No Art on a Dead Planet: Political Iconoclasm as Climate Activism
Journal of Applied Philosophy, Volume 43, Issue 1, Page 215-234, February 2026.ABSTRACT A trend has recently emerged among climate activists of attacking artworks as a means of registering protest. I analyse this mode of protest, which I term political iconoclasm, and offer a novel partial defence of political iconoclasm as a protest strategy for environmental activists. I focus on Just Stop Oil's attack on van Gogh's Sunflowers.

Freeze‐Thaw Processes Induce Convective Fingering in Saline Soils
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 1, 16 January 2026.Abstract Saline soils in cold regions are often affected by freeze‐thaw processes, yet how these processes affect two‐dimensional salt transport dynamics remains poorly understood. Here, we show the importance of two‐dimensional flow induced by seasonal freeze‐thaw processes based on a validated numerical model.
