What the f*ck @Google!

No one ever asked you to turn keyword search into a 10-30X energy hoarding, AI shitshow.

(Link cited by AI is dead, making it impossible to validate the accuracy of this energy intensive excretion)

Agree.
The Invisible Doctrine: The Secret History of Neoliberalism (by @GeorgeMonbiot & @PeterHutchMusic) is a real page-turner, but for a reflective mind is also a disturbing read.
We've too easily become party to our own demise.
My short review of the book is attached.

The Democratic Party needs to FIGHT against Trump, Musk and the oligarchs!

Chuck Schumer WHIMPED OUT and capitulated to the Trump/Musk forces.

Call for NEW LEADERSHIP. — a Senator with Rep Al Green's energy!

@CO2_earth @NOAA Plots of the year-end  #CO2 value in context with past values & an RCP 8.5-like BAU:
Heading to 500 ppm by 2045.

Exasperation with the lack of progress, seen in these plots, is veiled in humor in the subtitle of the Emissions Gap Report 2024 :
“No more hot air - please!"

@LeonSimons8 @PCarterClimate Also, CO2 is increasing at/above RCP8.5 scenario rate

[Dan Dewey @DeweyRants]

Heading to 500 ppm:
The yearly cycle hides the underlying trend.
When ‘deseasoned’ it shows a steepening kink in early 2023.
Yearly increases are now around 3.5 ppm/yr, compared to 2.7 when Greta started her school strikes.
Will be 500 ppm in 2045, without _real_ reductions.

Overconsumption is killing the planet.

Before you buy something you don't need, ask if you really need it.

Sharing, repairing and second-hand must become the new normal.

[Prof Julia Steinberger @JKSteinberger]

Instead, we should be analysing and strategising how to build power and fight back against this inaction, not be satisfied at being nihilistic, smug, righteous commentators of the apocalypse, satisfied with being on the right side of topics, and continually losing.

3 days ago, the #COP29Azerbaijan Presidency @COP29_AZ gathered the lead negotiators behind closed doors, and we got our hands on their speech.

🤷7 pages long
❌0 mentions of renewables
❌0 mentions of fossil fuels
❌0 mentions of energy (transition)

This is unacceptable from leaders of climate negotiations.

[Dan Dewey @DeweyRants]

@RebeccaSolnit I sincerely don’t know if you are being sarcastic or not?
It could be seen as a good thing…

On the other hand, we already know the solutions needed…
So it would make more sense to hire a Facility Engineer, or Divestment Coordinator, or a Climate Anxiety Therapist, or …
