Arm yourself with knowledge

It actually makes the case that CO₂ is the dominant control on Earth’s temperature

Kazan, Ufa, Moscow and Saint-Petersburg will be like Russian south in 60 years. Which is not that bad, actually. But some parts of the world will be heated so much, that there's nowhere that can be compared to it.

The Ocean Cleanup is a non-profit organization developing advanced technologies to rid the oceans of plastic. We aim to remove 90% of the floating plastic with the help of ocean cleanup systems and river interception technologies.

В общем-то, от переработки одежды толка нету.

Basically, we are standing at a very bad point regarding the climate. I expect regions with acceptable air and temperature to become very luxurious. Better be there when the time comes. But what are such regions?

I think I've accepted the doom of the burning world. It will happen and I am witnessing it already. A fact.

Wiki on trash. Dumpster divers go here.

We use “minimal computing” to refer to computing done under some set of significant constraints of hardware, software, education, network capacity, power, or other factors. Minimal computing includes both the maintenance, refurbishing, and use of machines to do DH work out of necessity along with the use of new streamlined computing hardware like the Raspberry Pi or the Arduino micro controller to do DH work by choice. This dichotomy of choice vs. necessity focuses attention on computing that is decidedly not high-performance. By operating at this intersection between choice and necessity minimal computing forces important concepts and practices within the DH community to the fore. In this way minimal computing is also an critical movement, akin to environmentalism, asking for balance between gains and costs in related areas that include social justice issues and de-manufacturing and reuse, not to mention re-thinking high-income assumptions about “e-waste” and what people do with it. Minimal computing thus relates to issues of aesthetics, culture, environment, global relationships of power and knowledge production, and other economic, infrastructural and material conditions.

They are not active anymore. They have a cute abacus as a logo.

On the need for low-carbon and sustainable computing and the path towards zero-carbon computing.

One can make diesel by burning plastic and make a car go with that diesel! The biggest problem is that in the process of burning too much emissions are produced.

The energy use of the internet can only stop growing when energy sources run out, unless we impose self-chosen limits.

Tetralogy. The climate catastrophe is two years away (just by the time I'll finish the bachelor degree).

To save the planet, actions are needed. They are not done.

Also, further parts of the series talk about software.

if we fail to mitigate the climate crisis, we’re headed for a world where it’s expensive or impossible to get new hardware, where electrical power is scarce, internet access is not the norm, and cloud services don’t exist anymore or are largely inaccessible due to lack of internet.
