@noelreports It would be a nice effort for the kind of fund raising you guys organise. For a state such as Japan, this is ludicrous. We are not going to see the end of it if we continue to trickle our help. I mean, just think of the number of Jeeps the US produced during WW2…

@andrewperpetua It’s Mont St Michel, the footages interspersed with war ones! A beautiful monument in Western France.

@QOTO Some videos in this timeline are not available: example mstdn.social/@noelreports/1112 Would you be so kind as to explain why? I can see them from my account on mstdn.social

@stephane_treize @jeanlafourchex Ça finira par s'équilibrer: 66% de chance entre +2.6 K et +3.9 K. À la louche, la moitié de la dernière glaciation dans l'autre sens. On s'adaptera ™ 🙄

@andrewdessler The only Wielicky I know is the great Polish alpine climber! 😉

@Tendar Glad you still post. I entirely gave up Twitter, so I have to rely on you and a few others posting here. Thanks!

@skinwalkerpenelope@glasgow.social @ed_hawkins Well, perhaps… But we do for a great number of other observables. For example, in economy, we can say the inflation in 1962 was x% lower than the 1970-1980 average.

@skinwalkerpenelope@glasgow.social @ed_hawkins The 1981-2023 average is just a number. One can compare any other number to it, whatever year it corresponds to. It doesn’t really matter what reference is chosen as long as it is the same one throughout.

@chrisnelder About 14 GWh. The difference looks like the energy used by diesel pumps after cursorily reading. That’s one of the goal of the project to remove them.

@Xxi J’ai dit ça au hasard mais en connaissant la probabilité à priori 😉

@chrisnelder But I am not a doomist: I see this as a motivation to move faster and more aggressively to a world without fossil fuels. The faster to net zero, the lower the final temperature, the less likely we hit that tipping point. Even if that gives only a small chance, it’s better than nothing considering the danger.

@chrisnelder The crux is the paragraph just before that conclusion imho. ⤵️ First it is the source of year 2025 in The Guardian. Then near certainty of a tipping point this century and a most probable time around 2050, this is too close for my comfort!

@Xxi Une de ces maladies rares qui ont donné le melon à Raoult?

@andrewdessler $5 million is not that much actually: politicians are cheap! It’s about 10 houses like mine in a well-off suburb of Paris, France. Grass-root funding should be able to compete, shouldn’t it?

Donc les sœurs dynamite ont réussi à avoir Nendili, c’est ça, j’ai bien compris ? @Xxi
