Related: once, on the old bird site, I posted that I accidentally grew too much garlic, and the world responded with what to do with too much garlic. It was epic. As it turns out, there is no such thing as too much garlic 🧄.

In this new piece by Alexandra Talty, AT EVERY DEPTH co-author @tessahill.bsky.social discusses her study in Tomales Bay that found that seagrass meadows offset acidification, and could increase shell growth by up to 40 percent. 🌊

@tessahill.bsky.social and Ph.D. student Elisabeth Sellinger are exploring "how seagrasses absorb carbon dioxide, transfer it to biomass, and store it. This will allow us to better understand the extent to which seagrass preservation and restoration can help fight climate change." #ClimateAction 🌊

🙏🏼 Thank you! I’ve been hoping that you’d comment on the CA 30x30 draft framework in terms of whether we are getting closer to incorporating these elements? opc.ca.gov/wp-content/u...

Got up this morning and glanced at my to do list from yesterday and while many things were crossed off, AUGUST was written in large writing, and then circled three times. And I don’t have the faintest idea what I meant when I wrote that.

Seriously @katharinehayhoe.com I was actually thinking in my head, what does Katharine do when this happens to her on a daily basis. It’s exhausting. Voice in my head: Channel Katharine Hayhoe! I tried my best!

In other news: working on my 2nd book now, a collection of short stories about the weird sh*t that happens to you when you try to talk with people about your book about climate change, because this is only scratching the surface…. 📚 #BookTourStories

My son was w/me at my book talk this weekend, so he was standing there as a man asserted that my knowledge about climate change was just my “opinion” and that I needed to be open to other perspectives that questioned the existence of climate change. My kid: this is what you deal with? 😭

Biden already officially set the US target to zero by 2050. The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law & Inflation Reduction Act doubled expected emissions reductions by 2030 & moved us from the red line to the blue line. Now we need more action to get us to the existing US target, the yellow zero line.

Hey! I am launching something new at KQED. It's a 📘📗📕📙BOOK CLUB 📘📗📕📙 for people who want a better climate future.  The central idea is that the best thing we can do to spur climate action is to talk about it with people in our daily lives. (Thank you Katharine Hayhoe for the inspiration)

“The article shows that men are more successful in pursuing individual interests against service demands and how this depends on their relational work as well as organisational role expectations, reducing women’s prospects of ‘saying no’.”

As of next week, the oceans will have set a rather preposterous heat record every day for a year.
