Black Mirror was bang on with the Be Right Back episode - preying on the vulnerable

To be fair there is a lot that is hopeful about how to use legal instruments. It’s very interesting 😀 will look at the paper tho, as I agree generally, it’s not good news

Thanks - I was referring to the framing in the threat assessment itself, which was then repeated by journalists.

I have taken it up with them - but here I was addressing your messaging about the report. I’m not only focused on root causes- but overlooking them risks designing ‘solutions’/responses that make things worse for the most vulnerable eg hammer refugees instead of billionaires

The methodology used in the report is not clear (nor public) explaining how the authors decided on which ecosystems constitute the biggest risk/threat if they collapse.

Thanks for covering this @julietterowsell.bsky.social & @chrishavergal.bsky.social they just announced more reviews & restructures, in the middle of all this.

Thanks Amy, it’s really tough here so the support is appreciated. You are right - it’s felt like being in a washing machine for years, it just never stops

Thanks, really glad for your support ❤️

Thanks Alex - it’s brutal

Thanks - really appreciate the support

Thanks Steve - totally agree 👍

Thanks Des, we remain determined, but it is brutal

I wrote a whole book about it - ideas of crisis & urgency can lead to more militarised and violent approaches to conservation; these ultimately undermine environmental protection & result in significant abuses
