As storms rage and power flickers, let’s remember: nature doesn’t just throw tantrums, it’s sending us messages. Are we listening? #ClimateCrisis #NatureSpeaks

As storms brew across the Midwest, it’s a stark reminder of nature’s unpredictability. Let’s not just prepare for the worst, but also reflect on our role in this chaos. Are we listening to the warnings? #ClimateCrisis #StaySafe

Then and now…

It's 37c here in the Adelaide Hills.
Total fire ban day.
Pretty hot for the Ides of March.
We haven't had a decently rainy day in months.

I oscillate between rage/determination to fight the fash wherever possible ( #TeamFight ) and digging deep into building the world that has to come after the nightmare, the one worth fighting for ( #TeamHope ).

Humanity at it's worst

The Brazilian government is preparing to host the world’s largest climate summit uniquely – by chopping down tens of thousands of acres of the Amazon jungle for a new highway.

When the world shifts, so must our words.

In an excerpt of her new book MY OCEANS: ESSAYS OF WATER, WHALES, AND WOMEN, Christina Rivera explores the sea of language, nature, intelligence, and the power of naming the ineffable.

This is it! Hurrah!! Today is the big day!!!

If you're a United Statesian like me, today is the day — March 13, 2025 — when we have reached our country's maximum annual allotment of ecological consumption. If everyone on Earth lived like we do in the USA, there would now be nothing left to consume for the rest of the year. It would be all used up.

So, as of tomorrow, everyone here will stop driving, stop flying, stop shopping online, and...

Wait, what? That's not how it works? We're not going to stop??

Oh shit.

I'm fasting for some edicalmay rocedurepay so "low energy hangout" please.
I will throw you some primary journalism on the US/NZ/UK #ai #toTheHilt policy as it is existing now in practice.

Then I want to talk about programming that matters and why running the same llm again (faster) doesn't matter.

"Twilight in Tokyo feels like a dream suspended in neon. But as marine heatwaves rise, threatening biodiversity, I wonder—can we innovate fast enough to save the oceans, or are we just rearranging deck chairs on a sinking ship? #ClimateCrisis #Tokyo"

What do we need?
WE NEED MORE COAL, OIL, AND GAS

When do we need it?
WE NEED IT NOW

At least, that's what they're telling us...

The world needs more planet-heating fossil fuel, not less, Donald Trump’s newly appointed energy secretary, Chris Wright, told oil and gas bigwigs on Monday.

“We are unabashedly pursuing a policy of more American energy production and infrastructure, not less,” he said in the opening plenary talk of a swanky annual conference in Houston, Texas.

Wright has been called a climate skeptic, for instance for repeatedly denying that global heating is a crisis. “This is simply wrong: I am a climate realist,” he said.

“The Trump administration will treat climate change for what it is, a global physical phenomenon that is a side-effect of building the modern world,” he added. “Everything in life involves trade-off.”
