Cette dissonance soulignée à la fin de l'article est hyper importante. En ce qui me concerne, je ne suis pas encore convaincu de la (bonne) réponse. Vos avis ? npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1xfk…d2tj no they don’t read clock. But I managed to explain the leap day thanks to the model I have. I was surprised to see that I spoke for 1h and half straight and the kids keep listening. At that age, they used to stop listening after ~20 minutes. npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1hr0…4k2l of course there will, I hope you so. Just be careful with the “permanent-job trauma” that I got a few days after I got mine. Several of my colleagues also got it. When you fight so hard and so long to get a permanent position, you might then go to some mental health issues, due to the achievement of a major objective and the lack of a next one. If that happens to you, just talk about it. npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1qhg…w059 I will bring with me a model of the Earth-Moon system … it should be fine. https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/111/971/121/363/210/162/original/863d23f993eaa093.jpeg npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1hr0…4k2l oh, congratulations !

This is a way to skip the responsibility of being the top emitters, while we (UE+North America countries) clearly are responsible for a large part of the current problem. I think people need to understand what are their (shared) responsibilities to make solutions possible. Sending the fault to others is easy but won’t solve it. npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1mmz…3u0s true in theory. In practice, an income of 10k€ is not at all the same in France, or in Greece, Portugal, etc… the costs of life are different. Same for the taxes, e.g. in France, retirement, unemployment, health insurance, etc… are already taken out (mostly) when you get your salary. That’s not the case in every country. npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 Last week, I made a pool on #Mastodon (https://astrodon.social/@AlexSanterne/111869501147810043) about the annual income to be in the 10% world’s richest, who are responsible for 50% of #carbon emissions. 43% of the respondents are correct, the annual income to be in the top 10% is about 20k€ (in #France). You can compare your own income with the rest of the #world here: https://www.givingwhatwecan.org/how-rich-am-i I guess most of us are part of this top 50% #CO2 emitters. #ClimateChange #climate #globalwarming https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/111/912/103/181/365/080/original/422dc17dde51a1a9.jpeg npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1cwn…pd8e This +1.5ºC is likely boosted a bit by El Niño. The averaged global warming over few years is not yet at 1.5ºC, albeit very close. I also don't think there will be a completely different situation by crossing 1.5ºC. It will be smooth, but the doom already started. npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 Back in 2014, the #IPCC report (SR5) predicted that the " #Globalwarming is likely to reach +1.5°C between 2030 and 2052 if it continues to increase at the current rate." That prediction was used to define the objective the #ParisAgreement in 2015. Over the past 12 months, we have already reached +1.5ºC, about 15 years ahead of the prediction. Still, we (humankind) haven't implemented yet the #Paris agreement, while we would need to move way faster than that. #ClimateChange #Climate https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/111/895/788/317/570/207/original/d44dd3774eac6c99.png npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1taw…4753 The global temperature is boosted by El Niño, but yeah, it's pretty clear to me we have reached the no-return point. We still need to make efforts to limit the consequences. I guess now the question is by how much we want to decrease our remaining lifetime ? npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 +1.5°C, here we are ! 🥵 Source: https://www.france24.com/en/europe/20240208-global-temperatures-breached-1-5c-limit-over-12-months-period-for-the-first-time #ClimateChange #climate #globalwarming https://cdn.masto.host/astrodonsocial/media_attachments/files/111/894/541/690/774/955/original/6f9e8ad4eedda2a0.jpeg npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1l65…up59 Un petit pas pour l'environnement, mais un grand pas contre les SUV ? npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1h3e…eklu @npub1z80…uhgq @npub1a6f…ep6g Nous avons effectivement discuté de ce rapport aujourd'hui.

The french history has a clear exemple of a non-fair transition, at a point when the contrast between the top and the base became way too high : the top got shortened. That was in 1789 (french revolution). Let's try to find a fair mitigation without having to cut some heads... npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1rkn…h4pj I would prefer we don't give up with the mitigation to focus on adaptation (for the reasons I already mentioned).

We are crashing them all one at a time. Only 3 are still okay, although #ocean acidification will be reached soon. Can we adapt to a #biodiversity collapse ? Can we adapt without enough #freshwater ? That's a BIG NO. The #IPCC reported in March 2022 that our societies can NOT adapt to +2ºC.

One of the 2022’s physics NP winner recently claimed IPCC experts are wrong because they underestimated the effects of clouds on global warming.

The question shall have been, is it vital to have a space-born internet provider, considering we already have a terrestrial internet service that is 30-90 times more efficient (CO2-wise) ? What is the gain vs the cost ? Here, there is clear and huge cost, for such a little gain. npub1su6y50vrtgmxvuut6t3pnjz4qrg68x44zufw34akzgf4qaeckuzsgtysgr Dr. Alexandre Santerne 🌍 @npub1mhp…6t73 We are emitting 60Gt CO2eq. per year while we should be capped to something like 10 Gt CO2eq. or even less. You can always find another source of emission that is greater than those rockers (next time, try with the electricity production of China). The correct question is: is this vital to us and don't we already have another low-carbon alternative ? BTW, your numbers are off by a lot. A Falcon9 is about 10 000 t CO2eq. / launch.
