Lula’s win is the first good news for the planet in a while! I bet it shaves a tenth of a degree off how hot our earth eventually gets, which will save millions of lives Thank you Brazil!

Great discussion with Olya Irzak on just how high the methane leakage may be from off-grid data centers powered by low-efficiency reciprocating gas engines. Another reason to ensure that if data centers are built, they are on the grid!

A little thread: Science is defiantly anti-fascist because it pursues truth, is necessarily collaborative, and relies on open communication. And because its falsifiability is incompatible with the cultism, faith-based belief systems, disinformation, and propaganda of Christian nationalism.

I did a quick calculation and this tank contains the explosive energy of 5 sticks of dynamite. Pressure times volume = 7e7 Pa * 0.07 m^3 = 5 megajoules (MJ) of energy. A stick of dynamite contains about 1 MJ.

General Motors unveils a new EV platform built around LMR batteries and a more efficient drive unit. The LFP cost parity claim is interesting: they must be comparing it per kWh to US produced LFP. It will also be interesting to see the cycle life of LMR. #batteries #battchat #greensky #energysky

i really do think that a successful impeachment and removal of hegseth is a live possibility if dems win the senate. he is a genuine disaster.

@columbiaigp.bsky.social Thinking about #BAAJA, one of the likely outcomes of the US Senate bill seems like cheaper global LNG from more US export capability. Is this correct? If so, how would this impact renewable deployments around the world?

I really don't think most people appreciate how much damage air pollution does to our bodies & brains. Even in the last 10 years the science has progressed a ton & everything it has discovered is *grim*.

This convo between host Autumn Brown and Bill McKibben about the midterm elections and the impact of Minneapolis on the American narrative seemed quite timely. May we all have the courage to live in hope and to stand up for what's right. Season 5 of Climate Changed coming Spring 2027

Trump’s brain is full of slop. He should be in a place where no one has to listen to him. Listening to his slop is a mistake. It will junk up your own brain if you listen too much.

Love thy neighbor…

The GOP is happy keeping the nuclear access codes in this man's hands. Think about that as you prepare to vote.

This is Tommy. Tommy had a question about my allegiances. Listen to the end to hear about his.

We live in a white supremacist country run by white supremacist fascists. This is inexcusable. It's everyone's job to fight this bullshit the rest of our lives.

Does arresting the wife of an enlisted man and mother of four US citizen children, a person who’s been here since she was 6 years old, make our country great again?

A memo from senior insurance-industry officials warning that insurance modelers are being pressured to downplay climate in their models & that many insurers are already planning their exist from key markets. An explosive fuckup on the scale of the mortgage crisis is building.

Health-climate warning labels at gas pumps are gaining political momentum as research shows they can shift consumer attitudes away from fossil fuels. Health organizations can help: Speak up in support of the opportunity. @docsforclimate.bsky.social @gchalliance.bsky.social @psr.org @apha.org

Billions of dollars’ worth of contracts predicting oil would fall and the S&P 500 would rise were placed about 15 minutes before Trump announced a U-turn on Iran in a post on Truth Social. CFTC staff began to investigate...then were told to lay off. www.bloomberg.com/news/feature...

Will this year's record-shattering El Niño event be the strongest in a millennium? In a new piece over at The Climate Brink I review the paleoclimate literature from tree rings and corals and argue that may well turn out to be the case:

I recommend this podcast. It gives a good overview of the BAAJA permitting reform bill introduced by Senators Whitehouse, Heinrich, Lee and Capito. As someone who is not an environmental lawyer, I still have questions, but this gives some good food for thought.

Who wants to live to 100 anyway? A child born today might, theoretically, turn 100 on 8 October 2126. When the world will likely be between about 2.5°C and 3.5°C 'warmer'. With more and worse storms, floods, droughts, wildfires, heatwaves, crop failures, governance failures, chaos and wars. 🤔

incredible this will get little to no coverage

ICE Has Been Dumping Protester Photos Into a Palantir Database DHS agents not only tracked and intimidated people observing ICE activity in Maine, but stored information about them in a Palantir-built database, newly unsealed court filings say.

BAAJA is our best bet to lower people’s electricity costs and make sure data centers pay their fair share AND more.

This corruption must be investigated.

not that you should expect anything more than rank idiocy from this pair of racists, but the idea that whiteness means a "high trust" society of "social cohesion" is some of the stupidest shit i have ever heard. these people live in a fantasy land that you could dispel by simply opening a book.

*sigh* looks like the Republican midterm strategy is to go all in on stirring up trans fears. Please do not fall for that tired trick. They just want to make you mad/afraid/stir up your moral outrage. If you see conservatives falling for this, remind them they are being manipulated.
