The Met put its entire collection online for free so I made a game out of it!
10 artifacts a day, and you guess where and when each one's from. Anthropeum.com if anyone wants to give it a shot and leave feedback :)

#Montreal mentionned in the @nytimes.com for its cycling network 😊
"It’s no surprise that Montreal rates as the top city for biking in North America on the Copenhagenize index, with 673 miles of paths and lanes, including the newer Express Bike Network, and more being built"

The main reason I’ve become such a “air conditioning is an essential life saving technology” advocate is because I was horrified to find out how many people seem to think that letting millions die during heat waves without it is better “for the greater good” of slowing climate change.

Nice to speak to @geoffdembicki.bsky.social @desmog.com about leaked documents revealing the capacity of planned fossil plants for Canadian data centres + my estimate that if they became operational, they'd cause enough emissions to wipe out 15 years of progress

10 gigawatts is roughly the average power demand of NYC (~5.5 GW), LA (~3 GW), and SF (~1 GW) combined
This is why I'm baffled that risk-averse US universities--where many students already struggle with poor mental health--are telling faculty we need to "integrate" the suicide machines & giving free accounts to students. There are going to be some tragic, preventable deaths & some monster lawsuits.
it's especially funny because demand for air conditioning is highest when solar irradiation is at its most intense and you know what also happens when solar irradiation is at its most intense?
solar panel go brr

There is a certain kind of environmental advocate for whom you can barely scratch their surface and find a very classist eugenicist.
Urban dwellers and the disadvantaged are non-entities in their plans.
We should be *encouraging* more cities, the per-person impact is dramatically reduced.
