Young people's voices on climate anxiety, Government betrayal and moral Injury
"This study offers the first large-scale investigation of climate anxiety in children and young people globally and its relationship to government response. We surveyed 10,000 young people...in ten countries. Data were collected on their thoughts and feelings about climate change, and government response. Respondents were worried about climate change (59% very or extremely worried, 84% at least moderately worried). Over 50% felt sad, anxious, angry, powerless, helpless, and guilty. Over 45% said their feelings about climate change negatively affected their daily life and functioning, and many reported a high number of negative thoughts about climate change. Respondents rated the governmental response to climate change negatively and reported greater feelings of betrayal than of reassurance" https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=3918955
In the inaugural post of this blog dated September 18, 2019, I referenced a significant essay by Professor Bendell titled 'Deep Adaptation: A Map for Navigating Climate Tragedy.' In this work, Professor Bendell challenges the notion of despair as solely detrimental, dismissing it as paternalistic. He asserts that despair can serve as a crucial step in comprehending and responding to an overpowering reality, such as the climate catastrophe. This sense of despair might catalyze a transformative shift among the youth in affluent nations, prompting those with a high carbon footprint to transition from being contributors to the problem to becoming active participants in the solution.
PS - Let´s just hope the aforementioned despair does not lead to radicalization and eco-terrorism actions https://pacheco-torgal.blogspot.com/2019/10/climate-crisis-youth-movements-and-eco.html

Country ranking of research success using Stanford highly cited scientists list
See below a paper that was put online this month. Check Table 1 in page 11 for the country ranking normalized by number of inhabitants and GDP.
"Bibliometrics provides accurate, cheap and
simple descriptions of research systems and should lay the foundations for
research policy. However, disconnections between bibliometric knowledge and
research policy frequently misguide the research policy in many countries. A
way of correcting these disconnections might come from the use of simple
indicators of research performance. One such simple indicator is the number of
highly cited researchers, which can be used under the assumption that a
research system that produces and employs many highly cited researchers will be
more successful than others with fewer of them. Here, we validate the use
of the number of highly cited researchers (Ioannidis et al. 2020; PLoS Biol
18(10): e3000918) for research assessment at the country level and determine a country ranking of research
success"

Paper - "Civil disobedience in scientific authorship"
https://pacheco-torgal.blogspot.com/2021/03/how-many-papers-can-superscientist.html
Still following the above posts about those scientists who can even write articles in their sleep and who are ruining science integrity (because if it is humanly possible that someone can produce hundreds of publications in a single year then those who can only produce two or three dozen in the same period must be dumb and those who produce less than a dozen of these then can only be mentally retarded) it is worth reading the article below from researchers at Maastricht University and Basel University. where the case of professor Sarah Elgin is mentioned, as an example of civil disobedience:

Será que a organização criminosa PCC já se instalou na capital Portuguesa?
https://pacheco-torgal.blogspot.com/2021/08/desgracadamente-portugal-esta-quase.html
Parece que os episódios de uso de metralhadoras na cidade de Lisboa, por membros de associações criminosas, referidos no post acima, acabam de ter novos desenvolvimentos que hoje fazem capa no semanário "Nascer do Sol, num artigo onde são reproduzidas declarações de um oficial da policia, que afirma que a situação está a ficar muito grave, o que somado ao facto de já há uma década atrás as autoridades Portuguesas terem tomado conhecimento que os EUA admitiam a possibilidade da existência de tentáculos do PCC em Portugal, legitimar a pergunta, será que a organização criminosa Primeiro Comando da Capital (leia-se a Irmandade de Criminosos, segundo o El País) já se instalou de armas e bagagens na capital Portuguesa ?
