Survivors of the deadly late-2025 Sumatra floods are suing the Indonesian government.
The lawsuit argues that decades of deforestation and weak enforcement turned a natural event into a catastrophic ecological disaster, and demands environmental audits and forest restoration. mongabay.cc/qy5EJz
A company that makes a no-tech, repairable tractor is having trouble keeping up with demand from farmers sick of John Deere's repair monopoly and simply want a tractor that turns on and works:

Another policy brief is ready - on the mismatches between indicators used in policy versus practice - based on a recently submitted paper. @cleliasirami.bsky.social developed the policy brief and will present it in our event next week. Join us to hear why this is critical for a Result-based CAP!
First release: ''EU Omnibus proposal increases pesticide risks'' | Science www.science.org/doi/10.1126/...
Led by Dimitry Wintermantel: we demonstrate that it will amplify rather than resolve shortcomings of current environmental risk assessment, with major risks to human health and the environment.
We're recruiting!
MSc thesis with Cristina de la vega-Leinert as part of @laferia-project.eu, to examine how farmers in & around Leipzig perceive, evaluate & implement the restoration of landscape features, and how municipal systems can help.

When a bunch of idiots burn public goods for the sake of a moment of their personal joy, we call it vandalism.
How do we call it when muti-billionaires maximise their short term profits on the expense of public goods that serve millions or billions of people?
You know nothing about butterflies but wanna learn? 'Global Butterfly Week' might be a place to start.
