Nun hat Brasiliens Präsident Lula in seiner Eröffnungsrede plötzlich eine Roadmap zum Ausstieg aus Fossilen ins Gespräch gebracht. Roadmap heißt: Ein Prozess. Die würde man wohl nicht hier beschließen, ein Datum schon gar nicht. Aber man könnte hier beschließen, dass so ein Prozess kommen soll.

Eine kleine Idee tanzt über die Flure der #COP30, ob sie ein ausgewachsenes Vorhaben werden kann, muss sich noch zeigen: Eine Roadmap zum Ausstieg aus Fossilen Energien. Hä? Ja, keine Sorge, zurücklehnen, ich erklär das. Thread

So. Wie angekündigt. Hier mein wütender Rant zum Thema #Frauengesundheit ab 35. Genau genommen zu den Themen #Perimenopause #Menopause #Wechseljahre. Und zu der unterirdischen ärztlichen Versorgung. Ja, ja, über die Themen spricht man nicht. Nee, genau das muss sich ändern! Denn wusstet ihr, 1/

19 deutsche CEOs fordern einen Fokus auf Klimaschutz. Der Chef von Wacker Chemie erklärt, wie das in eine Zeit passt, in der hohe Energiepreise ganze Industrien bedrohen.

Harald Lesch hat zu 100% recht! "Technologieoffenheit ist häufig ein Ausdruck für technologische Ahnungslosigkeit" und "Die Wärmepumpe ist die beste Maschine, die die Physik anzubieten hat, da gibt es keine Alternative" Endlich rechnet mal jemand mit diesem Bullshit-Argument der Union ab.

"Auf irritierende Weise werden zwei Bildungsbereiche gegeneinander in Stellung gebracht...währenddessen wächst der Eindruck, dass ...der politische Wille [fehlt], Bildung endlich als gesamtstaatliche Aufgabe zu begreifen statt als innerstaatlichen Verteilungskampf"

Copper fans, we did it! Copper is the very FIRST Ore Cup Champion & the Ore Mineral of the Year. Great job! 🙌 Thank you, Mineral Cup team. The content has been extra excellent, & another great Cup. Kudos! 290 days until #MinCup26 ! #OreCup ⚒️ sci-fi 🧪 🖖🏼 scifi Geosciences #WomenInSTEM geology 🍎 🔭🪐

Vergangene Nacht gab es auch bei uns in #Mecklenburg- #Vorpommern zeitweise #Polarlichter zu sehen. Die Bewölkungsverhältnisse ließen aber nur mancherorts etwas zu. Am Peilturm Kap Arkona auf #Rügen hat die Webcam gegen 03 Uhr #Auroraborealis eingefangen: kap-arkona.panomax.com/peilturm

Wenn alles hübsch segmentiert ist, wollen wir natürlich auch noch Daten gewinnen. Z.B. wieviel Insulin in den Zellen ist und wie es verteilt ist, oder mit anderen Organellen interagiert. Dafür nutzten wir Tools, die von @helmholtzimaging.bsky.social entwickelt wurden (siehe Bild).

Mexiko hat gestern ein Klimaziel für 2035 vorgelegt, das von Fachleuten als wirklich ambitioniert bewertet wird #COP30 www.wri.org/news/stateme...

Markttag in Dorf. Ein kleiner Junge am Olivenstand wählt eifrig mit seiner Mutter Sachen aus. J: "... und dann möchte ich noch was von dem Brokkoli!" M: "Was für Brokkoli?" J: "Die Kugeln da. Brokkoli halt." M: "Das ist Mozzarella" J: "Brokkoli, Mozzarella, egal. Hauptsache Gemüse." 🥰😅🥦

In Belize, women are tackling climate change and biodiversity loss on the ground, but gender equity is needed in government, too — COP30 should address this, says Elma Kay go.nature.com/4nQJ5Oe

I used to think I wanted to be a scientist, but when I really reflect, I just wanted to look at random things through fancy microscopes.

Wer in der Wissenschaft als exzellent gelten will, muss sichtbar sein. Nur: Frauen werden für Sichtbarkeit abgestraft. Sie können es schlicht nicht richtig machen! Kein Wunder, dass Gleichstellung im dt. Wissenschaftssystem schleppend vorangeht. Das #Sichtbarkeitsparadox: heute in #ArbeitInDerWiss!

Doing EDS analysis of the olivines I found for fun. It turns out that it is nearly pure Forsterite with only minor amounts of Fe 🥰

Copper crystals can form beautiful leafy patterns called dendrites from the Greek word dendron meaning tree. Dendrites grow due to mineral-rich fluids moving through cracks or during rapid cooling from a melt or vapor. Vote and more👇🏼 #OreCup ⚒️ sci-fi 🧪 🖖🏼 scifi Geosciences #WomenInSTEM geology 🍎 🔭🪐

Did you know. That the meme-explosion that was the wooden model of Sacabambaspis (an Ordovician jawless fish) held at a Museum in Helsinki, was created by a pioneering Estonian fish paleontologist and palaeoartist, Elga Mark-Kurik. 🧵

When people say "There weren't many women in palaeontology/palaeoart in the 19 & 20th century" they pretend that women in the Central & East Europe did not exist, despite ladies ruling the show in that corner of the world for a century.

