On red meat: "this is sure to be controversial"
5 systematic reviews, including 100's of studies, millions of participants, RCTs, show little evidence for adverse #cancer or cardiovascular outcomes
annals.org/aim/fullarticl…
@AnnalsofIM ★editorial- 6 papers
@aaronecarroll @DrTiff_
@AnnalsofIM @aaronecarroll @DrTiff_ @IUMedSchool The 6 papers/guidelines are all #openaccess
annals.org/aim/latest
This does indeed fulfill the Dunning–Kruger effect
(The less people know, the more they actually think they know) owing, in part, to poor methodology/analysis/bias of #diet studies
@AnnalsofIM @aaronecarroll @DrTiff_ @IUMedSchool What a wacky day for #diet research:
1. Red meat may not be so bad for health risk, after all? (I haven't had for ~40 yrs)
2. ⬆️vegetarian diet by increasing choices; see @PNASNews by @eegarnett89 @MarteauTM
3. Cooked plant food ->⬆️ gut #microbiome diversity @NatureMicrobiol

The 1st systematic review of deep learning #AI for medical imaging @LancetDigitalH shows how early we are in the science & validation
by @DrXiaoLiu @FaesLiv @A_U_Kale @sktywagner @DunJackFu @Denniston_Ophth @pearsekeane me, et al; + @asset25's ★ editorial thelancet.com/journals/landi…
@LancetDigitalH @DrXiaoLiu @FaesLiv @A_U_Kale @sktywagner @DunJackFu @Denniston_Ophth @pearsekeane @asset25 "Perhaps the better conclusion is that, in the narrow public body of work comparing #AI w/ human physicians, AI is no worse than humans, but the data are sparse and it might be too soon to tell."
"stick to the facts, rather than risking ..... a third major AI winter."—@asset25

09/24/2019 30 BIG Hoaxes & Lies Perpetrated on Americans
Many of the elites of our world wish to control and own everything and to that end they have told some big lies. Here's some of the bigger ones.

Spygate and the Russian-collusion Narrative
Intelligence agencies, and many outside of our government, all colluded to take down our elected President. This in itself shows just how real Deep State is.

Like very many people I'm alarmed at the massive threat #ClimateChange directs at the people of this planet, a threat that is already killing large numbers of the poorest. Unlike #XR I don't think this can be tackled in a single issue apolitical manner - that approach will fail
The 1st reason for failure is obvious, the capitalist economic system goes into crisis when growth falls much below 3% a year. That 3% means production will double every 24 yrs so even renewables replace 40% of fossil fuels CC gas production will rise
The second is that for many people a threat in 2050 is impossibly distant in comparison with paying the rent at the end of this week. We need a movement that addresses immediate in your face problems of low rages, high rents, racism & all oppressions

Thread on diminished support for carbon taxes
Climatologists and economists have long viewed carbon taxation as the most effective way to curb greenhouse gas emissions. But with public awareness of #climatechange at an all-time high, reformers are now backing away from carbon taxes. Why?
A recurring theme in this week’s NYT Magazine, an issue devoted mostly to the climate crisis, is that carbon taxes are unpopular with voters.

Friend asked me for song suggestions on the theme of #ClimateChange. Odd because there are zillions of great lists online already.

So here are some #ClimateJusticeSongs that you may not have heard before. 1/

Saritah: "Here We Stand"
#ClimateJusticeSongs 2/

Ana Tijoux: "Todo Lo Sólido Se Desvanece En El Aire"

When the entire globe is "the commons" ... #climateChange is poised to be the last "tragedy of the commons"

A reminder that @TheEconomist is not a far-left publication. Natural resource economists have been silent here for far too long.

Science published
The Tragedy of the Commons by Garrett Hardin
on 13 Dec 1968

Cartoon, Kirk Anderson, Pioneer Press
"The tragedy of the commons develops in this way. Picture a pasture open to all. It is to be expected that each herdsman will try to keep as many cattle as possible on the commons...As a rational being, each herdsman seeks to maximize his gain... "
