If you'd like to what scientists working in institutions, grappling with norms of the profession, think about the enormity of what they know & the lack of commensurate action, listen to this by @thierryaaron.bsky.social What does the scientific community owe the public? What does it owes itself?

Kan I huske dengang, alle talte om parallelsamfund? Om det uacceptable i, at lukkede samfund "løste" problemer med kriminel adfærd uden om retsvæsenet?
Looking so much forward to welcoming @veronikakoller.bsky.social as my new colleague at @sdu.dk! I hope this will be a great opportunity to explore the connections between critical language awareness and #ecolinguistics! Welcome, Veronika!
Veronika Koller@veronikakoller.bsky.social · 3mo agoIt's official: after 22 (!) years at @lancslinguistics.bsky.social, I will start as Professor of Organisational Communication at @sdu.dk's Department of Language and Culture on 1 September this year. 1/2 www.sdu.dk/en/om-sdu/in...
On Thursday at 3 PM, I will give an online presentation on the corporeal turn in ecolinguistics. It is hosted by a wonderful lecture series at the University of Lille - Débats sur le débat - organised by Professor Paola Pietrandrea. Open for all! #ecolinguistics
he's counting on people not knowing what a doctor looks like because they don't have healthcare
Acyn@acyn.bsky.social · 4mo agoReporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one.

Jeg er ikke militærkyndig, men dette synes relevant for en mindre stat at tage i betragtning.
On Friday I'm giving a virtual lecture at the Mindanao State University in the Philippines, and before Easter I had a wonderful meeting with one of the many new research teams in Indonesia engaging in #ecolinguistics.
Capitalism traps us w/ invisible coercion, not force. You don't need a knock at the door to make you work. You need to survive. This is how exploitation hides in plain sight. New ep ft Clara Mattei 4/4 8am ET. Find all our ep @ realprogressives.org/macro-n-cheese/ #capitalism #exploitation
When inflation hits, and people start suffering we need to bang on about the following: US IMPERIALISM AND OIL DEPENDENCY ARE THE CAUSES DECARBONIZATION AND ANTI-IMPERIALISM ARE THE SOLUTIONS
THREAD: I’m going to share this thread here to clearly state my perspective on electric vehicles, car dependency and better cities, for all those who frequently ask me about it, including media, elected leaders and many others. Here goes. Please share it frequently if you think it will help. 🧵#EVS
Another banger from the great Bissau-Guinean revolutionary Amílcar Cabral!
tamara nopper@tamaranopper.bsky.social · 5mo agoAmilcar Cabral said, “To have ideology is to know what you want in your own condition… We are not preoccupied with labels you see. We are occupied in the content of the thing, what we are doing, how we are doing it, what chances are we creating for realizing this aim.”
A huge thanks to @repoole.bsky.social for organising the "Language and ecology in the Anthropocene" conference over the past few days. 🙏 It was a great ecolinguistics event, and it was an honour to be invited to give a keynote lecture!
Robert Poole@repoole.bsky.social · 6mo agoI hoped for 100-150 attendees, but there are now 671 registered participants for this week's Symposium on Ecolinguistics. That is unbelievable! It's going to be a great event! #ecolinguistics

Next week, I will give a keynote on "Language, Ecology, and the corporeal in-betweens" at The University of Alabama's "Language and Ecology in the Anthropocene: A Symposium on Ecolinguistics" - a fantastic virtual event organised by @repoole.bsky.social. I look very much forward to it!
Putin pioneered this. No opposition is legitimate. Regular, decent, “ordinary” people cannot possibly be against us because only we represent “the real people.” Tell-tale sign of authoritarianism.
Der er ikke ét medie der har fulgt op på afmonteringen af Vollsmose & Gellerup. Beboerne genhuses 3-4 gange uden støtte eller forklaringer. De modtager kæmperegninger for el-og varme i lejligheder de ikke beboer & ingen hjælper. Det er flygtninge vi taler om.
Marxism is foundational to the discipline of political ecology, and yet in the past few years there’s been a notable decline of Marxist perspectives in the discipline’s leading conferences and forthcoming handbooks. 1/5

‘Remigration’ is a term that comes out of the European far right. Its use by the DHS account is a sign of democratic and epistemic collapse
🌍 Decentring the growing field of ecolinguistics from its Western orientation, "Ecolinguistics, Social Justice and Sustainability" explores the relationship between language and the environment in the Global South. @bloomsburyling.bsky.social Read now 👉 bit.ly/3L5NDmn #OpenAccess #Linguistics
Last week, I hosted two exciting #ecolinguistics events at @sdu.dk. First, Martin Döring (University of Hamburg) presented his work on the usage of ecolinguistic methods in studying local engagement in coastal protection in the Wadden Sea area.

Ever wondered why there is no accessible book-length introduction to ecological economics and the political economy of transitions in Danish? I know I have, so I tried to write one. It is out tomorrow, asking how we analytically should approach whether it is too little, too late and who benefits.
