I’ve been reflecting on my time at #WEF25 with @arcticbasecamp.bsky.social. I learned a lot and, while progress is slow, I met great people pushing for climate action. That gives me hope. I wrote about my experience for the Shackleton Journal: tinyurl.com/EcologistInDavos 🧪🦑🦉🌊

New post on The Climate Brink from Zeke @hausfath.bsky.social about our climate future. With current policies, we’re on track for a bit less than 3C, with 2030 NDCs we’re on track for about 2.5C, and with net zero pledges we’re on track for a bit less than 2C. www.theclimatebrink.com/p/moving-awa...

Instead of listing my publications, as the year draws to an end, I want to shine the spotlight on the commonplace assumption that productivity must always increase. Good research is disruptive and thinking time is central to high quality scholarship and necessary for disruptive research.

This. 10000000%. I don't get much of this, really. And aside from a few exceptions, research has all felt superficial lately because that's what I have time/energy to complete. A sabbatical (which we don't have at the museum) would be so welcome. Alas.
