Not all climate “solutions” are created equal. Some actually do more harm than good like some of the top ones here. Bookmark the Drawdown Explorer in case you are ever not sure.
Some proposed climate “solutions” just don’t stack up against an objective, evidence-based perspective.

That’s why the Drawdown Explorer calls these “Not Recommended” climate solutions.

@atinygreencell.bsky.social , turns out I am growing a Korean perilla (Perilla frutescens) that is doing a consistent triple whorl, spontaneously. Happy to ship a sample, once shipping between our countries is a go again

Does nature observe city limits? Why no, it does not. Menno Schilthuizen´s ´the urban naturalist´ is full of fascinating stories of life adapting to the urban environment and the people studying it.

Second electroplating experiment, for an anode for what will be an ion-plasma wind tunnel. Electroplating is fun and easy, I can live with that!

Action to address climate crisis is CRITICAL! Definitely a great step towards getting different institutional leadership to work in unison!
🌍 Just published in 14+ journals! AMI & global leaders call for microbial solutions to tackle climate change. Let’s harness nature’s power to capture carbon & restore ecosystems—time to act! 🧬🌱 #ClimateAction #MicrobialSolutions #COP29Baku
