To all the reply guys saying how renewables are a terrible idea. I hate to break it to you but >90% of new generation capacity built is now renewable energy, mainly solar & wind. Data from @irena-official.bsky.social

Got my tickets 🎟️ Going to Devon Island this August Furthest North I’ll have been in Canada 🇨🇦 Pretty excited! 🥳 Where’s my space suit? 🚀

Is there a more Canadian scene on a commute home?

The Rehearsal is a genius and amazing show. Just getting into season 2, and so the aviation theme is an extra dose of awesome.

Will this help NA’s obesity epidemic?

Just like has been predicted for years and years.

Shouldn’t Russia just have *all the* sanctions by now?

What year of 1930s Germany does everyone think the US is in right now?

I am sorry Ukraine, you deserve better. Denmark & the EU are not fairweather allies and stand with you

Took a picture of a different Buffalo today 😍 One of Buffalo Airways C-46 cargo aircraft being loaded in Yellowknife, NWT. WWII era plane still going strong and looking good!

Here’s a really nice big boy I saw today south of Behchoko, Northwest Territories.

For those of you who like nice aeroplanes, here is a *very* nice Turbo Beaver in Yellowknife 😍

A true joke of a country it has become.

I’m rooting for you

Here are some nice reflection in a northern peatland influenced by permafrost thaw.

I'm a big fan of progressive annual taxation and tiered licensing on vehicles based on weight, size, and efficiency (l or kWh/100km). Want a big vehicle? Great. Pay for it, and be trained for it. The taxation is intended to offset the substantial social costs of large and inefficient vehicles.

One of the reasons I love fieldwork is the calming feeling of being more connected with nature. Appreciating an osprey fly noisily around her nest, ducks tending their eggs quietly on the edge of a pond, and the tiny flora found in boreal peatlands. #fieldwork

Love our fieldwork crew 👌 11/10

Happy #fieldwork Friday, here’s a rare shot of Doctorum Permafrostum in the wild, and some nice little flowers in a peatland where we installed a new ground temperature measurement array.

Today we installed two shallow groundwater wells in permafrost areas burned by the 2023 wildfires near Yellowknife. A video of our Northwest Territories Geological Survey colleague N. Weiss being a Master Drill Sergeant #fieldwork #permafrost

Weekend meditations. Very windy, 100yds. Tikka T3x Super Varmint in .223 with Steiner Predator 4s 4-16X optic.

This will go down in history and there will be movies about it. www.bbc.com/news/live/cg...

So the next step is a Vatican City world tour team?

Ok the new pope is cool. Met and shook hands with the riders from the Giro d’Italia and addressed the peloton in the middle of the final stage. Wild! #cycling #giro
