In an essay out today in the AGU journal Eos, @jeffcorbin, Meghan Duffy, @carlyziter and I discuss the urgent need to move beyond the "it's real, it's bad, it's us" approach to climate education. What is desperately needed instead are pathways towards climate action that engage and empower students, while helping to fight the immobility of climate despair.

Meet the Sheep!

In order to mitigate #ClimateChange & biodiversity loss, globally, we need to vastly reduce over grazing so as to #rewild the land.

But, if you try to explain to sheep the scientific evidence of why we must restore ecosystems, for various psychological reasons they don't listen.

Going by what they "baa!", #sheep don't understand that vegetation such as woodlands sequester CO2, whilst sheep generally emit methane & prevent tree growth.

At the risk of sounding like one of those open-source crazies... Mesa drivers will NEVER do this to you.

We argue over whether or not having an app hacks system in a fully open driver is sufficiently transparent. Don't want that driver hacking around games behind your back!

The notion of scraping your web history in a GPU driver would never occur to us. If someone proposed it, it'd get NAK'd so hard they'd be feeling it for a year.

Will we ever have solar panels that can be built sustainably? Will we ever have solar panels that can be assembled without a clean room?

Low Tech magazine posted a thing about Zinc/Antimony solar cells a few year ago, and I found that there were some schools working towards zinc cells more recently.

I've even seen some rumbling about nickel oxide cells, which look interesting.

If we could reasonably produce solar cells with materials and tools available to regular people or community workshops, makerspaces, etc it could legitimately change the world.

If your dream includes a cheeseburger and a gun, you’re having the American dream.
