Okay, I have to do a thread on this pretty amazing article because it is just seriously chockers with eye-opening stats about 'direct air capture' - ie, sucking up air and trying to remove carbon dioxide from it news.mit.edu/2024/reality...

@greenprofgreen.bsky.social thanks for your smart and helpful analysis on CBC this morn.

This hits so many nails. For me, it’s the gutting reminder that it took 150+ years to get from the Reformation to the Enlightenment. I’m not sure what counts as the start of whatever historians will call this period, but my god that’s a long way to go.

I love this case study. It really captures not just the material principles of circularity but also the social and cultural ones. A beautiful example of how we can fundamentally shift from zero-sum, extractive systems to regenerative relationships that create common value.

Similar but different, my new word is “Seasonance” - seasonal dissonance. As in “Having a bad case of seasonance today in Toronto; it’s Nov 18th and I’m wearing a tank top.”

I've argued we need to have this convo out loud. Here it is. Does it help? Does it inspire necessary empathy or just validate existing views? Does it give credence to perspectives based on objectively false premises? Or reveal ethical nuance we can't ignore? Give me your hot takes.

First post feels like walking into a party full of strangers and not knowing what kind of party it is. Do I lead with “and what do you do for work?” or show you my boys’ baby pics while lamenting “they are both taller than me now.” Or ask “how you enjoying the end of civilization?” Weird clown pic?
