We need to do more than question economic growth - inspired by Indigenous ways of knowing, doing and being, we need a new narrative of connection to help start a wisdom revolution: https://t.co/C1fHTJhkbU

Can capitalism actually solve the world’s biggest problems? It hasn’t been—and economists are questioning one of its basic precepts. https://t.co/A8pdnGbuAG

Five years in the making, we have just published an integrative analysis in PSPR that explains the many ways in which identification with one's neighbourhood has a powerful impact on mental health.

The article is open access.

If someone told you HALF of our global economies would be destroyed due to climate change, would you believe them?

Well, the research doesn’t lie. We're on a collision course, and this is a data-driven reality check. 1/7

we have the technology!

australia could achieve ~99% renewable electricity with just 5 hours of storage.

@DavidOsmond8’s simulation, using real, scaled-up data, completes its second year.

@anabjain The Social Identity Model of Organisational Changelooks very promising in this regard - at its core it helps people/orgs understand ‘who they are today’, ‘who they want to become’, and then ‘how to get there’ (collectively). Happy to discuss further. See: https://t.co/fYZzPwCPiT

@alexanderhaslam Yet another example of a supposed “leader” who doesn’t understand leadership 🤷🏻‍♂️

[Alex Haslam @alexanderhaslam]

A powerful piece here on the structural determinants of mental health and the limitations of treatments that focus only on individual psychology. Something we should encourage all first-year psychology students to reflect on. https://t.co/v6WAwhMEJQ

[Crighton Nichols @CrightonN]

@theasnow Happy to chat more about it if you’re interested 👍

[Crighton Nichols @CrightonN]

@theasnow They have applied it in a CM context as social identity is how any group works out how they are (currently), who they want to be (in the future), and how to get there. Without this, your CM efforts are likely to fail, yet most CM programs don’t pay enough attention to it.

[ARCHIVED NASA Exoplanets @NASAExoplanets]

The misconception that there is no sound in space originates because most space is a ~vacuum, providing no way for sound waves to travel. A galaxy cluster has so much gas that we've picked up actual sound. Here it's amplified, and mixed with other data, to hear a black hole!

[Crighton Nichols @CrightonN]

@alexanderhaslam That’s insulting to geese

[Crighton Nichols @CrightonN]

@alexanderhaslam That’s a little short-sighted of them…

What do I like about a good tongue twister?

I played the @FinancialTimes Climate Game to see if I could cut emissions to zero by 2050. I failed to avoid the worst effects of climate change!

Can you make the tough decisions needed to save our planet? 🌎 https://t.co/BIXvOQcIuR
