This is pretty good. I like how she connected the dots to explain just how utterly baked-in our situation is. #collapse youtu.be/l7Ay73HHHrE?...

so, is this why I wasn't raptured?

Just yesterday I was dubbing and logging archival footage from UNFCCC COP6, Nov 2000. This statement by Rockström therefore is hitting extra hard.

This is aremarkable assertion of fact: More than 60,000 people died from heat in Europe during last year's record-breaking summer, a benchmark study said Monday, in the latest warning of the massive toll climate change is having on the continent.

if it's not one thing, it's another eh?

We told @time.com that journalists shouldn’t trade their independence for access to Pentagon spin. “Agreeing not to look where the government doesn’t want you to look and, by extension, not to print what it doesn’t want you to print, is propaganda, not journalism.”

I love how Jesse Welles's face lights up after the interviewer remarks witnessing the audience doing likewise as his lyrics landed. (cued) youtu.be/q9cwHLu4LC8?...

On brand. Remembering the time, not along ago, Cdn Gov. invited and applauded an actual WWII veteran Ukrainian Nazi on the same day Zelensky was a guest in Parliament. They either know what they are doing or they don't.

I wish my efforts to make things better went viral like my recent snark complaining about fascists did. I have a podcast called Future Mending Radio about the people and organizations who are solving multiple problems at once. Clothing swaps, food co-ops, ethical chocolate, bike parties.

Antarctica’s sea ice “tipping point” is here: new Nature study shows record-shattering ice loss, threatening global currents, sea levels, and ecosystems. Is this climate’s biggest story of 2025? #ClimateEmergency #Antarctica #SeaIceCollapse @paulhbeckwith.bsky.social youtu.be/jvT5SFjfnuA

In related news, have you noticed how "I condemn political violence" is a standard pre-fix to even the mildest commentary regarding this event. It reminds me how anyone speaking up for Palestinians must first condemn Hamas.

Help these two F Heads, would ya?

dude got martyred was my first reaction after jumping to the conclusion it wasn't the guy they said it was. I could be wrong, but wouldn't it be very very hard to make that target under a tent from an elevated position? anyway, on that... this is a good piece youtu.be/34_nScNLgaA?...

The AI 'workers' are getting ever more sophisticated. Don't be like the >100 followers.

“Everything was built on American tech,” ... “China’s capability was close to zero.”

- Climate expertise must shift from tech illusions to concrete proposals on sufficiency, redistribution, sectoral degrowth and structural change—or risk delaying meaningful action.

🌊The Gulf of Mexico is running hot(ter than it ever has) for early September. Waters that have been nearly untouched this summer/hurricane season are currently holding more heat than has ever been experienced in the era of modern record keeping. 🧵/1

I'd have built a hospital or hire a bunch of nurses, but wtf do I know?

My boy Otis before settling down to his mid-morning nap.

Seeing swathes of climate / energy people confidently quoting Google AI overviews, Grok / ChatGPT output, and 'community notes' on X as authoritative sources. Truly, I feel nothing but whiplash and horror at how fast so many people who once valued actual sourcing + real evidence have flipped

Almost 70% of this loss is due to unchecked groundwater extraction Crazy do they really think they can just keep doing this and the ground water will not run out

If "glaciers globally will lose 39 (range, 15 to 55)% of their mass relative to 2020, ... even if temperatures stabilized at present-day conditions.", then temps would certainly not be stable because less ice and larger oceans = less albedo. No?

Get your climate science feed topped up here. I'm picking the IPCC and @sarahinscience.bsky.social to follow as this pack comes around the first time. The latter because her pinned podcast looks interesting

Storage? The plan is to inject CO2 to help extract even more oil and gas. This plan was a disaster from the start, glad to see the cover lie is falling apart.
