Seeing posts that say it will be too late to do anything makes me cringe. We will be doing things to try to survive, adapt. If big players don’t act fast enough, what can local communities do to improve their resilience and adapt? #climatesolutions #grassroots #NoWaitingforGodot

I too am a broken record. Doing nonprofit work in Jamaica, it’s a no brainer for schools to install solar but they don’t tend to have the financing. The cost benefit has long made sense from a household perspective given that we have high electric costs. How to finance the transition?

Thinking of the structural changes in the economy with the new policies and wondering how people are thinking to figure out near term elasticities. Any thoughts on how various elasticities will change @jmwooldridge.bsky.social @dynarski.bsky.social @paulgp.com #econsky

This is pretty sad that we need to paint over integrity. But it’s always been costly to stand up for anything.
Assuming we make it through the next couple of decades, this will be an incredible image for future historians/students of the Trump era

Thinking of U2 lyric “loves the highest law” and thinking God is the highest law. But God is love, so both are true. Thinking of arguments people have when they are saying the same thing yet not making any progress on what they both want. Communication tips welcome!

If we murdered all the corals in the world, we would decrease CO₂ emissions from calcification by ~1 billion tonnes of CO₂ every year. This is not a suggestion to do that.
Does making seashells 🐚 in the ocean to drawdown atmospheric CO₂ sound like a good climate solution to you?
Then you’re the target audience of this blog from @mtyka.bsky.social explaining how precipitation of calcium carbonate to make shells uses bicarbonate and actually releases CO₂. 🌊

I made a list of marine scientists and oceanographic institutions here for the Oceanography feed. It looks like many people tried Bluesky but then gave up months ago, when it was still quiet. How do we get them back? 🌊

Are the people planning to power their lives by #solar and the ones planning to slow warming by blocking out the sun speaking to each other #climatequestion #climate not to mention growing food. Can anyone explain the holistic plan here?
