I wanted to try and figure out how Neil Gorsuch concluded that 'Pride Puppy', an ABCs book about a lost dog at a pride parade that he insists he read, exposes kids to "bondage" and "sex workers." The answers are somehow even dumber than you can imagine. A brief thread:

Incredible news! 89% of the global public want more climate action, but don't realise they're part of a huge and potentially powerful majority. #The89Percent aims to fix that and motivate climate delayer* politicians to up their game. Well done @dpcarrington.bsky.social & all involved 🧵 1/3...

A 'data transfer software error' apparently was the reason no Mauna Loa CO2 data was posted for 5 days. A deep sigh of relief, grateful to see this back! Next stop, 431 ppm. Thanks @anderbill.bsky.social for the answer.

There seem to be some people who have adopted ideas and attitudes from the Middle Ages, wanting to take the world back to that distant past when fear and ignorance ruled - namely those named in this article. Why do they want to go back to a time when life was not so fun? Want the Handmaid's Tale?

"We are not faced with two separate crises, one environmental and the other social, but one crisis which is both social and environmental. The poor and the earth are crying out." Pope Francis reshaped the global climate conversation. @trufahey.bsky.social wrote about his advocacy way back in 2015:

The majority of people —56% in the US!—are worried about climate change, but not activated. Why not? Most feel helpless, hopeless, and don't know what to do. So more fear won't activate them. Rather, knowing what to do—and being invited to do it—will. Where to start? With a conversation today. 🧵

I'm giving up working with the CARRA data @copernicusecmwf.bsky.social because I have to download 3-hr data on a Lambert conformal grid with 789 x 989 grid points. Little succes with CDO to merge earlier and later parts. Takes too long to compute monthly means. Actually, quite dissappointed.
