solo@piefed.socialto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•Climate change heightens risk of Indian farmer suicidesEnglish3·2 days agoFarmer suicides have a long history in India
Dammit, very long indeed. It seems thatnearly 4,00,000 farmers committed suicide in India between 1995 and 2018. This translates into approximately 48 suicides every day..
For me, this is beautiful because thanks to the many rows, we can access more stuff in just one click.
I don’t know how anyone would feel about the following, nor how easy or difficult it would be to implement something like that, but I’ll say it anyways. I was wondering if we could somehow access all these in one click, instead of two. Meaning, what if these lists were on the sidebar? Or perhaps create a new, narrower sidebar on the left side? Possibly, them having the option to collapse as well?
Just some thoughts and thank you for everything.

solo@piefed.socialto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•Picking Up SpeedEnglish1·3 days agoI am not really sure I understand what you mean. Of course 0.5°C is very important, but to my understanding, the Paris Agreement is really not going as planned.
As the official deadline passes for countries to submit their revised Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement, only 13 of the 195 parties have done so. Alarmingly, this group includes just five developed countries, which are required to lead the way on climate action.
Under the Paris Agreement, every country must update its national climate action plan every five years. These NDC plans outline how nations intend to reduce emissions and adapt to climate impacts to limit global warming to 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. This year’s submissions should extend their new NDCs to 2030 and outline new objectives for the period up to 2035, setting the tone for a decisive decade of climate action.

solo@piefed.socialto Climate Crisis, Biosphere & Societal Collapse@sopuli.xyz•As Arctic ice vanishes, maritime traffic boom fuels the climate crisisEnglish1·3 days agoIt looks like the IMO’s pledge to reduce emissions by at least 20% is totally feasible. At least according to the following recent study
Reducing travel speeds and using an intelligent queuing system at busy ports can reduce greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from oceangoing container vessels by 16-24%, according to researchers. Not only would those relatively simple interventions reduce emissions from a major, direct source of greenhouse gases, the technology to implement these measures already exists.

It’s what we do now that will shape the future. I mean, we the people. We cannot rely on governments or corporations to do the right thing without us forcing them to. By now, we know this.
So, I believe that conversations about solutions are more fruitful than deterministic statements, no matter how highly upvoted these statements are.
solo@piefed.socialOPto Biodiversity@mander.xyz•‘It was our hope spot’: scientists heartbroken as pristine coral gardens hit by Western Australia’s worst bleaching eventEnglish12·4 days agoI thought of adding this article too, because it looks like there are Some Hopeful News About the Future of the World’s Corals.
Much has been learned about heat-resistant corals in the last decade. Village by village and beach by beach, reef restoration is progressing.
This article is not really about mathematical talent. It mentions that stereotypes might be reproduced by attributing success in girls to diligence and in boys to talent, but it’s about mathematical ability.
