Kinotipp: „Digger“ mit Tom Cruise. Und lasst Euch nicht von den Kritiken verunsichern; der Film ist großartig!

The US demonstrates better than anywhere else in the world that (a) cheap renewables won't always = fossil fuel decline and (b) deregulation is the same.

gonna stir some shit here: I think the spectre of "these projects are just held back by too many enviro laws" arose as it became clear that a huge drop in renewable energy costs was not going to translate into total and immediate global climate success; the big 'free market' theory of climate action

💯 %. If experience is anything to go by, we are very good at dragging our feet when the solutions require challenging the status quo. So yes, coming back down from overshoot in the time horizon required seems unlikely. Overshoot or not, the focus should be reducing emissions as fast as possible.

I spend my days helping people develop resilience plans to try and avoid permanent loss. The level of complacency caused by climate impacts not materialising immediately is scary. This El Niño is going to be a case study of people being caught completely off guard by its delayed impacts.

50,000 deaths attributed to heat waves across Europe this summer. The proposed EU budget is set to cut funding for climate action & nature restoration in a short term appeal to win over disaffected voters (esp in Germany). This is reactionary austerity. www.wwf.eu?21643841/Cou...

Informiert Euch über fossile Propaganda. Wit sind in der Klimakatastrophe, weil Klimaschutz verschleppt wurde. #FossilePropaganda ist tödlich

Many progressives would like to sense a fundamental change after sunday's elections. But the drive towards #fascism is programmed into #collapse: “People of privilege will always risk their complete destruction rather than surrender any material part of their advantage.”

"Klimadiskurs" wird immer postfaktischer: "Das 1,5 Grad Ziel ist vermutlich nicht mehr zu schaffen. Um die Erde wieder abzukühlen, führt kein Weg am Ausstieg fossiler Energien vorbei." 1. Das 1,5 Grad *LIMIT* wird mit Sicherheit überschritten. 2. Es gibt keinen "Ausstieg fossiler Energien".

Haben wir den Verstand verloren? Das fragt sich heute um 18:00 Harald Lesch bei der Eröffnung der Vorlesungsreihe "Lectures for Future" der Hochschule München und der @lmu.de. Die Teilnahme ist vor Ort und online möglich. Mehr Infos hier: hm.edu/hochschule_m...

Lula is better than Bolsonaro, but let's not kid ourselves: "Der Amazonas gibt mehr CO2 ab, als er aufnimmt. Dafür sind vor allem Abholzung und menschengemachte Brände verantwortlich. Hitze und Dürre verschärfen zudem die Situation." Social Democrats won't save the planet, they're just as bad.

The magnetic granite walls of the Sciora Group (3,274 m) from Soglio this evening! 🤩 This glacial valley was the scene of one of the largest disasters in Alpine history! 😱 3M m3 of rocks fell from Piz Cengalo, swept down the glacier and partially buried the village of Bondo in Aug. 2017! 🌊🔥

For every 1°C of warming, the atmosphere holds 7% more water. 9°F is 5°C. If the air coming off the ocean equilibrates with the warmer surface water, that's 35% more water vapor. Atmospheric Rivers are rightfully called Fire Hoses of precipitation. But now increase the cross section of the hose 😱

Yup. And it doesn't have to be "mention climate change OR El Nino." You can do both! I checked the climate rulebook. It's totally allowed. And 100% check out that @climatecentral.org report on El Nino. 🔽 www.climatecentral.org/climate-matt...

Basically you have all the fuel you need onsite when you build the fusion power plant. No pipelines, no tanker ships required. (Our fusion fuel is deuterium and tritium. D is extracted from water; T from the plant's blanket during operation.) #FusionEnergy

"You can provide enough fuel to power the entire fusion power plant for its entire lifetime … just sitting there from day one, which really changes how you think of energy security.” 1/4

Commonwealth Fusion Systems gets $85M to build better fusion-ready semiconductors

Does global warming kill? The science of climate change says it does. www.theguardian.com/environment/... And climate denial is an enabler of this global threat. #ClimateBrawl

Great read. 'curb' feels well underway, but 2 and 3 need plenty more work and focus. Lots of practical suggestions here

Here’s Climate Adam with his take on the movie: bsky.app/profile/clim...

The administration has also attempted to increase political control over the agency through a proposed NSF rule that would subject all NSF grants to review and approval by a politically appointed official, contradicting everything NSF’s current merit-review process stands for.
