Important to reiterate that Putin started the war to reorganize Europe’s entire security architecture—a return to a hybrid of 19th-century and pre-1997 architectures—with Ukraine as a first stepping stone from the Kremlin’s perspective. www.themoscowtimes.com/2026/10/21/p...

New working paper: the Norwegian wealth tax was a huge success. The "exodus" of wealthy people never happened (less than 100 individuals left). Tax revenue increased by 71.5%. No changes in business activity or investment. www.nber.org/papers/w35854

Der größte Teil der Medien hat sich mit seiner aktiven Ignoranz der heranrollenden Klimakatastrophe längst mitschuldig gemacht. "If this graph represented stock market prices, a new Olympic record or a medical test result, it would dominate the headlines." www.lyrebirddreaming.com/post/the-gra...

1/4 Very interesting and timely paper. The authors find that "industrial policies lead to trade surpluses if the government pursues an unbalanced policy mix, such that domestic demand does not rise as much as supply. These surpluses are absorbed by the rest... bw.bse.eu/wp-content/u...

These: Wenn wir nicht schaffen, Journalismus auf neue Art zu finanzieren, ist die freie, demokratische Gesellschaft nicht zu halten. Den größten Unsinn gibt es überall gratis, für kluge Hintergrundartikel muss man überall zahlen. Was wird sich logischerweise schneller verbreiten? So wird das nichts.

"Laut Rachel Leshin, der Erstautorin der Studie, offenbaren die Forschungsergebnisse „eine bemerkenswerte Voreingenommenheit in der Sichtweise der Eltern auf das Geschlecht, was darauf hindeutet, dass eine ‚Person‘ standardmäßig männlich ist“." Es ist nicht egal, wie wir sprechen.

1/8 Bloomberg: "All his decisions will be guided by whether or not they strengthen the competitiveness of German industry, Merz has said." It seems that Merz wants to double down on the very policies that got Germany into trouble. www.bloomberg.com/opinion/arti... via @opinion

Interesting piece by Yanis Varoufakis, who is an opponent of Trump's policies in general but who nonetheless suspects that Trump has a more sophisticated understanding of global trade than most mainstream economists. unherd.com/2025/02/why-...

Warum attackiert Musk Wikipedia? Nicht nur aus Konkurrenz. Eine Grundlage zur radikalen Veränderung demokratischer Systeme ist eine Gesellschaft, die sich nicht mehr auf Fakten einigen kann. Wir befinden uns mitten in diesem Prozess - der strategischen Vernichtung von Wissen (@kleinezeitung.at).

If everyone would just stop fighting, there would be peace on Earth! 🕊 Not realistic? Try to genuinely imagine what it would take to realize net zero in time to keep global warming below 2.0°C. We are crossing 1.5°C as we speak. Let's keep it real!
🌍🌡📈 "Global warming reached an estimated 1.45°C in October 2024. If the 15-year warming trend leading up to then continued, global warming would reach 2°C by August 2039" The trend line reaches above IPCC projections. @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social ERA5 temp data relative to 1850-1900.

1/7 ING's chief economist worries that "the consequences of deglobalisation will show up in the slow erosion of long-term productivity and economic wellbeing. It will leave us all poorer in the long-run." I don't think this kind of muddled thinking is helpful. www.ft.com/content/46ed...

With global level references and Al Gore on his scissors lift point out where we are at:
No one who actually understands what the greenhouse gas forcing is questioned this graph of the GHG forcing of past 130,000 years. It looks unbelievable, but we'd better believe it. As this is the scale of humanity's impact on the global climate. We haven't seen anything yet
