I really like Tycho. And, having been to Red Rocks before (not for a concert unfortunately) I was very keen to check out this DJ set on SoundCloud. I found it back in October on Kottke.org which is a treasure trove of creative goodies from around the web.
With spring around the corner I love to listen to this piece when I am going on a walk outside.
We just saw plenty of green-washing here in Germany prior to the election on 26 September. And, this morning I am running into this here tweet.
Don’t tell me you are committed to net-zero 2050.
Tell me how you plan to reduce emissions by at least 3% of their current value during this year, next year, and every year after that until you actually get to zero.
With a mere 0.022 °C behind 2016 temperatures, 2020 has been the 2nd hottest year according to Berkeley Earth.
The full report has been posted on the Berkeley Earth website today. Especially temperatures in the Arctic have been extraordinarily hot – which has also led to the Northeast Passage having been passable for a record 112 days. As the the October 2020 Temperature Update shows, prior to 1990 most years the Northeast Passage was not passible for even a single day of the year!
Robert Rohde, the author of both reports, is @RARohde on Twitter. I enjoy following his thoughts, stats, and intuitive graphics on Climate Research and Covid-19.
