The Israeli Government has made an ad about the Global Sumud Flotilla headed for Gaza, and it's surprsingly honest and informative.

Amorcer la déchéance de nationalité d'un citoyen américain uniquement car... c'est un opposant de gauche qui a des chances d'être élu maire de New-York.

Voici l'intention explicite de l'administration Trump.

Sans exagération aucune : Chaque jour qui passe, la démocratie s'estompe aux Etats-Unis.

Imagine, just imagine, the response from the West if the Iranian government, in international waters, had rammed and then boarded a European ship, filled with European citizens, and taken them captive.

But it's Israel, so it's all good. Our citizens don't matter.

This dataset offers a valuable resource for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners aiming to design more targeted and effective climate adaptation strategies.

This approach ensures consistency with SSP narratives on economic growth, income inequality, income distribution, population dynamics, and settlement expansion.

Our study introduces a novel, top–down iterative methodology to generate decadal, high-resolution (1 km) maps of disposable income across Europe for the entire 21st century, fully aligned with the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs).

Until now, most studies have relied on broad proxies like GDP per capita, often overlooking the crucial role of income redistribution mechanisms and their impact on vulnerability.

Understanding future climate risk in Europe requires more than just climate projections—it demands detailed insights into how socioeconomic vulnerability will evolve.

Excited to share our latest publication in Environmental Research Letters: "High-resolution income projections over the 21st century in Europe consistent with the Shared Socioeconomic Pathways" with the great @vallet-ameline.bsky.social & @celineguivarch.bsky.social

En France, la pollution aux particules fines augmente l'absentéisme des salariés, baisse leur productivité, affecte les consommateurs et nuit in fine aux entreprises.

J'explique les résultats de notre étude menée avec Hélène Ollivier au micro de @vgarin.bsky.social pour RTL: shorturl.at/nbubg
Pollution de l'air : voici son coût astronomique pour la santé et l'économie en France
PODCAST - La pollution de l'air est responsable de 45.000 décès prématurés par an en France, mais l'impact ne concerne pas seulement notre santé.

Who's responsible for the climate crisis?

Two new studies try to answer this question: but whichever way we slice it, the answer doesn't change much.

The wealthiest are disproportionately responsible for the greatest emissions, and that's why climate change is so unfair.

🔴New paper!

Next month, the #FfD4 UN conference will try to find resources to finance sustainable development, in the context of plummeting foreign aid.

Meanwhile, I show that extreme poverty cannot be eradicated by 2030 (SDG1) without international transfers.

"Bonobos [one of our closest relatives] refuse to participate when faced with unequal rewards."

The vast majority of people similarly want fairness between us, but almost always end up with leaders who don't.

That mismatch is the single biggest barrier to a better world.

Bonobos refuse to participate when faced with unequal rewards
The question of whether non-human animals have a sense of fairness has been widely debated. Some studies suggest that primates and other cooperative species show an aversion to inequity, while others ...

In 25 years of covering national security, I’ve never seen a story like this: Senior Trump officials discussed planning for the U.S. attack on Yemen in a Signal group--and inadvertently added the editor-in-chief of The Atlantic. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...
The Trump Administration Accidentally Texted Me Its War Plans
U.S. national-security leaders included me in a group chat about upcoming military strikes in Yemen. I didn’t think it could be real. Then the bombs started falling.
