'With familiarity comes bias and a lack of critical thought. For much of the population, the purpose of education is self-evident, even though it cannot be clearly articulated.' Justin W. Cook How would you define the purpose of education? #education

Alright Tom Nichols I hope you have the answers. Off to a good start: “I know that we can do better in our thinking about nuclear weapons than we have since 1945” #Horizon2045

War has a ruthless but hidden logic. Moves and countermoves become hard to predict after the first few. No one who starts a war knows where it leads or how it ends. Leaders may say what they’ll do or never do, lines they won’t cross. Even if they’re not lying, they don’t know.

• Demographers estimate that 117 billion humans have been born. • Almost 8 billion are alive now. To bring these large numbers into perspective I made this visualization. A giant hourglass. But instead of measuring the passage of time, it measures the passage of people. /2

Interesting to see how the NYT Graphics has changed their map symbology as the Russian war in #Ukraine️ unfolds. On Feb 26, large red arrows and an almost opaque red color shows Russian advances in Ukraine. Suggesting fast, large and controlled overtaking. 1/5

The surface of Lake Mead, the country's largest reservoir, is now at 1,045 feet above sea level. Below about 895 feet, water would no longer pass through Hoover Dam. "We are 150 feet from 25 million Americans losing access to the Colorado River." latimes.com/environment/st…

‘Wide-ranging and fascinating, he is, perhaps, the architect who could have the greatest impact on how we understand our systems of exchange, exposing the real costs of things. With barely a building in sight’ — ⁦Indy Johar⁩ / ⁦Financial Times⁩ ft.com/content/b16042…

The honours aren’t my jam for all the reasons you know, but Indy Johar is, one of the smartest, kindest, most brilliant visionaries of our time. In my opinion, he should be stewarding large resource to deep systemic impact, he’s the kind of thinker you want with you right now ❤️

There is no viable method for biodiversity renewal, without decarbonisation of our economy, without building fair markets, economies & societies, without degrowth of our material economy and investment in human development - these are intersectional planetary challenges..

Update (6/12/2023): Continued extreme and widespread fire activity propel the #CanadianWildfires season total Fire-Radiative Power (FRP) into uncharted terrain (for 2000-2023 satellite record). So much fire, so much smoke, and so much fire season yet to come. #pyrocene
