  2. Regardless of how the situation is analyzed or portrayed, Canada's and the world's future #electricity needs will grow. At the same time, the #planet is warming at an unprecedented rate. One important way to #mitigate this is #electrification, powered by #renewable #energy. #Canada #solar #wind

  4. I got hit with some rough words on this. Not going to respond directly to any of the hate.

    Would like to generally respond with these comments...

    The figures in the article are congruent with other presentations I've seen over the past 5-10 years. There is nothing really new here. I was frustrated because the "auto web image grab" in the original post had a bland photo of a seagull with some windmills out of focus in the background. I reposted it the way I did to highlight 👉 The #Data 👈 buried in the article.

    Other than that it is the same article. I suspect the bland post did not garner the same emotional response.

    This particular article is primarily focused on what is and can be done to 👉 #Mitigate👈 #birdkills due to these structures. I like that. 🙂

    One person said "everything must be solar" or similar with no evidence why they feel that way. On the subject of bird kills, there's real evidence that "solar farms" also kill #birds. One of many similar articles: sciencedirect.com/science/arti "A preliminary assessment of avian mortality at utility-scale solar energy facilities in the United States" The bird kill rate may be similar to wind.

    Re #Cats. I like cats. I've had cats as pets. I'm even allergic to cats. I do not own a cat at this time, but if I did I would seriously consider keeping it indoors most of the time. Spay, neuter, shots, etc. are also a must.

    It does seem that the #billionaires are completely okay with mass-scale #death of not just flora and fauna but also #humans

    The language emanating from various opponents of even minor actions to #mitigate #climatechange and #adapt to it seems to be hardening

    This is no longer about #countries but about classes and it is #global

    Dunno how we deal with this. I write stories with #plutocrats as villains and the poor as the protagonists.

  17. www.ft.com/content/e913... If anything folks in #climate have ALWAYS been bloody realistic about what failure to #mitigate would lead to. #Adaptation is terribly hard because #migration is goddamned "unpopular" and giving #aid to the popular is slightly less "unpopular" than that. #climatechange

    Green activists need to think ...

  23. - What are the implications of altered invertebrate and parasite dynamics for human #health, agriculture, and fisheries, and how can we #mitigate adverse effects while enhancing beneficial interactions?

    - How can #collaborations between biologists, chemists, engineers, and designers foster innovative #biomimicry solutions inspired by invertebrates?

  26. " #Carbon #Colonialism: #Oil -Rich #UAE Buys Up Large Swaths of #Africa for #CarbonCredits to Keep Polluting - As #DemocracyNow! broadcasts from #COP28 in #Dubai, we look at how the United Arab Emirates is using its vast oil money to buy up the rights to land in many #African countries in order to sell #carbon credits to major #polluters, a plan that critics characterize as a new form of colonialism. “After failing to #mitigate at the source,” wealthy polluters now “want to, basically, buy, on the cheap, African land,” says Power Shift Africa’s Mohamed Adow about wealthy nations’ failure to deliver on climate finance and turn to a “land grab” on the African continent. “What they’re doing is actually commodifying nature,” says Adow, who describes carbon credits as an “imaginary concept” amounting to “permits to pollute.”

  28. Sure there are fires on beautiful islands (#Maui, #Tenerife), #hurricanes headed to the desert SW US (#Hilary), and entire cities being evacuated due to #wildfires (#Yellowknife), but is your package from Amazon running late? That may be #ClimateChange as well - drought has lowered the level of water in the #PanamaCanal mandating ship's carry fewer containers and fewer ship's pass through the canal every day.

    This is what #adaptation looks like - not tech solutions, nor panel discussions, nor sweeping new laws; rather a slow interruption of our cultural norms perforated with complete upheaval of our lives. Adaptation will be multi-generational (meaning civilization will degrade over generations) if don't start to #mitigate and #multisolve soon.
