Hoe toekomstbestendig is het #waterbeleid in de #verkiezingsprogramma’s van 15 partijen? Dat is door Water Natuurlijk in het WaterRad geanalyseerd. Slechts 5 partijen doen het goed, met D66 voorop. Een lage score is er voor NSC. FvD en PVV staan onderaan.

For the 2nd Biannual EnviroAnt Workshop, we invite Anthropologists, Activists and Artists to tell the stories of environmental destruction, while attending to hopes, aspirations, and mythologies that materialise in landscapes. https://t.co/0G1ltf77Cl #environment #anthropology

The "Dying at the Margins" workshop at @KTHEnvHumsLab, organised by @NLemosDekker and @jdonpeterson, where the idea for this volume was born was absolutely fascinating. So I'd definitely recommend all to consider submitting a chapter to the book!

[Arvid van Dam @ArvidvanDam]

Very much looking forward to this!

@GLO_ERC @visualplague @BOAR_ERC Already looking forward to it!

[Arvid van Dam @ArvidvanDam]

@clarerishbeth @metaleptic Good suggestions in my opinion. Personally, I prefer to be more specific ("cows", tomatoes" "landscape") rather than generic ("nonhuman", "multispecies") in ethnographic writing.

Interesting article https://t.co/6BPJdX400T on the ecological impact of wildlife fencing--often cherished by farmers, a pain to conservationists.
How to move beyond fences in rethinking the livestock/wildlife interface? A main question in my new postdoc @CRC228 #envhum #envanth

[Global Lives of the Orangutan @GLO_ERC]

We're all really looking forward to this conversation with @visualplague & @BOAR_ERC - and yes, there may be an #orangutan or three in there!

[Arvid van Dam @ArvidvanDam]

This looks fascinating!

Unsustainable farming and forestry, urban sprawl and pollution are the top pressures to blame for a drastic decline in Europe’s biodiversity, threatening the survival of animal species and habitats, according to European Environment Agency’s (EEA). https://t.co/iGoPYoYqJb

Thanks, @DrGiuseppeFeola and @UUCopernicus for inviting me today to present my work and exchange ideas about unmaking, degrowth, and sustainability.

'Postindustrial imaginaries' seminar kicks off. Getting ready for a day of fascinating discussions! @uniofbrighton @DawneyLeila

[Arvid van Dam @ArvidvanDam]

@WilliamMCavert Relph, that is.

[Arvid van Dam @ArvidvanDam]

@WilliamMCavert Funny, I was just reading Relp's Placelessness: "Economics is not just a matter of production, distribution, and consumption, but a complete way of life that even takes on the character of a religion ... attended to uncomprehendingly but faithfully by a multitude of devotees."
