I don’t think people around the world realize how bad the attack on Lebanon was today. It’s BAD. Like 9/11 BAD. Hospitals are overflowing and do not have enough blood. We still don’t know what the death toll is. This is TERRORISM. Pure and Simple. April 8. Never forget.

I remember as a kid wondering what 2025 would look like. We all speculated flying cars, robots doing work... Never would I have imagined the world got completely stupid as we are now. We can see the problems, there are solutions to the problems, but we don't act. Why? Because greed won't let us.

Question for my American friends. How does a three part government protect from authoritarian rule when one part controls all the mechanisms of enforcement? The executive branch can ignore all laws and supreme court ruling with impunity. They control the army and law enforcement. Very flawed.

Our global study on the state of trust in scientists is now out in Nature Human Behaviour! 🥳 With a team of 241 researchers, we surveyed 71,922 people in 68 countries, providing the largest dataset on trust in scientists post-pandemic 👇🧵https://www.nature.com/articles/s41562-024-02090-5

I'm usually a fairly optimistic guy. Not much really gets me worried, but the state of the world is making me petrified. The wealthy are positioning themselves in a class war, using massive wealth and influence to buy governments and social media to drown out people sounding the alarm. I'm helpless

We already have more climate people here (3850 so far on the feed I curate!), but I still log into X once in a while to invite those remaining to join us. Every time I do, though, I’m reminded forcibly why I’m not there. Today, for example, there were 1.4K comments like this awaiting me. 1.4K 😳

How can this be permitted to occur daily for extended periods? Having worked on numerous oil and gas sites, I've never witnessed a flare this polluted for such a prolonged duration. Alberts government will just sit on their hands. #enivronmentCanada #climateaction #climatejustice
