I am so excited to see this article out! Published today, my latest article reviews work within human geography on climate futures, and work outside of human geography on queer time. Here, I argue that planetary imaginaries are entangled in the policing of intimacies.

This week the first article from my PhD was published! This piece explores the belief that our planet is hurtling towards self-inflicted extinction. By working closely with Extinction Rebellion, I examine how demands to halt planetary extinction shape the future.
