#Wildfires, #hurricanes and #heat: The U.S. is getting hit by #extremeweather from all sides
#ClimateScientists say it’s an all-too-real look at how #globalwarming increases the risks — and consequences — of the deadly events. https://www.nbcnews.com/science/science-news/wildfires-hurricanes-heat-extreme-weather-bombards-us-rcna100950 #ClimateCrisis

Scientist Rebellion Germany on Instagram: ""In 2015, investigative journalists discovered internal company memos indicating that the oil company @ExxonMobil has known since the late 1970s that its fossil fuel products could lead to #GlobalWarming with «dramatic environmental effects before the year 2050.»" "#Exxon's internal documents, as well as peer-reviewed studies published by Exxon and ExxonMobil Corp scientists, overwhelmingly acknowledged that #ClimatChange is real and human-caused.

@peterdutoit i think what #climatescientists should do now is a #greatresignation. Stop communicating completely, some may (and have already) consider a career change. As we all know, it’s #jobdone for them and there’s nothing left to say. In fact keeping on talking is detrimental to #climateaction, as it is used by #fossilfuels lobbies to keep on talking and do nothing. I think urgent action is now in #resilience, #community-led lofi #engineering solutions.

It’s never been easier to predict the #future, you just need to listen to what #climatescientists have been screaming about for the past several years…

#Climatescientists seem to really like using ACC to abbreviate different things: Antarctic Circumpolar Current, Anomaly Correlation Coefficient, Anthropogenic Climate Change, Abrupt Climate Change.

It’s not unlikely to want to use all these ACCs in the same paper … and compete for the most confusing title 🤔

@PythonLinks Setting aside James Cameron, who built his own planet years ago, I feel like our individual strengths can only go so far.

There are quite a number of us who have experience organizing within our communities and beyond. That part (as communities) we know how to do. We don't always get it right, but we have the know-how, and the best organizing often emerges as a crisis bears down.

What we are missing is more like a shared (and trusted) set of clear and achievable priorities: what are the highest-value goals we (in our particular community) might organize toward?

That's where we need something I have not seen - a simple set of priorities scored by #climateScientists, with approximate costs provided by #engineers (and whoever else is needed) and overall "value" to the climate fight scored by #economists and potentially political economists.

That sort of tool will have issues (e.g., how do you weigh the climate impact vs community impact due to poisoning of a leaking oil well), but also, if it is well-conceived and well-executed, incredible power to enable a decentralized movement to maximize our collective impact - through independent, creative, decentralized organizing.

A lot of #climatescientists I know either sympathize with peaceful disruptive #climateactivism
or take direct action themselves for good reasons:
- Climate activists hear the science.
- Their peaceful protests appeal to the democratic structures of power in our society.
- They essentially call for very concrete actions that are achievable now.

One should actually see an opportunity for a change in these protests instead of repressing them.

@Hey_Beth “many Twitter users” - brilliant shorthand i’ve been needing!

I am curious to see what all the climate activist bigwigs will do - some set up briefly here but almost instantly returned, others just stayed on Twitter. It’s been a particularly disappointing dimension of this saga - more #ClimateScientists than activists came here. Will they now go to #Threads or stay on #Twitter, forever battling #ClimateDenial there?

Where is it possible to find climate scientists gathered on social media? Is there any one platform where, say, scientists contributing to IPCC report talk to each other? I want to know I’m where they are. (Or you are). #climatescience #climatescientists

#ClimateScientists #Academics: Rupert Read’s #ClimateMajrority project is publishing a letter today, already signed by Peter Kalmus, James Dyke and others (I just signed it, too). You can sign it here:

@ClimateChris
Welcome :-) #PTSD sucks. Lots of #ClimateScientists here so you'll definitely find your people!

Also, if you add Alt Text to your images more people will share your post. It can be as descriptive as you want, but a simple text OCR would be enough!

It’s #followfriday for #climatescientists.

@ZLabe it's the #ClimateScientists fault always.

People need to stop blaming everything and everyone else.

Simply lay the blame where it belongs. Look to the climate scientists and blame them.

After all they never warned anyone in the industrial age that the world would become destroyed with climate change while we use all fossil fuels and crap to have the short term gain!

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣.

"Climate crisis deniers target scientists for vicious abuse on Musk’s Twitter,... #ClimateScientists say the change has been stark, and they are fighting to make themselves heard over a 'barrage' of often hostile comments."

Interested in learning how #ClimateScientists evaluate the role of science in affecting negotiations at the COP26 (the 26th Conference of the Parties) and COP27?

@Incognitim
Thank you ☺️ #ClimateScientists are people who studied something like physics or meteorology, i.e. without professional media training. It is often a dilemma between wanting to explain, hoping to educate and suspecting that you are waisting your time on professional anti-science campaigners.
But I agree, in my experience, fediverse has been very hospitable so far.

@ClimSciDefense was founded in 2011 in response to the growing number of attacks on #climatescientists. We continue the fight today by helping #climate, environmental, & other researchers. If you need our help, contact us at 646-801-0853 or lawyer@csldf.org.

New report out from #GlobalWitness on the abuse received by #ClimateScientists

@HelenSquirrel @BrentToderian It surely is. Helen, you might also enjoy our latest #ClimateLens podcast episode. With #15MinuteCities conspiracy folk making noise in Edmonton we brought on a pair of #Alberta #ClimateScientists to talk about where this latest conspiracy fits into the overall historic pattern of #ClimateChange #denialism and #disinformation.

Same folks fearmongering #15MinuteCities were big names in #AntiVax/#FreedomConvoy, which itself had deep roots with Canada's #OilAndGas industry. Our next podcast connects some dots with some Alberta #ClimateScientists.
