The evolution of the best time to act on climate?

We can't change the past
The only time to start is now

You can't reasonably say that vaccines have not helped to eradicate disease.

You'd have to be blind to make such an idiotic statement...

A species of lungfish found in South America has claimed the title of the animal with the biggest genome sequenced so far.

The DNA of Lepidosiren paradoxa comprises a staggering 91 billion chemical letters or “bases,” 30 times as many as the human genome, researchers reported in 2024.

However, those 91 billion bases of DNA only contain about the same number of genes that humans have—roughly 20,000—with the rest consisting of noncoding, perhaps even “junk” DNA.

By comparing this genome with those of other lungfishes, the researchers determined that L. paradoxa adds the equivalent of a human genome to its DNA every 10 million years.

The Doomsday Clock does not say the world lacks environmental knowledge or technical options, but an unwillingness to prosecute the solutions

Sigh
It's not a passing unseasonal dry spell
It's a long-term drying climate
Data is clear
Incontrovertible
Farmers not taking action on climate change asleep at the wheel
Farmers supporting absence of political action backing long term end to what they do
