Day 1 complete!

Paul Behrens gave a fantastic keynote on understanding our interconnected crises from a complex systems perspective.

After lunch in the Amsterdam sun UvA Institute for Advanced Study, our 40 amazing participants brainstormed projects to work on.

We're excited about what lies ahead!

We have written to GMC to raise our serious concerns about the recent suspension of Dr Sarah Benn.

There must be an urgent review of the basis on which Dr Benn found herself in front of a medical tribunal.

I am deeply grateful to Ro Khanna for the true honor of his reading and endorsing my book, *The Language of Climate Politics*

Rep. Khanna is one of the great climate champions in Congress, so his praise means the world.

Not a single mention of climate change.

If your “alternative” to the mainstream doesn’t include climate and nature crises as increasingly important in shaping the economy we actually live in, it’s not a real alternative.

⚡️ New research! ⚡️

What was the impact of the Insulate Britain campaign?

We conducted a full impact analysis of Insulate Britain's series of actions to assess their impact on government policy and debate on home insulation in the UK.
