In 100 years the world is going to be vegan because either we have collapsed the environment and the few hundred million surviving humans are not able to spare the land and resources to feed animals... Or we chose to be vegan because you know... All the facts support that 😂
I saw someone refer to homeschooling as “trickle down stupidity.” Immediate addition to my lexicon.
A dark moment in the history of emergency management. A turning away from the last twenty years of building a legitimate profession. A complete dismissal of all we no from experience and research about what kind of leadership is needed for effective emergency management. apnews.com/article/fema...

The Massive Climate Lie That Will Destroy Human Civilization
Thinking we have time left to address climate change, or that “Net Zero by 2050” will save us, is driving us toward full social collapse in ways that become more obvious with every new broken temperat...

A whole lot of dense smoke, from a whole lot of big fires, has spread across the Western 2/3 of the contiguous United States this evening. This has already been an extraordinary fire season in the Pacific Northwest & portions of the Great Basin/Rockies--and it continues.
Late capitalism is just billionaires randomly smashing everything to bits. Everything & everyone is just another toy in the playpen.
Deleted and reposted this because I realized the wording in my original social post (not the video/article thank god!!) was misleading — more than 1300 federal gov officials met with oil and gas lobbyists during Carney’s first year as PM. I had said “Carney’s government” met with them.
As Canada burns, floods, and deals with other impacts of the climate crisis, I keep asking: WHY is Carney doubling down on fossil fuels?? Well, @environmentaldefence.ca just gave us a HUGE clue: the federal government met with fossil fuel lobbyists more than 1300 times in Carney’s first year as PM.
1856: Eunice Foote shows CO2 emissions cause global warming. 1954: Oil industry’s own research proves they’re cooking the planet. 2022: Explicit fossil fuel subsidies reach $1.5 TRILLION. 2026: The world burns as Big Oil earn $93 BILLION in 3 months. Trajectory of a suicidal civilization.
And climate experts still, in the year of our dead lord 2026, aren't pointing out that self-interested economics will only serve to make AGW impossibly intractable. But don't be a doomer. Their wins are a fucking great thing. But not real climate wins. Yet. Only some doors opening.
El-Sayed, Lawrence and McKinney all won progressive campaigns in Michigan last night by talking about climate and clean energy like it was a kitchen-table issue — because skyrocketing energy bills and endless wildfire smoke matter to people.
The violence it would take to rebalance our economics (i.e. politics) is nothing compared to the violence it takes to sustain it.
The easiest political litmus test of all time but most of the super-moral gigabrain academic high ground "liberals" on this hellsite are afraid to say it.
Israel is the new Nazi Germany and anyone who denies that (lots of "liberals" on this hellsite) is a nazi. Simple as that.

Privacy Considerations with AI Tools
Artificial intelligence (AI) tools come in all sorts of flavors. There are notetaking and transcription tools, chatbots, device-wide agentic AI features, grammar and writing tools, translation assistants, AI summaries, and research tools, among others. As a term, “AI” may refer to features in apps, apps themselves, third-party plug-ins, or a...

Wherever they're native in Europe (and elsewhere!) we need to reintroduce beavers. They restore wet ecosystems and create excellent firebreaks that also act as refuges for other animals. And help with flooding! Rewilding is, here again, the way to go... From today: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Beef is the top single cause of deforestation globally, by far. Next come oilseeds, especially soy and palm, but the vast majority of those is fed to livestock - chicken, pigs, dairy cows. We can't have our planet and eat it! We urgently need to shift diets away from animal-based foods.
The largest cause of deforestation is, and has been, the expansion of farmland. But the production of which products, in particular, has been driving this in recent decades? A recent study, published in Nature Food by Chandrakant Singh and Martin Persson, answered this question.

LMAO! Trump is talking about Greedflation like leftists and progressives did during the peak of inflation during Biden's presidency.
Trump angrily says that big oil companies like Cheron and ExxonMobil are "making too much money ... I'm not happy about it"
FYI the states that generate the most wind power are Texas, Iowa, and Oklahoma
Trump: "Any country with windmills is a loser"

nukebros are having a bad one, and it's not going to get any better ever.
Ah, it's two arms of the Danube, and they now divert more water around the bend into the old arm by pulverizing a rock in the way, and a sunken a barrier at a strategic location opposite the bend. Sounds like a summer afternoon in the forest with childhood friends getting slightly overexcited 😁
What this tells you is that rich governments are going all-in on complete totalitarian techno-fascism.

What a privilege to be among the last few generations of people who will be able to read books. We have a view of cosmic and planetary history that nothing else in the known (to us) universe has.
Recently people in central Ohio where large populations of Haitian migrants live have noticed an increased amount of ICE vehicles around their areas. In Columbus, OH there was a noise demo outside the hotel ICE was staying in until around midnight when their check out was scheduled for 6am.
Climate optimists are so fucking depressing...
🤯🍔 Did you know that producing *one pound* of beef releases as much greenhouse gas pollution as burning 25-50 pounds of coal? And producing grass-fed beef is even worse? We gotta rethink our high levels of beef consumption...
Red meat production accounts for 30% of global food-related emissions but generates only 5% of dietary calories or 2% of the global protein supply. That's why Project Drawdown researcher @enviroem.bsky.social calls it the coal of the food system: https://bit.ly/4x2yGnz
