Everything we've made will break, buildings and streets will crumble, and cities will be abandoned. But the CO₂ we emit into the atmosphere will persist for centuries, and the climatic impacts will last longer than human civilization has existed. This is our legacy for the future.

Acoustic waves interact with the seafloor, where its sediments include mud, so it is necessary to characterize mud’s geoacoustic properties to use acoustics in marine environments.

China has 30,000 miles of high-speed rail. The United States has 50 miles, if we're generous with the definition and include the Acela.
But billionaires and politicians don't take trains (Biden excepted).

There are few platforms where you can hear from real journalists and experts anymore.
Bluesky, Wikipedia, and NPR are among the last. And they deserve our support and engagement.
Thank you @bsky.app and @jay.bsky.team for Bluesky!
