Can resilience be observed? We present a resilience-potential framework that bridges Arctic sea ice observations and nonlinear tipping theory. #Arctic #SeaIce #TippingPoints

the general vibe of this seems to be as of a good news story

https://www.wired.com/story/china-opens-worlds-first-wind-powered-underwater-data-center/

but i as usual clearly see & declare the glass half empty, not full

the Gaia virus species, humans, has already created the raging & escalating climate crisis, whose symptoms are not solely atmospheric heating, but also ocean heating... dramatically so. thus the bulk seawater #enthalpy is already much higher now than it was say 42 years ago. any plan to start adding additional heat energy directly to the oceans, as this plan entails, is merely compounding the existing problem... infinitesimally maybe for a single datacentre, but the arseholic techbros, oligarchs, & their puppet govts seem hellbent on squillions of new d/c all over the rock. be they atmospheric, or submerged, they all contribute further to climate crisis

the solution is obvious... repudiate this bullshit scourge of gen-ai shitfuckery, then channel all that ingenuity, money, & enterprise into urgently arresting the crisis

Fuck Generative AI, coz:

- largest theft of private IP in human history
- generates authoritative bullshit via unsolvable hallucination
- massive water & energy demands as climate crisis intensifies

China Opens World’s First Wind-Powered Underwater Data Center

With an initial capacity of 24 megawatts, the innovative data center uses seawater as a natural cooling system.

in a totes non-violent conciliatory entirely pacific way, elbow's head should be held down the toilet bowl til he acknowledges the truth of this & immediately abandons all fossil fools

"We're afraid to make that transition:" Ex-Biden official goes toe-to-toe with big Australian gas players

Former US science envoy calls out Australia's push for gas, but is amazed that renewables have succeeded at all, given the wall of money arrayed against it.

How positive tipping points may be the key to protecting tropical rainforests | The-14

Scientists say positive tipping points could help save tropical rainforests by making forest protection affordable, attractive and accepted.

*This is a toot about TOoT*

I reviewed 'Tipping Out of Trouble' (for @Nature), a new book by Marten Scheffer on what we can learn from past societal transformations to ensure a good rather than dystopian Anthropocene.

Sustainability or dystopia? What past patterns tell us about where society is heading

A new book applies principles of environmental tipping points to past societal transformations — and attempts to draw lessons about what the future holds today.

Since this industrial tipping point, human activity has injected roughly 2.5 trillion tons of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, continuing at a current rate of approximately 40 billion tons annually. To visualize this volume of gas, this rate represents pushing the mass equivalent of 800,000 Titanics into the sky every single year, marking a staggering physical mass transfer from the earth to the air.

Our history provides a terrifyingly accurate mirror for this exact scenario: the Paleocene-Eocene Thermal Maximum (PETM) 56 million years ago. During this ancient spike, a massive injection of carbon triggered rapid global warming, severe ocean acidification, and altered ocean circulation. The PETM shows us exactly what happens to the planet's equilibrium when climate systems are pushed past their tipping points.

nope, i just ain't having it, peter!

Many of the supporters of One Nation are hardworking, decent Australians who are disillusioned with the major political parties and are worried about the uncertainties facing their families’ financial future, the high cost of living and the impact of AI on their jobs. At the core of their concerns is a deep-seated worry that Australia is heading in the wrong direction and they are not being listened to or included in the nation’s journey.that's as maybe, but their choice now apparently to favour a party of hate & bigotry denotes them also as haters & bigots. pls don't try to bullshit those of us still with neurons & morality.

ofc they can & should be pissed off bigly with the old parties, but the answer is never One Notion, it's the Greens & ProgIndies. these voters can & should be turning their votes there. that they don't, is unforgivable & shameful, & they'll never have my compassion for acting so arseholeristically.

Pauline Hanson is no prime minister. This is what Labor must do to stem the rise of One Nation

When I became premier in Queensland in 1998, it was against a rise in One Nation support. There are valuable lessons for federal Labor today
