🚨The most important NASA graph in the world has another 6 months of data, and it looks even worse. 🚨 NASA CERES satellites measure how much sunlight Earth absorbs and how much heat is radiated back to space. The difference is heat accumulation, which has more than tripled over the past 26 years!

Fact check: true.

I once said this to @amywestervelt.bsky.social and I stand by the statement. “I don't think you can call anything where you're getting more oil out of the ground to burn a climate solution.” drilled.media/news/ccs

tl;dr: from a climate pov plant proteins are usually best. eggs, chicken and farmed fish come next; many protein sources have quite a wide range of variation in their emissions though, depending on how exactly they're produced.

What is the best way to reduce our diet’s carbon footprint? Many argue that comparisons based on global averages overlook the large variation in the footprints of foods across the world.

tbh I love my standing desk it was overall a great improvement over the thing i used previously, and I certainly move more when I'm standing, still i find the alarmism annoying

Was ich mich schon frage: wir haben massive Ungleichheit in so vielen Bereichen, Lifestyle Vermögen medizinische Versorgung etc etc wo es uns egal ist. Aber beim co2 regen wir uns auf? Smells fishy.

"extreme heat, fire, droughts displacing > 200000 and killing > 20000 in Europe, happens on a 1.4°C planet. We are inevitably breaching 1.5°C and heading towards 3°C. It will get worse before it potentially gets better (if we urgently change course)" - jrockström www.nytimes.com/2026/07/29/w...

Es müsste nicht ganz so heiß sein Wien, zumindest nicht in der Nacht. Wäre die Stadtregierung beispielsweise etwas mutiger gegenüber der Autolobbby. Was, nebenbei bemerkt, klassische sozialdemokratische Politik für die Schwächsten der Gesellschaft wäre. www.jetzt.at/artikel/snUS...

Environmental and human destruction because of one man's flaws, enabled by the Republican Congress.

Good visual reminder that war not only has large human and economic costs, it can have environmental impacts as well.

FoxNews, der wichtigste Sender der MAGA-Crowd, verlegt Ceuta von Nordafrika nach Nordspanien und der US-Vizepräsident verbreitet die FakeNews weiter. Und Millionen Amerikaner·innen glauben die Lüge. (via @chorherr.bsky.social)

Notable: In its 15th 5-Year Plan, China pledges for the first time to "constructively lead the multilateral governance process to address climate change,” so that its "influence, guiding capacity, shaping power and moral appeal in global climate governance will be significantly enhanced."

So far this year we've had: the warmest winter on record in the mountain west, a record-shattering heat wave in Europe, once in a thousand year rainfall and flooding texas and forest fire smoke blanketing the mid west and the north east. Feels like something's going on with the climate!

Austrian tidbits - a newly built clinic that didn't have functioning AC - schools where parents collected money to get at least some fans installed to be turned down by admin - building regulation that prohibits installing external blinds

PS: i'd like to add that none of these failings have to do with misguided green/leftist environmentalism and everything with conservative "we have always done things this way why would we change" and generic climate denial, denouncing adaptation as "climate hysteria"

don't get me started on the people that insist that summers always have been hot and who are choosing to ignore thousands of heat dead, thats a separate rant

Die Hitze macht auch vor den Wehrlosen in unserer Gesellschaft nicht Halt - den Autos. Wir brauchen jetzt eine nationale Förderungsinitiative für den Umstieg auf Monstertrucks, die mit aufgerissenem Asphalt problemlos zurecht kommen und sich für die Mad-Max-Endzeitkämpfe der Zukunft eignen.

This discussion puts its finger squarely on one of the two thorniest issues of geoengineering - namely that, to succeed, it would require multidecadal stable and rational governance of the countries and entities involved. How's that going, these days?

A bunch of European AI policy and engineering guys asked me to help out on this project and it's been fascinating and chilling: what happens to the EU if it doesn't step up on AI (in short, economic collapse and vassalage to the US/China) europe2031.ai long but I hope worth it!

#OE1 I love you guys but please can you stop with cringe fearmongering around cybersecurity and AI? No #Mythos is not a "Hacker-AI". No Mythos cant access every phone on the planet. No, just because some contractors had access for a time doesn't mean "the program" ...
