The most iconic figure in the environmental sciences is the Keeling Curve, the CO₂ record from Mauna Loa, Hawaii.

@noaa.gov had a wonderful site where you could visualize and download these data, and now it's just gone. These data belong to us and we should not let this happen!

The news getting you down? I invite you to stare at this chart of solar and wind deployed capacity in China.

They blew past their ambitious 2030 target... last July.

We need to go further. Current aviation levels are far from compatible with our Paris temperature & equity commitments. The CCC envisage little change from today ‘compensated’ by a future stufffed full of speculative (at scale) negative emission technologies (~58MtCO2 worth by 2050 & lots of 🤞🤞🤞).
Any politician who says that Heathrow Airport expansion is compatible with the UK's obligations as set out in the 2008 Climate Change Act & the 2015 Paris Agreement is (pick at least one:

1️⃣ ignorant
2️⃣ deluded
3️⃣ lying

Prioritising grow above climate doesn't mean you prioritise growth over facts.

NEW — OMB temporarily pauses all agency grants and loans programs.

Per copy of memo: "The use of Federal resources to advance Marxist equity, transgenderism, and green new deal social engineering policies is a waste of taxpayer dollars that does not improve the day-to-day lives of those we serve."

As Marc demonstrates here (& in www.allouryesterdays.info) the climate issue is not new.

"the problem is not information .. it's inertia"

...but 'mis'information was a major part of the problem on the science & is today as nonsense techno-babble dominates the debate on cutting emissions. 1/2

It looks like this was part of France being involved in the Lebanon ceasefire. This would mean that Palestinian lives were exchanged for Lebanese lives. As someone who’s both, I’m just disgusted and horrified - then again, this is what’s considered normal in politics these days.

37 towns have been destroyed in #Lebanon by #Israel in 4 months.

Do I need to tell you how the world would have reacted if a single Israeli town was even close to being destroyed?

Every single day we are reminded that our lives do not matter to the so-called international community.
