Even though we post from Ecosia, the cost of viewing what we put out has a footprint at scale, the more interaction, the more emissions.
Once more, we will likely retreat to the Fastfrwrd platform.

We have made 406 posts and have 113 followers. That means for every 1 follower we make 4 posts. Not bad, in and of itself. However, each post that may be comparable to a 'tweet' costs: "a single tweet emits 0.026g in CO2-equivalent emissions"

Once again, polluting more gives more gains. Posting on this platform, even using mostly text is still participating in the deluge of emissions. It makes it not fun and instead a gamble that constantly posting will lead to a bigger payoff worth the emissions. Not sure it is ever worth it.

COP30 approaching, means it's been 30 years of just standing in the way and not doing enough to get out. Will we let this affront continue for our shared greed where we all one day hope to be rich instead of alive on a livable planet where we may have less luxuries?

Yet nothing happens? Some people think a world without money, where everything is just free is preferable.
The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.
The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.
Read that back.
When 400 people control more wealth than half a country’s population, we have a very serious problem.

There's no always, there are no rules, there are no guarantees, it's just what goes without resistance, and for how long.
Fascism is a cult.

Do you know any stories of worlds where everything is free? Some people think that's the way out. Just gift economies, money-less societies, stuff like that.
Your art isn’t bad just because it’s not selling right now.
We’re in a recession and people don’t know when they’re gonna eat next, nobody can afford fun things because the economy is crumbling. It’s going to be hard a while.

Are there studies on money-less communities/societies?
study after study after study shows that literally just handing people money and telling them "do what you want with this" reduces homelessness, increases food security for children, makes it more likely people will find and retain jobs.1

South Korea has mandated solar canopies for large parking lots. It's a no-brainer. We could offer firms incentives to do it here, or they could just friggin' do it! (H/t @assaadrazzouk.bsky.social)

What if Walmart turned its parking lots into solar farms?

Realized one of our game characters is going to have a boss who personalizes daily video messages so that he addresses each employee by name through AI-enhancement of DAILY briefings. Knowing the ecological cost of AI, this frivolous 'optimization' for the organization is a fearful possibility.
I've been getting back into the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy series after many years, and the most relatable part is how everyday objects like doors and elevators have been imbued with artificial intelligence and it just makes them obnoxious and frustrating to use and everyone hates it.

So my brain went: We don't have anything to be happy about right now. But you want to smoke and forget, so we are going to give you happy, ok? Just... be careful because... we can burn out. And burn out they did. Serotonin. Dopamine. Manufacturing happy. When things get bleak.
Thanks, brain.

When it comes to #energy expenditure and #industrial processes we have individuals who say: You mean if I just don't care what I do with my #waste I can make a tonne of #money? Maybe even doubl(-r-)/e/ back and compensate a bit of it and make sure people do't hound me?!
