All probationary federal employees at NOAA’s EMC that’s responsible for keeping all US weather model systems running have been fired with 1 hours notice. And that includes me and colleagues. We will not go quietly because we care about the NOAA mission to protect the public.

Technology is going to save the day, make behaviour change and emissions cuts unnecessary. Oh yes. A 23 yr old announcement...

February 27, 2002 – an embarrassing “technology partnership” is launched (as Kyoto spoiler attempt) allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/26/f...

It's okay everyone. I have great news. I have done it. I present to you ... The greatest cat photo ever.

22 yrs ago today, (Feb 25, 2003) – Australian Treasury says “the current approach to domestic emissions mitigation is not a sustainable long term approach, with its heavy reliance on spending programs, prescriptive regulation and ‘picking winners’”. allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/24/f...

13 years ago today the "Campaign to Repeal the Climate Change Act" holds a meeting. US scientist Richard Lindzen gives an extremely misleading presentation. From it, the usual newspaper columns spouting nonsense... allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/22/f...

On this day 21 years ago (Feb 21, 2004) a big industry conference in Queensland, all about making coal clean and green began. Such a LOT of progress in the following decades... allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/20/f...

No mention in this article, about climate change hitting the Mediterannean area particularly hard, of the shipping emissions rule coming into effect on 1st May 2025 and likely to give rise to higher temperatures still (correct, @leonsimons.bsky.social?)

Interview with Professor Kevin Anderson pt 3- aviation and its technobabble. ‘sustainable aviation fuel and electric planes.’ These cannot deliver on scale and in timeline for the current aviation, let alone the growth in aviation.” allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/20/i...

This quote is from an interview I conducted with Kevin last month, before we presented on climate history and science in Glossop. Relevant portion here - allouryesterdays.info/2025/02/20/i...

HSBC has delayed its net zero target by 20 years, until 2050.

FYI- You don’t have to be an “environmentalist” to care about climate change’s effects. If you’re a living organism - human, seagull, moquito, bacteria, octopus - your home, life, & future are impacted. Is the US the only large country that’s *still* denying climate change (& the metric system)?

You need to listen to @olufemiotaiwo.bsky.social being asked good questions on this podcast by Gracie Mae Bradley on this podcast, and giving extremely thought-provoking and cogent answers. Nails some of the pathologies on the "left" with humour and compassion... www.plutobooks.com/blog/podcast...

Stay tuned for part 3 tmrw, where in his customary style Kevin equivocates about aviation, a third runway at Heathrow, and the decisions being made by politicians...
