Recovering academic, seeking sustainability: @HUCEnvironment @WoodwellClimate former science & policy director, chief climate scientist @UCSUSA

[ExxonKnews @Exxon_Knew]

After the hearing, @PeterFrumhoff, former chief climate scientist at @UCSUSA, told ExxonKnews that the hacker's sentencing is hopefully “a stepping stone, not a final moment” of accountability for the attack against key players in the #ExxonKnew movement. https://t.co/7VLdJmPybc

“I was the target, but the public at large was the intended victim,” said Peter Frumhoff, former director of science and policy and chief scientist at UCS in Cambridge, Massachusetts.

@GlobalEcoGuy Glad to see we're finding common ground.

[Peter Frumhoff @PeterFrumhoff]

Closing the door to #solargeoengineering research means flying blind when someone decides to deploy - & leaving research to be funded by untethered private capital. What's needed is transparent, collaborative publicly funded research, w/in a primary commitment to mitigation.

The European Commission takes a stand on #geoengineering
- risks, impacts & unintended consequences poorly understood
- new risks to people & ecosystems, could increase power imbalances
- support for international efforts for an assessment & discussions on a governance framework

Saddened to learn of Roger Payne's passing. I had the joy of researching humpback song with Roger in the early 1980s. He was as much an artist & musician as he was a scientist - passionate & intuitive. We hear the world differently because of him.

[Carl Safina @carlsafina]

The great Roger Payne has passed. I was able to speak with him and bid farewell. Five days prior, when he knew his end was coming, he published this recollection to help us find our way forward. https://t.co/4ysaztidVC

I think this is a good way to evaluate a company’s claims to be on board vis a vis the climate: “At a minimum, the company must have no new commitments to initiate new fossil fuel exploration, production or refining.” https://t.co/pC85bgny2J

"What we need is an international conversation. Solar geoengineering is a desperate measure and one that we should make every effort to avoid." My comments on @cbssaturday

[CBS Saturday Morning @cbssaturday]

Scientists are urging drastic cuts to our fossil fuel use, saying we're not on pace to avoid the worst impacts of climate change. As a result, some of them now support controversial technologies that could blunt the Earth's rising temperatures, broadly known as geoengineering.
