Canadian Wildfires & Saharan dust – a complex mixture of aerosols over Europe in recent days. Aerosol Optical Depth Forecast for organic matter and dust, update 2025-06-13. Impressive new animation by the scientists @CopernicusEU

So I learned yesterday, that Aluminium Oxide is very bad for the Ozone Layer

Also learned, there are currently 6000 #Starlink satellites that gravitate around Earth and plan is to send 12000 more in the coming years.
They have a life expectancy of 5 years, and each one of them produce about 30kg of Aluminium Oxide when burning in the atmosphere...

So, in short, #Musk is screwing up, the only #planetaryBoundary we almost crossed and managed to revert from...

#NateHagens new podcast episode with #Rockström ! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JaboF3vAsZs

Good questions by Nate, intermediate level answers by Rockström. About the 9 #PlanetaryBoundary , a bit about the 16 tipping elements, the inter-connectedness of it all. I hope, especially techies give this episode a go. Because: phasing out fossil fuels is not enough to successfully combat #ClimateChange . We do need a healthy planet to do this. An Earth system that helps us buffering the stress we caused by GHG.
Novel Entities kill biodiversity = land carbon sink functions less well. Nitrogen overload from fertilizer kills lakes and the Baltic Sea, also a carbon sink.
And so on.
We urgently do need to get back into and then stay within all planetary boundaries. PV and wind turbines aren't enough to tackle the #PlanetaryEmergency 🙂

PIK director Johan Rockström was awarded the 2024 Tyler Prize for Environmental Achievement in a festive ceremony held in Potsdam! He received it for his advancement of the #planetaryboundary science & its importance and reach across the world - congrats!
