🚨 Scientists have been warning for more than a century that catastrophic weather events were inevitable if humanity kept emitting GHG's. But is it worse than even they expected? Climate scientist @drkatemarvel.bsky.social shares her expert perspective in our latest Insights: https://bit.ly/4wsYPMw
Check out @globalecoguy.bsky.social keynote at @trellisgroup.bsky.social last month, where he discussed science-based roadmaps for the risks, opportunities, and problems. As well as what your organization should be tracking next. #TrellisImpact https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bzjirz3d-1w
Supercharging Climate Action with Science and Data
Science-based roadmaps for the risks, opportunities, and problems that didn't make today's agenda -- and what your organization should be tracking next. Speaker: Dr. Jonathan Foley – Executive Director, Project Drawdown Big ideas change the world -- b...

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
Not all climate solutions are created equal. Jonathan Foley makes a strong case for why we should stop chasing what sounds good and start funding what works. The biggest levers in food? Land use, food waste, fertilizer, and diet — not vertical farms. 🥗 🔗 https://bit.ly/47OjOiK
Choosing Climate Solutions That Deliver
Jonathan Foley discusses prioritizing scalable climate solutions in food systems, addressing trade-offs, diets, land use, and food waste.

"My advice: Stop listening to Gates, start listening to @globalecoguy.bsky.social. And as you’re celebrating America this July 4, raise a glass to the scientists who make this nation great." – @sammyroth.bsky.social www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/climate-hu...
Enough climate hushing, more listening to scientists
As we celebrate July 4, let's resolve to start learning from the folks who make America great.

"Our research shows that the most effective approach to climate action is for people to make change within societal systems, not just as consumers. After all, what are systems made of if not people?" - @kimberlynicholas.bsky.social Have you tried SHIFT? Drop us a line below! jointheSHIFT.earth
🌾 The soil beneath our feet can help our climate Improve Annual Cropping is a climate solution that currently avoids roughly 0.81% of global emissions. It's also a unique case where what's good for soil is good for farmers and the climate at once. Learn more → https://bit.ly/4oV5tbi
A lot of people ask us: "What's the #1 climate solution?" 🌍 Our answer is always the same: there isn't one. Our reasoning is simple: meaningful climate action requires nearly all of them, working together, across every sector. Dig into the full dataset → drawdown.org/explorer #ProjectDrawdown

Window‑mounted heat pumps! 🙌 "Much like a window air conditioner, these self-contained devices can be installed without professional help and plugged into a wall outlet." For both heating and cooling, this is also an excellent option for apartment dwellers. https://bit.ly/3SGhKEu
How window-mounted heat pumps can give tenants efficient heating and cooling
Permanently installing a heat pump system in a building is expensive. But new window units can deliver many of the benefits with far less cost and go with renters when they move.
