I welcome Denmark’s announcement that it will allocate 60% of climate financial aid to climate adaptation measures in its national budget proposal. This is a powerful example of #ClimateAction leadership for other donor countries & multilateral development banks to follow.

@WanderingPoint I don't think anyone should look for gifs based on anything I say...😳 Oh - and this worked. Got me threaded on the first stick today! (which is really surprising and lucky since we currently can't drink the local water so I've been hydrating for two days on oat milk)

@mavrick_brett There is a complexity that I worry is often reduced, and I think it is only going to get more tangled. *BUT*, there were people doing good work who were hurt because they thought this was directed at them and their work, and for that, I am truly sorry.

@mavrick_brett Thank you, but my timing was bad, because I made my comments against the backdrop of an open letter (well researched, by people who did their homework) against bad policing practices. So people thought I was making a case FOR bad cop shit (which I wasn't).

An incredibly important thread on the scope creep of contact tracing in Singapore -- can we prevent this in other jurisdictions? Rolling back surveillance once it's in place is a monumental task.

🧵on #Covid19 tech + surveillance in 🇸🇬 1/ Unlike this time last year, when Singapore's epidemic curve shot up and we were seeing new cases in the 100s/1000s (mostly within migrant worker dorms), the number of cases have come right down now, and tend to be mostly imported cases.

@meresar_math I had a similar situation moving here - I needed the results back before departure, but needed the test time to be no more than 72hr before arrival on a 24hr trip. I had to drive quite a ways away to buy a very expensive test at a private lab to meet the timeline.

I am so sick of the ignorance of (math) academics who have no idea that the security sector includes food security, water security, assistance for refugees and IDPs, disaster relief, actually providing the on-the-ground support for the world's most vulnerable people. (1/7)
