I have a very bad feeling about this...

I wanted to offer some thoughts on the Gates climate memo that has been circulating this week. While I can't directly speak for others, I can say that my own response is one of dismay & deep frustration (and that this view is shared by many climate/Earth scientists). [1/n]

Climate Change:

It's real.

It's us.

It's serious - and already dangerous.

But there are solutions.

The science is clear: the faster we cut emissions, the less suffering we will cause, and the better off we'll all be.

These are the key facts everyone needs to know about climate change, according to @yaleclimatecomm.bsky.social.

I shared this post across 7 different social media platforms, including FB, LI, Mastodon, Threads, X and Twitter both pre-and post-Musk.

Here's how their engagement stacked up. 🧵

“Graphic showing Reform UK’s deputy leader Richard Tice in a blue suit speaking, with the word ‘CLOSED!’ in bold red and white text across the image. Behind him, faded images depict a hospital corridor and healthcare workers. The Green Party logo and imprint appear at the bottom.”

Reform UK want to take public spending down to 35% of GDP — that’s a £275 billion cut, the equivalent of shutting down the NHS.

The Green Party knows the only way to rebuild our communities is by investing in our public services, not running them down and flogging them off to the private sector.

Sanity says: “if there is a risk that the AMOC is weakening and heading towards a tipping point, we need to act on that (just like with other major risks). This is not an issue where we can afford to wait until we are certain, or pretend it’s just an academic discussion without major consequences.”

Great interview of climate scientist Mike Mann and virologist Peter Hotez on the war on science by special interest groups. My colleague Mann endured vicious attacks after his pioneering (and solidly confirmed) ‘hockey stick’ curve of #globalwarming.

The climate movement’s biggest weakness What the climate movement is getting dead wrong.

Meat is a blind spot for people who care about climate. When I used to have dinner with my colleague Wally Broecker, the climate scientist who coined the term “global warming”, he would always order a steak.

Why the federal government is making climate data disappear Under Trump, climate denial has given way to something even more dangerous: climate erasure.

If you're a @drilledmedia.bsky.social listener you know I think social scientists are key sources if we want to understand why governments haven't acted on climate.
