Die globale Erhitzung hat sich beschleunigt. Das zeigt vor allem, dass der Klimaschutz nicht ausreichend war. Menschen für dumm verkaufen, leugnen bringt nichts. Sollte auch der allerletzte nach dieser historischen #Hitzewelle kapiert haben. Lesen!👇👇👇👇 publications.pik-potsdam.de/rest/items/i...

Also, bei strengem Frost schützt man sich, aber bei Hitze kann es gar nicht genug sein? Hä? 👇 „Ab einer Körpertemperatur von ca. 42 °C beginnen lebenswichtige Proteine im Körper zu denaturieren, was ohne sofortige medizinische Hilfe tödlich endet.“

Brown Coal Briquettes (GDR, 1961). "REKORD" briquettes supplied over 70 percent of East Germany's total energy needs. Brown coal is the most carbon-intensive fossil fuel. Burning it releases more CO₂ per unit of energy than any other energy source. #chickenage #biodiversity #science

Domestic Cat (Felis catus) Loved as a pet, responsible for the decline of numerous bird and small mammal populations. In the US alone, free-ranging cats kill between 1.3 and 4.0 billion birds each year. Unlike the raccoon, rarely described as invasive. #chickenage #biodiversity #science

Oak Processionary Moth (Thaumetopoea processionea) A native species that became a public menace. Toxic hairs remain active for up to five years. Once a marginal forest insect, it has thrived with climate warming and monoculture plantations. #chickenage #biodiversity #science

Arrow Stork (Ciconia ciconia). Found in 1822 with an African spear in its neck, first evidence of long-distance bird migration. Struck in Africa, shot in Germany, kept for study. Even scientific icons are products of violence. Zoologische Sammlung Rostock. #chickenage #biodiversity #science

ABI PRISM 3700 DNA Analyzer (Applied Biosystems, 1998). A pivotal machine in the sequencing of the human genome. Could do in a day what many DNA labs produced in a year. A machine from the moment when the human species became readable to itself. #chickenage #biodiversity #science #evolution

Sicilia Express Lemon (Natur der Dinge, Museum für Naturkunde, Berlin). In the 1950s, Dresden engineer Gustav Paul Hilbrandt developed the lemon-shaped plastic bottle. A natural form reproduced to contain a processed version of itself. #chickenage #biodiversity #evolution

The Oldowan Chopper. One of the earliest human-made tools, 2.6 million years old. By striking flakes from a core, early humans created sharp edges for cutting meat and processing plants. The beginning of a long history of human transformation of the planet. #chickenage #biodiversity #evolution

Tiger of Sabrodt (Canis lupus). The last free-living wolf in Germany, shot in 1904. Absent so long that locals assumed it was an escaped circus tiger. Persecuted since the Middle Ages, the species was considered extinct before returning almost 100 years later. #chickenage #biodiversity #evolution

The world's oldest lawnmower (Budding, early 1830s). The world's oldest lawnmower (Budding, early 1830s). A lawn once signalled abundance: land kept as grass instead of growing food. His mower turned an aristocratic status symbol into a mass ideal. #chickenage #biodiversity #domestication

Domestic chicken (Gallus gallus domesticus) About every 1.5 years, we slaughter more chickens than humans have ever lived on this planet. Its discarded bones will persist in landfills as a fossil signature of the Anthropocene. #chickenage #biodiversity #science

Chicken Age - a photographic archaeology of the Anthropocene. Animals, plants, objects and places as artefacts of human intervention in nature. From a 2.6 million year old stone tool to 80 billion chickens killed per year. Check out the website: chickenage.com #chickenage #science #biodiversity
