The invasion of Ukraine will rightly top the agenda at this week's #NATOSummit. But the new Strategic Concept must still prioritize NATO's sustained role in tackling #climatesecurity challenges. A pleasure to co-author this with @SigneEKoss & @armida_lm. chathamhouse.org/2022/06/nat…

Investing in resilience and stronger climate policies is how we prepare for a warming world, to protect lives, biodiversity, infrastructure and our future. As Gavin Newsom said, "there is no wildfire season, it's fire year".

You can and should condemn the killing of civilians. You can argue there is no justification for such violence. But to call the attack “unprovoked” is not just dishonest but dehumanizing—as if to say the daily violence and oppression Palestinians face is an acceptable norm.

If you write, teach or otherwise work on anything "decolonial", but don't appreciate the significance of this picture, then your work isn't really decolonial

How does #climatechange affect security issues, and what does this in turn mean for #defence forces? To find out, I speak to @Tobias_Ellwood (Chair of the Defence Committee) and @anum__f (@ChathamHouse): podcasts.apple.com/us/podcas…

Extreme weather – including heatwaves and flooding – appears to be the new normal for Pakistan. @DrGarethPrice and I recently explored why and how this is happening for @Cascades_EU, and how resilience against climate impacts can be strengthened: cascades.eu/publication/buil…

After many months of digging, @maybulman and I can reveal not one Afghan has been brought to the UK under the ACRS, with many facing torture and death. Meanwhile, only 5-8 staff are working on the scheme compared to 540 on Ukraine. theguardian.com/world/2022/d…

✨ A pleasure to co-author this long read with @DrGarethPrice. ✨ South Asian countries need to invest in climate resilience and adaptation - but this will require political will, public support, technological advances, regional cooperation and, sadly, a great deal of luck.
