Yes buddy, that’s your Mother Earth. Isn’t she beautiful?

"The electricity sector is on track to deliver Australia’s entire Paris emissions reduction targets five years early, in 2025... Remarkably, the net cost is zero because expensive fossil fuels are being replaced by cheaper renewables." lowyinstitute.org/the-interprete…

Scientists have obtained the first image of a black hole, using Event Horizon Telescope observations of the center of the galaxy M87. The image shows a bright ring formed as light bends in the intense gravity around a black hole that is 6.5 billion times more massive than the Sun

This exxonmobile chart from 1982 predicted that in 2019 our atmospheric CO2 level would reach about 415 parts per million, raising the global temperature roughly 0.9 degrees C. Update: The world crossed the 415 ppm threshold this week and broke 0.9 degrees C in 2017 1/

First sucessful flight of the technology that will make humans a multiplanetary species?

In 2017, assuming an energy system running on 100% renewables (solar, wind and hydro) was considered frivolous by most 'experts'. In 2017 Mark Z. Jacobson was strongly condemned after he quantified a possible 100% RE route for the USA. But in 2018 the dam broke! (thread)

This is important. Professor Will Steffen: "Unfortunately this is the way 99.9% of the time scientists present projections for the future. You got to do it another way… There aren’t many scientists who think we will actually meet the 1.5°C target." [THREAD 6/13]

10 years ago science showed there are 15 known Earth tipping elements that regulate the state of the Planet. Today we present findings that 9 of these 15 systems are on the move. There is now scientific support for declaring a state of Planetary Emergency nature.com/articles/d4158…

The WHO just updated its page on how COVID-19 transmits. Those few sentences on aerosols represent one of the most crucial scientific advances of the pandemic. My NYT piece on the century-long history of the error, the year of delay—and what it means now. nytimes.com/2021/05/07/opi…

Den nye Europeiske plattformstudien for COVID-19 og fremtidige pandemier, EU-SolidAct, har nå startet å inkludere pasienter ved norske sykehus. Studien skal gå i 15 land og ledes av OUS. bit.ly/EU_SolidAct / EU-SolidAct / ECRIN / Inserm/ EU Science & Innovation 🇪🇺

"The universe is probably littered with the one-planet graves of cultures which made the sensible economic decision that there's no good reason to go into space--each discovered, studied, and remembered by the ones who made the irrational decision."

Under NASA Artemis, we’re going back to the Moon. This is why. 🌙
