After stabilizing around 2000-2005, atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gas methane started to rise again, accelerating until a few years ago.
At least the increase seems to be slowing down since 2021.

Analysis of 1.76M Community Notes received by X from January 2021 to March 2025: 90% of submitted notes are never published, with many notes "stuck in limbo" (DDIA)

A Deep Dive into X’s Community Notes: An Analysis of English and Spanish Contributions Between 2021 and 2025
The Digital Democracy Institute of the Americas (DDIA) examined how X’s Community Notes system functions across English and Spanish, drawing from over 1.76 million notes submitted globally between 2021 and 2025. The report explores submission and publication dynamics, contributor behavior, and systemic challenges like transparency gaps and rating backlogs. As community-driven content moderation becomes a global model, this report sheds light on its potential, and limitations, for building a h…

Schramm-Loewner evolution contains a topological Sierpi\'nski carpet when $\kappa$ is close to 8

Schramm-Loewner evolution contains a topological Sierpiński carpet when $κ$ is close to 8
We consider the Schramm-Loewner evolution (SLE$_κ$) for $κ\in (4,8)$, which is the regime where the curve is self-intersecting but not space-filling. We show that there exists $δ_0>0$ such that for $κ\in (8 - δ_0,8)$, the range of an SLE$_κ$ curve almost surely contains a topological Sierpiński carpet. Combined with a result of Ntalampekos (2021), this implies that in this parameter range, SLE$_κ$ is almost surely conformally non-removable, and the conformal welding problem for SLE$_κ$…

Crossness Pumping Station: seduced by symmetry — Anthony Baines Photography
Last week, I was lucky enough to visit the Crossness Pumping Station in South-East London . It is variously known as the "Cathedral in the Marshes" or, more bluntly, the "Cathedral of Sewage". It is a former Victorian sewage pumping station, opened in 1865; it continued to ope

On Extrapolation of Treatment Effects in Multiple-Cutoff Regression Discontinuity Designs
Regression discontinuity (RD) designs typically identify the treatment effect at a single cutoff point, which may not always be the primary interest. When and how, then, can we learn about treatment effects away from the cutoff? This paper addresses this question within a multiple-cutoff RD framework. We begin by examining the plausibility of the constant bias assumption proposed by Cattaneo, Keele, Titiunik, and Vazquez-Bare (2021) through the lens of rational decision-making behavior. We argu…

Tracking the affordability of least-cost healthy diets helps guide intervention for food security and improved nutrition

Tracking the affordability of least-cost healthy diets helps guide intervention for food security and improved nutrition
This Policy Comment describes how the Food Policy article entitled 'Cost and affordability of nutritious diets at retail prices: Evidence from 177 countries' (first published October 2020) and 'Retail consumer price data reveal gaps and opportunities to monitor food systems for nutrition' (first published September 2021) advanced the use of least-cost benchmark diets to monitor and improve food security. Those papers contributed to the worldwide use of least-cost diets as a new diagnostic indic…
