Some people say, "Alongside rapid and drastic decarbonization, carbon dioxide removal (CDR) will be needed to meet climate goals." I say no! Unless we decarbonize drastically, CDR will be useless. So we say, "AFTER rapid and drastic decarbonization, CDR will be needed to meet climate goals."

I find Trump as repulsive as most people here, but as a German, one thing I want to push back on is focusing on one man. Hitler's rise was possible because he was able to exploit the racial hatred and conspiratorial thinking that already existed. It's MAGA acolytes that see Trump as an […]

If you ever wondered what the world would have been like had Lindbergh become president instead of FDR, today is that alternate reality. A world without D-Day, or V-E Day. A world that's never known three-quarters of a century of increasingly prosperous interconnections among peaceful nations […]

I wonder whether those two nasty men who were under house arrest in Romania will get invited to the White House. Nothing would surprise me now.

Today, Trump and Vance showed to the world that USA can't be trusted for anything at all (as long as they are in charge). Dear allies, please don't see USA as an ally anymore, but a nation ready to backstab you for pennies. That's basically what it feels now ... utter anger and shame. #usa […]

Me from 2018: Putin and other billionaires like him working to destroy democracies hate representative government. They hate non-kleptocrats having a role in governance. They seek authoritarian power over ALL non-wealthy people. They hate you and me having ANY power at all. This is a war.

#UCL has just adopted a new AI-driven lecture recording system. It's called Panopto. No doubt the name will have biased the decision. After all, our Patron Auto-Icon and Mascot Jeremy #Bentham (still present but not voting) is the one who dreamed up the #panopticon I'll bet good money that […]

It always amuses me that when people have an issue like this they come to see me, thinking that I'll know what to do about it. This could be fun! Note what's in the background…

I know that it is probably the last thing you want to watch at the moment, but #BBCiPlayer has just available "Shoah" the great mid-1980s Holocaust documentary. Slow, quiet and relentless - based on interviews and recollections from those in the middle of it - it builds up the appalling picture […]

I find it quite astonishing this evening that, in a country that once led the Reformation against the Vatican, that the gentle decline of a good man, also the Pope, is the lead story tonight. He will be missed when he goes - maybe soon soon, maybe not. But will the Church follow his lead or […]
