Spot on David. Without two centuries of fossil fuels forcing warming into our biosphere, the planet would be ever so slowly shifting to a slight cooling phase. And Exxon and Chevron knew they were the cause of #climate warming many decades ago. #climatechangeisreal #ActOnClimate

Big Anniversary! 40 years ago, I rode my bicycle out of Okoboji Iowa and began a year-long 11,000-mile journey biking the backroads of #America. Looking for some Americana on our 250th? Pls check out my story on Substack in the comments. Pls ck out the #adventure #Film #Photography #Travel

No problem with high petrol prices if you electrify mobility with clean energy. Be like #Norway #NoMoreWar #EndOil #CleanEnergy

Happy #scape Day from the Santa Rita Mountains south of Tucson, #Arizona Beautiful #photography here and great recreation. #EastCoastKin

And fired the entire National Science Board of the United States of America over the weekend. #WarOnScience

Didn't Melania's husband mock the Pope, post blasphemous content, threaten genocide, ridicule and threaten the press, and engage in an illegal, unwinnable war with Iran -- all of that in the past month? Very offensive, divisive, and hateful.

Is this for real? If we can electrify large equipment like this in China, it is game over for #fossilfuels

China tackles its rural labor crisis with the Honghu T70, an autonomous electric tractor that operates for 6 hours with remarkable precision. A game-changer for agriculture.

Bravo USA. 🇺🇸 Keep moving clean energy forward. Make the Strait of Hormuz irrelevant

In a first last month, renewables supplied more power to the U.S. than natural gas, a milestone in the shift to clean energy.

With #Arctic sea ice tracking at record lows going into the summer melt season it’s a good reminder, I witnessed and documented the first great sea ice loss and tipping point 19 yrs ago #sailing the #NorthwestPassage #ProtectTheArctic #Photography #ClimateChangeIsReal

It’s times like these I’d rather be #sailing. Someplace cold and exciting. Anyone else?

We must Protect the #Ocean Deep sea mining is horrific.

Mongabay@mongabay.com · 6mo ago

The U.S. Bureau of Ocean Energy Management is moving toward leasing 45.7 million hectares off Alaska for seabed mining. The plan has sparked cultural and environmental concerns, as deep-sea mining faces global scrutiny over weak regulations and ecological risks.

From paddling Minnesota’s pristine Boundary Waters to disrupting the migratory patterns of 200,000 Porcupine Caribou in our Arctic Refuge, it’s wilderness protection, public lands and recreation vs Big Oil and extraction. Pick a side. The battle is on. #ProtectPublicLands and #Wilderness #Arctic

Melissa has now gone through 2 rapid intensifications with winds at 185 mph (gusting 215+) n a low pressure reading of 992 mb, making this the 3rd strongest hurricane recorded in the Atlantic Ocean system. Storm surge 9-13 feet w heavy rain n high tide conditions. Worst case scenario for Jamaica.

Less #Seaice in the Arctic means more shipping in the Northern Sea Route, which Putin controls. Until the USA understands climate disruption, we are at a strategic disadvantage.

Thx Zack. Multi-year thick sea ice is near extinction in the Arctic. Sea ice extent is like the skin of an onion, lots of thin first-year ice. The #NorthwestPassage was again open this season.

Zack Labe@zacklabe.com · 11mo ago

Average sea ice thickness across the #Arctic Ocean dropped to a record low for the month of August. Current conditions show higher extent, but very thin ice to end the summer warm season. More at zacklabe.com/arctic-sea-i.... Data simulated by PIOMAS.

Of course Joe Rogan is an ignorant climate denier.

Forbes@forbes.com · 11mo ago

Joe Rogan is spreading climate misinformation on one of the country’s most popular podcasts, scientists say—and he’s not the only one.

Climate science is in danger.

Zack Labe@zacklabe.com · 11mo ago

A tremendous amount of science and societal progress is going out the window fast, *AI included.* Another daily tragedy. ➡️ We need you to spread the word outside of our science bubble. "NSF terminates funding for its main meteorology focused AI institute" open.substack.com/pub/balanced...

Been there. Seen it. Groundtruthed the science multiple times. We’re losing sea ice quickly in the North.

Zack Labe@zacklabe.com · 11mo ago

August 2025 #Arctic sea ice extent was the 7th lowest on record for the month... This was 1,790,000 km² below the 1981-2010 average. August ice extent is decreasing at about 9.79% per decade. Data: nsidc.org/data/seaice_...

16 years ago, I was the photographer and ice sailing expert on Ocean Watch sailing through the #NorthwestPassage from west to east. I shot this image near Bellot Strait as we were putting the passage behind us. Now a new One Ocean #sailing voyage is retracing our route to document enviro change.

Motherfucking wind farms…

Hey BlueSky friends, sorry about my absence from the platform for a while. Long story, but I’m back. We are in some real trouble in regards to the #climatecrisis luckily my friends @climatechris.bsky.social and @michaelemann.bsky.social are all over it.

Trump and his science-denying thugs are wiping climate change data from the system. They are willing to burn 🔥 the USA and civilization to the ground. The #climatecrisis is real and life threatening. This shit is real folks and the fossil fuel industry doesn’t want you to have the data anymore.

The US Global Change Research Program's website, including all its sub-domains that host the National Climate Assessments and related reports, is now offline. The 1990 Global Change Research Act (see below) mandates its research findings be available to all federal agencies & departments.

I’m back from #sailing the Pacific. “Along with ocean currents circulating warm and cold water, this is our natural heating, and air conditioning system, which provides the stability for all life to exist on Planet Earth. Man-made #climatechange is disrupting these natural systems…” #Photography

We sailed 2900 miles on Polar Sun and finally crossed the Evans made it into Hiva Oa in the French Marquesas Islands. Spectacular! #Travel #Sailing #Oceans #Adventure #Photography

Sailing across the Pacific Ocean and had a very beautiful #Seascape last evening.
