  11. The Westport Observatory's USGS seismic equipment picked up the big M 7.5 earthquake near Neiafu, Tonga this morning. Want to know more about earthquakes — particularly those here in New England? Alan Kafka visits us in April to talk about them!

  13. #ScienceTalk #climate #ClimateScience #EnergySecurity #RenewableEnergy #technology "We're going to need to pay more attention to wind" (If one of the blades is painted black, birds avoid them. Birds are clever :)

    "We're going to need to pay more attention to wind"

    (no, they are NOT bird cemeteries.
    I personally only know of one (1) dead bird found under a wind turbine, and that one was hit dead by a car and placed under the turbine by an anti-windpower activist -.-
    Also, if one of the blades is painted black, birds avoid them. Birds are not dumb :)

    Dr. #MuhammadIttefaq interviews Dr. #GlenPeters

    Again, on repeat: "reducing emissions is by far the cheapest and easiest way to get emissions down as opposed to doing this really complex and difficult expensive stuff of removing it once you've put it there."

    Dr. #MuhammadIttefaq #short with Dr. #DanielSwain

    "My job is to scare the pants off of people, but to do so constructively in a way that actually improves the path we're on. It's critically important to be honest about where we are and also the uncertainties regarding where we're heading."

    On solar power: "People would do that because they are economically driven that way."
    "Is it enough? No."
    (We also need #EmissionReduction and #srm )

    On #geoengineering: "Relative risk evaluation."
    "We need to get started and then improve the approach over time. It's well less risky then going forward without doing that."
