Hard to not feel bitter.
Even as the world’s most important climate conference gets captured by Big Oil later this month.
Working outside can lead to both a-ha moments and oh-shit moments

Excited to launch @terradotdo in...
Such an important point from @Singh10Seema on how under-researched India's heat vulnerability maps are

Climate is politics.
And to win the politics, just like startups, timing the market right is often everything.
Our biggest ever cohort just ended. It also had our highest ever NPS at 86!
I love @terradotdo team ❤️ and the incredible climate learning & doing community they create.
Every. Single. Time 🙏🏽

That sounds about right from my experience.
Genuine Q to folks thinking abt career paths & deciding to invest other people’s money…
In addition to ROI, does “where-I’m-needed-most” matter to you? Why/not?
.@amitvarma, your episode w @puram_politics and the meandering discourse on his life sadly just illustrated your guest’s point:
Sometimes it’s just better to talk about the ideas than the person behind it 😏
Love the podcast...
Back to solving climate change I guess 💪🏽

I wrote a letter to my daughter on what she should pay attention to among all the millions of things that happened in 2022.
What would you tell your kids?

Astonishing how young the key figures in these revolutions were, even though our mental images of them are as older men.
Quantum physics in 1925-26:
Heisenberg 24
Pauli 25
Oppenheimer 21
Schrödinger 38
American Revolution in 1776:
James Madison 25

Chatting at home about what a joke voice AIs like Alexa are in today’s chatGPT world.
Right on cue, Alexa pipes up w a *joke: “What happened when a Jedi kissed a toad” 🐸🤦🏻♂️
Ugh.
“Star Warts” btw.
That’s it. All my doubts about @terradotdo have now been put to rest.
Thanks http://chat.openai.com 🤯
