"Lód morski na Antarktydzie sprawia, że nasza planeta działa - chłodząca osłona przeciwsłoneczna, izolujący koc, unikalne siedlisko, ściana ochronna, globalna pompa oceaniczna.
Roczny cykl zamarzania, a następnie topnienia Oceanu Południowego jest jak bicie serca.
Tak jak zmiana bicia naszego serca wpływa na całe nasze ciało, tak zmiana lodu morskiego wokół Antarktydy wpływa na cały świat.
Ten kluczowy system podtrzymywania życia na Ziemi może słabnąć."

If you're even vaguely familiar with #RightToRepair , care about #ClimateChange #Sustainability and #PlannedObsolescence this is amazing news!

Credit where it's due ... thanks to #LouisRossman and many more for 10 years of work to finally have a major victory over #JohnDeere which was lobbying hard to stop farmers from having the right to fix their own property.

After ten years, John Deere FINALLY lost

FUCK YOU JOHN DEERE!

I gave a lightning talk at #Confoo about things developers can do to fight #ClimateChange. It went off great! Now I want to expand it to a full 45-minute talk.


Are you a #WebDeveloper who cares about #ClimateChange? I need your help!

My team at Open Earth Foundation makes Open Source software to fight climate change.

We want to make our #DeveloperExperience better, so it's easier for people to contribute code to our projects.

We need volunteers willing to do a 1-hour Zoom call with us.

You'll be given a small task to do, and you'll share screen with us and think out loud as you try to do it.

If you think you could do this, please DM me!


bribes and direct action. But direct action is best when spiced up with cash too, if we want it to be sustainable.

Sadly, direct action is often sponsored by agents who aren't participating in fixing #ClimateChange at all.


Report proposes tax on the ultra-rich to finance a global climate fund

Led by French economists Thomas Piketty and Lucas Chancel, the study advocates a progressive rate of 1.5% to 3% for fortunes of over $100 million

Here's a really good, fast overview of the new #California roadmap for reaching #netzero #emissions by 2045.

It's by Dan Sperling, the founding director of the Institute of #Transportation Studies at #UCDavis. He also explains why California's moves on #climatechange reverberate around the world.

I am hiring a lead full-stack Web engineer to help build #OpenSource software to fight #ClimateChange.

If you've shipped 1-2 Web projects and been the tech lead for 1 software project: we need your help.

Please boost for reach! #fedihire

#Capitalism will never solve #ClimateChange. Doing so would be putting something other than profit ahead of the primary drive, which is an antithesis to capitalism.


Hello everyone 🙂

I have been on #Twitter for 13 years, but after the recent events I've decided to have a look at this place. Let's give Mastodon a chance!

My favourite topic is #science, and I'm especially interested in #biotech and #genomics. I also care about environment, #climatechange, #opendata, transparency, human rights. In the last few years I mainly tweeted about the #OriginOfCovid, but I left this debate because of its toxicity. Maybe I'll try again here on Mastodon! 😉

If heat wasn't enough of a scary factor in #ClimateChange, its deadly combination with air humidity should give anyone pause.

Last week I was in a thread where someone wondered about heat, human survivability/habitability, and climate change. I've done some technical work on this specific question, so, quick thread on basics, and what to worry about.

Key term to know: The "wet bulb" temperature.


I got reminded about “Das Erbe” today. Story is that the player inherits a building and has to fix it while taking environmental responsibility doing so.

This game is ~20 years old and, like Global Effect, features #ClimateChange warning about our limited resources with a focus on ozone already.

Like many old games it can be played in a browser nowadays:

Can you imagine if the World was just as alarmed about #ClimateChange as it is about the current #Coronavirus?

Even then it is to late to stop it of course. People had to be alarmed in the nineties, when all facts were already there.

You can also turn it around. Imagine when the World is not alarmed at all about the Coronavirus? They just regard it as an scientific 'opinion', and only after 2040 they will start thinking about doing something about it. Just imagine!
