Last Notes npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Very successful re-heating of pizza on a hotel iron. [email protected] for the foil. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I’m trying to convince my institution that’s it’s worthwhile to be on Bluesky, so I volunteered to setup an account and posted at @[email protected] .[email protected] npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Something really good happened this week. A great NOAA climate scientist is retiring, because too demoralizing to work there now. I decided to fundraise to get him a gravel bike by emailing 80 colleagues (including some of you). 60 people donated 2x my goal, so I was able to get him this beauty. 😍 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The US-Israel war on Iran has emitted 5 million tonnes of CO₂ₑ in its first 14 days. The world currently has 0.6 million tonnes of novel and permanent CO₂ removal (CDR) capacity annually. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho $200 billion could fund the National Science Foundation for 20 years. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Impressive work from the WSJ. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The real insanity isn’t how much oil prices have spiked, it’s that we’re still burning oil for energy. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The perfect headline doesn’t exi… npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Some of the replies are incredible. It may be true that some of the land used as pastures are not suitable for growing crops, but we don’t have to use all the land. We could just leave some places to be wild. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I've been thinking about this a lot. AI will make everyone except the 0.01% worse off. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Lol npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Because of Brexit, the UK GDP is 6–8% lower than it would have been, business investment is 18% lower than in comparable economies, and both employment and productivity are around 4% lower. Can’t wait to see in a decade how Trump has damaged the US economically. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Amsterdam will ban fossil fuel and meat advertisements in public spaces and on public transport starting May 1st. 🥳 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Do I know anyone in London with a rotary cutter (like a Dremel)? I need to shorten a stainless steel screw. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Going through security, the guy opened my bag, removed my book, and swabbed the front and back covers(!). I said, “It’s what’s on the pages that’s dangerous.” He was not amused. 🙃 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho They're also removing the remaining glaciers from Glacier National Park. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho This is the most astonishing graph of what the Trump regime has done to US science. They have destroyed the federal science workforce across the board. The negative impacts on Americans will be felt for generations, and the US might never be the same again. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Who's going to stop the evil pedophile mad king from dropping a nuclear bomb on an ally? npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho It was inevitable. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho This Pete looks like he could beat the shit out of our Pete. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I want this for all motor vehicles on the road. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Are we great yet? npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Still true npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho A pelican tried to eat my bike. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Cory Doctorow burying the lede that he’s setting up his own Bluesky server and coming to interact with us. 😍 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho You can get an electric one, and even a convertible. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho We have to be purposeful about ending the use of fossil fuels because they’re not going to end themselves anytime soon. While wind and solar are cheaper, they are not as profitable. Therein lies the problem. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Motherfucking wind farms… npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho WTF? I was quoted in this story but I have never spoken to the reporter nor would I have said those things. Is everything just generated by LLMs these days? npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho This is basically every climate discourse on Twitter and why most of us climate scientists left. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho It’s hot enough to cook a turkey in Turkey. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The first planned migration of an entire country due to climate change is happening! Tuvalu, a Pacific island nation, is at risk of being submerged under rising sea level, so it has signed an agreement with Australia to allow 280 Tuvaluans to settle in Australia as permanent residents each year. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Weird that he would rename it that. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Good luck everyone! npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I’m no political strategist but if Trump wants to distract us from the Epstein Files, he could try fully funding NIH, EPA, NASA, NOAA, NSF, USDA, USGS, etc. We’d be so shocked that we won’t stop talking about it for months. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho These photos of solar power projects in China are incredible. I especially like this one of the Hangzhou West Railway Station. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Read this interesting piece from @willbunch.bsky.social, where he argues that understanding the fixation with conspiracy theories like that involving Jeffrey Epstein is crucial for Democrats to effectively engage with voters and address the underlying cultural resentments driving Trump’s support. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Note to self: Avoid low hanging branches. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho It’s a small consolation but those who oppose genocide and those who oppose our continued use of fossil fuels will be on the right side of history. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Kristi Noem didn't renew the expired call center contracts for five days, resulting in the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) failing to answer nearly two-thirds of calls to its disaster assistance line from flood survivors in Texas. It's malevolence mixed with incompetence again and again. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The same people who deny that releasing 40+ billion tonnes of chemicals annually into the atmosphere changes our climate think that an airplane spraying a few tonnes of chemicals into the atmosphere definitely does. I want the world to be less stupid, as well as less evil. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho A lesson on how to write a headline. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho A bunch of Trump appointees, like Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick, the multibillionaire, stand to benefit financially if weather forecasts are privatized. People who can’t afford weather forecasts are going to die. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Who could have foreseen Grok going full Nazi? 🤷🏻♂️ npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Maybe people who don’t care about people and the health of the planet shouldn’t be put in charge of the future of the planet. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Brexit happened 5 years ago and it feels like the UK is still reeling from it. I think the US will be suffering from its current act of self harm for at least a generation. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The people they kidnapped are from Vietnam, South Korea, Mexico, Laos, Cuba, Myanmar, and just one is from South Sudan. