I saw a post about “Would you really be willing to give up AI? Could you really get thru your work day without AI?!” And I just thought, son, I’m older than Google. I’m schooled in the ancient ways of finding information. And frankly, I miss roaming the stacks.

🧵 This week I need to focus on my climate grief practice more than ever. Between the devastation in Nepal and the news about passing 1,5 C by 2030 (if not sooner, let's be honest, the UN lags), I am doing two things regularly:

Our world has been made so unkind and so cruel, it takes great strength and courage to be compassionate, thoughtful, and caring.

I’m trying to make money doing what I love so that I can have more time to do the other things I love. Maybe I should get a PhD 😂

I’m such a nerd, I had a dream that I bought 3 books on a topic I’m researching. They had beautiful covers. (Please note I’m rarely in a bookstore with books written in English, so this was a very exciting dream.)

The richest 1% produce more carbon pollution than the poorest 66% of humanity combined. Climate justice isn’t optional. It’s the only kind of climate action that actually works. #ClimateJustice #SystemChange

There’s so much climate doomsday news, what’s your favorite way to invite people to build something beautiful? How do you find joy in the work? How do you appreciate the little things and let them fuel you? Asking for the world.

Also, you’re not a hypocrite or complicit for being born in a system you didn’t create and not living “perfectly green.” If you’re *trying* to make the world better, you’re not complicit, you’re resisting.

We used to live slow lives. We can again. And the more I learn about climate and equity, it appears more and more to be a critical form of resistance and a key piece of a liveable, enjoyable future.

I speak English, Deutsch und a bissl Bayerish, mon français n'est pas mauvais, y aprendo español, pero la mujer was mad I didn’t speak her mother tongue. I don’t want to assume anything about why she was upset. But we’ll all have it easier if we are gentle with each other. 💖

Why must so many appliances and eletronics have the most obnoxious beeping? We are programming these things, if they must make noise, can’t it be a lovely noise?! Laundry, dishes, contactless payments—these are not emergencies yet they beep like 5 alarm fires. Enough.

The IMF says we pay $5T/year to subsidize fossil fuels — that's $13M per MINUTE to destroy our future. Meanwhile solar & wind fight for scraps. We don't have a funding problem. We have a priority problem.

Free Air Con: hang a wet towel in an open window. The towel cools the breeze (if there is one) as it enters. It’s past time for cities to plant trees and create green spaces equitably! (Also those green spaces should double as food forests.) #heatwave #airconditioning #aircon

Glass beverage bottles used to be returned, sterilised, and refilled hundreds of times before needing to be made into a new glass bottle. A few nations continue this success despite beverage companies lobbying against it. We must bring back the glass bottle as standard. #plasticfreejuly

"Farmers are always getting screwed, whether it's wheat or seaweed." This is why I'm creating both a nonprofit guide and a grassroots community guide that provide a holistic approach to restorative ocean communities; not just an ocean farm, a local network of resilience!

Happy World Orca Day! (belated, it was yesterday). I discovered embroidery and am having so much fun. I was trying cross-stitch, but found it easier to think of the thread as lines, like drawing. So I'm free-handing it all. #oceanart #marineart #orca #whales #embroidery

What Does the Ocean Want Us to Grow? was my most popular #LCAW2026 webinar. I didn't answer the question; I helped build everyone's capacity to answer it for themselves because the only correct answers are place-based. New post on ecologies of scale v economies of scale. link in comments.

My talk "What Does the Ocean Want Us to Grow?" at #LCAW is almost at capacity. I am so moved that people are hungry for this type of question, this type of tangible, systemic change that restores ecosystems and local culture. .. #UKsustainability #oceanart #marineart #biodiversity
watercolour diagram of a restorative ocean farm, which is a polyculture underwater garden growing mussels, oysters, clams, scallops, and seaweeds; bubbles show benefits to ecosystem, including water quality and biodiveristy increases with cute fish, a leopard shark, a crab, etc., swimming about; bubbles above land show cross-ecosystem benefits, like feeding seaweed to cows to reduce methane and community programs like food festivals and school field trips.

The Balearic Islands will require all boat rentals to be 100% electric by 2030 as part of their climate efforts. I can't wait to get an outboard like this one for my own tender! I saw 3 companies offering electric outboards at this event in Portugal.

Women don't need empowerment; we are already powerful. But we breathe differently together. The qualities society labels feminine and therefore dismisses (care, empathy, compassion, connection) are sophisticated leadership capacities that need room to breathe and I'm making that room at #LCAW2026
