We just observed the warmest January day on record for many countries in Europe.
Truly unprecedented in modern records.
David HoI have a bunch of #jokes about #CarbonOffset projects.
Most of them don't work.

Spot on.
"Beyond the entertainment value of what transpired over the past few days is a serious reminder of the intersection between machismo, misogyny, hostility to climate action and climate science, and the dank underworld of rightwing characters like Tate recruiting white boys and young men to their views."
The times they are a-changin'.

VM (Vicky) BrasseurI just walked into my local public library with a curiosity and walked out with a bag full of books to satisfy it.
And they say magic isn't real?
Treasure, use, and support your libraries, folks. They're the heart and soul of a civil society. ❤️

Quick Tip 💡 for all the #data #datascience #machinelearning #datadon folks on Mastodon,
✅ There is nothing cheesy and attention-seeking about using hashtags on Mastodon.
We don't have an algorithm that makes people whose posts we fav more visible so either someone boosts your post on their server or you use hashtags so as to be discoverable across instances.
✅ Use hashtags freely. With more folks joining Mastodon on newer instances, hashtags are your best friend 🤝
In the UN #Biodiversity Conference, #cop15, countries agreed to reach effective conservation and management of at least 30% of the world’s coastal areas and #oceans.
There is much work to be done.
