Delighted to have presented at the RGS-IBG conference 2024 as part of Mark Usher and Maan Barua's session on "Mapping Urban Metabolism". I presented some theoretical frameworks I've been working this past year, before I start collecting data for my PhD in early 2025.

If you’re rightly disgusted by the constant dumping of raw sewage into our rivers, the emissions from the uncontrolled boom in intensive factory farms are going to be a whole lot worse

Arranca un largo viaje en tren en el que empezar a asimilar todo lo aprendido y sentido esta semana en el @ESEE_Degrowth. Muy contento por haber podido compartir mi incipiente trabajo de investigación sobre la industria fósil y el puerto de Bilbao con compañeras tan alentadoras.

Happy sewage dumping day! 💩

The water cos say they dumped into rivers & seas 301,091 times last year. For 1.8 million hours. That's just the tip of the poopberg.

See the shit parade below but bear in mind that some serve more people, and some have more monitors = more data

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the murder of Stephen Lawrence. Our thoughts are with his family.

On this #StephenLawrenceDay, we pledge to keep challenging the racism that pervades our criminal justice system. Justice must be anti-racist or it is nothing.

The revelation that depression is not caused by a chemical imbalance has left people understandably confused. There’s scientific evidence for at least 9 causes - which of them are playing out in your life?
