Our paper is out!
Current #adaptation projects do not automatically enhance #gender equality | need to be intentionally brought in at planning & implementation stages.

Embedding gender considerations and facilitating #women’s participation in project design and implementation along with #inclusive #policies, training, information access, planning, and monitoring is needed
Additional course correction for #SDG5 is needed.
Our #SDG5plus (SDG5+) approach takes into consideration #intersectionality and gender aspects beyond #women alone, & can help #adaptation actions move towards meeting #genderequality and other #climatejustice goals.

🚨BREAKING🚨

CCSD’s latest teacher separation report is out.

It's bad and we are in uncharted territory.

Read the whole thread to find out who knew what when.

This is what the cumulative teacher/licensed staff separations look like in a typical year for CCSD.

They slowly accumulate August through March and then accelerate April through July when staff start to say they’re not coming back next year.

Last year CCSD saw the lowest teacher separations through February of any school year in the last decade.

After the vaccine came out separations accelerated, and separations ended the year above average.

What does it look like this year…

You might hear a geologist say: "We can't predict earthquakes."

Well, WHY NOT???

1/n

🧵⬇️⬇️⬇️

#earthquake #earthquakeprediction
First, let's define "prediction". A useful #earthquakeprediction will tell you where, when, and how big a significant #earthquake will be, with a reasonably high success rate.

That's different from #forecasting, #earlywarning, and #aftershocks. 2/n

To date NO ONE has developed an effective way to predict significant earthquakes.

Issue #1: Faults are fractal.

"But we know where the tectonic plates are!"

Yes, mostly, but plate boundaries are complicated - see the maps below comparing plates vs. faults. 3/n

Ein #Thread aus und zu #SĂĽdafrika: neben der Tatsache, dass die globale Verteilung von Impfstoffen ein absolutes Armutszeugnis fĂĽr die Weltgemeinschaft ist, hilft SĂĽdafrika uns allen, weil es #Covid ernst nimmt, eine absolut Weltklasse Virusforschung hat, (1)
#Virusvarianten sequenzieren kann und dies auch tut. Wir erleben hier #earlywarning vom Besten. Wir hätten #Delta nicht in dem Maße erlebt, wenn die UK ebenso sequenziert und gewarnt hätte. Die Reisebeschränkungen werden das krisengeschüttelte Land hart treffen (2).
Die Tourismussaison (November-Februar) sollte endlich wieder Geld ins Land bringen, das fällt aus. #Südafrika braucht viel Unterstützung in den nächsten Wochen und es sollte uns das wert sein, weil hier eine Regierung versucht, die Welt vor einer neuen Variante zu schützen. (3)

1/ We already know that nature is relentless. But it is also true that #technology can help to alleviate the most serious consequences of its onslaught
2/ That's why we don't quite agree when this @dwnews article argues that early warning systems are not valid for some phenomena such as #flashfloods dw.com/en/opinion-ger…
3/ Satellite observations such as those of @CopernicusEMS provide invaluable information, but at Arantec we believe that #earlywarningsystems gain in efficiency when the most problematic rivers are also monitored in real time