Batteries are coming to Europe. Earlier this year Europe’s largest battery storage site went live at Blackhillock, Scotland. The facility has a capacity of 300MW/600MWh. Much larger batteries are under development: A huge 1 GW / 4 GWh system is being constructed in Jänschwalde, Germany.

Have you heard about this? "As the govt shutdown drags on, buildings at NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center (HQ for the Webb telescope among other missions) are being emptied without notice. Highly specialized equipment is at risk of being thrown away like trash." h/t @climatebrad.hillheat.com

#Copper has been holding on to an 8% lead most of the match. It’s a lot, but #Molybdenite could catch up. What topics should we cover in the #OreCup victory post?

1/3 Well this is a first (for me): Native #copper replaces ancient cross-bedded sedimentary rock perfectly preserving the original cross-bedding. Copper does amazing stuff in Michigan. 🤯 More below!

With 48 hours for the #OreCup final match, we just hit the halfway mark! Have you voted? Vote: www.mineralcup.org/vote-results... Do you need to campaign for your chosen fav? Results: www.mineralcup.org/vote-results... Will #Copper or #Molybdenum be our Ore Mineral of the Year?

copper has the full weight of human history on its side (the early Bronze Age was preceded by a Copper Age) and is crystallographically, chemically, metallurgically, and physically related to silver and gold, its heavier periodic table neighbors but I'm voting for molybdenite as a worthy underdog

Because it is so new, and because humans so recently learned how to use Mo and Re, I’m voting for the future of #Molybdenite and Space Age metallurgy. Mo and Re turn common metals into superconductive superalloys, with higher boiling points, improved weldability and corrosion resistance. 3/3

#Copper, copper, copper!!! It’s the final, please vote for the very best ore! #OreCup

The Old Copper complex, was an ancient Native American culture around Michigan that mined (>5,000 mines) & worked the 99% pure native copper for tools, weapons, and ornaments as far back as 9,500 yrs.

Only a few hours left to vote in the #OreCup semifinals of #Molybdenite vs #Bornite! vote: www.mineralcup.org/vote-results... results:

Bornite is great, but #molybdenite is not copper! I kid (kind of)! A soft, silver, greasy, hexagonal mineral that can look like JiffyPop, foil-wrapped leftovers, or metallic graphite. It can handle high-stress/high-temps, & it's anti-corrosive. Those seem like good qualities here & now! #OreCup

#OreCup R2M2: Silver hexagons for alloys & lubricants, or rainbow patches for copper wires & parts? It’s #Molybdenite vs #Bornite for which ore mineral moves to the final round. vote: www.mineralcup.org/vote-results... results:

Bei den Netzentgelten die Besitzer kleiner Solaranlagen belasten und die Einspeisevergütung ganz streichen, bei der Reduktion der Stromsteuer kein Geld für die Entlastung aller Stromkunden haben, aber klar, für die Gasumlage zur Entlastung der Gaskundrn, dafür haben wir Geld! Das ist unterirdisch!

Peacock ore Bornite is very pretty but only gets art/physics points as a source of copper & I’d rather vote for copper itself. So I am going to vote Molybdenite for physics reasons (source of Re for geochronology, Mo used as a catalyst, battery electrodes, alloys of iron & semiconductors). #OreCup

I went to see SUE the T. rex recently, and look who else I ran into! #copper

It feels like gloating, but #copper is romping home with this one! Sorry #ilmenite

I’ll grant Ilmenite a titanium-iron oxide mineral with idealized formula FeTiO3 some arts points for titanium dioxide white paint but it’s no match for copper’s centuries of blue-green pigments, bronze sculpture & direct use through art history! Vote Copper! #TeamCopper #OreCup #artHist

Copper has my heart.

#Bornite still has my vote with those peacock colors. Professional science nerd or not,sometimes my magpie brain takes over. #OreCup

I think about this post every day 🧪

Nov 7th is the birthday of both Lise Meitner & Marie Curie. Of the 13 chemical elements named directly after real people (not mythological figures) only two are named after women: meitnerium and curium (the latter of which is named in honour of both Marie & her husband) #chemsky 🧪

We didn’t always recognize #Molybdenite or know how to use Mo until the late 19th Century. Rh wasn’t discovered until 1908. After early experiments during WWI, automobile and aviation industries found uses for both elements in high-performance alloys. Then catalysts and medical uses. #OreCup25 ⚒️ 🧪

Might have to go with copper, i love me some tendrils.
