Real Climate Solutions Are Beneath Us - Eos It’s time to accept that durable subsurface carbon storage, along with emissions reductions, must be part of the plan to mitigate the effects of climate change—and geoscience must play a central role.

Drastically reducing CO2 emissions should be humanity’s first priority for mitigating climate change, but at this point, the scale of mitigation needed goes beyond reducing annual emissions, says @peterreiners.bsky.social. eos.org/opinions/rea...

Chubby Gila Monster on gravel.

My doggo made a friend in the backyard today. Lots of dramatic hissing. I’ve probably met them before but I haven’t memorized the patterns yet. April/May is prime Gila Monster time!

View to south-southwest on west flank of Huachuca Mtns, showing beautiful valleys, ridges, and wildlife habitat about to be idiotically mangled by an unnecessarily massive and wildlife-impenetrable border wall.

West side of Huachuca Mtns. See the relatively modest border fence, one of the last places allowing wildlife crossings between Arizona and Mexico (about 1/3 of way from bottom of pic)? Enjoy because it’s about to be replaced with a massive militarized, idiotic, and environmentally devastating wall.

Ladder inscribed in 1957 by the Institute for Atmospheric Physics at the University of Arizona, devoted to cloud seeding research (!) and the predecessor to the Department of Atmospheric Sciences.

Lab archeology: Found this beautifully inscribed ladder from July 1957, belonging to the Institute for Atmospheric Physics (azmemory.azlibrary.gov/nodes/view/9...), which was devoted to research on cloud seeding. Also happened in July 1957: Paul McCartney meets John Lennon; start of IGY.

Dewy dragonfly on Creosote bush, early morning.

Beautiful dewy desert morning.

Teddybear cholla in the late afternoon sun, a few days past solstice, with the Santa Catalinas in the background.

For my first Bluesky post: backyard on a nice evening.
