An AI platform faked thousands of "citizen" comments to kill clean air rules in California. Democracy hacked. Lungs sacrificed. This is what corporate power looks like in 2026 — automated, invisible, lethal. Our voices are being replaced by bots. phys.org/news/2026-02...

Yep, includes clear-cutting. This is outrageous. The Heinävesi route is one of the most beautiful inland water routes we have. It's obvious that something is wrong in the forestry sector when these small areas of the last intact natural forests have to be harvested for bioenergy, pulp, and paper.

Which ant was your favorite? 🐜 Let us know in the comments. ⬇️ Dr. Julian Katzke walked us through how the Antscan project created 3D scans of over 2,000 ants from over 700 species. Using X-rays, these scans reveal the tiniest details, from leg hairs to even their internal anatomy.

I got really into the game Daybreak this winter, which is a cooperative board game about reversing global warming. It’s based in science and you learn about things people are already doing. I notice articles like this all the time now. It just took a little education and hope to see them.

If you haven’t watched this before, you really should. The brilliant Dr. Carl Sagan testifying before the United States Congress in 1985 on #ClimateChange. We should have listened then. Will we now? Remember, climate change isn’t an on & off switch. It’s an exponential dial. We’re making it worse.

Incredible report from @tbij.bsky.social about Spotify-verified AI rapper pushing anti-Muslim and pro-mass-deportation videos paid for by Advance UK, a nationalist party to the right of Reform.

Armed settlers in the West Bank are taking advantage of the fog of war to seize land and advance Israel’s ongoing dispossession and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. Settlers are invading communities, firing live ammunition, setting homes and cars on fire hrw.org/news/2026/03...

When a federal judge (finally) put ICE officers under oath, they admitted that they are given daily detention quotas and rely heavily on a Palantir-supplied AI tool to select targets, without warrants and without enough evidence to obtain one. They simply go into neighborhoods and round people up.

“We’re going to do what we did in Gaza,” a senior Israeli official says of Lebanon.

Extremely scary message. Deranged. Why are European countries still buying services from his company Palantir?

Glad to see this made public today. I responsibly disclosed with OpenAI that high-level information about the private work of students and staff using ChatGPT Edu at several universities can be viewed by thousands of colleagues across their institutions. No fixes were issued after one month.

"Achieving the UK’s net zero target by 2050 will cost less than a single oil shock and bring health and economic benefits while insulating the country against future costs, the government’s climate advisers have forecast." www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Cost of net zero by 2050 less than a single fossil fuel price shock. #climate eciu.net/media/press-...

“The UK's official climate adviser said the cost of meeting net zero is less than A SINGLE (my CAPS) fossil fuel price shock. £4 billion of additional spending per year to 2050 is required to stay on track for net zero, according to the Climate Change Committee.

Like the case of sugar in processed food, it is beyond me why governments don't act to control this. Any social media that tweaks their algorithms is a publisher and should be regulated accordingly, just like national broadcasting and advertising. bsky.app/profile/jmko...

A study of social media content 18-24-year olds see in #Finland, #France and #Romania shows that algorithms overwhelmingly feed them right-wing political content - whether or not the users are interested. Three country average for right wing content was 58% - in Finland, 67%! yle.fi/a/74-20214134

Not a single US newspaper will publish this photo. No news channel will broadcast it. The graves are being prepared for more than 80 young children killed in the US/Israeli strike on the school in Minab, Iran on Saturday. (📸 Middle East Observer)

I am pro Iranian people. I stand with them against their own government’s repression AND against the imperial violence in the form of bombs dropped from the sky from Israel & the US who have already killed hundreds. I support neither imperialism or dictatorship. Sahar Delijani said it best:

The genocide in Gaza has ended, and I found myself without a home, without a city, and everything around me past, present, and perhaps future is destroyed. I am trying to rebuild my life, and I hope you will support me, even in a small way. chuffed.org/project/1389...

“It all came to a head on Saturday when armed settlers descended on his home and viciously beat him, his wife, his daughter and his granddaughter…When his son and 14-year-old nephew tried to come to their aid, both were shot and wounded” Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/02/23/w...

“The climate scientists we surveyed were unambiguous: current economic models can’t capture what matters most – the cascading failures and compounding shocks that define climate risk in a warmer world – and could undermine the very foundations of economic growth.” Should be the top story everyday.

I have devoted much of my weather & climate career to engaging with journalists--including 200-300 news media interviews per year, many of which involve recurring conversations to facilitate timely & contextually accurate coverage. This recent collapse has been stunning and deeply disconcerting.

Some day we'll all regret this & we'll hold hearings & rend garments & pledge "never again" & we'll be just as full of shit as we were last time.

Let's try this again 👋 Hi Bluesky - I'm Massachusetts' Attorney General. You might know me from suing President Trump nearly 50 times, beating Uber and Lyft in court, or being the first woman of color elected to statewide office in MA. I officially left X today - help me find my MA people?

A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right. Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement. This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.

In the concentration camp universe, this is what's known as a filtration camp. A government preemptively takes a whole class of people to interrogate and detain extrajudicially in order to inflict duress on them while arbitrarily assessing their (supposed) culpability.

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Across #Gaza, humanitarian conditions remain dire, along with constraints on humanitarian access. UNRWA continues to provide essential services to displaced people, but the scale of needs exceeds what we are currently allowed to do. Restrictions must be lifted.

its amazing how chatgpt knows everything about subjects I know nothing about, but is wrong like 40% of the time in things im an expert on. not going to think about this any further
