(1) Fred Wellman on X: "Remember how Trump said he "sent the military in and opened up the water flow" in CA? It appears he forced the Army Corps to just drain reservoirs into recently flooded farmland without telling local farmers or leaders. “In 25 years, I’ve never seen anything like this. I was" / X

This is an incredibly bold move, they're taking ten thousand GPUs into international waters to avoid the regulatory framework Biden and the EU have adopted.The fallout of a corporation trying to establish itself as a nation state is going to be wild. https://t.co/4WewpE4GgI pic.twitter.com/EAjou9W8eW— Sterling Crispin 🕊️ (@sterlingcrispin) October 30, 2023

“pretty crazy:
- container ships burn fuels that emit a lot of sulfur
- the sulfur seeds clouds, increasing the reflectivity of earth, cooling it
- new climate rules in 2020 limit sulfur emissions by cargo ships
- a lack of ship-clouds may explain anomalous heating this year”

The massive heat wave & drought China is experiencing may end up being the worst in recorded history. But turn on the corp news & it’s barely mentioned. George Monbiot calls it The Great Silence. It’s a failure of communication that can’t be rivaled by anything in human history. https://t.co/px9Qe2r74A— Adam McKay (@GhostPanther) August 24, 2022
