"We're increasingly at risk of going over the carbon budget and the temperature limit. We need extra efforts to reach net-negative emissions and bring down global warming," says PIK director Ottmar #Edenhofer, Chair of the European Scientific Advisory Board on Climate Change, presenting the Board’s latest recommendations on carbon dioxide removals #CDR to the European Parliament’s ENVI Committee.

#EU exploring weaker 2040 climate goal

The European Commission wants to keep a 90 percent #emissions-cutting target but to change how countries calculate their progress.

The options being discussed range from allowing countries to defer steeper cuts to letting them count carbon reductions they pay for in other countries. Another idea would be to lean more on carbon that forests or technology can remove from the air."

POLITICO · EU exploring weaker 2040 climate goalBy Karl Mathiesen

I don’t usually share this disability attorney’s content because he’s a Floriduh man, but this one is interesting.

Even the first AI method he’s talking about would have led to me being denied. And ALJ in my appeal hearing called me out because of the language in my pain management records.

Do you know how they write that little blurb at the beginning of every visit that says something like “patient presented well orientated, dressed appropriately, able to follow along with care instructions, blah blah blah” that type of thing?

My pain management records always started like that literally copied and pasted from every visit, and in their blurb they mentioned that I can pay attention.

So the judge tried to tell me that I’m lying about troubles with ADHD because pain management said I could pay attention. Luckily they literally copied and pasted that first paragraph in every visit for two years so I could point out that that was just “copy pasta” and I could also explain that pain management never evaluated my attention span, they’ve never done any test to evaluate my attention because they are pain management.

But if AI saw that I might be kicked off disability.

By the way some of this stuff was implemented a couple years ago during the last administration. But I know none of you wanna hear about that.

You are doing good work. Lets add some hash tags so folks will find the message.

Some people say, "Alongside rapid and drastic decarbonization, carbon dioxide removal (CDR) will be needed to meet climate goals."

I say no! Unless we decarbonize drastically, CDR will be useless.

So we say,

"AFTER rapid and drastic decarbonization, CDR will be needed to meet climate goals."
