I am a professional researcher (market intelligence), a public policy expert, an educator and I love to cook. Some people think I'm funny but not too many. I also post a fair amount on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/cruikshank

Hey. If anyone is looking to replace their US consultants and market researchers with a Canadian firm, hit me up. I mean, you should have been hiring us before but now you have a good reason.

Very interesting and a good illustration of how good science works. We have suspected for decades that pumping groundwater shifts Earth's rotation and now we can quantify it. Also wild that the tilt has raised sea levels by an estimated 1/4 inch.
Earth Has Tilted 31.5 Inches. That Shouldn't Happen.
Can we fix it back?

Them: OMG. I need help with <insert problem>

Me: Happy to help. <Provide extensive, curated list of solutions for said problem>

So I tried this trend where you ask ChatGPT to visualize your life based on the chats you have with it - this is what I got. Apparently, I talk about Indigenous Economic Development A LOT more than I would have guessed.

A lot of folks are giving up in advance. Capitulating before a single skirmish.

Well, not this old warrior. I’ve seen much worse from the U.S. government in my day. I’m concerned for our country, but not a bit scared of these miscreants. I’m ready to do my part.

Who’s with me?

I had the pleasure of working with Foresight Canada on this article, where we talk about the disproportionate impact of climate change on marginalized communities and what people like myself and @scottdagostino.ca are doing to fight back.
Marginalized Communities are Shaping a Sustainable Future - Foresight
Marginalized communities offer key insights into sustainable practices and cleantech innovation, despite being affected the most by climate change.

I'm trying to delete Twitter for good today, but instead, Twitter is trying to give me a seizure. Can I delete my account by mail?
