Crop damages are non-linear Crops can tolerate heat up to a particular point, past that point the plant gets damaged then dies. Climate change is affecting what we can grow and where, with implications we can't really predict.

Agreed Just saying that DEI can include gender specifics as well and it is weaponized by dipshits intent on demonstrating that white men are the best at everything. Remember the BS surrounding that Alaskan airlines flight? Anyway, it’s all bad and I think we’re in agreement generally speaking.

Is someone able to wipe their own ass? Then, in my humble opinion, they are not old…yet. Personally, I’m more concerned about growing old mentally than physically…and I am not referring to senility. No matter how I get I will ALWAYS endeavor to improve, learn, and grow as a human being.

planting trees is important for the environment and all but being able to see growth over time is so important to my mental health. That's part of why plants are so good for me. 🌱 July 5, 2020 to July 9, 2024

As the GOP's Project 2025 threatens librarians that stock books about LGBTQ+ folks with jail time for "pornography," Melania Trump "dazzles" while raising $1.4M from rich Log Cabin queens who think they can escape fascism by praising the fascists for her rapist husband's campaign.

This will be an interesting day to reflect on in the future. "Battery cells at $50/kWh means the technology to decarbonize most of road transport globally is already here, as opposed to in some future scenario." EVs are cheaper than ICE now. Today.

I spy a seahorse-shaped dust pillar in the Large Magellanic Cloud. 👀

Hubble observed this region of gas, dust, and stars in 2008. The “seahorse” is about 20 light-years across—roughly 4x the distance between the Sun and nearby star Alpha Centauri: bit.ly/4bVJxpq 🔭 🧪

Florida GOP barred heat protection for workers, now the federal gov’t is stepping in.

“Workers all over the country are passing out, suffering heat stroke & dying from heat exposure from just doing their jobs, & something must be done to protect them."

I think it’s important to point out that isn’t JUST emissions. Biodiversity loss, resource overshoot, and general pollution seem to get lost in the sauce when discussing environmental decline.

Gorsuch is appearing at the Nixon Library to promote his new book. He previously appeared at the Nixon Library to plug his last book, “A Republic, If You Can Keep It.” Irony is dead. And because it was an official act, no one can be prosecuted for the murder.
