We know of a man who was caught publishing dozens of AI-generated articles in academic journals. The journal that caught him pursued a ban not only from that journal but also from all journals by that publisher. This is a major crisis and it seems the consequences will be severe.

A worker died at an Amazon warehouse in Oregon last week. For more than an hour, workers were instructed to continue working as the man lay dead. One worker wanted to help, but a manager told them to “Just turn around and not look. Let’s get back to work," according to @thewesternedge.bsky.social.

New in Area: 'What difference does language make? Comparing systematic evidence reviews of Vietnamese and English language literatures on climate change and the health of outdoor workers' by Anh Ngoc Vu et al. doi.org/10.1111/area... #geosky
Screenshot of a paper abstract in Area by Anh Ngoc Vu, Jonathan Rigg, Felicity Kersting, Ekaterina Tarnovskaya & Loc Duc Nguyen (2025) entitled: 'What Difference Does Language Make? Comparing Systematic Evidence Reviews of Vietnamese and English Language Literatures on Climate Change and the Health of Outdoor Workers' with a black banner at the top.

The dominance of English-language scholarship in global research has led to a significant knowledge divide, often marginalising research from non-English-speaking regions, particularly in the Global South. This paper presents a comparative analysis of two systematic literature reviews (SLRs) on the health impacts of climate change on outdoor workers in urban Asia, focusing on English- and Vietnamese-language literature. By comparing these two bodies of scholarship, the study uncovers key thematic convergences and divergences, reflecting broader disparities in knowledge production, research norms and priorities. The English-language literature emphasises macro-level analyses, theoretical frameworks, and long-term policy interventions, while the Vietnamese-language literature offers more localised, context-specific insights, highlighting immediate coping strategies and health risks faced by outdoor workers. We argue that the systematic exclusion of non-English sources risks reinforcing existing epistemic hierarchies, narrowing debate on global health and climate change research. By integrating Southern-language perspectives, research can better and more equitably address the diverse vulnerabilities of outdoor workers and develop more effective and locally attuned interventions. The study emphasises the need to cast our linguistic net more widely to enrich global understanding and help achieve epistemic justice.
