Possibly the most interesting post I’ve read since this began, from a Gaza resident criticizing Israel, Hamas and PIJ alike. A colleague from Gaza comments that this is the majority view in the Strip today. English is my translation:

All anyone serious needs to see right here.
Replying to @atrupar
holy shit. Moderators ask for a show of hands of how many candidates believe in human-caused climate change. Not a single candidate raises their hand.

Whoever at @BCG thought of directly comparing how much the world spends to clean up literal 💩 versus what it would cost to clean up atmospheric CO2 at scale deserves a raise.

Twitter sucks and is depressing to use. More bots than before, more political (and hysterical) than before, and less fun than before. As soon as @Weather_West et al move along, I’m outta here.

This is a 1 million tons per year scale CO2 injection well. So 1,000 of those would be sufficient for a gigaton per year, or about the scale of total CO2 storage by 2050 in the Net-Zero America E+ scenario. That seems less daunting than I had pictured in my mind...
This is the wellhead for an ADM CCS facility. Millions of tons of CO2 have flown through it. Tiny footprint. Wild.
