Le productivisme se radicalise : la CR appelle les agriculteurs à ne pas respecter les restrictions d’eau. À force de s'asseoir sur l'intérêt général en normalisant par la loi l'accaparement de l'eau par l'agroindustrie, la Macronie a mis fin à l’État de droit en matière environnementale.
La Coordination rurale, galvanisée par l’adoption de la loi d’urgence agricole, appelle les agriculteurs à ne pas respecter les restrictions d’eau
Les appels à ne pas respecter les restrictions des arrêtés sécheresse des préfectures se sont multipliés de la part de responsables locaux de la CR dans le Sud-Ouest, au grand dam des autorités.

So, jetzt sind die zentralen Änderungen der Ampel am Gebäudeenergiegesetz tatsächlich zurückgenommen worden. Abgesehen von den Problemen, die das fürs Klima bedeutet, ist es auch eine deshalb schlechte Nachricht, weil es zeigt, dass eine weitgehend faktenfreie Kampagne erfolgreich sein kann.

We have a new paper out in PNAS. Susanna’s thread outlines our findings. The big picture takeaway is that well-designed climate education (active, personally relevant, science-based) can complement fiscal and regulatory instruments by building public support for ambitious policy!

Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

Radical-right parties are often linked to the “left-behind”. But supporting them when stigma is strong is costly. So who is willing to pay that cost early on, before it’s normalized? In my new WP, I argue that breaking political norms is socially stratified. 🧵👇
It’s striking how much these patterns are similar across many European counties (both the center left one and the radical right one). And yet there’s much work to be done in shifting the discourse from competing narratives that have little empirical backing.
Labour's next biggest losses are to left-liberal parties (Liberal Democrats and Greens). Reform's growth in support has mostly come from the Conservatives and non-voting (much less from Labour). These reflect patterns of party-bloc voting that we saw in the 2024 UK GE: tinyurl.com/y5pv7thw

Et c'est justement la semaine prochaine que devraient être publiées les premières estimations pour les émissions de GES nationales du 1er trimestre qui devraient être très mauvaises. On compte sur les politiques pour enfin réagir (et sur les journalistes pour les interroger sur le sujet).
🥵 Vous avez chaud aujourd'hui ? Ce n'est rien par rapport à ce qui nous attend. Mardi, on pourrait atteindre 40 °C l'après-midi sur une large partie du pays. Sans parler des températures minimales à l'aube, qui s'annoncent étouffantes dans le sud.
