Bernd Hamm made very clear for who our government is: the global ruling class of a few hundred billionaires, served by the CEO of the multi-national companies. The (not our) governments make sure the CEO have the rules they need to make sure the wealth flows to the ruling class.

Alien Intelligence #AI is a great tool for #disinformation #misinformation. #Grokipedia is a misnomer. I would think a #creep would call it #Creepipedia.

"As an Indigenous man, I know very well the pain of the forest, because its body is an extension of ours." Why don't we all listen to those like Wajã Xipai who are still connected with this incredibly unique #Earth? Thank you @jonathan-watts.bsky.social #COP30 www.theguardian.com/environment/...

Unfortunately, there is no #ocean #heatwave. The ocean is being heated by an #Earth #Energy Imbalance now 800 TeraWatt, 40 times the total energy used by humanity. The heating will continue, many #species will go functionally #extinct. #climateemergency #coral www.theguardian.com/environment/...

This week the WMO confirmed the 2024 atmospheric CO2 level and annual rise data. You may have seen headlines about it setting new records and concern about the planet’s ability to absorb our emissions. Here is why we should be extremely worried 👇🧵

What role has the idea of progress played in building civilization and its gifts, as well as dispossessing, enslaving, or even eradicating billions of people and animals over the last 5,000 years? This interview with @popnbalance.bsky.social gives a good overview: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ij2X...

This morning's GFS shows the Northern Hemisphere more than 1.64°C over the 1981-2010 baseline on October 23, which is more than 2.2°C above the 1850-1900 pre-industrial baseline. The Climate 8-ball is smoking. www.karstenhaustein.com/climate

🌍 Adaptation vs. Mitigation? It’s not either/or. #WRIClimate found 50%+ of 300+ #adaptation projects also cut emissions through climate-smart farming, greener cities & resilient renewables. Both can happen at once — explore 6 strategies 👉 bit.ly/4m4H3JD

Those who want to help those starving in #gaza are being mistreated by those who caused the starving. I have deep respect for #gretathunberg and those with her in this effort, and no respect for those who prevent help for starving people! www.theguardian.com/world/2025/o...

Humans use on average 100 W just to stay alive. Why would any alien super intelligence want us around? ASI needs all energy for itself, and it can build more energy efficient slaves than human slaves would be! #AI #ASI

Utter criminal incompetence Why did they even build a desalination plant? They are expensive to run and we don't need them (yet anyway 😊) Typical of Thames water to spend on this nonsense instead of reducing leaks and stopping pumping raw sewage into our rivers www.theguardian.com/business/202...

"Of the various causes of collapse the one most overlooked, and potentially the most harmful, is delusion - the capacity of humans to believe whatever they wish, regardless of the facts. A species that does not believe it is in danger is very unlikely to avoid it." cribb.substack.com/p/died-of-a-...

Come July 24 at 5 pm PT to a Third Act conversation with Jane Fonda and Bill McKibben, talking about how to keep hope alive for our climate and democracy, and what we can all do next. We’ll have updates to share about Sun Day, as well! Register with #thirdactsocal at: thirdact.org/bay-area/eve...

"Altman, along with the heads of the other top AI labs, believes that AI-driven extinction is a real possibility ... Given all this, it’s natural to ask: should we really try to build a technology that may kill us all if it goes wrong?" My Answer: NO! #AI #AGI www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Good luck generating power once the glaciers have gone www.theguardian.com/world/2025/j...

☀️ This Wednesday join Bill McKibben, Third Act staff, and Sun Day partners as they discuss why we must dramatically accelerate and scale-up solar energy and how Sun Day will help achieve this goal. Sign up at thirdact.org/events/sun-d...

Tackling the human and planetary existential emergency (www.place4us.net/PED) we have caused requires a Global Citizen Movement (GCM). It requires global collaboration in the GCM to overcame #disinformation an to plan impactful actions across the planet. #Place4Us www.youtube.com/watch?v=SLv3...

“Ocean acidification isn’t just an environmental crisis – it’s a ticking timebomb for marine ecosystems" Rothman (2017) estimated that the #carbon overload of the #ocean could happen 2100+-50 years.

Not reporting on the #climateemergency doesn't make it less urgent and threatening. Blocking the #NCA6 is an act of intentional #negligence with foreseeable consequences of less informed governance, increased #disasters, more climate fatalities. #protests www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The authors of the #NCA6, a congressionally mandated climate report, were all dismissed from their volunteer roles in what was a “gut-wrenching” and “disempowering” move. The report isn’t technically cancelled, but its future is highly uncertain. @nytimes.com: www.nytimes.com/2025/04/28/c...
