Thanks for the shout-out, @AnthroEmory! I learned a lot through collaborating with folks at @NREL. Glad to see a conversation that started as a workshop come to fruition.

Here's to promoting #engagement & #equity as integral parts of building better climate futures for all!

In case you missed my new article on Arctic Indigenous peoples and co-producing conservation initiatives and projects https://t.co/D2seGWiimB open access! Thanks to everyone who made those 6 years of research a reality!

One guy’s business plan for a $44 billion over-leveraged purchase is apparently to run around and individually ask people for $8.

Remember that next time you question yourself or your qualifications.

The long and the short of it is: more (extractive) colonialism and reganomics--whether in Kalaallit Nunnat or somewhere else is--is not gonna solve climate change!

It's what got us here in the first place.

[Scott Schnur @schnur_thing]

If something could drag me out of my Twitter hibernation, it's this. So many things!! An anthropologist's take:

1) If you're going to write a story about going to Kalaallit Nunnat (Greenland) to realize climate change is real (?!?!), maybe bother talking to people from there??

[New York Times Opinion @nytopinion]

For years, Bret Stephens considered himself “an agnostic on the causes of climate change.” A trip to Greenland changed his mind. https://t.co/3NqPg1dvo9

[Scott Schnur @schnur_thing]

exactly the kinds of things people in the Greenland generally want! There are reasons the big ALCOA project there collapsed years ago--people wanted wages on par with the policies and norms of their country and values, not the de-regulated stuff the company was pushing for.

[Scott Schnur @schnur_thing]

And for some context, this feels like an even bigger accomplishment because in the last 3 months my wife @caracurtis_ and I had a baby (6 week preemie + NICU stay), she defended, i got a #postdoc in the Emory ES dept., AND we moved!

About to go sleep for a couple weeks...

[Scott Schnur @schnur_thing]

Defended! 🥳🥳😭
