I'm posting at BlueSky now. I think you can see my BlueSky posts by following @cameronbrick.bsky.social
Reliance on Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) appears to be mere wishful thinking. In 2022 CCS has absorbed 40Mt of CO2 and it should scale-up to capture 6000Mt (i.e. 150 times as much) in 2050. Can anyone see that coming? IPCC Report says it's very costly. Why do we bother?

Putting climate action intervention to the test: Part 1

I have been resisting leaving Twitter because over the years I have enjoyed it a lot, I value the connections, and the alternatives are fragmented. But I increasingly feel that I should leave, or at least go dormant, and move my posting to another community.

🚨Excited to share a new #paper (in press at Emotion Review) with
@CameronBrick and @WilhelmHofmann on #emotions and #biodiversity 🌳🐾

Despite strong links between emotions and biodiversity, #research on these links remains relatively limited. With our paper, we therefore hope to inspire more research on the #emotional dimensions of biodiversity loss and #conservation, and we highlight some of the many #opportunities for researchers (and practitioners) to get involved.

Private jets are a luxury for the ultra-rich who wreck the planet with destructive lifestyles.

North America (basically the USA) is home to more private jets than all other regions of the world COMBINED.

Private jets are ~10 times more polluting per passenger than scheduled flights, and 50 times more than an average train ride.

It's time to #BanPrivateJets

Much of the reluctance to do what climate change requires comes from the assumption that it means trading abundance for austerity, and trading all our stuff and conveniences for less stuff, less convenience. But what if it meant giving up things we’re well rid of, from deadly emissions to nagging feelings of doom and complicity in destruction? What if the austerity is how we live now — and the abundance could be what is to come?

What if climate change meant not doom — but abundance?

People assume that adjusting to climate change means giving up stuff we want. But what if it means giving up things we’re well rid of?
