Hi Jon-Pierre, thanks for your interest. We tried to be representative: our authors are anthropologists, sociologists, political scientists, microbiologists, epidemiologists, STS, Comms, and public health scholars, and historians. But you are of course correct that no review will ever be complete.

Antimicrobial Resistance and the Right to a Healthy Environment: Crown Jewel or Damp Squib? | Public Humanities | Cambridge Core
Antimicrobial Resistance and the Right to a Healthy Environment: Crown Jewel or Damp Squib? - Volume 2
The human right to a healthy, clean & sustainable environment could be a game changer for tackling #AMR's environmental drivers. But how could this work? Wendy Boucrot, Sheila Varadan & I review how the new right could be applied to #antimicrobial pollution.

Helsinki just went a full year without a single traffic death
The capital city is Finnish’ed with car-related fatalities.
“Helsinki hasn’t registered a single traffic-related fatality in the past year…Citing data that shows the risk of pedestrian fatality is cut in half by reducing a car’s speed from 40 to 30km/hr, city officials imposed the lower limit in most of Helsinki’s residential areas and city center in 2021.”

Hard to believe that the gold standard underlying the remodelling of most post-1980s surveillance systems can simply be switched off. Also highlights the importance of decentralised capacity building for long-term resilience.

Definitely, the most scenic #AMR meeting I have been to! Thanks to CATIE & the British Academy for organising a week of thought-provoking discussions in Costa Rica on Just Transitions for AMR and the many interconnections between antimicrobial pollution and climate change!

When we say "no, everything hasn't been digitized," I need you to understand that we really mean is that virtually nothing has been digitized. This is because the realm of primary sources that historians use is incomprehensibly large.

Organ-tuning books in English churches provide notes on a warming climate
Researchers have realised the records are a ‘goldmine’ to study changes in environmental conditions
Music, materials, weather and climate - a great story about a set of organ record books from the 1960s to now. Are there older ones? When did recording temperature and humidity become a common part of the tuner's practice? www.theguardian.com/environment/... #histSTM #envhist

We'll, this explains a lot. A truly sobering read on the grant mill & the lose-lose resulting from decades of over promising win-wins.

The 🌍 is facing real environmental pressures, but we already know what works: restoring ecosystems, cutting pollution, & investing in clean energy all strengthen resilience.
#UNEA7 is a key moment for countries to build on this progress & step up action for a more resilient planet: bit.ly/3WtFOt3
