Great News!

The production of 'X years left to save the world' messages is now at a record high!

If current trends continue, we should still have 'X years left' well into the second half of the 21st century!

We all have 'two years to save the world' says UN Climate Change climate chief Simon Stiell

🚨Great new research on European attitudes to flying More in Common

Key findings:
✈️Most would fly MORE if they could
😳Flight shame is a minority view
👎People don't trust airlines on climate
💷Age+income, not climate concern, drive flying behaviour

Great work Dan Visioni 🦔! New GeoMIP SRM experiment has been endorsed as a #CMIP7 Fast Track experiment

You can now install fair from conda-forge instead of my own amateurish anaconda channel!

I wrote about some previous results that showed the same thing in my substack post:

'The results are in: discussing solar geoengineering doesn't undermine emissions cuts'

A great discussion with my former PhD mentor on one of my favorite podcasts!
And always super interesting to hear about the cloudlab.ethz.ch project

Remember the first time you used Google search? It was like magic. After years of progressively worsening search quality from Altavista and Yahoo, Google was literally stunning, a gateway to the very best things on the internet.

Should the UWash / MCB outdoor experiments have been announced in advance?

We recorded our first in-person interview for @chalclimate with Ulrike Lohmann to discuss:
- Aerosol-cloud interactions
- Mixed Phase Cloud Thinning (a new SRM idea)
- The CloudLab project
- The first outdoor SRM experiment in Europe

Interestingly symmetric results on the possible scale of Make Sunsets sulphate releases. Some see it being small (less than 10 tons) and an equal number see it being huge (>10 Mt).

Let's see....

OK, apparently my numbers were too low in my first question.

How much Sulphur will Make Sunsets release into the stratosphere in total over the lifespan of the company?
