Who could possibly have predicted that a company whose slogan is "cheat on everything" would cheat?

Even dumber than strategerist GWB, Trump bankrupted Casinos! Perfectly qualified to surrender to Iran.
A weak little traitor parasite, like every racist bitch who voted for him.
Thiel, Putin, Musk, MBS, Vought brought us this wrecking ball puppet, assaulting the USA. May they all RIH quickly.
2) Overshoot will not be temporary or even reversible. Some of the proposed plans to reverse temperatures are, upon inspection, extremely threadbare, serving as little more than mood music intended to maintain optimism. The reality is that large-scale carbon dioxide removal, does not exist. 5/11
Russia is sending election operatives to Hungary to prop up Orban. The dirty tricks to support Putin’s puppet in the EU will be off the chart.
"the aspiration–reality gap reflects not a deficit of intent but a structurally conditioned feasibility ceiling. Reducing systemic frictions, rather than exhorting professionals to ‘aim higher’, is foundational to enabling PEB [pro environment behaviour]-supportive design."
This is important. There are some folks investigating heating, energy etc, what about material resources, to lower demand? This is going under the radar.
Costa Rica has shown it *IS* possible to bring back nature on a mass scale, as @thinkorswim.bsky.social outlines in this great piece.
Meanwhile in Ireland all we get is, at best, incremental change and fudging.
Why is Irish nature always just an afterthought?

Great!!
Sheep are a *top* cause of nature loss.

I was very kindly asked by the @museumofchildhood.bsky.social to contribute a personal story related to my childhood and nature, which I did.

Wind energy will provide windfalls.
Nobody wants to buy expensive LNG because it causes our babies to drown, and the babies that don’t drown to burn to death, and the babies that didn’t burn to death to starve to death.
LNG is a mass murder fuel.

It’s good to see this - but it is frustrating that it’s only starting to be accepted among main stream climate scientists so late - the warming rate has been accelerating for quite a few decades now, and the acceleration is also accelerating.
The energy imbalance is the driver. The thermometers lag
"Wow. A big drop" -- CNBC highlights that labor force participation is now the lowest it has been since in late 2021, before the covid vaccine was widely available
War in the Middle East boosting demand for #renewables, as countries and businesses seek to diversify their sources of energy and shield themselves from external shocks.

We didn’t confront the deep dysfunctions in our political systems, we failed to rein in our destruction. There are consequences to this failure. If one of these is we realise we must turn our attentions and efforts to radical mitigation, then we would have learnt something important. END

In addition to purchasing rooftop solar, there are several other ways that you can shift to renewable power from fossil fuels. Here are some of the methods that you can use. 🧪🔌💡☀️💨💧🔋 a 🧵 www.energy.gov/eere/solar/h...
Fish concentration camps are as bad as chicken concentration camps.
Horrendous conditions where animals are forced to live in their own shit.
No wonder extremely infectious diseases spread so easily when humans practice concentration camp farming.
the_thinking_great_ape You know what WON'T get stuck in the Strait of Hormuz? Sunlight and solar panels. @nickofnz
Stop callinge them "data centers" and starte callinge them "slop peripherals"
40% of US rail freight is also fossil fuels, mostly coal. Wind coal down and you free up a lot of rail resources! Some of which could be converted to fast electric passenger trains, which in countries with modern transport infrastructure are faster than air travel for most trips under 1000 miles.
Has anyone ever reported out a story asking anti-vax/science people : “when in your life did you stop believing science?”
Like, kids (at least in my experience) are fascinated w/learning. I believe my job as a parent is to foster that and help them learn how to learn. So when do folks turn away?
Legacy media is failing democracy. Rather than just complain, I did something about. Six years ago I started Democracy Docket from scratch. Now it has more than 400,000 subscribers. But to help protect democracy, it needs to grow and scale. Subscribing now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz
Spring is time for replacing rotten stakes in the fence between my own place and the mountain commonage.
Satisfying work, since it's vital to protecting an emerging Atlantic rainforest ecosystem from sheep.
And *what* a view!
The fastest and cheapest way to alleviate rapid electric load growth is through expanding investment in energy efficiency and demand flexibility.
