- I'm excited to announce the official Nullschool app is here! earth.nullschool.net on mobile browsers works fine, but the app is nicer. Full screen display, persistence across sessions, text size that matches device settings. Even landscape works well. And, like the website: no ads! Links below ⬇️

- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioFuck you people. Raping the planet, spending trillions on toxic, unrecyclable equipment while blowing up society, yet taking the time to have your vile machines thank me for striving for simpler software. Just fuck you. Fuck you all. I can't remember the last time I was this angry.
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioThis Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

They are hostile to energy productivity for the same reason John Henry didn't like the steam shovel. They can't compete with it. Wins for consumers come at their expense. Wins for the climate come at their expense.
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioHundreds of people across Japan have sued the central government seeking damages for "unconstitutional" inaction on climate change, saying the country's "grossly inadequate" response jeopardizes health and livelihoods. 👉 ebx.sh/mhzIcg
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioI'm not sure most folks are aware of the immense magnitude of loss this would entail for the global weather and climate community, and beyond. NCAR has played a greater cumulative role in advancing weather prediction and atmospheric modeling than perhaps any other single entity in the world.

- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioAnother insane move from the Trump regime. One of NCAR's contributions to climate science is the development of the Community Earth System Model (CESM), which is used by researchers worldwide. Here's a simulation of air-sea CO₂ fluxes from CESM.
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioNSF is about to dismantle NCAR at Russell Vought's direction to protect the fossil fuel industry. It's hard to communicate just how much NCAR does, so let's take a look: I've never worked at NCAR, and I've worked with NCAR researchers once ever. What scientific discoveries has NCAR made possible? 👇

- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioOkay, yes, humanity did not enact the single best possible outcome in response to the single worst problem we have ever faced as a species In no way was it wrong to try, and in no way is it wrong to continue trying to jam a wrench in the greedy fossil fuel economy.

- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioI recommend checking out the profiles and records of the people that went through this program while you still can: cpo.noaa.gov/fellowships/ They are a testament to how a small amount of federal funding can seed a tremendous increase in knowledge and understanding.
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioYou think that vast armed force is going to be used just for immigration? I doubt it. Watch for ICE duties to expand duties and for ICE to follow the pattern of militarization of police. Also watch it used as secret police against anything anti-ICE.
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioThe energy provisions in the Republicans' One Big Horrible Bill are truly so bad! Who wants this? The country's automakers don't want it. Electric utilities don't want it. Data center developers don't want it. Manufacturers in energy intensive industries don't want it. 🔌💡
- Reposted by Cameron Beccario"Build as much clean energy as possible as fast as possible" should be our No. 1 national priority in the coming decade. All our national resources should be bent to the task. The president should talk about it every week in a national address. It should be the moon shot X100.
- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioEXTREMELY ANNOYING The climate movement spent millions of $ over decades focusing on just transition, helping displaced workers, yet climate action still gets broadly criticised as causing 'job losses' Tech bros pop up saying "I WANT TO DESTROYJOBS ASAP" and get a glowing write-up in the NYT 🤨🧐🆒🗑️

- Reposted by Cameron BeccarioIt's been a rough week for the NOAA family, including feds, contractors, and scientists across this country / world. I need to say something very important. It is my motivation to get you the weather, water and climate data you need, regardless of what has, or will happen to us.

It scarcely needs stating at this point that this is wildly, unambiguously unconstitutional. Dictator shit.
