New cover reveal for The Story of CO2 Is the Story of Everything: How Carbon Dioxide Made Our World By: Peter Brannen. Available in July from ECCO Books. Thanks to AD Allison Saltzman.
I’m also excited to announce that this cover was included in the American Illustration archive earlier this year.

Let's hear it for the worms! 🙌🏽
It's the first #WormWednesday of the year and we're kicking it off right with one of our faves—acorn worms! Named for their acorn-shaped front end, enteropneusts are actually more closely related to humans than to worms. They have a rudimentary nerve cord that is similar to ours, and they breathe oxygen using structures similar to a fish's gills. Acorn worms are connected to us through the carbon cycle. They play a significant role in the redistribution of sediment and nutrients in deep-sea communities. Carbon dioxide from the atmosphere mixes into the ocean at the surface. Tiny plant-like plankton transform carbon dioxide into organic material and are then eaten by larger animals. As these animals eat, poop, and die, they create a flurry of organic material known as marine snow. The sinking snow moves nutrients and carbon all the way down to the deep seafloor, where bottom-dwelling animals, like acorn worms, enjoy a bountiful feast. This cycle is known as the biological pump. As they do their part to help regulate climate, we can do our part by drastically reducing our carbon dioxide emissions. The ocean is a powerful ally that has buffered us from the impacts of climate change—now it is our turn to act on climate change to safeguard the future of the ocean and its inhabitants.

new thing for new business cards: some lush future Africa, de colon1zed & self determined, where the great green wall has grown thick and steady & date palms & mango trees could maybe share canopies, adapting to the new weather patterns & all hope is not lost
(see more things from me via my newsletter, patreon, or bluesky)

The cracked surface you see here is dried mud from a lake that is steadily drying up. Once a thriving ecosystem filled with water and life, it's now a stark reminder of how environmental changes impact our natural landscapes. Each fracture in the mud tells a story of receding waters and an uncertain future for the flora and fauna that depend on it.

BREAKING NEWS
Thousands of corals, including some of the last known genotypes on the Florida Reef, have been relocated in a pair of rescue events organized by NOAA in response to record-breaking ocean temperatures in Florida Keys National Marine Sanctuary.

Surely it is time to look at real penalties for fossil fuel companies and politicians who fail to act on climate change. They have destroyed the birthright of future generations and caused so much misery already.

The Ministry for the Future by Kim Stanley Robinson. Orbit, 2021. 9780316300148. 576pp.
I've listened to a lot of economics podcasts over the last few years, so the bits of this book that fascinated me the most were the parts where the Ministry for the Future tries to get the world to fund and adopt a carbon coin, which gives ongoing value to sequestering carbon vs. putting it into the atmosphere where it will contribute to climate change. Lots of fascinating meetings in the book, plus politics. There's also a bit of terrorism and many, many climate refugees that need a place to live. At the center of it all is the head of the Ministry for the Future, who comes much more into focus as a character at the end of the book as she tours the world and considers it in light of how it is changing. It's a novel with some hope for the short-term future of our planet if humanity is willing to come together to do the necessary work around removing carbon from the atmosphere. It offers no simple solutions, but it does show a few possible places to start.
I was daunted by the size of this book but I shouldn't have been; once I started it I didn't want to put it down.

A healthy ocean is critical for all life on Earth. 🌏️
But to make predictions about the future of our ocean, scientists need to understand its biological and chemical cycles. That’s where MBARI’s Ocean Biogeochemical Sensing Team comes in. Led by marine chemist Yui Takeshita, this team is developing sensors that detect how climate change alters ocean chemistry.
Each year, the ocean absorbs 25 percent of the carbon dioxide emitted by human activities. It has buffered our planet from the worst effects of climate change but at a heavy cost. The ocean is becoming more acidic, creating a more stressful environment for marine life.
Scientists need new tools to better understand the ocean's changing chemistry. Yui’s team is developing and deploying autonomous robots to measure and monitor these changes.
They’re studying how ocean acidification affects ecosystems from the coast to the open sea. The team is sharing new sensor technologies with colleagues around the world to quickly scale our ability to observe the world ocean at this critical moment.
Learn more about the Ocean Biogeochemical Sensing team and their work on our website.
