Hi. I'm sharing a pre-print by @anavaldi.bsky.social and me that is gaining traction @ssrn.bsky.social.

Kelly Key and Xuxa 😍 I hope there will be a chance to do some dancing at #AoIR2025! 🕺 (if I manage to go 🤞) As a Chilean I’m also highly appreciative of axé.
“If you consume water somewhere to the point where it affects biodiversity in one area, that cannot be offset by having a nice project elsewhere. You’re going to cause irreversible damage if you keep to that logic.”
Thanks for sharing your insights with us, Sebastián.
