    'the Department of Health and Human Services told Ars Technica that “CDC has not yet finalized procurement decisions for COVID-19 vaccines through the Vaccines for Children and Section 317 programs.” The department...declined to answer the question of why there was a delay in the decision. But the statement suggested that Trump officials were questioning whether children should get the vaccine'

    Digital India: When Digitization Does Not Translate into Better Governance.

    Digital India has transformed how citizens access government services. But putting a process online is not the same as reforming it. If deadlines can be missed without automatic escalation or accountability, we may have digitized bureaucracy rather than transformed governance.

  24. I have a bit of a mind-crush on Daniela Gabor

    'The prospect of carbon shock therapy has made it more urgent than ever for states to scale up their planning capacity and establish a high-capital discipline, transformative public investment alternative: the big green state. This, we argue, is the pathway for the Santa Marta countries to achieve the decarbonized sovereignty imperative—the strategic pursuit of decarbonization as a matter of national security'

    'Aligning climate action with military armament risks fomenting nativism in an era of increasing climate-driven migration and far-right ascendency. Yet “energy security” is an intrinsic component of Europe’s new “security-security” goals. If “security” is going to dominate the next phase of the European project, how will climate and social agendas be fought for?'

  36. The federal government says communities should have meaningful input into #DataCentre development.

    But the public apparently wasn't consulted when those principles were written.

    I spoke with The Energy Mix about that contradiction, the lack of measurable accountability in Ottawa's principles, and something we're largely ignoring: cumulative impacts.

  40. A quotation from Molly Ivins

       It’s tacky to start playing the blame game before the dead are even counted. It is not too soon, however, to make a point that needs to be hammered home again and again, and that is that government policies have real consequences in people’s lives.
       This is not “just politics” or blaming for political advantage. This is about the real consequences of what governments do and do not do. And about who winds up paying the price.

    Molly Ivins (1944–2007) American writer, political columnist [Mary Tyler Ivins]