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The State Department says not to travel to South Sudan because it’s super dangerous but somehow the Trump administration is kidnapping people in the US and sending them there. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho The GOP is trying to kill the Keeling Curve, the most iconic time series in the environmental sciences. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho This applies to IPCC, UNFCCC COP, climate protests, net zero goals, renewable energy deployment, energy efficiency efforts, ecosystem conservation, etc. We have to do more, including rapidly decarbonizing and stopping CO₂ emissions that have no marginal utility, but it’s not nothing. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Climate change is expanding mosquito habitat in Hawaiʻi, threatening endangered birds with avian malaria. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I get annoyed at the narrative that all the awareness and work on climate change hasn't done anything. Yes, global CO₂ emissions indeed continue to climb, but we don't know the counterfactual. When I was in grad school, we were on track for 5°C of warming. Now it's below 3°C. That's progress. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho On #ShowYourStripes day, notice that even the most remote population center in the world is experiencing rapid warming due to our use of fossil fuels. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho We’re wasting the remaining carbon budget on war and AI. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho This is better than Trump and Elon fighting. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho A mylar balloon landed behind us so we turned around to fetch it. Mylar balloons take hundreds of years to decompose and pose a threat to marine animals through entanglement and ingestion. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho So the Senate Reconciliation Bill is basically privatizing the American West. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I usually say that 1.5°C or 2°C of warming is not a threshold, but a TARGET to stay under. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho We use copper tubes to take samples for ³He because it’s so sneaky that it’ll diffuse through glass. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I’m making a morning habit of hanging out with the nēnēs. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho @sellathechemist.mastodon.social.ap.brid.gy, a @ucl.ac.uk chemistry professor, has returned his 2014 Michael Faraday Prize to protest the @royalsociety.org's failure to take more decisive (or any) action against Elon Musk for his attack on science. 👏 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho If you've never heard of marine heat waves, now is the time to pay attention. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho @bopplaurent.bsky.social studies climate change, marine biogeochemistry, and ocean ecosystems at @geosciences.bsky.social and @ipsl.bsky.social. As one of the best scientists in our field, he was recently elected to the French Academy of Sciences. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho My friend is in charge of the team that wrote the climate change adaptation plan for Switzerland and this is one of the things they expected. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Hard to believe they’re talking about the same event. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho This is how Ikea stores are built. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I just made a conscious decision to carry my US passport with me in an American city to prove my citizenship. 😒 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho At least in China, they got high-speed rail out of having an authoritarian government. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Portrait of a sociopath npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I’ve got nothing profound to say here. They’re just cute. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Highly improbable and unexpected. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Here's a figure from IPCC AR6 Summary for Policymakers showing the linear relationship between fucking around and finding out. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho People ignoring the fascist takeover of our democracy. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Many of my federal scientist friends are unwilling to speak to journalists, even on background, because they fear the consequences of speaking out. We've got a nice constitution here. It would be amazing if someone actually followed it. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Bottom trawling is horribly destructive to coastal ocean ecosystems, and deep-sea mining will do the same to the open ocean. #OceanFilm 🌊 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho One way Trump is making Americans poorer is by making the US dollar fall with his shenanigans, so things now cost almost 10% more when visiting Europe than before the inauguration. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho One estimate is that the cessation of USAID funding could result in ~25 million additional deaths over 15 years. I would like to see a story written about how potentially murderous Trump could be, so that people in Congress who could stop him can ask themselves if that's what they want the US to be. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Trump will emerge as the most murderous U.S. president in history by far, after his cancellation of NIH grants to cure diseases, elimination of USAID and its life-saving missions around the world, and destruction of federal agencies helping us mitigate and adapt to weather and climate disasters. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Facebook tracked when adolescent girls deleted selfies so it can serve a beauty ad to them at that moment. 😳 npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I think a lot about what Carl Sagan said in one of his final interviews. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Been walking by this shop where they make deliveries using electric cargo bikes, and decided to talk to them about it. They say it’s not about ideology, but that it’s more efficient because of where bikes vs cars can go. When the Greens were in power, there was a substantial rebate on ecargo bikes. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Welp…NSF will now suspend the awarding of new and existing research grants until further notice. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Cute, but unless these other countries are willing to spend as much as the US on science, the brain drain will be to other professions (some completely unrelated to science). npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Long shot, but does anyone have a Rhodamine sensor for a YSI EXO sonde that we could borrow in May? npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Happy Earth Day! npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho Has anyone noted how ridiculous it is that Trump, who operated a scam called Trump University, is trying to gain control of the most prestigious universities in the US? npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho “So this is my radical proposal for universities: Act like universities, not like businesses. Spend your endowments. Accept more, not fewer students. Open up your campuses and expand your reach not by buying real estate but by bringing education to communities. Create a base. Become a movement.” npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho These EOs are just slightly longer social media posts from a deranged mind. npub16cr4hpmkw5j9vmwdmlsmxftd2celtxxesg5yhfe2der4n0n9gdwq9f3fc3 David Ho I had a literal nightmare that during a town hall, the VP of research at my university threatened to sue me because NOAA had taken back one of my grants, but I had already spent some of the funds. He was going to make me pay for it personally. Check on your climate scientist friends.
