Grote kans dat met een verplichte generatietoets, gericht op het onderzoeken van échte lange termijn gevolgen, dit nooit zou mogen. Echt bestuurlijk leiderschap kijkt verder dan vijf à tien jaar vooruit.
Alle ogen van het land zijn donderdag gericht op Zeewolde.
Dan moet duidelijk worden of dat de thuisbasis wordt van het grootste datacenter van Europa. Deskundigen en politici vinden dat dit dossier de lokale politiek ontstijgt en het Rijk zou moeten ingrijpen. #Nieuwsuur

What do you get when @JanTerlouw, @romankrznaric, @SvVeldhoven, @Rianneletschert and more come to Slot Loevestein?
An amazing conference where all agree:
Future generations have rights, we need to be good ancestors and take their needs into consideration in our society today!
For the #EU Rights of nature seems a new perspective on how to secure rights of future generations.Policy focus is still mainly humanity based. Lets make sure #EU understands #HumanRights and #NaturerRights go hand in hand. @OmbudsToekomst #Ecocide @romankrznaric @JanvandeVenis

Are we being good ancestors? What obligations do we have to them?
Moral motives for intergenerational justice @RomanKrznaric #IntergenerationalJustice #LettheFutureGenerationsescape #HumanRights #GoodAnchestor
Are we being good #ancestors? The central question of @romankrznaric . Intergenerational justice is an important starting point. #thegoodancestor . We are colonising the #future and taking from people yet to be born. @OmbudsToekomst

Statement on Glasgow @COP26 Draft Text.
I call on @AlokSharma_RDG @BorisJohnson and governments at #COP26 to ensure the final Glasgow Deal includes the needs and interests of future generations.
This language of ‘future generations’ must be clearly referenced within the text. – at Glasgow, Scotland

On behalf of future generations, we call on governments @COP26 to ensure the final COP Glasgow Deal includes the needs of future generations.

Big thanks to @KYWeise & @kateconger for their reporting.
Are you a current Amazon worker? @AMZNforClimate continues to do powerful organizing. Get in touch!
NLRB confirmed what we’ve known since last year: @Amazon illegally fired our brave coworkers @emahlee and @marencosta for speaking out about major gaps in Amazon’s climate and worker record.

Vandaag verscheen de 5e Nationale SDG Rapportage: bit.ly/3v2zHMP "Nederland boekt voortgang op het gebied SDG 10, ongelijkheid" valt te lezen.
Maar de conclusie van
@SDGSpotlightNL
was: verminderen van ongelijkheid is geen prioriteit voor Nederland en ambitie ontbreekt
