One weird thing about energy/climate academia is how many people choose to do lots of unnecessary and harmful stuff (fly lots, eat lots of beef, drive fossil vehicles lots, etc.). I get that we need policy and system change, but also, doesn't this it undermine credibility after a point?

Energy saving innovations are amazing, but what if they arise from an ambition to keep an unsustainable, consumer lifestyle?🤔
If creativity & resources were directed to where NEEDS are REAL
we may ALL yet avoid disaster,

Even if we are able to capture all CO₂ emitted at point sources with CCS and scale atmospheric CO₂ removal (CDR) to billions of tonnes per year (we can't and never will), continuing to burn fossil fuels means that millions of people will continue to die from air pollution each year.
Sorry for shouting but... THE ENTIRE POINT OF CCS IS TO ENABLE MORE FOSSIL FUEL USE. That it captures jack shit doesn't matter. All fossil fuel interests need to do is claim that the emissions their extraction produces will be removed from the atmosphere. At some point. Somehow.

Who is draining Africa?
This figure shows net-appropriation of resources from Africa's CFA zone, illustrating two key facts. 1) Eurozone countries are the biggest appropriators, benefitting from the Francafrique system. 2) Contrary to conventional Western narratives, China's appropriation is tiny.

The basic mechanism underlying the housing affordability crisis is clearly the enclosure of the commons (land privatisation!)
But today, most voters have a vested interest in BAU,
so PUBLIC housing to help undo the evil is of low or no interest,
but that ignorance has a price we must pay

Editorial: Australia’s refugee intake is so small, smaller than Labor’s earlier promises, that any changes will make no difference to the country. All they will do is confirm the government is willing to punish refugees for other people’s anxieties. trib.al/asPlcwC
Labor’s moral flip-flop
In his first comments, Anthony Albanese did not try to hide his motivation. Wherever there are refugee cuts, there is the fear of the populist right.
