Ecologist speaking calmly: if you pump groundwater from a drinking water aquifer for cooling data center shit and it evaporates, becomes a cloud, drifts away, and rains into the sea, you have in effect USED UP WATER. Begging everyone to learn the water cycle taught in 7th grade.
Shorter: itβs not funny when thereβs no more water to irrigate food crops and yes they are mining water for AI and itβs a huge fucking problem. Learn some basics.
This is such an irresponsible soft-racist headline.
Hamster ovary cell lines are how labs all over the world make proteins. I repeat: they are universally used. They were developed in a Boston lab in 1957.
Please STOP implying that the Chinese do weird things with animals
I didnβt survive cancer, a terrorist bombing, and malaria to die for Wall St.
Iβm a 60 year old single mom with a history of recurrent pneumonia putting two kids through college on my own with more books to write and more #fracking to ban.

Hey, grown-ups. Children are tweeting under #IfIDieInASchoolShooting. Take a look.
Some want their bodies dropped off @NRA headquarters. Many want their deaths politicized. They have eulogy suggestions and funeral preferences.
Children in America.
Ok @nytimes, I ran around correcting a bunch of racists inspired by your clickbait headline and now have to go back to work on my grant proposal. For the last time: HAMSTER OVARY CELL LINES USED TO MAKE PROTEINS WERE DEVELOPED IN THE UNITED STATES IN 1957
Me unconscious and attended to by paramedics, Univ Michigan, 10/6/88, at a student protest protesting the new policy restricting protests. Technically I was not protesting; I was reporting on the protests for @michigandaily. The cop in the sunglasses did that to me. And others.
UPDATE: I just got out of jail and this is my testimony:
Women are 14X more likely than men to be killed by climate disasters and those that live are far more likely to be forced into caregiving roles as a result. The climate crisis is a feminist issue.
BREAKING: Dozens of feminists arrested outside @Citi CEO Jane Fraser's home in Manhattan.
Fraser is torching our planet. We fight for liberation. We fight to live.
UPDATE: They came for the scientists first.
This is my testimony: Science shows catastrophic harm from the burning of fossil fuels and @Citibank is fossil fuelβs biggest financier. Failure to act on science = moral injury.
Just got out of jail. Power to the people.
Breaking: faith leaders, scientists, youth activists & orcas unite to demand that @Citi stop financing fossil fuel expansion & the genocide in Gaza.
For an hour, nearly 1,000+ bankers were unable to get into the HQ.π§΅
βA 63-yo climate activist and professional cellist faces up to seven years in prison after being arrested Thursday while performing a Bach solo outside the headquarters of one of the worldβs largest fossil fuel financier Citibank in downtown NYC.β
Good morning. I am an adoptee who had an abortion.
I am an adoptee whose adoptive mother had an abortion.
I am an adoptee whose adoptive sister had an abortion.
And none of that computes for you itβs because you actually donβt know anything about adoption and donβt listen.
If you donβt know what AMOC is or why its collapse would be a civilization-threatening event or what the latest scientific headlines say about AMOC, please consider this image of a scientist, held in a pain-submission grip, from a teach-in and peaceful protest yesterday Denmark.
