The results have been called 'astonishing and far greater than would have been predicted'

"... but history shows us generally moving towards equality/liberty/justice."

I don't agree. In many ways we're worse off. There are many things that have been taken from us. It is not the simple measurement that you suggest and that argument is supported by many assumptions that have proven not to be correct, stories offered as empirical basis that are demonstrably not empirical, absurd baselines and comparisons, bad data, and so on.

"The timeline is in lifetimes though."

We just don't have time for that, even if I agreed that history is supposedly going in the right direction. The timeline for climate and environmental crises is much faster.

I just signed the petition asking to ban private jets. What about you?

“Not being transphobic or misogynistic or a harasser does not let you off the hook. That should be the norm in the first place. If you were truly radical, you would step up and help dismantle this whole thing. The bare minimum is to vocally express your withdrawal of or refusal to support others who are misogynistic, sexist.. & to stand against them until they stop.” https://bandilangitim.xyz/library/adrienne-cacatian-wrath-over-pride-en s/anarchist/hacker cc @drewdevault

If you get a severe vulnerability reported to your OSS project, it will probably depress you.

If you are a multi-billion dollar company securing customers internet connectivity, it seems not to.

Your OSS project is doing fine!😌

"Mountaintop removal for lithium to go into electric vehicle batteries is ecocide, just like mountaintop removal for coal mining is. I visited the site of yet another planned open pit lithium mine that is threatening the Great Basin — this time, in the state of Oregon. This site, about 15 miles north of Thacker Pass, is vital habitat for the Lahontan cutthroat trout, sage grouse, and countless other species — and it would be completely destroyed if the mine is built."

Solarpunk means abolishing cops allows a universal degrowth of industrialization.

Solarpunk is a praxis of anarchy where technology is no longer a social domination, but a coexistence with nature. Solarpunk is where technology becomes small-scaled individual tools for accessibility of health related purpose & entertainment.

We don't need flying cars with solar panel. We don't need cyberpunk with green plants on it. We just need a village operating small size of water, solar or wind engine. Imagine sitting on a bench with your laptop chilling while forests & biodiversity prosper across the land.

Imagine that.

As the #ClimateCrisis deepens, many scientists try to fly less, if at all. Supported by e.g. @StayGrounded_net, www.flyingless.org, and the 'green offices' of many universities.

The Kiel Institute however threatens to fire social scientist Gianluca Grimalda because he refuses to fly. Read & spread his story! 👇

Oil consumption per capita varies hugely from country to country.

The differences are staggering.
