  1. It's Ginger Cat Appreciation Day! "She contacted ME from the shelter with her Iams cat food model headshot." "Her actual photos make AI self-aware of its own jealousy." "When she appears on a TV that doesn't work, it's the highest-rated program on television." "Shylo is... the most interesting cat in the world." "I don't always sleep, but when I do, I sleep 23 hours per day. Stay ginger cat, my friends."

  6. Nice paper on how optimistic/pessimistic models underlying the #IPCC WG3 assessments are regarding their assumptions on coal with CCS/renewables:
    iopscience.iop.org/article/10.

    „The overall pattern that emerges shows that, on average, #IAMS expect growth in renewables to fall to less that half of their recent pace and #CCS to more than double from its current best estimate.”

  7. Fantastic day with the #iClimate crew from @AarhusUni at their annual meeting . A genuinely interdisciplinary #Climate group with talks covering #Energy grids and how to account for #Renewables in #IAMs, how to encourage more people in #FlyingLess plus #palaeoclimate the state of #Arctic #SeaIce + #methane #aerosols #biodiversity and the #Economics of #climateadaptation

    They're doing some really great #Science + #SocialScience research. Go check them out.

  8. Interesting to see scholar use PPT template that looks like a stone tablet. Even though presentation is somewhat historical, doesn't seem to be ironic...

  9. These models are used to compare reducing emissions options (#mitigation) given specific policy goals (e.g., limiting warming to 1.5°C). In contrast to cost-benefit #IAMs, they do *not* include a feedback from temperature change on population or economy (GDP).

    The only effect on GDP are costs from #ClimatePolicy - benefits from avoiding flooding or fires are ignored *by assumption*.
    It's a one-way street: #population & #GDP to baseline-vs-mitigation scenarios (i.e., different #warming levels).

  10. #Pets food is big business. In 2018, pet owners in the USA alone spent over thirty-billion dollars on food for their animal companions.

  15. @daniel_huppmann @anlomedad_real This idea of a formal "requirement" for a specific modelling approach is highly problematic in multiple ways. That some blessing by a few self-appointed gurus from the global North is required rather emphasizes the problems with #IAMs than resolving them.
