Fences dub ecological winners and losers, shape ecosystems
https://www.anthropocenemagazine.org/...e-sun-but-still-dont-understand-their-effects-here-on-earth/


In a recent paper in BioScience, a group of experts argues that it’s time for conservationists to start seriously investigating the many ways in which fences shape ecosystems— so that we can make better decisions about where (and whether) to build them. By analyzing hundreds of previous studies, they hope to lay a framework for this area of study, which they and others call “fence ecology.”

Although fences are “often framed as a management tool,” the authors write, they are actually “a globally significant ecological feature.” If you put the world’s fences end to end, they would stretch at least as far as the distance between the Earth and the sun—much farther than the length of the world’s combined roads. And “they’re proliferating very rapidly,” with new fences added much more frequently than old ones deteriorate or are taken down,

"Most of the time, fences produce more losers than winners,” Dr. McInturff says. Often, these winners are generalists that can handle disturbed areas—in other words, the same ones that survive other types of habitat disruption. More sensitive species tend to lose out. In some cases, fences curtail so many different species that whole ecosystems begin to collapse.

Alarm as Arctic sea ice not yet freezing at latest date on record | Arctic | The Guardian
https://amp.theguardian.com/.../22/alarm-as-arctic-sea-ice-not-yet-freezing-at-latest-date-on-record

For the first time since records began, the main nursery of Arctic sea ice in Siberia has yet to start freezing in late October.

The delayed annual freeze in the Laptev Sea has been caused by freakishly protracted warmth in northern Russia and the intrusion of Atlantic waters, say climate scientists who warn of possible knock-on effects across the polar region.

Ocean temperatures in the area recently climbed to more than 5C above average, following a record breaking heatwave and the unusually early decline of last winter’s sea ice.

The trapped heat takes a long time to dissipate into the atmosphere, even at this time of the year when the sun creeps above the horizon for little more than an hour or two each day.

Geothermal energy is poised for a breakout - Vox
https://www.vox.com/...ronment/2020/10/21/21515461/renewable-energy-geothermal-egs-ags-supercritical

After many years of failure to launch, new companies and technologies have brought geothermal out of its doldrums, to the point that it may finally be ready to scale up and become a major player in clean energy. In fact, if its more enthusiastic backers are correct, geothermal may hold the key to making 100 percent clean electricity available to everyone in the world. And as a bonus, it’s an opportunity for the struggling oil and gas industry to put its capital and skills to work on something that won’t degrade the planet

Destination Earth (DestinE) | Shaping Europe’s digital future
https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-market/en/destination-earth-destine

The objective of the Destination Earth initiative is to develop a very high precision digital model of the Earth to monitor and simulate natural and human activity, and to develop and test scenarios that would enable more sustainable development and support European environmental policies.
..
Users of DestinE will be able to access vast amounts of natural and socio-economic information in order to:

continuously monitor the health of the planet (e.g. to study the effects of climate change, the state of the oceans, the cryosphere, biodiversity, land use, and natural resources)

perform high precision, dynamic simulations of the Earth’s natural systems (focusing on thematic domains, e.g. marine, land, coasts, atmosphere)

improve modelling and predictive capacities (e.g. to help anticipate and plan measures in case of hurricanes and other extreme weather events and natural disasters, and contribute to analysing events with a major socio-economic impact)

support EU policy-making and implementation (e.g. to assess the impact and efficiency of environmental policy and relevant legislative measures)

reinforce Europe’s industrial and technological capabilities in simulation, modelling, predictive data analytics and artificial intelligence (AI), as well as high performance computing.

2015 Gods of the Anthropocene: geo-spiritual formations in the Earth’s new epoch
https://www.academia.edu/..._geo_spiritual_formations_in_the_Earth_s_new_epoch?email_work_card=title

In this paper I argue that we need not only to ‘decolonise’ the Anthropocene but also to ‘desecularise’ it – to be aware that in the new age of the Earth we may be coeval with gods and spirits. Drawing particularly on the work of Giles Deleuze, Felix Guattari and Georges Bataille, and using concepts from both thermodynamics and fluid dynamics, I start to develop an interdisciplinary theory of planetary spirit, and use this to speak of both the ‘laminar’ high gods of time that are being invoked to summon the story of Earth’s ongoing transformation into a canonical mythos, and the turbulent lower spirits of place which manifest particular, situated dynamics on an Earth crossed by interlocking gradients and flows of energy, value, power and entropy. I suggest that what might once have been distinct territorialised ‘cultures’ or ‘natures’ in which humans engaged in particular situated patterns of interaction with animals, spirits and other beings are increasingly being convened into a global multinatural system, what we might call a ‘combined and uneven geo-spiritual formation’. Keywords: Anthropocene, religion, gods, spirits, thermodynamics, semiotics

How China could be carbon neutral by 2060
When Chinese President Xi Jinping announced his country’s ambitious target to become carbon neutral before 2060, it came as a surprise even to many in China. It’s the country’s first long-term climate goal, and will require China to rein in CO2, and probably other greenhouse-gas emissions, to net zero. Several influential research groups that work closely with the government tell Nature how China might get there via cleaner power, carbon-capture technologies and carbon offsetting.
