    New term: “Sunny day flooding.” High tide plus sea level rise.

    Cities along the Eastern Seaboard of the US have suffered sunny day flooding from seas rising far faster than average. One study published last year shows that from 2011-2015, sea levels rose up to 5 inches, an inch per year:

    No you’re not. You’re an anti-science front group, complicit in pushing alternative medicine, anti-vaccination and other quackery. Don’t you dare call yourselves environmentalists either. You cause nothing but harm.

    Thread on how anti-nuclear activities are playing out with enormous harm to humanity’s aggregate effect on climate. Climate responds ONLY to aggregate effect. Local or specialized do-goodery doesn’t count unless it adds up.

    1. This is the story of how irrational and paranoid anti-nuclear leaders have, for decades, used fear-mongering, bombings, & even murder to terrify & terrorize the European people into replacing the cleanest & safest form of energy with the dirtiest & most dangerous one.

    ⁦⁩ likes to say that whereas *scenarios* about the future have to be plausible in the present, the *actual* future we end up with need not be plausible in the present. The problem today is that the present is not plausible in the present

    “GM food is not merely a cause of cancer and a source of infertility. It is also a grand Western scheme… a monumental, supremely devious plot to annihilate the Chinese and other people of colour." Paranoid untruths like this seem to gain power from massive overstatement.

    The crazy conspiracy theory that may be believed by 190 million Chinese people:

    Note that these images of "Earthrise" were made in August 1966, just five months after I started my campaign "Why Haven't We Seen a Photograph of the Whole Earth Yet?" The iconic color Earthrise photo was made in December 1968.
