.

OBR says scrapping costs £3 billion in 2029-30 and will lift 450,000 out of poverty

IMPORTANT: NASA map shows temperatures of up to 160 degrees on Phoenix streets & sidewalks. All that unrelenting concrete and asphalt for cars. Not nearly enough trees. They start with ridiculous heat that’s only getting worse with the #ClimateCrisis, and then make it much worse with bad design.

🔥 Rachel Reeves says there’s a “hole” in the public finances.

A new decade-long Brexit study quantifies it:

A 6–8% hit to GDP

That's £180bn-£240bn a year

It means less tax revenue and so less money for everything.

Brexit made Britain MUCH poorer.

If the fossil fuel industry does not want to be mentioned in the COP texts then they shouldn’t be allowed to attend the event either. My 2 cents.
