- We’re doing great 👍🙄
- This research paper is the first time that a tipping point of a switch from a carbon sink to a carbon emission source in tropical rainforests has been identified clearly – not just for one year but for the last 20 years. Cause is a change in the local climate. www.theguardian.com/environment/...
- No mention of the massive societal upheaval that'll come from having robots working in supermarkets and hotels. What do we do with the unemployed? They did raise the concern that to train them properly we'd probably have to give up a lot of our privacy. Tops. Only a brief sentence on military use
- 2024 was the hottest year on record, then 2023 and 2025. 2023 was the end of a triple-dip La Niña, when the global climate is in the cooler phase. 2023-2024 was a strong El Niño, and 2024-2025 a weak La Niña. Most El Niños will be record breakers from now on. #ClimateChange
- news.mongabay.com/short-articl... For children born now this year will be their relatively calm & relatively cool year. As the burning of fossil fuels continues, global temperatures will continue to rise, triggering worse fires, storms, floods, heatwaves, rising sea levels… The time to act is NOW.
- '..let’s focus on making sure this won’t happen again.' Good luck with that, while Littleproud is still leading The Nationals. He's the reason for the two splits and it appears that his only negotiating tactic is to chuck his toys out of the cot #auspol www.theguardian.com/australia-ne...
- '...nothing has been able to contain the fires.' #ClimateChange www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...
- Seriously, they don’t have anyone better?
- The Nature obituary for Gladys Mae West, a mathematician that made amazing contributions to geodesy. Like the SEASAT project, which successfully demonstrated the use of radar altimetry to monitor sea levels. Tech that is vital today to track one of the main impacts of climate change. #ClimateChange
