Population estimates show there are only 51 #Rice’s whales remaining. #NOAA says the 2010 #DeepwaterHorizon spill exposed about half of its habitat causing a population decline of up to 22% and leaving lasting impacts on reproduction and growth. 🐋 #SixthExtinction

I absolutely hate, hate, HATE how software environments are often called "ecosystems".
An ecosystem is a living, organic structure on a living planet (more specifically, Earth, since we haven't found any other living planets yet), made from all kinds of organisms -- bacteria, archaea, fungi, all […]
“In 2018, he told The Guardian that an unsustainable focus on “perpetual growth” — leading to climate change and loss of biodiversity — meant that the collapse of civilization was “a near certainty in the next few decades.” And it’s being accelerated by this unnecessary war. #SixthExtinction
Not published yet, but we are finding the same punchline to our long-term monitoring of rocky intertidal ecosystems in the northeast Pacific.

"Since 1950 there has been a 40% diminishment of all phytoplankton across the world's seas. Phytoplankton provides 70% of the oxygen we breathe; sequesters enormous amounts of CO2." -- Captain Paul Watson

The climate goals are dead. The only way this planet stays below +2°C (or simply +2K) warming is if we can somehow artificially cool it with aerosol injection, and if we suddenly stop putting aerosols into our atmosphere, global warming will simply resume, so unless we can somehow remove a […]

Today I learned about "climate-hushing."

The forests of the Amazon and Andes are changing: warmer, dryer places are losing diversity; possible climate refugia gain diversity; and the overall transitions across the forest are complex.

From a paleobiologist's perspective, this is a short-term deterioration that will cause species extinctions and ecosystem instability and, if unchecked, in the long-term will lead to a far greater collapse.
We still have time to save the world if we choose to.

Solution: stop eating #sentient beings. Whether loss of fresh water, #climate, & 8 other planetary boundaries, nearly all that ails us is linked to #animalAg which is reason 4 #SixthExtinction (we have destroyed 65 million yrs of evolution). Go #vegan #rewild
Is this a conflation of AI finance and AI technology? Seems like the tech is the genie out of the bottle. And why wouldn't AI perceive Homo Sapiens as a threat? Look what the species has done to the planet... #SuperAI #ClimateChange #SixthExtinction
It's not just how high temperature or greenhouse gas emissions are rising, but how fast - our emissions and global warming exceed the rate of any time in the Earth's past.
Most species can't adapt fast enough and will go extinct, including those we rely on.

We're doing it, slowly but surely. Don't give up even when parts of the world give up. Let's each leave the world a little better place than when we came into it. Keep up the good fight, colleagues.

People talk about #degrowth as if it were something that we can decide to do or not.
Bollocks!
The economy _will_ shrink no matter what we do. We have exceeded the planetary growth limits, the current size of the world economy--the real, actual existing economy of extraction, refinement […]
