My cup overflows with anger toward these lying, deceiving, murderous, oil and gas companies. So this morning, I did something I've never done before in hopes the people coming home from their long weekends in Tofino and Ucluelet get the message.
To (aspire to) be a climate activist is to face a tsunami of
nonsense. Broadcast news is the fluff about consumer confidence and oil investment with no recognition of the urgency of #ClimateAction.
This alienates, atomises and distorts activism; we rarely know its origin. It's twin curses of Cassandra: seeing the harm and being unable to engage others. Saying the Emperor has no clothes is to be decried as an 'eco-zealot' - as if zeal would be a failing. #ScientistsWarning#ClimateDiary
The Economic Damage due to climate change is much worse than thought!!!
The economic damage wrought by climate change is six times worse than previously thought, with global heating set to shrink wealth at a rate consistent with the level of financial losses of a continuing permanent war.
“It’s absurd for ODOT to claim that their proposed $1.9 billion 10-lane highway is in compliance with the city’s existing plans for #climateAction, sustainable #transportation investment or neighborhood development. We filed this lawsuit because state law requires ODOT to follow the city’s #cleanAir and climate goals. ODOT shouldn’t be allowed to advance a project that brazenly violates the city’s adopted plans.” -- #NoMoreFreeways#ODOTGTFOpdx#Portland
No, no. Of course I didn't change the churches stance on contraception. I'm just joining in with the Climate Debate to gain popularity. We still want our worshippers actively oppressing women, spreading deadly, sexually-transmitted diseases, and adding to population growth which is a major cause of climate change.
What's old is new again! World’s first MODERN wooden wind turbine blades (contrast with windmills of the past) have been installed in Germany by Voodin Blade Technology to make #wind power even more renewable! https://t.co/QttGEG2xZ6#ClimateAction h/t @cision
@YorksBylines@anuckols When viewing such impacts of #climatechange I am convinced we can't reduce CO2 fast enough. Therefore I wrote a blog on how we should start a path toward stratospheric aerosol injection (SAI) yesterday.
SAI can cool the earth in 2 years and keep temperature steady even if CO2 keeps rising.
Please read the blog before you disagree
And sorry, its very long and thorough
President Joe Biden's administration has a goal of a carbon-free power sector by 2035, in order to fight climate change. To meet that target, the country needs to more than double regional transmission capacity and expand interregional transmission capacity more than fivefold.
The FERC's rule on regional transmission planning and cost allocation has been under development for nearly two years.
from OLCV's Mobilizing #ClimateAction Team: #Portland Clean Energy Fund (PCEF) "has invested millions in our communities and critical climate programs in our city. Now it’s under threat from certain politicians who want to overturn the will of the voters and divert money to projects unrelated to climate.

Trump is a scab who only cares about HIS bottom line: to regain power regardless of what befalls the health of Americans or the planet. He's actively taking bribes from Big Oil to win so he can undo all of Biden's historic #DemCast#ClimateAction. #BidenHarris4More#VoteForClimate
When a pair of women in their 80’s, a former biology teacher and vicar are taking it upon themselves to point out that prized ancient artefacts won’t count for $hit when you’ve destroyed life as we know it on this planet…then maybe, just maybe politicians should wake up and take real #ClimateAction now. We can’t wait any longer.
“ the world's oceans have broken temperature records every single day over the past year - BBC analysis finds “
“ ~47 days smashed the record for that day of the year by at least 0.3C (BBC analysis of Copernicus data).
Never before in the satellite era had the margin of record been this big “
" almost a month ahead in the sea surface temperature in the Atlantic “
This summer there will be four courses 😯:
Computational Neuroscience, NeuroAI, Deep Learning, and Computational Tools for Climate.
Mentors will hold a one-hour meeting every week with a small cohort of students, where they will discuss with them and help them progress in their journey in industry and academia.
