An E.U. Plan to Slash Micropollutants in Wastewater Is Under Attack
Earlier this year, a European Union directive mandated advanced treatment of micropollutants in wastewater, with the cost to be borne by polluters. But the pharmaceutical and cosmetics industries, which are responsible for most of those contaminants, are now pushing back.

Climate change isn't gender-neutral. The 2023/2024 El Niño drought in Southern Africa didn't just destroy crops—it fueled gender-based violence and put women environmental defenders at risk.
COP30's new Belém Gender Action Plan tackles this head-on with gender-responsive budgeting and support for climate action that protects women.

The (lazy) Git UI You Didn't Know You Need
When my son was born last April, I had ambitious learning plans for the upcoming 5w paternity leave. As you can imagine, with two kids, life quickly verified this plan 🙃. I did eventually start some projects. One of the goals (sounding rebellious in the current AI hype cycle) was to learn and use neovim for coding. As a Goland aficionado, I (and my wrist) have always been tempted by no-mouse, OSS, gopls based, highly configurable dev setups.
