Looking for some "#justice porn"? We can use #drones + doorbell cameras + #artificialintelligence to create a much safer and more pleasant #society: https://t.co/8D2TpL4igV

We are facing a #catastrophe in the #Arctic that will hit #humanity like a freight train. #globalwarming will skyrocket along with multiple side effects: https://t.co/YQJPzZMkVQ

How can we make life better for all #Americans? How can we improve the #economy so that everyone benefits? How can we enlarge the #middleclass in the #UnitedStates? Why not have our #society working to make life better for all of its #citizens? https://t.co/F74ZCZTRs4

This is the worst possible time for #climatechange optimism: https://t.co/xaaEeIAbws

[Marshall Brain @marshallbrain]

Is this a time for #optimism or #pessimism? Should we look forward to #2024 with #hope or #dread? There is so much potential for #disaster in 2024. Therefore, let's play #Doomsday #Bingo in 2024 and we can track how #bad things get: https://t.co/xbpLAOzemn

I did a #TEDx talk at #TEDxNCState - it discusses #climatechange and #globalwarming and then talks about how #ncstate could make a real contribution to solving the #climatecrisis - https://t.co/DzLUlSsCX6

Just how bad is #climateChange? It is far worse than most #people think #today. This article describes how bad it has gotten on 13 fronts, on its way to #collapse - https://t.co/scC8rV2bbx

[Marshall Brain @marshallbrain]

How will #climatechange cause the #collapse of #civilization? It could be via #food shortages and #famine, via #floods, via #hurricanes, via #seaLevel rise, etc. We are basically waiting for #disaster to happen. https://t.co/KXapajp0b2

Does it really cost $233,000 per year to live a #MiddleClass lifestyle in #America today? Bankrate surveyed 2,500 #Americans and this is the number they arrived at. But when we do an #analysis of real #costs today, it turns out $233K is not enough! https://t.co/xILEJQS9uA

The heat this summer is coming at us in so many different places. And the summer is just just getting started in the Northern Hemisphere. How bad will things get over the next two months? https://t.co/2rIV4vbtvf

There is the huge #Helion announcement this week, where #microsoft hopes to have #fusion power online in 5 years. And 4 other companies are all aiming for the same thing - Cheap, clean and abundant fusion power in this decade to help solve #climatechange. https://t.co/E82mv1rfpW

#humans and #earth stand on the brink of an eight-way #climatechange #catastrophe of epic proportions. Will humanity take the steps necessary to avert #disaster? https://t.co/2F98uNJ4Ld

When it comes to #climatechange and the #earth #climate, the #permafrost may hold the key to the #future of #humanity and the #ecosystem - https://t.co/PMQVX87HfX

Are you #obese? Have you tried #dieting and #fitness and #exercise but nothing works? New drugs like #mounjaro, #ozempic and #wegovy provide #hope for the end of #obesity. https://t.co/kAnn59yKUT

[Marshall Brain @marshallbrain]

With #climatechange accelerating and #fossilfuel profits at an all time high, #humanity has a choice to make: Do we destroy planet #Earth or do we ban fossil fuels? A fossil fuel ban is the only way to save our #ecosystem https://t.co/BX3QDkaLnP

What if #ncsu made itself perfectly green? What if #ncstate made itself a shining example of what the world needs to do to combat #climatechange and #globalwarming? In my TEDxNCState talk last week I discussed this proposal: https://t.co/KZW4K4nMdp

When #climatechange and rising sea levels flood out #miami and other coastal cities, what happens to the #unitedstates economy? Trillions of dollars lost, millions of #refugees , and it could happen in just a few years: https://t.co/Zru9ImS3ut

First there was ChatGPT. Then there was #bing. Then #google announced #bard and #sparrow and med-PaLM and Claude. #baidu announced Ernie Bot. #facebook announced Galactica. #chatgpt has caused an explosion of AI, and it is just the beginning: https://t.co/34fRrMUImg

Into the panoply of adages like Murphy's Law, Occam's Razor and the Peter Principle, I am introducing Brain's Law, especially appropriate in #doomsday, #collapse, #climatechange and #globalwarming situations: https://t.co/TKj7R0JGNg
