/[ Water everywhere, but never a drop to drink ]/
*Saltwater in the Mississippi Threatens Water Supply in New Orleans *
Extreme heat and low rainfall in the Midwest this summer caused the 
river level to plummet, making it vulnerable to a saltwater “wedge” from 
the Gulf of Mexico.

*What Have We Learned From a Summer of Climate Reckoning?*
New York Times Podcasts
Sep 5, 2023  The Ezra Klein Show
This summer has been a parade of broken climate records. June was the 
hottest June and July was not just the hottest July but the hottest 
month ever on record. At the same time, it looks like we are at the 
start of a green revolution: Decarbonization efforts have gone far 
better than what many had hoped for just a few years ago, and renewable 
energy is getting cheaper.

How should we make sense of these seemingly mixed signals? What does it 
mean to hold the pessimism of climate disaster and the optimism of 
climate action together?

There are few individuals better suited to navigate these questions than 
Kate Marvel, a senior climate scientist at Project Drawdown. In a 
conversation with guest host David Wallace-Wells, Marvel explores 
whether climate change is “accelerating,” why reducing air pollution 
will lead to more warming before it leads to less; how the human 
response to a changing climate can be more unpredictable than the 
climate itself; how witch burnings increased during the last major 
change in climate; what the relationship is between hotter weather and 
social unrest; how decarbonization sets us on track to avoiding the 
worst-case climate models; why, despite all the challenges ahead, there 
are still immeasurable benefits to fighting for a cleaner planet and 
much more.

This episode was hosted by David Wallace-Wells, a writer at The New York 
Times Magazine and the author of “The Uninhabitable Earth: Life After 
Warming...

In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I examine the 
causes and destruction of our current industrialized food system. 
Specifically, I dive into the capitalist commodification of food, and 
how most of the industrialized farming that takes place in the imperial 
core doesn't produce crops for our consumption. Instead, the majority of 
the "food" we grow goes toward animal feed and biofuels. In addition, 
the fertilizers, pesticides, and herbicides that our current 
industrialized farming system gobbles up are derived from fossil fuels. 
Essentially, fossil fuel corporations are laundering their dirty fuels 
through the very chemicals farmers use to grow their crops. Our food 
system is broken. We're in desperate need of a new agro-ecological 
revolution.

*Are Men Killing the Planet?*
Our Changing Climate
Aug 25, 2023  #patriarchy #feminism #climatechange
In this Our Changing Climate climate change video essay, I explore how 
patriarchy destroy the planet and drives climate change. Specifically, I 
look at how threads of patriarchal masculinities, like petromasculinity 
and ecomodern masculinity are wielded and pervade responses to the 
climate crisis. These patriarchal responses to climate change not only 
obstruct needed action, but they have devasting consequences for gender 
liberation and environmental health.

*On Exactitude in Science*
Jorge Luis Borges, Collected Fictions, translated by Andrew Hurley.

     …In that Empire, the Art of Cartography attained such Perfection 
that the map of a
     single Province occupied the entirety of a City, and the map of the 
Empire, the entirety
     of a Province. In time, those Unconscionable Maps no longer 
satisfied, and the
     Cartographers Guilds struck a Map of the Empire whose size was that 
of the Empire, and
     which coincided point for point with it. The following Generations, 
who were not so
     fond of the Study of Cartography as their Forebears had been, saw 
that that vast Map
     was Useless, and not without some Pitilessness was it, that they 
delivered it up to the
     Inclemencies of Sun and Winters. In the Deserts of the West, still 
today, there are
     Tattered Ruins of that Map, inhabited by Animals and Beggars; in 
all the Land there is
     no other Relic of the Disciplines of Geography.

—Suarez Miranda,Viajes devarones prudentes, Libro IV,Cap. XLV, Lerida, 1658
