Honestly I've been losing focus the past few days and this was a great reminder to slow things down and restore balance between myself and this world
the world doesn’t need roughly 90% of the tech, apps, and programs that people are working on today

we two things: real climate solutions, and whatever creative project you’ve been putting off

🚫 ‘Tech fixes’ like blue ammonia & digital ag aren’t climate solutions — they’re distractions.

I’ve been thinking about how my passion about technology and the environment are always seemingly at odds, yet coupled at the same time, like the two sides of a coin. I can’t wait for there to be some kind of harmonious unity between the two.

Stumbled across Nira Energy, an electric grid integration analysis service that helps innovative clean energy start ups find cost-effective and least-friction integration points to the existing power grid. Such a cool solution to a problem that I didn’t know existed! www.niraenergy.com #climatetech

At least 16 termination letters have already been sent — and hundreds more are coming, people inside NIH tell me.

DOGE recommends cuts to the FAA.

Hundreds of workers get fired, including those tasked with producing air traffic navigation maps.

Now Starlink is reportedly in line to take over a $2 billion contract to upgrade the nation's air traffic control systems.

See how this works?

Communities thrive when corporations die. Sustained economic boycotts are vital to our strategy.

The dependence on corporations because of their immediately cheaper or quicker options is in the long term more costly.
