Science as a whole needs to switch to an open, online, crowd-sourced model of publication and review. This is a field where the whole AI/LLM craze could actually be useful as the algorithms would be able to summarize important points (better than the politically-restricted abstract and conclusion), rank studies on novelty, and identify the most common replicability errors. I'm all for human reviewers losing their "jobs" to AI.
Heck why not make the whole exercise crowd-funded while we're at it. Studies funded by governments, NGOs, or industry will always have a specter of bias. Something like Kickstarter or Patreon for research would at least bring science closer to what people are interested in.
Five low-emitting countries with large populations – India, Indonesia, Pakistan, Nigeria and China (currently the world’s largest emitter) – would be entitled to receive $102tn
Lmfao. Sure, let's pay trillions to our Chinese overlords. I've looked up the "researcher" in question. I was expecting his name to be Li Zhang or something but it's Andrew Fanning. He looks more like a brainwashed cultist than a Chinese shill but hard to say.
All of these countries are absolutely horrendous in terms of (actual) human rights and environmental pollution. It's almost funny, if it wasn't so tragic.
Turns out the best way to avoid environmental damage doesn't involve burning less coal or dumping less waste in your rivers, it's just not reporting on your emissions or environmental disasters. This trustworthy man says so.
"Fallen Angels" by Larry Niven, Jerry Pournelle, and Michael Flynn is a science fiction novel set in a future Earth enduring an ice age. In this world, a totalitarian environmentalist government suppresses technology. When a group of stranded astronauts crash-land on Earth, they face the government's efforts to capture and control them. With the help of a network of rebellious individuals, the astronauts must navigate treacherous landscapes and evade authorities to reach the independent space station "Fiddler's Green" and escape the oppressive regime, while also shedding light on the true environmental situation of the planet.
Remember folks, peer reviewed just means their fellow cunts agree with them.
Unless you know and respect the journal's structure of rigor and integrity (which should be vanishingly few these days) it means nothing.

Oh look... it just so happens the solution to this greatly exaggerated mostly made-up problem is global communism....
I miss when we were facing the next ice age, at least some good Sci Fi came out of it.
