The Anthropocene Mass Extinction: A World Unraveling at Human Hands
The sixth mass extinction might be unfolding right now, and it is unlike any in Earth’s history. It is not the result of natural disasters or cosmic collisio...YouTube
Global warming has accelerated.
That simple, straightforward statement — easily confirmed with an unbiased look at the data — draws strong reactions and even condemnation in corporate media from representatives of the mainstream scientific establishment.
Billionaire CEOs of major multinational corporations and the politicians they own are fully invested in the continuation of neoliberal capitalism, in forging ahead with Business As Usual.
They don’t want anything to upset that. So they will make sure that the news you see backs up their contention that everything is fine.
But everything is not fine.

Es evidente que esto no es un problema de etiquetas.
Yo creo que si @mdt y @lcrmx nos dicen si se creen inmortales, cuál es la razón de su existencia, y en qué basan estas creencias… Y nos explican que lo que está pasando en el mundo no es suicidio colectivo, se aclarará todo.
Lo de @JesusEstrada no es una creencia, es conocimiento muy bien fundado.

Bueno, le podemos dar a esa etiqueta un nuevo sentido provisional:
Presentar algo muy importante que no se debe limitar en su difusión. Ya que tú no estás reenviando, verdad?
Puedes decirnos por qué no reenvías?
Prefieres entrar en el Infierno hasta la muerte a saber esto, y que se sepa?

Disculpad la brusquedad anterior. Es muy difícil encontrar el enfoque positivo a esto. Pero ahí está, en lo positivo. 35 años buscado el Rescate.

In images shared on social media, #Kennedy can be seen getting fully underwater, including his head, and then splashing around with several of his grandchildren. Kennedy, who does not have any background in #medicine or #science, was a long-time anti-vaccine advocate before President #Trump appointed him to be #health secretary.

Germ-theory skeptic RFK Jr. goes swimming in sewage-tainted water
The National Park Services bars all swimming and wading due to the health hazard.Beth Mole (Ars Technica)
Happy birthday to Dr. Cecilia Payne! Her 1925 PhD thesis has been described as “the most brilliant ever written in astronomy.”
At a time when few women entered academia, Payne discovered what the universe is made of. Her work began a revolution in astrophysics & more should know her name. #science #history
M1: The Incredible Expanding Crab
apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2505/…
Cataloged as M1, the Crab Nebula is the first on Charles Messier's famous list of things which are not comets. In fact, the Crab Nebula is now known to be a supernova remnant, an expanding cloud of debris from the death explosion of a massive star. The violent birth of the Crab was witnessed by astronomers in the year 1054. Roughly 10 light-years across, the nebula is still expanding at a rate of about 1,500 kilometers per second. You can see the expansion by comparing these sharp images from the Hubble Space Telescope and James Webb Space Telescope. The Crab's dynamic, fragmented filaments were captured in visible light by Hubble in 2005 and Webb in infrared light in 2023. This cosmic crustacean lies about 6,500 light-years away in the constellation Taurus.

Female bonobos find strength in numbers, teaming up to fend off males in the wild, a new study finds.

Bonobos in Congo form girl groups to fend off male aggression, study says
A new study shows female bonobos team up to fend off males in the wild. Scientists have long wondered why bonobos live in generally female-dominated societies since the males are physically bigger and stronger.Adithi Ramakrishnan (AP News)
There are currently over 8 billion people on Earth. Yes, that’s a lot BUT there are about 1.4 billion insects for every human. Combined, they weigh about 70x more than all of us.
And insects have been around for over 350 million years. That's longer than the dinosaurs. Modern humans only showed up between 200-300,000 years ago.
We need insects to survive. They don't need us. This is their world. #science #history
Asteroid Donaldjohanson
apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/2504/…
Main belt asteroid 52246 Donaldjohanson is about 8 kilometers long and 3.5 kilometers across. On April 20, this sharp close-up of the asteroid was captured at a distance of about 1100 kilometers by the Lucy spacecraft's long range camera during its second asteroid encounter. Named after American paleoanthropologist Donald Johanson, discoverer of the Lucy hominid fossil, the elongated asteroid was likely formed about 150 million years ago from a gentle collision of two smaller bodies creating its characteristic contact binary shape. Launched in October of 2021, the Lucy spacecraft will continue its travels through the main asteroid belt in 2025, but is on its way to explore Jupiter's swarm of Trojan asteroids. Lucy is expected to encounter its first Trojan asteroid target, 3548 Eurybates, in August 2027.
