Free thinker, apolitical.
Presumably you didn’t fly though. It’s great when climate scientists can lead by example.

Makes no sense. How can McDonalds operate restaurants using intermittent power? Sometimes there will be too much, sometimes nothing at all.

It’s bonkers that we operate our electricity markets in this way. What kind of perverse incentives are at work?

How do you reconcile this with the climate damage caused by air travel?

They probably classify it as hate speech.

Dunno. Maybe for the same reason they’d delete one about someone you approved of being murdered?

Advocating political violence is not a great look to be honest.

You certainly get around.

Do you hate anyone that disagrees with you? If so that doesn’t sound like it would end well.

Certainly clumsy in his language and use of scientific units. I think the point he was trying to make was that the accuracy of the measurement instrument seems at odds with the precision of the claimed results. Has this been debunked somewhere?

Mann told blatant untruths, why is it outrageous?

I hope your flights weren’t too turbulent.🙏

Especially as no Americans are being killed, only Russians, Ukrainians and North Koreans. It’s disappointing Trump won’t keep this going, at the very least until Ukraine runs out of fighting age men.

We are so fucked.

I’m sure. But it’s also quite possible that very many are apprehensive about what’s to come. Life for women under the Taliban is not a bed of roses. The same could well be true in Syria.

Are you sure that Syrian women will be looking forward to life in an Islamist theocracy? How about the minority groups at risk of persecution? At this stage it’s far from clear this represents a step forward.
December 8, 2024 at 4:47 PM
Be careful what you wish for. The future for many Syrians, including all its women, is far from clear.

Now that all the coal power stations have gone there’s little option but to burn trees at Drax.

It’s just a shame he blocks anyone showing even the slightest dissent. Good scientists welcome their ideas being challenged. That’s how science progresses.

I believe that commercial greenhouses operate at about 1000ppm. That would make sense because it closer to the level earth has experienced for most of its geological history.
