One of my coauthors was in town all of last week, so the little time we didn’t spend working on our paper was spent tending to the students in the two classes I was teaching this semester. This explains why I haven’t blogged in almost a week.
Still, I have managed to bookmark everything that has happened to catch my eye last week, and so this week’s blogging will be a mixture of new and (one-week-) old items.
The first of these items was a post by Tufts University’s Parke Wilde discussing a report by Tim Wise, from the Global Development and Environment (GDAE) Institute.
