    1. I don’t like our room a bit. I wanted one downstairs thatopened on the piazza and had roses all over the window, andsuch pretty, old-fashioned chintz hangings! but John wouldnot hear of it.He said there was only one window and not room for twobeds, and no near room for him if he took an other.He is very careful and loving, and hardly lets me stir withoutspecial direction

      This passage is troubling to me. John calls himself loving, but he controls every part of her life.This didn’t make her condition better,but made it worse.

    2. John is a physician, and perhaps— (I would not say it to a livingsoul, of course, but this is dead paper and a great relief to mymind)— perhaps that is one reason I do not get well faster

      I find this interesting because it shows irony. The narrator’s husband is a doctor, but instead of helping her recover, his actually makes her worse.

    3. I’ve got out at last,” said I, “in spite of you and Jane! AndI’ve pulled off most of the paper, so you can’t put me back!”

      This is troubling because the narrator believes she has escaped by tearing down the wallpaper, but in reality she has lost her sanity.

    4. That spoils my ghostliness, I am afraid; but I don’t care—there is something strange about the house— Ican feel it.

      The narrator sensed something that makes her insecure and afraid. And her emotions got triggered unreasonably because of it.

    5. Personally I believe that congenial work, with excitement andchange, would do me good.

      His husband and brother are both physicians, but they don’t seem to understand psychiatry. I actually think the main character, as a mental patient, knows better how to heal herself.

    6. Now why should that man have fainted?

      Surprising: This sentence surprising me because narrator have no idea what she done is crazy, she even confuse about why her husband fainted, showing she completely lose her mind.

      Given your area, if you haven't found it yet, you might appreciate going a generation further back in your references with: Mary P. Follett. Dynamic Administration: The Collected Papers of Mary Parker Follett, ed. by E. M. Fox and L. Urwick (London: Pitman Publishing, 1940). She had some interesting work in organization theory you might appreciate. Wikipedia can give you a quick overview. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Parker_Follett#Organizational_theory

    1. Drei führende Klimawissenschaftler kritisieren die Illusion der "Net Zero-Politiken", die darauf setzen, das 1,5°-Ziel durch die Entfernung von CO2 aus der Atmosphäre zu erreichen. Sie werfen vielen ihrer KollegInnen vor, unrealistischen Konzepten nicht offen entgegenzutreten, um ihren politischen Einfluss nicht zu verlieren. Sie kritisieren auch die bisherigen Integrated Assessment Models des Weltklimarats, die von der Voraussetzung ausgehen würde, die Klimakatastrophe ließe sich mit marktwirtschaftlichen Mitteln beheben und fordern auf, deutlich zu sagen, dass sich eine Erhitzung der Erde auf 3 und mehr Grad nicht durch kleine Schritte, sondern nur durch einen Bruch mit dem bisherigen Wirtschaftssystem erreichen lässt.

      Anstatt uns unseren Zweifeln zu stellen, beschlossen wir Wissenschaftler, immer aufwändigere Fantasiewelten zu konstruieren, in denen wir sicher wären. Der Preis, den wir für unsere Feigheit zahlen mussten: Wir mussten den Mund halten über die immer größer werdende Absurdität der geforderten Kohlendioxid-Entfernung im planetarischen Maßstab.

      Greta Thunberg hat diesen Aufsatz als einen wichtigsten und informativsten Texte zur Klima- und ökologischen Krise bezeichnet.

    1. Der neue Planetary Health Check des Potsdam Instituts für Klimafolgenforschung ergibt, dass durch die Versauerung der Ozeane möglicherweise gerade die siebte von 9 planetaren Grenzen durchbrochen wird und die Biosphäre auch hier in eine Hochrisikozone eintritt. Bei allen anderen mit Ausnahme des Ozonschwunds haben sich die Bedingungen verschlechtert. Die CO2- Emissionen treiben die Versauerung an, die wiederum die Fähigkeit der Ozeane mindert, als CO2-Senke zu wirken. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2024/sep/23/earth-breach-planetary-boundaries-health-check-oceans

    1. Yet thou triumph’st, and say'st that thou <br /> Find’st not thy self, nor me the weaker now;

      In lines 23 and 24, the listener finally speaks, claiming that by killing the flea, she is not weak. By saying this, she essentially says that there was no harm in killing the flea, as it took both their blood.

    1. Over a 10-year period, up until three weeks before his death, we exchanged 150 letters. After Oliver passed away, I had to find a way to handle my sadness. So, I revisited all our letters and wrote a new book, Dear Oliver: An Unexpected Friendship with Oliver Sacks, as a tribute to exploration, letter-writing, friendship, and Oliver Sacks.

    2. once I began to see in 3D, I realized how wrong I had been. My theoretical knowledge of stereopsis did not prepare me in the least for the experience of seeing in stereo. Dr. Sacks must have suspected that stereopsis would provide me with an astonishing new way of seeing, one that I could not even have imagined

    3. I answered Dr. Sacks’s question casually, saying that I believed that I knew what it was like to see in 3D. After all, I was a neurobiology professor and had read plenty of scientific papers on stereopsis.

    1. Reportage über Guayana, das über Ölvorkommen verfügt, die die Kuwaits oder der Arabischen Emirate übertreffen. Sie werden von Exxon Mobil ausgebeutet, wobei Guayana selbst nur einen Bruchteil der Einnahmen erhält. Die globale Erhitzung ist bereits deutlich spürbar. Das Land betreibt Zertifikat-Handel mit seinen Waldgebieten, um formal als CO- neutral zu gelten.https://taz.de/Streit-um-Guyana-Essequibo/!5991174/
