När forskarna själva får uttala sig.
« Torbjörn Fagerström och Jens Sundström hävdar på DN Debatt (17 juli) att Livsmedelsverkets rapport ger stöd för slutsatsen att ekologiskt jordbruk inte är bättre för miljön. Som författare av rapporten vill vi klargöra att vi anser att deras slutsats är onyanserad och kategorisk, och helt saknar stöd i vår rapport, skriver Birgit Landquist, Maria Nordborg och Sara Hornborg. »

😀 "Per Axbom ist ein UX Designer und Coach aus Schweden, welcher schon einige Publikationen rund um das Thema User Experience veröffentlicht hat. Sein Talk war nicht nur visuell witzig und ansprechend mit dem Rotkäppchen-Märchen hinterlegt, sondern fiel auch vom Denkansatz her auf. Denn im Gegensatz zum Approach «Don’t Make Me Think» (Steve Krug) zeigte Axbom in seinem Vortrag auf, was passiert, wenn eine Website versucht, den User mit permanent eingeschaltetem «Autopilot» von A nach B zu führen."

I was urged to learn more about the Paris massacres of 1961. It does not make anything acceptable, but provides context. Knowledge and comprehension is what will move humanity forward, not hate.
This article is written after the Paris attacks last year, not the more recent deadly events. But I in turn recommend further research for more insights.
"On October 17, 1961, at the height of the Algerian war of liberation against France, the Algerian FLN (National Liberation Front) organized a demonstration of Algerian workers and their families on the Right bank of Paris, right around the same area where Friday’s massacre took place. More than 200 people were killed by the Paris police all around the city."
