Great article on how the coronavirus pandemic can reduce global emissions for 2020. #lesson11 https://t.co/FU1YlaamNV

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

The concept of Energy Balance makes it so much easier to understand why the earth is heating as a result of greenhouse gas emissions absorbing infrared radiation. #lesson11

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

Lesson 11 enlightened me on the severity of climate change as well as the temperature reconstruction methods. Never knew that tree rings, coral, river sediments, and ice cores could be used to map climate change. #lesson11

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

While a 2˚C scenario would be ideal for the planet, major changes would need to be taken by major energy and industrials companies at the expense of financial performance. #lesson12

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

With increasing climate change comes increasing possibilities for extreme events to put developing countries at severe risk. #lesson11

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

Not only do pipelines offer more risk of large-scale spills but they also are displacing indigenous populations as well as destroying local ecosystems. #lesson10

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

Such a simple yet powerful answer😂 #lesson10

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

Lesson 10 really made me realize how harmful carbon monoxide is to not only our planet but to our health from frequent and long-lasting exposure. #lesson10

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

Not a surprise to see that the transportation sector accounts for 57% of air pollution. I would love to see EV's becoming a staple in the transportation industry for the sake of our planet. #lesson10

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

@MerozYisroel In my sustainable investments class, it was said that gas-powered vehicles will incur the same costs as electric vehicles by 2030. So it would be fair to assume that by 2025, the amount of EV's on the road will increase drastically.

@amir_barka Yikes. And no long-term place to store it.

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

@MPhys273 What's even crazier is the rate it's increasing at

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

@MatniAnthony If the sky is the limit... but considering how affordable electric cars are going to be in the future, I would definitely love a Tesla as a daily driver. #lesson10

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

@MudirNatasha Wow, the projections in this article are frightening. #lesson12

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

@ktotarella25 Especially now that we have the technology to forecast how much harm it is going to cause our planet in the coming decades. #lesson11

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

While some homeowners may resort to cheaper alternatives to insulate their homes, it will definitely end up costing them more in energy usage in the long-run. #lesson9

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

Looking for Energy Star certified appliances can create long-term value for you in terms of their reliability, performance, and ability to immediately reduce energy costs. #lesson9

[jforianPHYS @JforianP]

The last lecture was really informative on the little things we can do to converse energy through our appliances, even if they aren't Energy Star rated. #lesson9

@Salomec41241661 @beto10110 #4 is one I definitely never gave too much consideration. Thanks for sharing! #lesson9
