A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020.
It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛

Oh, I haven't heard of that one. I thought Cloud City and Salt & Straw were the only two in that neighborhood.
Salt & Straw? Not a bad consolation ice cream.
Congrats, fellas!
Map showing the change in average winter temperature in degrees Fahrenheit by county for the contiguous United States from 1970 to 2025. Nearly all areas are warming.
Temperatures have warmed across the contiguous United States over the last five decades or so during the months of December through February (a rapidly warming season)...

Got some snow up here on Monday, and it felt like a flashback to the 80's or 90's. Winters here are so mild now.
WE TRULY LOVE TO SEE IT
As Governor Shapiro says, it's a false choice between a healthy environment and our economy. #RGGI delivers both—and sacrificing climate action to end the budget impasse would be shortsighted. More here: penncapital-star.com/energy-envir...
Heat map-style graphic showing monthly air temperature rankings in the Arctic at the 925 hPa level for each month from January 1979 to October 2025. There is a long-term warming trend evident in each month. Blue shading is shown for colder months, and red shading is shown for warmer months. A yellow number is shown for each grid box to display the actual temperature ranking. October 2025 was the 4th warmest October on record.
Not every month will set a new record, but the warming trend is obvious. This graphic shows #Arctic air temperature rank by month over the satellite era - now updated through October 2025... 🧪

Okay, yes, humanity did not enact the single best possible outcome in response to the single worst problem we have ever faced as a species
In no way was it wrong to try, and in no way is it wrong to continue trying to jam a wrench in the greedy fossil fuel economy. Everything is still on the table
#RenewableEnergy investment should come from defence budgets, say retired military leaders
Former European officers say spending on low-carbon power would make nations more resilient to threats from potential aggressors.

Wonder if this would work in the Strip.
Did anyone push back on his comments?
Wasn't able to attend today. Thanks for sharing all of this!
OK, here we go...

@justinjackson.ca listening to your Oct 6th episode’s discussion about good social networks being made of nerds. If that was the case, mastodon would be scratching that itch. I think influencer culture has ruined it. People weren’t trying to make a career of their food pictures on early twitter
Switched web hosts this morning. Adapterdesign.com is now powered by solar.
Map showing the average first freeze date across the contiguous United States. Data is from RCC ACIS, and the graphic was created by Climate Central.
This morning was the first frost and freeze for many across the Northeast. As a snow/winter fan, I am very excited! 🥶
Check out @climatecentral.org's latest analysis this week on how the first freeze is getting later due to climate change across CONUS: www.climatecentral.org/climate-matt...
Avocado chocolate pudding was a revelation.
I subscribed to the print edition of The Economist and Harpers to do this, and failed hard.
