The Internet Is a Net Negative

I'm usually an optimist about things. That outlook has served me well in life. It's helped me build open source projects that millions of people use. It's...

Could "happiness" be the secret ingredient, in support of far-reaching climate action, cutting through the divisive noise of culture wars?

Dejligt. Vi er naturligvis enige om. at 2030-målet kun er et delmål, og at en klimapolitik, som sigter imod alt andet end net negative er uambitiøs.

Vi er tæt på "næste målstreg" siger artiklen. Lad os straks tegne en ny.

Danmark er et stort skridt tættere på at nå 2030-klimamålet

Især forskeres rapporter om lavbundsjorde og kulstof i skovene giver regeringen gratis klimagevinster.

Thank You Dr Auken. This is exactly right, we can get further than Net Zero if we aim further than Net Zero. The recent upsurge in renewables has exceeded all expectations, which tells us we need to up all expectations. When the ball starts rolling, push harder to make it go faster.

This is your daily reminder that you have millions of friends and allies on the path to climate action.

Also, and I repeat myself, #NetZero is unambitious. We need to actively reduce the amount of CO2 in the atmosphere. We need #NetNegative.This is not utopianism, it's basic realism.

This is your daily reminder that you have millions of friends and allies on the path to climate action. Also, one of the great things about teaching is the moment when something finally dawns on a student. They have worked their way to the point where it's almost there, and suddenly: understanding.The privilege of being the helper and witness in that process is immense. https://mastodon.world/@SuneAuken/111169861535162225

@evan But no need to worry. Most countries have agreed they will stop adding to climate change in 27 years time. 🙄

@Leisureguy @GreenFire we need #netnegative, and we need it now. Anyone who advocates #netzero is saying they are content with the current amount of climate breakdown.

Everything the govt is planning is destined to make our progress worse, not better.
And besides, our climate targets were unrealistically slow, because our job is to take out of the atmosphere a heritage of 200 years of industrial emissions. #NetNegative

UK missing climate targets on nearly every front, say government’s advisers

Britain has lost leadership in climate action and political failure means progress has stalled, Climate Change Committee says

@breadandcircuses
The balloon in the last panel is misleading. It should read:

"we'll get around to stop making it worse by 2050, or maybe 2060, or maybe..."

We need #NetNegative and we need it now.
