  1. [Space Environment] On Tuesday, the #academies of sciences from the G7 countries met in Paris to give voice to #science. On this occasion, three declarations were signed by the G7 academies and presented to the President of the Republic, Emmanuel Macron. One of them is entitled ‘Large #Satellite #Constellations: Perspectives and Challenges’ : academie-sciences.fr/sites/def

  2. How can you tell science on this planet is fucked? When the *Vatikan* is the only place where science is defended:

    "A more vocal “statement of concern” was issued last week by the Pontifical Academy of Sciences in Vatican City"

    Silence from, e.g.:
    InterAcademy Partnership
    World Academy of Sciences
    International Science Council

    Shame on these organizations and all others who fail to defend science!

  8. European science academies change from X to Mastodon

    A major research policy organization in Europe that has recently left X/Twitter and is now active on Mastodon is ALLEA, the European Federation of #Academies of #Sciences and #Humanities.
    allea.org/allea-ceases-activit

    ALLEA justified this move as follows:
    "Our commitment to academic freedom and science as a global public good is at the heart of our activities, and X's current policy is not in line with our #mission."

  9. @junesim63 i don't know enough about the subject, and this article was disappointing.

    Whilst trying to compare council maintained schools and academies, it didn't explain the distinctions of how the are run and why they may perform better or worse (I.e. Even if academies are not a solution, there must have been a rationale for the change).

    I'm none the wiser other than to know they are controversial 🤷‍♂️ #school #academies #council #uk #government #ukpolitics #education

  10. Research on #academies & council maintained #schools suggests that the policy of shifting schools into Academy management is not serving the needs of #students, measured by schools' #OFSTED grading.

    However, given the economic structure of privately-run academies there is a group that are clearly benefiting (financially)...

  11. More evidence that the #academies system here in #England is creating little fiefdoms for power hungry asshole adults. Oh, so there'd been some vandalism and kids had been using their phones. There are more progressive ways to prevent negative behaviour and you could just ask kids to hand over their phones before going to the loo during lessons if it's such an issue. FFS.
