There have been many adventures and much personal growth; surely I started this at least... four people ago? I am surprised to realize I have grown into-- rather than out of-- the work. I think I might like it.

Great essay by @jmijin.bsky.social on what exactly a "just transition" away from fossil fuels means. I'm excited for her forthcoming book, "A Just Transition for All: Workers and Communities for a Carbon Free Future" from MIT Press!

"So if [carbon removal] is the only thing with economics behind it, then yeah, like, magic! Everything is now all of a sudden carbon removal!"

“Nature based solutions” is one of those terms that has been used so broadly it is almost hard to define— anybody know if “restoration” is the same? Does it have a specific legal, social, scientific usage, and is it compatible with Jaime’s suggestion?

Proposal: Unbundle the methods, stop calling it mCDR, and talk about “Restoring Seawater” to realize its CO2 uptake potential. It could help the public understand what Direct Ocean Removal and Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement have in common and avoid conflation with ecosystem manipulation.

The more I think about it, the more the term "mCDR" seems problematic. It lumps methods that would manipulate ecosystems (e.g. iron fertilization, macroalgae cultivation) with totally unrelated approaches that use the natural properties of seawater to accomplish CO2 drawdown from the atmosphere🧵 1/2
