It is a privilege to do work for Inside Climate News, sad story to write
Sweden, a once-admired climate leader, is backtracking on its climate goals. This comes as part of an EU trend, as the U.S. also abandons international climate agreements.

Väldigt roligt att prata skogsskydd och konstruktivt hopp i dagens Vetenskapsradion! Sara Sällström har varit på plats i Costa Rica och följer upp på min bok om Barnens regnskog.
En synnerligen aktuell historia även i dagens värld!

Marcus var en av dem som räddade Barnens regnskog - Vetenskapsradion
Hur gick det med regnskogen som svenska barn ville rädda på 1980-talet? Ett av barnen har som vuxen återvänt till skogen för att se vad som hänt.

The new local journalism may not be what it might seem. Well worth the time to listen
Miranda's one of the best investigative climate journalists out there. Learned so much talking with her about fossil fuel companies and fake news!
It was great joining @sammyroth.bsky.social on the LA Times’ Boiling Point podcast this week to talk about the recent Greenpeace trial and the fake newspapers that showed up on the eve of jury picking

Trump has done the same damage to our health, environment and security as to our markets, it's just that there isn't a stock ticker that measures the impact so clearly

In today’s political context, it’s more dangerous for civil society to do #2.
Two common misconceptions are on my mind today: 1. Overestimating the power of a single day of protest. 2. Underestimating the power of a single day of protest.

Yesterday, I was intellectually inspired & deeply concerned, listening live to impressive historian @timothysnyder.blsky.social comparing the politics of our time not to the 1930s, or the 1800s - but to Scandinavian paganism in the 9th century. A new, very old, take

The Institute of Museum and Library Services has long received bipartisan support. But after years of trying, President Donald Trump has delivered it a crushing blow.

China, Russia and India have dispatched emergency teams and supplies to earthquake-ravaged Myanmar. So have Thailand, Malaysia and Vietnam. The U.S., the richest country in the world and once its most generous provider of foreign aid, has sent nothing.
Trump’s U.S.A.I.D. Cuts Hobble Earthquake Response in Myanmar
While China, Russia and other nations have rushed emergency response teams to the devastated country, the U.S., once a leader in foreign aid, has been slow to act.
