Man kann die Menschen nicht gleichzeitig beunruhigen und beruhigen. Immer wieder zu sagen "die Lage ist ernst", aber "das wird für keinen etwas bedeuten und keiner wird betroffen sein", das kann nicht funktionieren. Wenn die Lage ernst ist, muss man auch ernst darüber sprechen.

Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.

One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.

When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?
It's over.

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

“The lesson is clear. Together, European financing and Ukrainian ingenuity can build an effective deterrent against external threats, even as the US pulls back.”
“Ukraine’s experience since February 2022 has upended long-held assumptions about the economics of war — from the belief that size and industrial capacity are a guarantee of victory to misunderstandings about mobilisation, logistics and adaptability.”

Some people in Germany want to ban the Alternative for Germany, a far-right party, to prevent a repeat of Nazism.

“We cannot be unserious about preventing this kind of thing,” Ralf Stegner, a social democrat, said.
Can Germany stop extremism by banning a far-right party? Some want to try.
Banning Alternative for Germany, a far-right party, might seem undemocratic but Germany’s constitution allows such prohibitions to prevent a repeat of Nazism.
