Oli Frost is a British musician, who creates "novelty songs about the climate crisis". He has 80.2K followers on Instagram and 11.2K on TikTok. He speaks (actually sings) to his audience in a straightforward yet creative manner and deserves credit for creating awareness about the climate crisis. Our takeaway can be, "no one can do everything, but everyone can do SOMETHING!". https://olifro.st/

It is baffling how there are no laws and/or actions against individuals like Mukesh Ambani and companies out there that contribute massively to air pollution and greenhouse gas emissions, exacerbating the climate crisis. Recently, hundreds of private jets were flown to India from all over the world for his son's "pre-wedding" ceremony. Hollywood and Bollywood celebrities as well as other influential individuals such as Mark Zuckerberg and Gates flew to India to become a part of the circus. Let's not forget that all this happened in a country where thousands of people suffer from lung diseases due to smog and air pollution. 🤡 All that the media has covered revolves around the glamor of this "fairytale" that gathered the world's richest and most famous people, but it's about time we talk about its impact on CLIMATE, shall we? https://aviationa2z.com/index.php/2024/03/02/ambani-family-wedding-rush-400-private-jets-to-fly-to-jamnagar-in-4-days/ https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-68444994

EPA acknowledges widespread noncompliance from coal-fired power plant owners. The EPA announced that coal ash will be an enforcement priority for the agency for the next four years as of October 2023, promising to conduct investigations and take action against coal ash facilities that are violating the law. EPA selects enforcement and compliance priorities so that the agency and its state partners can prioritize resources to address the most serious and widespread environmental problems. The EPA’s National Enforcement and Compliance Initiatives for 2024-2027 include for the first time initiatives to mitigate climate change, address exposure to PFAS contamination, and protect communities from toxic coal ash. Coal ash contains hazardous pollutants including arsenic, boron, cobalt, chromium, lead, lithium, mercury, molybdenum, radium, selenium, and other heavy metals. These have been linked to cancer, heart and thyroid disease, reproductive failure, and neurological harm. Industry is proceeding now, in violation of the federal rule, to close coal ash ponds with toxic ash in contact with groundwater and in floodplains, threatening drinking water and waterways. Utilities have failed to determine the extent of toxic contamination of groundwater, as required by the federal rule, and to clean up contaminated groundwater, which the rule requires. https://earthjustice.org/experts/lisa-evans/epa-announces-that-cleaning-up-coal-ash-will-be-a-top-priority-for-enforcement

When it comes to sustainability, people believe being kinder to the planet means a direct or indirect compromise on lifestyle. While in reality not buying things that you are only going to wear or use once (just because they are trending) is good for both you and the planet. 👗 Home design is an often overlooked area in the climate discussion. There is product after product for home decor & design that end up in the landfills either for going out of trend or nondurability. British designer Matthew Williamson deserves a thumbs-up for changing that and promoting beautiful, sustainable interior designs. Williamson believes, “Using what you have already and reworking it in a different way can be so rewarding – it is more personal and just as effective as starting from scratch. We tend to think luxury comes from buying shiny new things but luxury can be found just by seeing things differently. Resourcefully create layers from what you have and to tell your own story. The best-looking rooms and homes are those which have soul and a unique personality. Rather than physical items, think more about feelings and atmosphere.” So why run after a trend when you create something using the things that you have or choose second-hand home items that you can totally get creative with? 🖌🎨 https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/design/interior-design-stylish-sustainable-home-b2260868.html

The ocean holds the key to our survival. From absorbing carbon emissions and heat to stabilizing our climate, there are a lot of reasons why we need our oceans. Spanning three-quarters of the planet, the oceans provide a home for numerous species and offer a solution to serious social and survival problems like food security and poverty. Feeding a growing population of eight billion is a serious challenge. But aquatic foods—fish, mollusks, crustaceans, and algae—hold incredible potential. They offer long-term food opportunities and essential nutrition for children and women. But we need to be careful and choose sustainable aquaculture, only then we can meet the demand without harming the ocean environment. This World Oceans Day, let us embrace our connection with the ocean and keep it clean to ensure biodiversity restoration. Our future is in our own hands! 🐙 https://www.fao.org/newsroom/detail/world-oceans-day-must-be-humans-day-fao-fisheries-chief/en

