New paper alert on @NatureComms . We tackle the challenges of phasing-out #fossilfuel #finance in the #banking sector and we explore how syndicated #bank lending networks shape #policy responses. Have a look at 👇 amazing #Thread summarising the main insights of this work:

Typical Silicon Valley (pseudo-) logic: let's just pretend this tech is magic, and that its costs don't matter. Yes, there are many meaningful climate-positive applications of AI, but we urgently need to address the environmental impacts of (superfluous) generative AI.

"Between 2010 and 2021, the banking sector underwrote $7 trillion (yes, with a T) of fossil fuel loans and bonds to fossil fuel companies."

Great team work w/ Jamie Rickman, @MaxFalken , @MichaelGrubb9 , Sumit Kothari and @nadameli (@UCL_ISR and @KTHuniversity ). May be of interest to @fossiltreaty , @EAERE_envecon , @CmccClimate , @CarbonBrief @sole24ore @vdangerio

Another remarkable paper today. The study shows that gender bias is stronger in images compared with text. It is interesting considering the use of visual social media platforms, the attitudes of younger generation towards reading habits and the potential risk of enduring biases.

Remarkable paper as it explores a crucial question: how to guide a fair transition away from #fossilfuels in low and middle income countries? Congrats!

I have been over the moon all day as I have been awarded a #MSCA Marie Curie fellowship 🇪🇺. My project #LIBRA will explore sustainability #tradeoffs of #AI investments to advance the #twin #transition 👩‍💻🌀 Thx to @ricardovinuesa 🇸🇪 and @LeippoldMarkus 🇨🇭 for the support ☀️

"Underfinanced. Underprepared" the title of the @UNEP #climate #adaptation gap report says it all. The estimated #adaptation #finance gap is USD 194-366 billion per year and progresses in adaptation planning are plateauing rather tha accelerating.

Sudan’s disastrous war — and the science it is imperilling

📢 We're hosting the ClimateNLP workshop at ACL 2024! 📢 @aclmeeting Working at the intersection of NLP and Climate Change? Then, this workshop might be for you @Climate_NLP Jointly organized with @LeippoldMarkus @NJingwei @_im_singh and others, more info soon

The @UN has stocks available of food, water, medical supplies & fuel in Egypt, Jordan, the West Bank & Israel. They can be dispatched within hours. To ensure delivery, our staff need to be able to bring these supplies into and throughout Gaza safely, and without impediment.

Civilians in Gaza desperately need core services and supplies. We need rapid, unimpeded humanitarian access. We need food, water, medicine and fuel now. We need it at scale and we need it to be sustained.
