Do we need another concept for protecting nature and climate?
Yes! Why? moving beyond Nature-based Solutions (#NbS) to pursue Integrated Nature Climate Action (INCA) can help us address systemic drivers of the global polycrisis.

@TheConversationClimate These ideas are interesting, particularly insurance through co-ops.
However, what Australians can do to reduce risks worldwide is to stop mining coal.

🤬 Only 17% of articles stating "data are available upon request" actually shared requested data.
Data sharing was no better from articles with promissory Data Sharing Statements.
It's been this way since the 60s.
We’re #hiring! Together we will move climate action towards high integrity and a sustainable net-zero world! Know anyone who might be interested?

Is any other nation doing this?
"All students at India’s universities will have to study subjects such as environmental education and climate change in order to graduate, starting from the about-to-begin 2023 to 2024 academic year, according to guidelines from the University Grants Commission (UGC), the country’s higher education apex body."

This is a great idea -- a book on how to do fact-checking. It used to be that every large newspaper and other media outlets had fact-checkers on staff. That is no longer the case -- it's left up to editors who have varying skill levels in this.
Anyway, could be useful to others too. From the University of #Chicago. Also, a good way to deal with #misinformation.
This book will help you: Recognize what information to fact-check Identify the quality and ranking of source materials Learn to fact-check a variety of media types: newspaper; magazine; social media; public and commercial radio and television, books, films, etc. Navigate relationships with editors, writers, and producers Recognize plagiarism and fabrication Discern conflicting facts, gray areas, and litigious materials Learn record keeping best practices for tracking sources Test your own fact-checking skills An accessible, one-stop guide to the why, what, and how of contemporary editorial fact-checking. Over the past few years, fact-checking has been widely touted as a corrective to the spread of misinformation, disinformation, conspiracy theories, and propaganda through the media. “If journalism is a cornerstone of democracy,” says author Brooke Borel, “then fact-checking is its building inspector.” In The Chicago Guide to Fact-Checking, Borel, an experienced fact-checker, draws on the expertise of more than 200 writers, editors, and fellow checkers representing the New Yorker, Popular Science, This American Life, Vogue, and many other outlets. She covers best practices for editorial fact-checking in a variety of media—from magazine and news articles, both print and online, to books and podcasts—and the perspectives of both in-house and freelance checkers. In this second edition, Borel covers the evolving media landscape, with new guidance on checking audio and video sources, polling data, and sensitive subjects such as trauma and abuse. The sections on working with writers, editors, and producers have been expanded, and new material includes fresh exercises and advice on getting fact-checking gigs. Borel also addresses the challenges of fact-checking in a world where social media, artificial intelligence, and the metaverse may make it increasingly difficult for everyone—including fact-checkers—to identify false information. The answer, she says, is for everyone to approach information with skepticism—to learn to think like a fact-checker. The Chicago Guide to Fact-Checking is the practical—and thoroughly vetted—guide that writers, editors, and publishers continue to consult to maintain their credibility and solidify their readers’ trust.
🌍 Happy #EarthDay !
Go out and celebrate nature.

Been making fun today of the $8 blue check shenanigans, but the serious side is becoming very clear. For show business, sports and media celebrities, journalists, writers, artists, politicians and influencers, social media is instrumental to making their living. And like it or not, Twitter right now is the only game in town. By threatening their livelihoods Elon is extorting these people, and he will be successful unless and until a viable social media alternative exists.
