Some thoughts, if you care about Alberta's place in Canada... @acoyne's column nailed it: theglobeandmail.com/opinion/… Some choice quotes:

Opinion: Alberta’s separatists lost badly. Danielle Smith might have lost even worse

Without a referendum to galvanize it, the secessionist movement might wither. Now, it will take aim at control over the UCP

Proud of the @UChicago undergrads who designed and built PASCAL, an instrument to measure stratospheric aerosols, and got it flying on @NASA’s HASP balloon at 37 km. The flight was cut short, but it opens a pathway to a new way to measure them. climateengineering.uchicago.…

Today I’m in Reykjavík for a major meeting on climate stabilization (aka geoengineering). After almost 40 years working on these topics, it’s a thrill to see so many new faces and new ideas. globalstabilization.org/

After a career spent almost entirely on climate, I’m excited to work on reducing the risk of nuclear war. This week in Ottawa we’re convening a wide range of activists on nuclear security and disarmament, hoping to help accelerate their work in Canada. 2/3

My wife, Kirsten Anderson, and I are finally getting organized about giving away the money we made when Carbon Engineering was sold. Our platform is Luminen, Finnish for snow-covered, after our love of the cold outdoors. Learn more: luminen.ca/ 1/3
