If I can’t see it, it isn’t happening: NOAA website recording global CO2 is not being updated due to US govt shutdown.

while renewables also grow.

Humanity will simply consume all the energy it gets its hands on. More is not the answer.

Coal production continues to grow past its current vastly-excessive state …

CO2 is 424.29 ppm, up from 421.87 ppm a year ago and 397.56 ppm ten years ago. Here's what today’s growth looks like plotted with the last 800,000 years.

Here’s our Tipitaka translations on the shrine at Sarnath, the place where the Buddha gave his first teaching.

Here's the workshop. I don't have any closeups, but hopefully soon.

Personally, I’ve been convinced that climate action has been a waste of time by doing climate action for twenty years and achieving nothing. But let’s just appoint another oil CEO to head the CoP and host it in another petrostate and insist that anyone who is disillusioned is a bot or a troll.

In the Park Beach Resort Motel, my sister was woken by a crash. A painting fell off the wall onto her bed, revealing this on the wall.

Wisdom hides everywhere.

A little reminder that “percentage of renewables in the mix” tells us precisely nothing about climate change harms. What matters is the global atmospheric CO2—currently 428.55 ppm—which is largely driven by global greenhouse gas emissions.

Keep fossil fuels in the ground.

I got a few different results, it would suggest I was looking for other movies until I narrowed the search.

The Buddha guided people to uplift themselves and each other. Conmen deliberately appeal to dumb followers so they can take their money. That's why they dress like that and call themselves a "humble man of God". They flaunt their own hypocrisy so as to short-circuit moral conscience.

@vatniksoup.bsky.social I suppose we couldn't get the soup on this conference?

Incredible list of topics.

Better focus on reducing production—keep the fuel in the ground.

And to trace the state of climate change overall, nothing beats the Keeling Curve. Which I regret to inform you has broken 430 ppm for the first time in 30 million years.

Stay cool folks.

Here's a graph, the black lines show government's projected fuel production, the colored lines show what we should be using to keep to 1.5C (C1, C2) or 2C (C3). Source: www.nature.com/articles/s41...
