Protecting (and restoring) peatlands is a powerful climate solution.
Check it out!
Peatlands cover just 3โ4% of Earth's land, yet they store twice the carbon of all the world's forests combined. Protecting peatlands is rated an Emergency Brake climate solution, one of the fastest-acting tools we have.

One of the best steps toward doing something about it is to work to understand whatโs going on. #Drawdown is a great starting point for making conversations that can make a difference.
The name Drawdown comes from our NYT best selling coffee table book, which outlines 100 climate solutions.
The name sometimes, unfortunately, gets confused with carbon removal, but it really is about just stopping climate change. And, as you say, thatโs almost entirely about cutting emissions.

This is just wrong.
I donโt mind grammar checks and basic writing feedback, but impersonating the writing advice of living and dead people is just gross.
Letโs keep our editors *human* please.
I'm a sucker for really good interactive science visualizations.
Check out this one that lets you explore a map of the known universe. It's beautiful, engaging, and very well done.

Good. Noem is out.
But just how corrupt do you have to be for Trump to fire you for unseemly conduct?
IF its training prioritized factual accuracy and helping people rehumanize and connect, it could provide social benefit.
Instead it's trained to provide a facsimile of truthiness as it attempts to addict users to prefer using it over using their own minds and/or collaborating with others.
So, no.
Extremely well said. Thank you.

p.s. Sure, there are some very helpful algorithms out there for better medical imaging, editing photos, checking your code and writing, etc.
I donโt mean that stuff.
I mean things like ChatGPT, Claude, etc? Doesnโt it clearly do more harm than good for the world?
Iโm curious: Can anyone give me an honest reason why generative AI is, net net, good for society?
I honestly canโt see a reason why it is.
Can someone give me a genuine case of why the benefits outweigh the tremendous harms?

Many of the solutions with the biggest promise for curbing climate change also protect habitats.
These are just some of the solutions that do both:
๐ณ Protect Forests
๐ถ Improve Transportation
๐ฑ Improve Nutrient Management

Tired of climate advice that makes you feel guilty, overwhelmed, or like you'll never do enough? SHIFT was built differently.

On top of everything else, oil and gas prices are going to spike because of Trumpโs war in Iran.
But guess what doesnโt get disrupted by wars?
Renewable energy. Solar. Wind. Geothermal. Storage.
