“This short-sighted move shows a disregard for science and the well-being of people around the world, including Americans, who are already losing their homes, livelihoods, and loved ones as a result of climate change." -- @globalecoguy.bsky.social www.scientificamerican.com/article/why-...

Takes a day longer and about 200 Euro more for the tx and buffer overnight in Hamburg at the cabin hotel Cab20 close to the station. Quiet, clean and economical, pro tip by @seatsixtyone.bsky.social.

Dovrefjell tiner fra innsiden Norske og europeiske høyfjell tiner raskt - fra innsida. Permafrost som er mange tusen år gammel varmes opp raskt på grunn av klimaendringene.

Dramatisk oppvarming av norske fjell. Snøfonner som blir borte og breer som krymper er synlige tegn, men tining av permafrost er vanskeligere å legge merke til før fjellene begynner å rase. Dette skjer i Alpene, vi kommer til å merke det her også www.nrk.no/norge/ny-for...

love this @marcuscollier.bsky.social, they have their stories to share and I am always taking pictures of stone walls both when travelling in Ireland and here in Norway. Although my family thinks I am crazy.

Would also be interesting to incorporate scale to explore how this informs changes in behaviour. I suppose people care most about their own health & costs, maybe nutrition. Land and water use are more regional with GHGs global. Would these nuances in scale change the MCA?

Very interesting study. Nice documentaion that beans and peas come out as winners, high protein and macro-nutrients, unprocessed (rather than ultraprocessed meat substitutes), and better for the environment and your pocket book.

Beautiful calender! Tried to order, unfortunately no shipping to Norway.

Will definately be sharing these with my colleagues at #NGI - integrating the temperal and spatial scale changes into modelling the function of forests and roots on slope stability, another layer of complexity as landslide hazard increasing with increasing percipitation.

Uplifting considering the immensity of the challenges we face and that although we have become very good at estimating temperature increases «we have systemically underestimated climate change impacts»
