HDialogue: How large are inequalities in global carbon emissions – and what to do about it?

Going beyond income and wealth, inequality manifests itself in many dimensions, one of which is in the stark differences in carbon emissions across different countries. Carbon inequality is accelerating the climate crisis and threatening our very existence. A new study “Climate Change & the Global Inequality of Carbon Emissions” released by UNDP and the World Inequality Lab (WIL) provides novel findings on carbon emissions of individuals, based on a newly assembled set of economic inequality and environmental data available on the World Inequality Database. Check out the latest HDialogue post from WIL Co-Director Lucas Chancel to learn about the key findings and what we can do to close the gap and reduce the burden we place on the planet.

This week’s Guide by a dementia expert shows you how to begin optimising and protecting your precious grey and white matter. In Ideas, an explanation of poetry’s unique emotional power; the fascinating etymology of the word ‘risk’; a new approach to goodness that sees morals as molecules that can be combined; and, the surprisingly difficult task of finding a scientific definition of emotions. Perhaps the exploration of emotion is best left to art? Our latest Film  has a go – an enchanting music video moulded in clay, which manages to capture both the persistence of anxiety and the joy of movement and landscape.  – Christian Jarrett, Deputy Editor  #Convites vários SESSÃO CULTURAL, dia 09/11, às 18h,    Pelo aplicativo ZOOM: ID Sessão Cultural: 856 3939 7843 Link de acesso: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/85639397843                                           MARCIA MACEDO  SECRETÁRIA DA ACADEMIA SUL-RIO-GRANDENSE DE MEDICINA                                               Tel.: (51) 3217-0666 / (51) 995025863                                            Site: www.academiademedicinars.com.br Domingo, dia 07 de novembro, às 16h, na Feira do Livro:     Segunda, dia 08 de novembro, às 17:30h, na Feira do Livro:     Terça, dia 09 de novembro, às 16h, na ABC:     Quinta, dia 11 de novembro, às 17:30h, na Feira do Livro:   #From: Quanta Magazine PLANETARY SCIENCE | ALL TOPICS   Researchers Revise Recipe for Building a Rocky Planet By JONATHAN O'CALLAGHAN Over the past decade, researchers have completely rewritten the story of how gas giants such as Jupiter and Saturn form.

(The Washington Post | 4 min read) Reference: BMJ paper  This tiny tardigrade has been preserved in amber for 16 million years. Researchers were studying the fragment for months before spotting the half-millimetre-long creature in a corner. The discovery is “truly a once-in-a-generation event”, says entomologist Phil Barden. It is only the third fossilized tardigrade to be found, and the first from the Cenozoic, the current geological era. The fossil specimen — a genus and species new to science — has been named Paradoryphoribius chronocaribbeus.
