Starting in safe mode could be a temporary measure.

There may be relevant ideas here:

How to roll back to an older version of Android You can pick the method that works best for you

Also, "Google Pixel phones, for example, are known to have some of the best support for developers, making the downgrading process easier."

www.androidpolice.com/how-to-roll-...

Can you borrow a phone, or buy a cheap (perhaps secondhand) one, to put the sim card in?

Which national governments have done best on

a) informing people about the climate/habitat destruction/planetary boundary crises, and

b) suggesting/nudging appropriate action,

which other countries can learn from, in your opinion?

When someone gives you statistics, consider the words.

"Which climate scientists think that what you are

1) doing, and

2) telling the public, and

3) suggesting the public do,

are adequate?"

is perhaps a useful type of question to governments.

Or at least, please put "AI" in quotation marks.

This summary of the EAT-Lancet report reads as if humans are the only sentient beings.

What is the scientific basis for such a moral framework?

I suggest the word "killstock" instead of "livestock" where the intention is killing.

And governments encouraging cultural shifts towards attitudes and actions which increase fulfilment with less material/services consumption - including appreciation of nature, and creativity?

"Just because the research was published doesn’t mean its scientific pursuit is over. Science is a method, and an ongoing process, not a finished product."

If you refer to "artificial intelligence" or "AI", please explain in what way or ways you mean it is intelligent.

Proposal: Academic journals require plain-language summaries for non-specialists - at least attempting to explain like the readers are four years old.

Scientists Pinpoint Cause of Massive Sea Star Die-Offs, and Suspect a Link to Global Warming  - Inside Climate News Outbreaks from ocean pathogens that can be deadly to marine life and even threaten humans are more frequent in overheated waters.

Now we know why 6 billion sea stars in the Pacific turned to slime, and, as one can surmise, it's likely that global warming and ocean heatwaves played a big role. If we kill the oceans, things will NOT go well for us.

We don't know because we don't want to know.

Active not knowing.

Some ideas for people to consider:

Be like water.

Treat those who were conned, or who it seems may have been conned, with respect.

Don't get negative, get curious.

Avoid insults.

Precise or definite-sounding climate predictions intended to alert people, obscuring the uncertainty, may paradoxically reassure people into doing less because they do not understand the real inadequacy of science to predict complex systems.

Let's take a little time to consider what Trump and his allies may be doing behind the scenes, in the form for instance of instructions to agencies on surveillance.

As with climate disturbance, uncertainty provides a good argument to take more action, not less.

Should future EU money come with a provision that if misused for military purposes, a very large amount should be paid, not just the original amount?
