Was nicht eingetreten ist: Das es der Wirtschaft gut geht, wenn wir Klimaschutz nicht umsetzen. Was eingetreten ist: Das es der Wirtschaft schlecht geht, wenn wir Klimaschutz nicht umsetzen. Konsequenzen aus der schlecht laufenden Wirtschaft: Noch weniger Klimaschutz.

The conventional wisdom is the Democrats' big climate law failed to deliver votes and then died. That's wrong. My new study finds its factories moved 2.5 million votes—more than Trump's margin. And the law's still alive. My latest in @theatlantic.com. Gift link! www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Bidenomics Was More Successful Than People Think

Conventional wisdom holds that Joe Biden’s bet on climate investment was a bust. The data suggest otherwise.

Bei der Ausrichtung der @bpb.de gegen Links frage ich mich ernsthaft, wer als Expert*in eingestellt wird, welche Bücher verlegt werden sollen, wer Bildungsangebote bestreitet? Im seriösen wissenschaftlichen Bereich gibt es da kaum wen und kaum Literatur, weil es aktuell schlicht kein Thema ist.

I just have zero patience for a public intellectual IN THIS DECADE, pretending that environmental policy isn’t going to involve politics. Look around. Pay any attention at all. Yes, the 60-second ads will lack the nuance of a white paper. Industry ignores your white papers though.

Here a compilation of stupid things library consultants have said to me in solidarity with library pals at Lambeth Libraries where genius consultants has decided that a qualified head of library service post isn't really essential.

Demands: “to publicly pledge to make sweeping changes that include reexamining admissions practices, hiring more conservative faculty, cracking down on student protests, combating grade inflation, reducing foreign donations and lowering tuition.” 1/2

So no I'm not surprised by: "the administration’s latest move was developed in partnership with university leaders, primarily the Association of American Universities, which represents dozens of top research institutions including all eight Ivy League colleges." 🎁 www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

"While the sector experienced a modest post-COVID bump in activity (...) data show that the country's domestic aviation emissions have declined in each of the past three years, descending 22% during the period 2023 through 2025." #Sufficiency works, if we dare. climatetrace.org/news/austria...

Austria and France banned short-haul flights to boost train travel and reduce emissions. Did it work?

Climate TRACE data point to encouraging outcomes, with much greater emissions reduction opportunity if such a shift were widely adopted globally.

Wie hängen ökologischer #Kollaps und gesellschaftliche #Faschisierung in reichen Gesellschaften und reicher Menschen zusammen? Was hat #Islamismus mit Faschismus zu tun? Und wie reagieren wir #Queers darauf, dass die, die uns töten wollen, evtl bald an der Macht sind? Danke @ Timm Kühn & @taz.de

In case there was any lingering doubt about the politics of the Vanderbilt report, I want to note that Linda McMahon referenced the report, even calling it "courageous," in her recent letter telling universities to shape up. So that's who those scholars are in bed with. www.ed.gov/media/docume...

In einem Monat wählt Sachsen-Anhalt und es ist fast schon absurd, wie wenig an Hochschulen außerhalb Sachsen-Anhalts darüber gesprochen wird. Was machen wir, wenn Ulrich Siegmund ein Bundesland regiert? Wie treten wir auf, wenn danach in unserem eigenen Bundesland die AfD gewinnt? Ernsthaft.
