Honestly I think it starts by having more interviews. What before was a big obstacle for non native speakers, can only be assessed in presence. A healthy scientific discussion is already mandatory, why not extend its thresholds? And yes this means more money into it.

Why post-fire management matters for resilient European landscapes
In Europe, where increasingly severe wildfires are reshaping landscapes, post-fire management remains one of the least developed yet most consequential dimensions of wildfire policy.

After the flames, wildfires pollute drinking water for years
Wildfires can cause contaminants to seep into waterways, polluting the drinking water that communities rely on.

According to this article, “Wildfires historically occurred on the Channel Islands only after a rare lightning strike.” OK, but wildfire is not the only kind of fire that historically occurred on the Channel Islands. Talk to the heirs of the people who burned there for millennia.

Auschwitz Memorial @auschwitzmemorial.bsky.social · 27/01/2026
Auschwitz was at the end of a process. We must remember that it did not start from gas chambers. This hatred gradually developed: from ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.
A bird's-eye view of a former Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp showing a wide dirt pathway flanked by parallel rows of barbed-wire fences. Groups of visitors walk along the path, surrounded by the remnants of brick structures and barracks, now reduced to foundations. Green grass contrasts with the somber history of the site, as the path leads toward a guard tower in the distance.
