Poking actual grey matter for 25 yrs.

Occasionally @twitter for #STEM and #research topics.

0/6 A thread about science & society in view of some prominent global trends.

Plus a broad overview at the direction this account would take & the topics that will be covered.

Let's plan to cut more trees and pour more concrete all over the place, under the guise of development.

“We've arranged a society based on science and technology, in which nobody understands anything about science and technology. And this combustible mixture of ignorance and power, sooner or later, is going to blow up in our faces.”

— Carl Sagan

“It took a million years of unprecedented volcanic activity during the Permian to poison the ocean. We have begun to do so again in less than two hundred. By burning fossil fuels, we are releasing carbon dioxide captured by prehistoric plants over millions of years in a few decades.”

— Sir David Attenborough

This is the kind of graph future documentaries pause on before saying, ‘By then, the warning signs were obvious.

@MaryBowdenMD @DawnsMission Dr¹ Bowden, please get your eyes checked.

Dr² Michael, you've got an excellent tag-team of grifting Blue Ticks.

Unfortunately enough, nothing much can be done about your brains ATP.

¹ Do you still have a license to practice?
² Isn't your nose is a bit too long?

Air conditioning may offer relief, but it is not ecological wisdom. A serious climate response would mean shaded cities, trees, ventilation, better housing and less wasteful energy use — not endless machines cooling private spaces while the planet burns.

A few thoughts to think about💚💙❤️🍀

@DipshikhaGhosh This country is being run by a rabble of incompetent, semi-illiterate smooth-brains.

Elected & supported by compatriots who have similar intellectual levels, value-structures & moral standards.

Plus the most insidious part, and the main big win for the narrative creators, is that the would-be-revolutionaries voluntarily embrace learned helplessness.

[Entropic Equilibrium @EntropicEq]

@MrMatthewTodd 3/4

So our supposed/expected revolutionaries, who don't have much time & mental bandwidth to begin with, end up co-opting the denial based and/or minimising narratives about the broader subject of climate-change, its current localised impacts, and the future trajectory.

@RemaNagarajan If possible, could you look into & write an article about how the FSSAI Act/Law itself was watered down/ inherently set-up for failure.

e.g. IIRC every district was supposed to have an FSSAI office with proper staff & inspectors; state capitals were supposed to have labs...
