2022 Week 15 Summary
*planted: 18/04/2022last tended: 18/04/2022
- A good chunk of my notes were climate change related.
- The People vs Climate Change, The Insect Crisis, People like wind power.
- I'm starting adding notes from day-job related readings to my digital garden. e.g. The era of fixing your own phone has nearly arrived.
- It's interesting to see some developments around manufacturers and the right to repair. Recent announcements from Samsung and Google on spare parts.
- There is mention of repair and reuse in the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report part 3. I feel happy that my day-job is in an area that is part of the picture of mitigation of climate breakdown.
- Despite what I'd read in previous summaries, there is more to the report than just "renewable energy, electric vehicles, low-carbon technology." Reducing consumer demand and changing industry practices is included for example.
- I liked learning about energy storage. It seems key to a green future.
- I liked learning about Climate Action Plan for Councils. I feel a local, municipal approach holds great promise for effecting change. It obviously needs to join to a national and global effort too.
- E's birthday was successfully orchestrated. We had a lovely weekend away in Ambleside.
- I'm still reading Cybernetic Revolutionaries. Need to type up some notes - maybe today.
