The same for journalists. If a politician or business leader spits out 1.5C or net zero, ask them how fast emissions need to drop to reach net zero in 2050, and how fast they are dropping today. Point out the contradiction. Make them explain it.

El océano es un gran aliado contra el cambio climático: absorbe cerca del 25% del CO₂ que emitimos y regula el calor del planeta. Pero su capacidad no es infinita. Un estudio reciente de Nature señala que el calentamiento está debilitando este proceso. Os lo cuento: 🧵⬇️

Unexpected decline in the ocean carbon sink under record-high sea surface temperatures in 2023 - Nature Climate Change
The ocean carbon sink strengthened in previous warm El Niño years due to reduced CO2 outgassing in the tropics. Here the authors show that the ocean carbon sink declined in 2023 despite record-high sea surface temperatures (SSTs), primarily due to SST-driven outgassing of CO2 in the subtropics.

We had a little protest of UMN faculty and researchers to raise awareness of what this administration is doing to science and universities.
Apparently lots of students have no clue. We’ve gotta break through our information bubbles and get the word out to the youngins’.
