I do think that a lot of people do not have any consciousness, or very low of it..


β€œIt makes me happy that there is such cohesion within society,” he said. β€œWhat troubles me a little is that we need such a catastrophe for it to occur.”

Trends in September #Arctic sea ice thickness over approximately the last four decades (yes, that shows thinning everywhere)... πŸ§ŠπŸ“‰

The fear built into all of us made this happen. We are becoming poor in our minds because we trade our lives for profit. We do not train our minds to see, to be in a state of awareness. We are blindβ€”a poor nation, with ugly values, illusions created by fear. We cannot face the fear we are running from; instead, we feed it with pleasure.

There is a dark, damp, wooded valley near where I have been camped, in the Kirroughtree forest, this week.

The wood is just how I always pictured Tolkien's Mirkwood, dark with all the trees and rocks covered in moss.

Quick look at August sea surface temperature trends across the #Arctic, which are warming nearly everywhere that sea ice is not found. We'll have an update on this in our next Arctic Report Card, which will be released in December.

Last year's summary: repository.library.noaa.gov/vi…

July 2024 data is now available for both Antarctic sea-ice thickness/volume (zacklabe.com/antarctic-sea-ice…) and global sea-ice volume (zacklabe.com/global-sea-ice-ex…) from GIOMAS.

Last month's global sea-ice volume has fallen to near-record low levels for the month of July in this dataset.

Here's your Monday ice update - #Arctic sea ice extent is currently the 4th lowest on record (JAXA data)...

β€’ about 340,000 kmΒ² below the 2010s mean
β€’ about 1,360,000 kmΒ² below the 2000s mean
β€’ about 2,310,000 kmΒ² below the 1990s mean
β€’ about 2,990,000 kmΒ² below the 1980s mean

I was on the Scientific American Science Quickly podcast, complaining (again) about SpaceX dropping space junk on my part of the world. If you're not tired of hearing this story over and over, here's another version: scientificamerican.com/podcast…

"A Close Encounter with SpaceX Debris Teaches an Astronomer about Space Junk"

in reply to Prof. Sam Lawler

if you dropped a sweet wrapper on the floor, you would be fined for littering, why should SpaceX be treated any different?
in reply to Paul Sutton

@zleap I tried! I called the "Turn in poachers and polluters" hotline. They wouldn't touch it!

Join me in tracking this year's #Arctic sea ice minimum!

Sea ice melt substantially slows every September as solar energy decreases and temperatures drop in the far north.

Earth Overshoot Day 1st August 2024.

In seven months we’ve used everything our planet can regenerate this year.

For the rest of the year we’ll deplete our children’s future.

Trends in July #Arctic sea ice concentration are more extensive and begin to surround the central Arctic, including areas like the Beaufort, Chukchi, East Siberian, Laptev, Kara, Barents Seas

[Sea ice concentration = fraction of ice-cover. More info: doi.org/10.1175/BAMS-D-23-0079…]

Due to anomalous conditions ongoing in the #Arctic and #Antarctic, the total extent of sea ice globally is a record low for the date and nearly *4 million square kilometers* below the 1981-2010 average...
