Although the actual slope is moving slightly negative (a good thing), the potential to greatly lower US greenhouse emissions is looking great! We positively look forward to being more negative! 😂🤣😂 @citizensclimate @DanaNuccitelli

Americans WAY underestimate support for climate action. Over 2/3 of us support major climate policies! But we assume that only 1/3 of us do. Stat from Nature.com: nature.com/articles/s4146…

Don't get me wrong -- I adore the color and chemistry of rhodochrosite. However, PEROVSKITE may be the future of batteries and saving our planet from planet-warming gases. So the choice has to be perovskite today. Join me in voting for it! mineralcup.org/2023/campaigns…

Don't you think it is time for our lawmakers to act to fight climate change? We all can do small, helpful things, but real change comes from the top using laws.

I thrilled for India and their successful landing on the Moon! 🌔 This is a wonderful step toward understanding the water ice that is harbored at the south pole.
