Astronomers have found that Earth is the only liveable planet any of us can live on. There might be another planet very, very far away. The planet is unfortunately too far away, so will not be an alternative for humans to live on. We only have this planet - so we better make the most of it.

Also it is REALLY key that Rowling is very much alive and is spending all her time and vast sums of money trying to oppress trans people during a massive global right-wing power grab: this does make her worse than other problematic authors, in my opinion.

Yet another way for microplastics to get into the food chain – by getting into leaves via the air. When the fossil fuel industry says "we'll always extract oil because we'll always need plastics," remember that that's not without consequences either. 🧪 🌎 🛢️ 💨 🍃 🌾 🥬 🥗 www.nature.com/articles/d41...

"Tipping points" are "thresholds where a small additional change in global warming will cause [major biophysical systems] to irreversibly shift into a new state." Cascading tipping points occur when crossing one threshold triggers another, & so on. We should be extremely scared of these. So...

At a GOP town hall last night, heckling from constituents was apparently too much to handle—so they used police force and even stun guns on their own constituents. What are they so afraid of? Someone disagreeing with their views?

Do climate models allow us to understand such an event, or have we entered a new climate regime? We attempted to answer these questions in this study: rdcu.be/eh0e8 1/14
