After a couple of tweaks, I think this is done. I don’t want to do too much to it.
Oil on linen, 100 x 100cm. I’ll be adding it to my website: www.artachart.com so do message me if interested in buying it.

Bob has interesting thoughts on the 'Genesis Mission'. But is there a useful path for Earth Science (writ large) here? Possibly yes.
“Genesis Mission” thoughts:
1. Wacky name, makes me think some transhumanist Silicon Valley type named it (Chris Wright probably counts, even though he’s not actually SV)
2. Publicly accessible data centers at national labs and open large deep learning models could be really valuable for science

Nations clinched a deal ... that is pointless without an obligation on nations to end all new fossil fuels extraction and development, and to stop the accumulation of CO2 in the atmosphere that is cooking us! FFFS! #COP30

If you've bashed your head against a door 30 times and it hasn't budged it's probably time to rethink your approach to getting through it.
🧵 After 30 years of COP meetings we are still stuck with
> countries being urged to "voluntarily" accelerate their action to reduce their use of fossil fuels.
> no agreement on a roadmap to halt deforestation

A mother and her 15 year old autistic son are reunited after nearly 50 days apart.
Emmanuel Garcia went missing, and rather than check missing person’s reports, Houston PD called ICE.
ICE sent him to the Office of Refugee Resettlement and his mom has been fighting to get him back ever since.
