Hi environment friends,

Had a total brain implosion, cause I just realized that next week I will 
be in a train to Barcelona and will not be able to present my work.

The reading group will happen with a great piece by Theodora Dryer: 
Water justice and technology. The Covid-19 crisis, computational 
resource control, and water relief policy 
<https://ainowinstitute.org/publication/water-justice-and-technology-report>

See you all in three weeks
