I think we need to quit subsidizing fossil fuels and invest more in renewables. Habitat restoration would go a long way to help draw down and store CO2 and also help the biodiversity crisis as well.

Have you read "Under a White Sky" by Elizabeth Kolbert? I think it brings up a lot of good points.

I don't support geoengineering in the way the article discusses. Yes, we need a lot of action to address climate change, but these technologies are really overpriced bandaids.

It's disappointing, but expected at this point. I found I wasn't able to listen to Outrage and Optimism's podcast on this COP because I was expecting this outcome and didn't want to watch it play out in real time...

This channel makes me really miss diving...

It should be mandatory. If you use other people's work without citing, it's plagiarism. Why should it be any different for a machine? There should be an entire bibliography of where the information it used came from - which could also help determine how legitimate the information is based on sources

Great webinar and film. Thanks for representing at COP30! Way to go WA!

Fuck AI for stealing people's intellectual property. Bare minimum, it should have to cite sources, pay royalties, and be heavily taxed for being a massive drain on the electricity grid.

2. Extremely anxious

Dont forget Fish and Wildlife Service and the refuges it manages

Love the bravery!

Remember when government communications were professional and non-partisan???

I think their goal is to gut every science program. With science, we learn and make progress. That is fundamentally the opposite of what these regressionist idiots want.

Done!

Patreon? Have you considered going abroad for medical care? I have looked into Thailand and Mexico... It's insane that flying halfway around the world to Bangkok, staying in a hostel for months, and paying out of pocket is still cheaper than healthcare in the US even when you have insurance.

These videos bring me joy

Excessive suppression from 10am rule led to a build up of fuels like downed trees, branches, leaf litter, which would naturally burn off in a fire cycle, helping cycle nutrients back. This build up contributes to changing fire from lower intensity fires to high intensity fires that damage soils.

I think it's very inaccurate to word this in such a way that it sets the stage for authorizing endless logging and mechanical fuel treatments because "we just haven't been doing enough extraction from the forest" aka "insufficient management"

"Decades of insufficient forest management - such as fuel build-up, invasive species spread and delayed treatments - have created conditions where wildfires burn hotter, faster and more destructively." - what's missing? CLIMATE CHANGE. also "poor management" from excess fire suppression
