And there you have it - the ignorance of the difference between climate and seasonal weather, the impact of human-driven climate change and the arrogance to believe he knows more than climatologists and meteorologists. Hey ho

"It's all a big hoax." Trump
"We don't have a global warming problem- At certain points it starts to cool a little bit-if snow comes down in middle of summer, it's climate change."
Complete ignorance from Trump - 99% of climate scientists disagree

Embodied resources are a hidden peril. For 8 years my focus was technology but all products and systems use multiple resources in their processes and materials. @FutureFocus21c

Producing a 👕 T-shirt requires 2,700 litres of freshwater.
This is as much as a person drinks in 2.5 years!
We can manage our water resources better and become a #WaterWiseEU 👉 europa.eu/!p6hkwy
Look how much 'hidden water' there is in these everyday products 👇

More and more I’m thinking about the emotional / mental health crisis that will occur once the reality hits the majority. A 40 year old outdated definition of sustainable development framing the conversations / action is dangerous
- our future is compromised #ClimateCrisis

Deeply concerned that most engagement is within #SustainableDebelopment lens… Where else are solutions designed framed by an almost 40-year old obsolete definition? We have already ‘compromised the ability of future generations’#getreal #WickedProblem #FlawedDesign approach :/

I’ve always been interested in China’s ‘brain drain to brain gain’ approach and their recruitment of creatives from EU / other academia a sort of strategic #STEAM approach to innovation. #bigpicture #curious #futuresliteracy

The Economist: "China has become a scientific superpower"
Rare for me - maybe even unprecedented - to praise the Economist but this might be the seminal article on the current status of China's scientific might.
Let's take a look 🧵

#RIP Bill Anders Such a gift to the world. The Overview effect ‘a greater appreciation for Earth and its apparent fragility, and a deep connection to humanity as a whole’ @FutureFocus21c @STEMartsLab
Bill Anders took this photo from the far side of the moon and changed our world.
On Christmas Day 1968, the day after this image was taken, poet Archibald MacLeish wrote: “To see the Earth as it truly is, small and blue and beautiful in that eternal silence where it floats, is to see ourselves as riders on the Earth together, brothers on that bright loveliness in the eternal cold—brothers who know now that they are truly brothers.”
The brotherhood and sisterhood inspired by Bill's photo will live on for generations. May he rest in peace.

I’ve been aware and involved in climate action for close to 30 years. Aside from confusing messaging lack of real leadership, the overarching oft cited almost 40 year definition of sustainability does nothing to move things forward - we have already compromised the ability
Solidarity with everyone going through the crippling pain of being fully awake to what's happening and what is being done to us

of future generations to meet their needs, sustainable development as currently realised is an oxymoron. I know no other area where solutions to challenges are designed with an overarching rationale that is almost 40 years old. We do not have the time / luxury to operate this way

What are we sustaining and how do we evolve a more nuanced definition - there are more current definitions but they don’t seem to be embedded in policy.
