I know many experts say carbon offsets do nothing for climate
Oh, that’s the whole post.

🙄 No miracle particle holds the key to solving climate change.
We've got to do a bunch of things we already know how to do, including switching to renewables, increasing energy efficiency, and stopping bullshit emissions of greenhouse gases.
How to imagine why Twitter is losing money.
It’s hilarious that climate deniers’ “evidence” that there’s no sea-level rise is that rich people are buying beachfront property. I’ve warned those people, and their reply is always “we’ll just walk away when it’s bad.” That’s the thing about being rich.
We’re not going to reach our climate targets if we keep doing this.
Musk: "Hiroshima and Nagasaki were bombed, but now they're full cities again."
Trump: "That's great. That's great."
Musk: "Yeah so it's not as scary as people think."

For the first time in over 400 years, at least two baby beavers have been born in west London, eight months after their reintroduction.
Who wants to go find some 🦫?
If you only read one thing today, let it be this: “One of the greatest moral tests we’ll face over the next century will be whether we can heed [the voices that tell us that our treatment of animals is a stain on the human conscience] and decouple human prosperity from tyranny over animals.”

It’s wild that in 2024, assault weapons like the AR-15–style rifles are legal but we’re banning books.
CEO: "Forgive me, Father, for I have sinned. My company emitted one million tonnes of CO₂ and contributed to climate change."
Priest: "Say three Hail Marys and pay $250 to plant 1000 trees."
CEO: "Thank you, Father."
Climate deniers, including those in the US Congress, are not people with a different opinion; they are liars.

Unfortunately, the drug that prevents HIV infection, lenacapavir, is currently unaffordable at $42,250 for the first year. If it were sold by Gilead for $40 per year, it would still yield them a 30% profit. But I guess that’s not how capitalism works.
I will never forgive Elon Musk for making Twitter so terrible that people think LinkedIn is acceptable to use.
Many people think we need to kill fish to get omega−3 fatty acids (sometimes called "fish oil"), but fish simply accumulate them by eating marine algae, so it's possible to get omega−3 fatty acids directly from algae.
Lol. The work that discovered “dark oxygen” was funded by The Metals Company and now they’re trying to discredit it, going as far as saying it couldn’t get published in other journals.
Dude, it was published in Nature Geoscience, a pretty freaking prestigious journal!

Whether ocean alkalinity enhancement or any other marine CO₂ removal (CDR) methods work or not remains to be seen, but that’s why we do research.
Here’s a story in Icelandic about our research.

If the world welcomed refugees in boats the way we welcomed the Refugee Olympic Team in a boat…
Go to Iceland, they said. July is the nicest month there, they said.
No US President has ever given birth so why is this suddenly a problem?
TBH, this seems worse than having the road blocked by climate activists for a few minutes, much less talk about doing so on a Zoom call.
