Hey! Northern hemisphere folks:
this is my annual reminder to myself and perhaps also to you that if you have the schedule autonomy to permit it, get out for a walk or whatever during daylight hours! It's important!
You can work more when it's dark but you need whatever sunlight is available!

A carbon market — where #CarbonCredits are bought & sold — always sounded counterintuitive. A promise not to pollute does not equal a reduction in #pollution.

After it was found most offsets did not represent real carbon reductions, the money dried up. But successful schemes such as Kasigau in Kenya now face a stark future

“Roughly 80-89% of the world’s people want their governments to ‘do more’ to address #ClimateChange, and nearly 2/3rds are on board with that action costing them a bit. Yet most think they are the minority, telling pollsters they believe that only around 30% also want stronger climate action.”

The vast majority of people want their governments to take climate action—but most wrongly think they’re in the minority. The media is partly to blame.

Just 23% of the world’s land can be classified as ‘wilderness’ — untouched by human development
15% of the world’s land has been modified by humans (eg. urban development, agriculture, etc).
40% of the world’s land is degraded*, mostly by food production and/or pollution.
Degraded land could be used for clean energy infrastructure — such as solar farms — which is needed as we transition away from fossil fuels.
