"...food, healthcare, water and sanitation, education, decent work and social security are not commodities for sale to those who can afford them, but basic #HumanRights to which we are all entitled." Now and forevermore. #SDGs

Eating for the planet turns out to be eating for yourself. Less red meat. More plants. Lower emissions — and also lower blood pressure, better gut health, longer life. The climate diet and the longevity diet? Same diet. #climateAction #food @Moveribfan @DrKristieLeong @OneHealthPlanet Your expert opinion please.

@William_Blake Asking the right questions - those that are interesting and important, specifying the problem in a way that can be addressed with available data, that will separate the average from the excellent, both for papers and academics. As they do now.

Academia really doesn't know what's coming. "It is funny, and tragic, how much some of you are still obsessed with writing and publishing 'papers.'" marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolu…

Happy #WorkersDay

This is a shared responsibility. Govts enforce strong labour laws. Unions enable collective bargaining. Civ soc advocates for their rights. Companies invest in safe and fair workplaces. @FSC_IC brings them together to build consensus even when interests diverge

For @FSC_IC workers' rights mean safe working conditions, gender equality, training opportunities, and freedom of association with collective bargaining. They prohibit child labour, forced labour, and discrimination.

130 years of organized labour movement has won many gains for workers’ rights. Yet these rights remain out of reach for the vast majority of workers. With disruptive changes in the world of work, labour rights are important for many additional reasons. 1/n

Yesterday #Köln Municipal Forests celebrated 25 years of @FSC_IC certification, 25 years of meeting and exceeding high standards of responsible forest management. Here the Chief Forest Officer speaks about climate adaptive forest management. #EarthDay

Claudia Goldin won the Nobel Prize in economics - as a treat, she took on volunteer role helping the WNBA players negotiate for the biggest pay increase a union has ever received - a nearly 400% raise. This is badass. wsj.com/economy/wnba-p…

At @FSC_IC these drivers of social justice are part of our Principles & are verified in practice. Together with our democratic decision-making, these principles enable FSC’s standards of responsible forest mgmt to enhance social inclusion, decent work & poverty alleviation. 4/4

In forests, social justice depends on safe and decent work, secure land and resource rights for Indigenous Peoples and local communities, and meaningful participation in decisions that affect them. 3/4

Today, on #WorldSocialJusticeDay, the United Nations calls for renewed commitment to social development and justice in global systems. In the forest sector, that commitment is inseparable from how rights, livelihoods and governance are addressed in practice. 1/4
