Migration (driven by conflict, climate change or ...) can result in increased material well-being but decreased subjective well-being because -you miss home. Comment by Ricardo Safra de Campos, Exeter, in response to Migrants on the Margins well-being study in Dhaka slum #AF2018

💦 Piph Lube 💦 piph.it/af2018

My own lube, with unique ingredients chosen for their psychoactive properties: caffeine, cannabis, catnip, "queer magic."

Also, it was full of glitter, but still totally body-safe! Trust me!

There was even a product page to buy it, and it fooled Nina Hartley. 🏆

As a US American daily more ashamed of my government I am happy to have run into 3 people here from the fed working on climate adaptation (USDA, USAID) #AF2018

Discussing the need to subordinate ego drivers in co-production of science/info/policy, the dangers of "stealth advocacy," the important role of faith communities in info transfer -in "The intersection of culture, ethics & information in practical adaptation" #AF2018

A word of caution abt citing Native wisdom- a speaker at #AF2018 read the "we are the ones we are waiting for" story from "Hopi elders"-in fact written by Meg Wheatley based on her own alleged Native source. Speaker should've acknowledged vague provenance.

People in the mountains have always migrated. There and elsewhere migration *prevention* policy is unhelpful. Also, don't let gov't blame climate change for migration: make gov't improve quality of life equitably in source communities. (Amina Maharjan & Katharine Mach) #AF2018

Does climate matter for conflict? It's complicated. Stanford's @katharine_mach presents examination of experts on vulnerability (Adger et al.) to find areas of agreement on how climate contributes to conflict. Low socioeconomic development is a far bigger factor. #AF2018

.@adaptfutures Is there a place to read errata or updates about the programme? I couldn't find S324 "Climate resilient development pathways" in either the Special or General programmes, & I'm expecting it isn't the only session that fell through the cracks. #af2018

Where/when are the presentations about ethics in climate change planning at Adaptation Futures '18? Glancing through programme I didn't see anything... #af2018 @AdaptFutures

Holy moly Ovais Sarmad (UNFCCC) mentions in opening plenary the plan (?!) to haul an iceberg frm Antarctica to Cape Town for H2O. Andrew Mack (Simon Fraser U) sounded like a crackpot talking about hauling an iceberg to India at 3 Degrees Conf. in 2009. Are we there now? #AF2018

We want to be careful about getting siloed lest we find ourselves on top of our silos trapped by rising floodwaters - Noel Oettle (Adaptation Network South Africa) in opening plenary #AF2018

An apparent market winner in the Cape Town drought: hand sanitizer. A bottle of the gel sits next to each bathroom sink at the airport & my hotel. #AF2018 #capetown #drought

And let’s make sure that when @CoughlanClimate asks us in 2020 what is different to #AF2018 that ‘nothing’ is not a prominent answer

Something I observed at #AF2018-a lot of participants now include their @Twitter handle with their email address and name on the opening slides of their presentations!

M&E for accountability (eg of funds) and M&E for learning-does the intention create incentives that then affect process and outcome? #AF2018 #dialogues4solutions
