Architects for climate action now.

[Barnabas Calder @BarnabasCalder]

This is a really cheering, lovely bit of research. An applied example of technologically enhanced use of pre-fossil-fuel techniques and materials.

Reviewing buildings for a #ClimateEmergency world: Archi media isn't doing it, so maybe we should? What are some criteria we should include?

@LHSyd It's not too late.

Bitcoin makes the planet overheat irreversibly, pass it on

[XRarchitects @XRarchitects]

@ClimateHuman @XRHornsbyShire Bitcoin also extends the system that is destroying our planet. It merely enables the redistribution of wealth to another capitalist class to continue socially unjust, extractive and polluting production.

[XRarchitects @XRarchitects]

Architects, we need to talk about how and what we publish.
Concrete and glass towers are not compatible with the zero carbon pathway we need to be on by now and should not be celebrated as achievements.
Let's go.

We can’t begin to imagine a better future if we don’t divest from a bad present.

Architects. Lift your game. Demolition is not Climate Action.

Day 4 Hunger #StrikeforClimate @XRWAGrandparent Time to call out the biggest #ClimateArsonist @Chevron and demand that @MarkMcGowanMP #ActNow to support real action on the #ClimateEmergency @abcperth @9NewsPerth @7NewsPerth

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

Stop saying the climate crisis is "a factor" in the catastrophic heat and fires we're experiencing and start saying it's the goddamn cause

The #ClimateEmergency is demanding a response from architecture and our profession:
Do we continue to serve capitalism (whether fuelled by renewables or fossil fuel) or do we participate in creating social change for a just transition?

[Extinction Rebellion Western Australia⌛️ @XRebellionWA]

#ExtinctionRebellion’s actions against #newscorp is an attack on corporate media that continues to fuel the #ClimateEmergency

Here is how it works:

Wtaf?!

[XRarchitects @XRarchitects]

The climate emergency gives us carte blanche to reinvent architecture.
Style, conventions, codes and regulations are now secondary to the demands placed upon architecture by this crisis.

[XRarchitects @XRarchitects]

This is why XRs first demand - #TellTheRruth - Declare a #ClimateEmergency - is so important!

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

I will never have a TEDx talk because what I have to say is too vulgar and threatening to the status quo. Which is that climate and ecosystems are fucking breaking irreversibly and it's because corporations and billionaires are fucking in charge. Thanks for coming blah blah blah

Cement is responsible for 8% of the world's CO₂ emissions

If the cement industry were a country, it would be the third largest emitter in the world

It contributes more CO₂ than aviation fuel 2.5% & is not far behind the global agriculture business 12% https://t.co/M2LUoZPEIk
