You can’t reboot the planet if you crash it
What Gates is putting forward aren’t legitimate arguments that can be made in good faith. They are shopworn fossil fuel industry talking points.

Important.
@transactualuk.bsky.social have released a new report about the harm caused by the Supreme Court misjudgement & the EHRC's interpretation of it.
It shows how the ruling & interpretation is also harming cis women. Those it was supposed to "protect".

Disasters are not natural. Geography doesn’t make anyone a prisoner. Natural processes and the natural shape of our land and seas have been made fraught by the coloniality of the human race, and weaponised by those with power.

Annotating a long 3+ day loop of #Hurricane #Melissa from Kingston, #Jamaica radar.
2️⃣ periods appear where an eyewall replacement cycle, #ERC, looked underway. In both cases, inner eyewall stayed intact & outer bands merged, resulting in a larger eye & strengthening after.
A remarkable evolution 🌀
