Why are we ignoring science? Why are we letting so many kids die? So many species die? Is this the age of Endarkenment? Born: 320ppm. 📸 Chris Cassell

Imagine a problem so big that the entirety of humanity depended on solving it. If there were a once in a lifetime chance to work on THAT problem, then that's the problem I would want to work on.
What about you?

Hurricane Helene damage could reach $160 billion.
Please tell me again about how fossil fuels are too valuable to leave in the ground.

The language of whitewashing:
🇮🇱: Invades Lebanon
Media: Israel sends troops
🇮🇱: Bombs civilians
Media: Blasts heard, people say
🇮🇱: Destroys Rafah
Media: A limited operation
🇮🇱: Blocks aid
Media: Hunger stalks Gaza
🇮🇱: Flattens apartment buildings
Media: A targeted strike

BREAKING: Young people are sitting-in at @CBS HQ in NYC urging Moderator @NorahODonnell to include a question about climate change and Hurricane Helene in tonight's VP debate.
The media needs to talk about Hurricane Helene for what it is—Big Oil’s greed destroying our homes.

We see your 1980s reports and raise you the 1965 speech by @APIenergy President Frank Ikard to a big oil conference, warning "time is running out" to "save the world's peoples from the catastrophic consequence of pollution."
I see @MichaelEMann's 1982 Exxon internal report and raise you a 1980 presentation by API to Exxon, Chevron, and BP predicting that 2.5 degrees of global warming would be so devastating to human civilization it would to bring "world economic growth to a halt."

I thought @ProfBrianCox was sensible. Doesn't he think maybe we need to go about saving our civilization, before exploring the universe? Because we're not going to do it with a collapsed civilization, re: climate change.

I wouldn't rely on google for climate science, or any complex scientific field. No credible scientists still claim sensitivity as low as 1.5°C. The seminal research to date on ECS is Hansen et al, calculating a range of 3.6-6.0°C, 4.8°C ± 1.2°C academic.oup.com/oocc/articl…
It is October 1, 2024. Has the X climate community by now taught me everything I need to know about where we are in collapse and where we are going, how we will and won't respond, what will kill us first and most cruelly. Other than doom porn, us and there any further value here?
I count 78 flooding events for September 2024 in this thread. Over two per day 😳
🧵 I've put together this thread to show just how much flooding has happened around the world, and this is only for the month of September—and it's not even over yet! Please share this because I don't think the message is getting out there.
