The justification for criminalizing climate-related offenses is a very important topic. Congratulations @santiagotruccone.bsky.social !

Diary of the transdisciplinary reflective equilibrium pilot

Yesterday was the second session of the pilot.

For the first time, we met and interacted. It was so inspiring to see these women and transgender people, who are so deeply engaged in grassroots work, yet so committed to this pilot.

What is happening in Gaza has shaken the conscience of the world.

Man-made famine can never be a weapon of war. This must stop.

EU aid to Gaza far outweighs that of any other partner.

But of course, Europe needs to do more.

Here are measures for a way forward ↓
