Looking forward to this year’s Bioneers conference in Berkeley. EarthLight, the magazine I edited was a media sponsor of this conference for nearly a decade. They are still visionary, diverse, young, full of energy and determination to face the crises facing us.

I think it is wrong to dismiss #cop27 as "just" a talking shop. I don't think anyone really believes just talking it through will solve the #climatecrsis . It is a symbolic act, symbols matter in #politics and #environmentalism is no different. It is a way for us to demonstrate that this matters as a species.

ADVISORY: We are on the brink of a completely altered world.

Our 2022 emissions report card (https://www.unep.org/resources/emissions-gap-report-2022) is telling us that we are completely off track to avert a catastrophic global climatic destabilisation event with unknown consequences. Currently the projection is that we are on track for 2.8° of warming.

Why does this matter?

The Biggest Climate Bill of Your Life - But What does it DO!?

Might just have made possible a slim chance of hope for the human race.

Tldr:us congress passed a bill into law that makes decarbonization and transition to renewables in the USA possable and endorses the transition with large subsidies

For example: I live in #Vancouver, Canada, which is actually a really good case study of this. #Vancouver and its PNW neighbours like #Seattle are famous for heavy rain almost nonstop in the autumn and winter, but are also prone to long stretches of continuous sun and drought in the summer, which are only getting worse with the #climatecrsis. It's also pretty temperate in the winter, which results in a VERY stark increase in energy consumption in the summer.
