As with Zionism I expect we will come to understand the so-called moderate position as extreme, which will leave its proponents little to argue, as their whole pitch is based around their own reasonable moderation.
In the months leading up to a potentially devastating El Niño, “very serious” ppl are playing culture wars w climate science to… make themselves feel good??
This discourse doesn’t really matter to the world, except for revealing the vapid nihilism of the indulgence.

Rumeysa has been my student, collaegue, friend for over a decade. She does not carry a hateful bone in her body let alone being antisemitic.
I wholeheartedly vouch for her and unless we speak up, these horrific events will continue to happen!

Is there a link between #ClimateChange & increasing risk/severity of #wildfire in California--including the still-unfolding disaster? Yes. Is climate change the only factor at play? No, of course not. So what's really going on? [Thread] #CAfire #CAwx #LAfires iopscience.iop.org/article/1…

If you're at #AGU24 check out Harvard thesis student Ian Palk's talk on root exudation response to climate change tomorrow morning. This project was a huge undertaking including hundreds of in situ exudation measurements at several global change experiments across multiple years

Out today: belowground responses of AM and EM trees differ in response to soil warming! We measured root exploration, exudation, and symbiosis and found that EM trees adjust their root strategies under warming while AM trees maintain them