A South African conservation group is enlisting local community members to grow trees to restore high-altitude mistbelt forests that are home to the threatened Cape parrot (Poicephalus robustus). Since 2011, residents of three rural communities in and around the Hogsback area have raised more than 52,000 trees — including outeniqua yellowwoods (Afrocarpus falcatus), red currants (Searsia chirindensis) and white stinkwoods (Celtis africana) — in nurseries supported by the Cape Parrot Project (CPP) and its partners. More than a century of selective logging for valuable hardwood timber has depleted the Eastern Cape’s Amathole Mountains of mature yellowwood trees with the natural cavities in which the parrots like to nest. The forests remain susceptible. A study published last year by CPP scientists found that 32% of trees considered potential nest trees were also potential candidates for harvesting. The CPP planted at least 5,000 trees last year at sites in the Hogsback area in Eastern Cape province; another 10,000 will be planted this year. In addition to tree planting, the project also promotes management of non-native vegetation. CPP teams have planted seedlings in degraded areas of forest, including places overrun by invasive species like the black wattle (Acacia mearnsii). “When our planted trees get strong enough and can handle the sun, then we’ll ringbark [girdle] the big [invasives] and take them down,” said Susan Wishart, project coordinator for the CPP. Income earned by 48 community members working on the project has helped them sustain their families in this economically deprived area. After months of work collecting seeds and raising seedlings, participants at the Isikhululweni nursery, on the outskirts of Hogsback, saw the fruits of their labor toward the end of last year when they earned their first payments. It was a significant moment for the team, almost all of them women. “They are now the breadwinners in their homes,” Wishart said. Mistbelt forests, which span much of eastern South Africa, are vital water catchment areas and carbon sinks. Cape parrots, handsome green birds with vivid orange wing patches, can serve as a flagship species for their conservation. https://news.mongabay.com/2023/05/forests-finance-agroforestry-in-cameroon-and-reforestation-in-south-africa/

An artist and a lover of the natural world! 🌳 Jeanne Simmons’ Ecological Artwork—or “Eco Art”—is a modern form of environmental art aimed at raising awareness for the planet. 🌺 Simmons's passion for the planet reflects in her art as it demonstrates the issues concerning humanity and the Earth. She is lucky to live close to beaches, forests, and fields that act as a source of inspiration for her art. She describes the connection between us and our environment as a "dynamic relationship". Her art is a reminder of how deeply connected we are with nature, almost as if we were bound together cannot survive without each other, but let's not forget that nature can and will survive without us, it's us who cannot survive without nature! She says, “I hope to nurture this dynamic relationship, which is our birthright and obligation, and to perhaps even rekindle and reawaken a yearning for it in others, as well as satisfy my own need to embed myself in nature" Here is to Jeannie 🥂 https://www.brightvibes.com/imaginative-eco-artist-highlights-the-entangled-relationship-between-humans-and-nature/

As the Global South continues to pay the price for Global North's luxurious life styles and absolute selfishness, there are now new problems to battle! Recent studies show that climate change increases mental health disorders in people living in the vulnerable countries. There is evidence for increased depressive episodes, anxiety and other other mental health problems. Pakistan, India and Bangladesh are among some of the most vulnerable countries. There have been extreme floods, droughts and other natural disasters in these countries in the past few years and most, if not all of them are directly liked with climate change. The increased 1 degree may not be that big a deal for the colder regions of the world but it is too much for South Asia! "As climate change worsens, temperatures and humidity will continue to increase, as will natural disasters, such as extreme flooding, which portends worsening impact on our collective mental health," Wahid says. The physical impacts of climate disruption can be more easily seen so they garner more attention, Van Susteren says, adding: "Psychological burdens, by contrast, often lie hidden, seeping unconsciously into and insinuating themselves into every aspect of our lives, and that of our families and communities. Grossly underreported, they are exceedingly difficult to treat." The impact is now beyond physical and deeply disturbing for people's mental welfare. Why is no court or so called "human rights" organization bothered by this? https://www.news-medical.net/news/20230214/Climate-change-can-increase-mental-health-disorders.aspx

Australia is ready to reduce its carbon emissions and address the impact of major industrial sites! The Labor government and the Greens party worked out a deal that requires the total emissions from major industrial facilities to come down, not just be offset. Many of the country's major polluting facilities will be required to cut emissions intensity at least by 5% a year, with absolute cuts or by buying carbon offsets. As the world's 3rd largest fossil fuel exporter, Australia is still running export projects, but as per the new law still must offset all CO2 emissions. While it is encouraging but of course, not enough. Also, the deal does not prevent further industry expansion, and the Greens had to compromise on their initial demand to ban new coal and gas upcoming developments. The legislation is a step in the right direction, but there is still much work to be done to reductions in carbon emissions in Australia.

After 10 years of effort in developing the technology, the Swedish pulp producer Renewcell has finally introduced the world's first commercial-scale chemical recycling mill. ♻ There are recycling methods which involve manual shredding of textile and conversion into fibers. Such methods have existed for centuries but the problem is that they take a lot of manual effort and time. Renewcell is the first commercial mill to introduce chemical recycling, which can help scale production and improve efficiency. With an ambition to recycle the equivalent of 1.4 billion T-shirts every year by 2030, the new plant seems to be the beginning of an eco-friendly shift in fashion industry. Limiting waste from the clothing industry is crucial for the planet's future. We cannot have more poorly produced clothes ending up in the already choked landfills!

