Sure, “keep it simple stupid” is a great rule, but oversimplify our analysis into these superficial, binary, feel-good explanations for things like “why is the world the way it is” and we end up stupider. It has never been just #gunsgermsandsteel… a lot of greed & denial too

#climatecrisis: the game in which we have to tell Americans to care about the death of innocent ppl in the #GlobalSouth (direct result of crimes we commit here in the North) not bc their deaths matter but bc are prelude to what will happen here too soon theguardian.com/world/2022/aug…

Investing on #EVs is cool, but you know what is even cooler? Investing HEAVILY on efficiency: more #publictransportation, #walkablecities, #electricbuses, #electrictrains , #sailassist and deal with these “frequent flyers” for climate sake! amp.theguardian.com/environment/20…

Not sure ‘bout you but I a have a problem w/ swapping one global transboundary pollution problem for another one that hurts the Global South even further. Is there a real path for sustainably mining of (or recovering) Li, Ni, Cu, Mn, Co at scales that match current demand?

Wed is double-duty day y’all: trace metals lab work during the day and co-host a radio show at night. Tune into KUCI 88.9 FM Irvine at 8 pm or listen to the show live from anywhere on our site earthcallingshow.org. My brilliant co-hosts and I talk about everything climate!
