It looks like one of the oil industry's organizations has decided to finally take methane emissions seriously. They've started a library with 150 resources!!

That should do it.

Drop everything and read this brilliant @charlescmann.bsky.social essay on how modern agriculture feeds the world. Fertilizer, irrigation, and genetics! www.thenewatlantis.com/publications...

The next 24 hours are going to be interesting here in SoCal:

Massive methane leaks detected in Antarctica, posing potential risks for global warming #methane #Antarctica #GlobalWarming #emissions english.elpais.com/climate/2025...

Price of #eggs got you down? Hope my new babies can brighten your day!

I can't stop thinking about Marc Andreessen saying in his "Techno-Optimist Manifesto" that the invention of air-conditioning has "solved the problem of heat." 🫠

I bet you never thought you’d be excited to hear about barrels of pink bacterial sludge? These #mems pull #methane out of the air and can start immediately cooling the #climate!

I knew that Haber-Bosch uses 1% of the world’s energy to produces fixed nitrogen needed for food production, without which 2-3 billion people would starve to death. But I didn’t know the whole story. Thanks to @pauldauenhauer.bsky.social for the book recommendation.

This is your regular reminder that highly paid, grown-ass adults are sitting around figuring out how to leverage their companies' bazillions of dollars to get you to eat more crap food.

Yeah why are we fat again?

Early January in Northern CA and the bees are already bringing in loads of pollen! Climate change is mostly depressing, so I try to enjoy what I can. 🐝

This is exactly the attitude that I’m trying to push back against. We eat over 1 trillion eggs a year! It will not be simple to stop! Nobody likes the tradeoffs I write about but there just aren’t easy solutions to food and climate problems.

Yes, let's make climate change and bird flu not live up to the hype as well.

Gorgon CCS is the world's largest pure carbon capture and storage operation. Since 2019, it has been weakly sputtering away out on Barrow Island at Australia's highest emitting industrial facility.

You may have heard it's a failure. Do you know why it's a failure?

A long article and accompanying 🧵

“Despite being responsible for a third of greenhouse gas emissions, 90% of deforestation and 60% of biodiversity loss, Food systems received just 3.4% of the total $115.9bn climate finance mobilised by developed countries in 2022.”

There are other solutions to the methane problem in livestock agriculture, which I have written about here: www.linkedin.com/posts/waynev...

Shocking update: relying on super emitters to feel shame doesn’t work! While detecting #methane leaks is important, we also have to work on technologies to actually deal with the methane.

Methane emissions are some of the biggest impacts on climate, but the good news are also our lowest hanging fruit to actually reduce temps now, compared to co2 whose effects occur over centuries.

Since it seems like a good group of climate scientists are here, I was hoping to start a discussion on accounting for short lived climate gasses. #GWP100 is a terrible metric in many ways, yet has become the standard for calculating CO2e, especially #methane
