A kid's line drawing in pen on an envelope. The photo is rotated 90° so it is uppy-downy instead of side to side, which might have made it easier to decipher. It is a drawing of a flamingo, which is obvious to me, but maybe only bc i know the artist so well?

Wanna see something -- is it obvious to you what this drawing depicts?

Answer is in alt text. Don't give it away in the replies, please?

Map of the world showing long term mean trends in "Terrestrial Water Storage" or TWS. It shows most of the planet drying out a lot or a little with most of the increases in wetness happening in subsaharan Africa and southeast Asia.

More maps of the presence of extreme wetting, showing the change in four different time periods where it used to get wet along 20°N to 60°N and now it mostly gets wet at 0°S to 40°S (real sloppy estimation here on my part)

Wet Tropics is what they're saying about your planet in the science journals

Imagine a never ending shouting match between a housing bro and a nuke bro

I stg i'd even rather fight about cap and trade this stuff is so annoying

There are a lot of bigger problems in the world, but the one i am most often thankful for not having to deal with is the fight of NEM in California

Really telling how quickly transphobia became the single, all-encompassing prescription for all of the Democratic coalition’s ills in the minds of the white guy midwit pundit class.

:( wish i could

Stop saying "the clean energy revolution is inevitable" A little rant on a pet peeve in the climate space.

Long ago, a Big Green colleague said "Once clean energy is cheaper than fossil fuels, Republicans will HAVE to support it!" I said "No, Republicans will just ban clean energy." His jaw dropped - he'd never considered the possibility.

Here's @emorwee.bsky.social still doing that work, 17 years later

Embargo: Campbell’s Chunky Partners with Pabst Blue Ribbon for Bold New Soup Launch

i didn't agree to the embargo so i don't have many details. but the details i *do* have paint a pretty alarming picture.

If you're in the Bay, come to the SF Public Library on Tuesday! 5:30pm

For an ass-kicking?

If you are asking "why are Dems talking about Sweeney instead of egg prices?" you are either a) an absolutely hopeless mark for grifters, or b) one of those grifters.

For "Sweeney," substitute any one of the dozens of culture-war fights over the last decade. The *right* wants these, not the left.

Flyer for Netroots event titled "States Leading the Charge: Powering Climate Action Toward 2030" that will take place Saturday, August 9th.

Heading to Netroots? Don’t miss our panel on state climate action.

With the federal gov actively dismantling progress, state & local leadership is more urgent than ever. Learn how we win pro-climate majorities, pass bold policies & take on fossil fuel power through 2030

If we were actually planning the transition this would be exactly what we want. But since we’re not, it’s likely to become a whole bunch of “unforeseeable problems” that retrench fossil dependence.

Interesting new study from NY Fed compares how lenders treat unmapped flood risk (due to FEMA’s outdated maps). Big banks are lending less and charging more in risky areas. Non-banks and local banks are still originating the loans but then securitizing or moving them off their balance sheet

That's kinda cool -- sold out and website only partly works, but cool
