Hey Londoners: stay off Oxford Street today or prepare to cover your face. There is live facial recognition on the street today. #SurveillanceState

@aral @mojala I don't think he glosses over the fact that we have passed tipping points. The important thing is he is getting across the point that we must act quickly and decisively and not give in to doom. It's a message very well pitched to a very general White, Western 'we'.

I haven't posted a TED talk in years, but this one is utterly necessary. A dire warning, and a small chance of hope. "The Tipping Points of Climate Change--and Where We Stand" by the incredible Johan Rockström https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vl6VhCAeEfQ&ab_channel=TED