There probably is an unwritten consensus among people around the world on the type of chitchat our hairdressers have with us. It's almost always, small talk! And we love that! 💇♀️ But what if there were more to it? What if we had a real conversation for once? beyond weather? Perhaps about climate? Paloma Garcia is a hairdresser ready to have some real talk. More than 400 hairdressers have attended workshops as part of a project called "A Brush With Climate" with her. During the sessions, hairdressers hear the basics of climate science and get to role-play how conversations might go. They also take one of the posters back to their own salons. Her initiative is amazing as it is sometimes difficult to talk about the climate crisis but we need to normalize it only then we all would be able to find a solution. The first step is always acceptance! “We’re relationship builders,” Garcia says. “We suggest some easy ways to introduce climate to the conversation and the biggest one is definitely the weather. But we encourage all the hairdressers to make it their own story.” She also reports really good feedback from her regular guests who try to have the conversation in their circles and also even try to make some eco-friendly changes! 💚 https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/mar/26/wash-blow-dry-and-15-degrees-please-hairdressers-trained-to-talk-about-climate-action

I wish I had something positive to share on this World Water Day, but I am at loss for words given the current circumstances. 💔😥 The world is facing an approaching water crisis, with demand expected to outrun supply by 40% by the end 2030, so we have what? 8 years to try and fix this? At this point I don't even know if that's possible. With poor water management in agriculture, water pollution and inefficient infrastructure, water crisis is not new for many countries, including Pakistan. But it is now getting worse than even and there is no time to waste! Governments, all over the world must stop allowing the extraction and overuse of water through misdirected agricultural subsidies, and industries from mining to manufacturing must do something about their wasteful practices. Johan Rockstrom, the director of the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research says “The scientific evidence is that we have a water crisis. We are misusing water, polluting water, and changing the whole global hydrological cycle, through what we are doing to the climate. It’s a triple crisis.” There have been experts in the past who warned the governments about the current almost irreversible water crisis, but they all did what they do best and that was NOTHING! Do we still have time to fix this?????? I am not so sure. https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2023/mar/17/global-fresh-water-demand-outstrip-supply-by-2030

The US Department of Energy announced a massive investment in direct air carbon removal projects. Recent study published in Science Advances presents a promising new technique for direct air capture of carbon pollution that can be up to three times more efficient than current technology. The absorbent material developed by the team is made of copper and can easily and cheaply remove CO2 from the atmosphere. Once captured, the carbon dioxide can be turned into sodium bicarbonate and released into the ocean at a small concentration. However, there may be regulatory hurdles to overcome, and some experts remain concerned about negative impacts on the oceans. Nonetheless, the technology is ready to be trialed, and further research is needed to understand its scalability. Overall, this discovery presents an exciting opportunity to tackle the challenge of reducing carbon pollution in the atmosphere. While it sounds promising, I have my concerns as an individual for it may just aggravate climate problems.

Today taking out CO2 from air is very much necessary even after the speed of avoidance of letting CO2 into air by human activities. So it is a must, but when ever such systems are designed it should put carbon into circular usage rather than creating another hazard.

The UN Climate Change Executive Secretary, Simon Stiell, has called on the fashion industry to accelerate its efforts in reducing emissions and demonstrate a commitment to systemic change. 🙌 While progress has been made, such as complying with reporting requirements and sharing climate-related information, the sector still has a significant distance to travel. Stiell made these remarks at a Fashion Industry Charter for Climate Action meeting in Germany. Stirll says that the fashion sector needs to move further and faster. "It needs to accelerate the pace of implementation of this Charter and extend its reach. Emissions need to go down as rapidly as possible.” 🌏 https://unfccc.int/news/fashion-industry-needs-to-move-further-and-faster-to-drive-climate-action

We need the fashion industry to take some big steps! The trend to make more seasons and more sales with clothes of poor quality needs to stop!

The fashion industry should decarbonize its operations and seek to reduce its contribution to climate change.

Truly the fashion industry owes the planet a big deal of commitment to zeroing it's emissions it emits. Fast fashion is ruining the planet and it's about time that we realize that what's in the wardrobe is even more than enough to run you for the next half a decade at least without making new purchases.

This is a whole new level of climate denial! 😲 Did Exxon know about the predicted consequences of carbon emissions? Yes! Did the decision-makers do something about it? NO! On top of not doing anything, they lied and "quantifiably misled the public, by essentially contributing quietly to climate science and yet loudly promoting doubt about that science”. A 2021 published study identifies the ways in which ExxonMobil used "increasingly subtle but systematic language to shape the way the public talks and thinks about climate change". ExxonMobil’s advertising materials and other documents deflect attention away from the oil company’s role in fueling climate change with fossil fuels and turn it toward consumer demand for and dependency on its products. WOW! so its the consumer who is at fault and not the one actually using fossil fuels... 🤯 What shocks me is not that they lied, but the fact of how misleading a bunch of white men in positions of power can be and what havoc they can wreak on humanity! https://news.harvard.edu/gazette/story/2023/01/harvard-led-analysis-finds-exxonmobil-internal-research-accurately-predicted-climate-change/ https://www.vox.com/22429551/climate-change-crisis-exxonmobil-harvard-study
