@GRT_ROW why’d you build a LRT that doesn’t work in the winter. I’m a huge believer in public transit, but only reliable and frequent transit, and this is neither. my half hour commute on one train turned into 2 trains, a shuttle and an extra hour. be better please.

Japanese scientists find microplastics are present in clouds

Researchers in Japan have confirmed that microplastics are present in clouds, where they are likely affecting the climate in ways that are not yet fully understood.

The team identified nine different types of polymers and one type of rubber in the airborne microplastics, which ranged in size from 7.1 to 94.6 micrometres.

Each litre (0.26 gallon) of cloud water tested contained between 6.7 to 13.9 pieces of the plastics.

When microplastics reach the upper atmosphere and are exposed to ultraviolet radiation from sunlight, they degrade, contributing to greenhouse gasses, Okochi said.

I'm excited to publish my first article in @the_ecologist w @llaveropasquina based on my research at @EnvJustice about the consequences indigenous people suffer from voluntary carbon markets, which oil giants & high emitting industries use for #greenwashing their image.

South America is living one of the extreme events the world has ever seen
Unbelievable temperatures up to 38.9C in the Chilean Andine areas in mid winter ! Much more than what Southern Europe just had in mid summer at the same elevation: This event is rewriting all climatic books

🧵Since it is becoming hard to track, here is a thread of the simply astounding weather records planet Earth has started shattering in recent weeks:

2. Therefore, there is nothing which can be made to combat climate change.
The act of making it worsens climate change.
There is never a payback. Once emitted, the gases stay out. Until some ecosystem service removes them.
Period.
Ecosystem repair is the only productive work.
