This week the world has experienced the three hottest days on record.

Earth is becoming hotter and more dangerous for everyone, everywhere.

We must rise to the challenge of rising temperatures.

Here’s my call to #ClimateAction: https://t.co/G4cwroe32y

A habitable planet is more important than the profits of a few fossil fuel companies.

Pass it on.

Vuodesta 2015 alkaen kansainvälisestikin poikkeuksellinen kehitys on huolestuttanut.
Macro-mistakes, esitimme @SofiePelsmakers & al kanssa. Toivottavasti tilannetta tarkastellaan erilaisten uudistusten yhteydessä.

@MarkSiddallRIBA @lzmddngs @RichardT135 @AECBnet yes it is close to the underfloor airbricks, but can negate the effect of any flor insulation between joists, exactly where heatloss and discomfort is highest...

@APriimagi @TampereUni I just saw the obituary... so so sad and shocking ... I only worked with him briefly on the Tech recruitment panel for the Institute of Advanced Studies last year. My heart goes out to all the people he touched, of which there are many...

I had no idea about these numbers (ca 60% of research funds in Finland in architecture end up @TampereUni ) BUT I am not surprised to be part of Finland's MOST research active architecture school 😍 and contributing to a more sustainable tomorrow!

@ALonnq Hyvin mahdollista. Ulkoisen rahoituksen numerot lienevät yksiselitteisempiä, tässä ne (sama lähde).

Arkkitehtuuritutkimuksen ulkoinen rahoitus Suomessa 2022 yhteensä 3,938 m€, josta
- TAU 2,271 m€
- Oulu 1,047 m€
- Aalto 0,577 m€

TAU-osuus tässä 57,7 %.

@Postigroup I would say half my post packages end up OUTSIDE Hervanta, even if I pre-select for it to be in Hervanta R-kioski - it is random, even if many lockers available. The time it takes me to get to Kaukjärvi on public transport & back is the same as getting to Helsinki! This is crazy!

[Sofie Pelsmakers @SofiePelsmakers]

Hi @Postigroup are you not ashamed how you are isolating communities in Hervanta from a local postoffice? And NO a postoffice that is 2 bus rides and 45 mins away AND BACK is not 'local'.
