IT’S NOT AN OFFSET IF IT WAS ALREADY €&;)@ HAPPENING

The new normal is a moving target. None of our systems are designed for that.

Oh, this participant is really not going to like Chapter 4 (barriers to transformative change and how to overcome them) of the upcoming IPBES Transformative Change Assessment…(approval plenary in December). Buddy, science is a manifestation of particular social structures/histories.

I might turn this account into a "Did Florida State improve its negotiating position with the ACC?" bot. NO 1-4, with losses to, well, everyone. Congrats on beating Cal a week ago, but getting hammered by SMU yesterday?

Co-sign. Most climate vulnerability is not about the climate…the climate just makes other vulnerabilities and inequalities worse. The gender and adaptation kit has been trying to make this point for a while!

Hey, that’s how science works!

Re: this, I have been working on how to organize adaptation evidence to get us past the (very lazy) “adaptation is too locally-specific to offer general lessons” framing that seems to predominate right now. Framework article is out, applications articles are in prep.

Adaptation rationales and benefits: A foundation for understanding adaptation impact

Efforts to achieve coordinated, effective, and impactful adaptation outcomes are complicated by factors ranging from the local specificity of adaptati…

Thanks! This seems to read “the empirical trend appears to be toward larger storms, but the models disagree on future trends…”

Thought #2 after #climateweek#locallyled#adaptation risk making those most vulnerable to impacts responsible for fixing what are usually systemic causes not of their making. Push co-creating more!

Thought #1 after #climateweek: People are much too confident about their data in terms of intervention impacts & efficacy. There is a lot of data out there, but it is poorly organized (if at all). The data I see (and analysis built on it) is questionable in terms of representativeness and quality.
