AI consumed as much water as the water bottle industry this year. It also created as much carbon pollution as New York City, according to a new study. www.theverge.com/news/845831/...

AI’s water and electricity use soars in 2025

It’s guzzling up even more water than expected.

I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

Teachers: we really need supports for complex needs in classrooms, lower class sizes, better working conditions, and appropriate funding UCP: best we can do is a book ban

Surprise! Looks who’s backpedaling and blame shifting due to the outraged public. Don’t blame ESPB, this book banning belongs solely to the Alberta Government.

Carney: The system of global trade anchored on the United States.. is over. Our old relationship of steadily deepening integration with the United States is over. The 80 year period when the United States embraced the mantle of economic leadership… is over.

As an educator, it’s increasingly difficult to name a professional conviction or pedagogical commitment that justifies the use of generative AI. The daily use of AI must not overshadow tangible actions to redress our climate crisis lest we further erode our position as trusted stewards of learning.

There is an article in this month’s NCTE Council Chronicle that celebrates the opportunities the author says AI brings to classrooms. Nowhere in there were any of the ways we don’t want AI in classrooms - information theft, support of modern slavery, and destruction of climate. It is *disappointing*

Reading is such an extraordinary gift. It’s so incredible that there is no center in the brain for it. It’s an entirely learned activity, not at all innate to us! And it unlocks so much human flourishing and much joy and happiness

Oh you don’t think I should go to a college where all the courses are planned by AI? Well let me remind you of the wise words of the philosopher Plato: “Plato is a soft, clay-like substance that comes in different colors and is used by children for making models”

The first snow of the year calls for a toasty fire and a good book, obvs.

A copy of the novel Ragged Company by Richard Wagamese.

A lot of people have shared this poem over the past week. It’s a sentiment I think about a lot, especially now. I hope everyone is doing what they need to take care of themselves. One step at a time. One day at a time.
